Tinned Goods For All Our Needs
By EDWARD C. GAYLER
་
BRITAIN'S tradò in canned goods is likely to become one of our most important industries as an outcome of the war. The canning industry, still in, its infancy in the last war, now supplies a largo proportion of our food requirements,
In fact, we could live entirely on tinned products.

... During the past winter our home production and consumption of tinned vegetables rose by 50 per cent. Lord Woolton, the Food Minister, has appealed to the canners to Haiphong find a way of preserving more green vegetables. In consequence, British canners are making plans to expand their vegetable packing by 100 per cent.
This country already takes some 78 per cent. of the total volume of tinned goods coming en to the world market. In the home industry about £5,000,000 of tin and £60,000,000 of fruit and vegetables are used annually.
From Strawberries To Broad
There are over 350 varieties of tinned goods available to the housewife, varying from such delicacies as strawberries to staple commodities like bread.
When canning was first started in this country on a commercial scale by Mr. Samuel W. Smedley in 1923, the object was to make use of our surplus of fruit. Now the Smedley factories have their own fruit and vegetable farms. The acreage given over to certain vegetables for the Smedley factories is being doubled this year.

Langer Hours In Mines
The Government's new war plans for the coal industry are practically completed and more than 60,000 men are wanted immediately to speed-up coal production (writes the Political Correspondent).
Many men who used to be coal miners, but are now in other work, are to be reabsorbed in the industry. Mining, for the present, is likely to completely reserved occupation,
