Canning frCsh fruh' and xgvtables is. perhaps, one f th, greatest of all the conservation in dustries. It is an induntry wherel v millions of bushols of perishable pro ducts are preserved for out of sea son use and furnished to the peoph of all lands at reasonable pgees an.! readv for instant consumption. Notwithstanding the benefits of th great industry to all the people, and the deliciousness of the canned prou ucts. there is considerable prejudici against canned or turned food piod ucts. The leaders of the industry havt long recognised this prejudice an i they now' propose to remove the perju dice by a thoiough national inspection and a campaign of education. The movement has its inception with of ficers of the National Tanners as sociation and will be carried out in the states w here the state eanners associations decide in the campaign which it is planned to extend over i term of years. Last Saturday aft rnoon the eanners of Utah, at the meeting held at the Hotel Utah, Salt Lake City, had this plan of inspection and education presented to them and by vote decided to take part in the movement. There difference of opinion as to how far the certificate of inspection should go, but there was no opposition as to the proposition of federal inspection or the campaign of education. The proposition was presented by Frank Gerber, president; Walter J. and Frank E. Sears, Gorrell, secretary, of the national association. The proposition, as presented, provides for a system of sanitary inspection under the direction of the national association embracing certain requirements in food, factory specifications and process of canning. While canning processes have been in use for the past 100 years, it was not until 1895 that the method began to be very well known or extensively used, Mr. Scars stated. He 'said that the first canning was done in 1819 by Israh Daggett at New York, when he discovered that fish could be kept for an almost indefinite length of time In sealed jars by a certain method of cooking. Daggett did not know why the fish would remain unspoiled, and it was not until seventy-fou- r years later that any real scientific knowledge was to be had on the subject, and the people discovered that the cooking destroyed the decomposing bacteria. With the headquarters of the national association at Washington D. C., the work of perfecting sanitary meth ods haS been carried out extensively in a finely equipped laboratory under the direction of W. D. Biglow, who, until he became connected with the association, was head of the chemistry department of Harvard. At present Dr. M. J.

In preparing this report, which follows the same form has been used as in previous jears, the first portion a condensed statement of all rebeing and disbursements, followed by ceipts a statement of the net expenditures for maintenance, operation and permanent improvement and then a segregation of the gross expenditures. Reference to this statement shows that the company received from the sale of treasury stock during the year the sum of 537,078.62 and from assessment the sum of 835,183.96, a total of $72,262.58. This money was expended for maintenance and operation of the systepi, for improvement and in reducing the outstanding indebtedness of the company in about the following i'To er Sep-umb- proportions: 1.

It also includes all ualaties for superintendent, ditch rulers, guards at dam, and the compensation of the secretary and directors. In this connection the secretary invites attention to the fact that the management of the company, the board of directors are required to spend a very considerable amount of time, not so much in the attendance of directors meetings as in committee work and that for this service the sum of only$X40 00 was paid during the year to the seven directors. The annual amount paid for maintenance and operation of the system waa leas than the amount paid for bond interest and principal and amounts to but $L34 per share. It is, therefore, the necessity, for making enlargements and improvements to the canal system including the lining with concrete of portions of the canal to avoid great seepage resulting in loss of water and damage to land and for Increasing the capacity that requires considerable expenditure of money. The increased cost of labor and material has also added considerable to the cost of operating and improving the canal system. co--- act? !(! con-ad- ei "Respectfully submitted, "ROBERT C.
