THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1935 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON 11 UilillM7(ffl(EII3 DISCOVERY OF CANNED MILK INTERESTING Half a century ago the world was very young. The great Pasteur was atruggllng then to convince scien tists that he had discovered how we could protect ourselves against the invisible armies which In so many ways had Invaded the fort ress of health and taken heavy toll of human life. In . that day a farmer In tile vi cinity "of St. Louis, turning from his plow, took up the study of jrlencc and found the way to pro ject the most important item of all our food from these invisible enemies. The Pasteur theories were thus proved in practice in this community before they were gen ernliv accepted in the world of science. On February 15. 1885. Pet Milk company was founded at Highland. Illinois. A chemist from Switzer land had the idea that milk could be kept in cans as fruit was kept. But milk turned out to be a dif ferent problem. After a year of effort, the enterprise was about to fail. Then Louis Latzer. a farmer 37 years of age, went into the little plant to see what was the matter His first discovery was that he needed to know something of chem istry and biology before he could make much progress. Fitting up a small laboratory In the little county town and secur ing the services of a retired uni versity professor as tutor, Latzer took up the task of solving the many problems and difficulties. Lit tle was known then of the chem istry of milk. Even less was known about the biology which was in volved. There were no trained men to assist in the work. There was no machinery In existence with which to perform the processes. But one by one the problems were solv ed and the difficulties overcome The way was found to take pure, fresh milk, concentrate It by remov ing part of the water, put it in sealed cans and sterilize It so that it would keep fresh and sweet in definitely Prom this activity came the founding of a new industry. A few hundred cases of evaporated milk were made in Highland, Illinois, in 1885. Prom that start evaporated milk has grown in sales to be the largest single selling article sold by the American grocers today. 40.100, 000 cases were made In the United States in 1934. The one small plant of Pet Milk company in 1885 has expanded from coast to coast to over 30 plants. Each of the pres ent condenserles produces more Pet Milk In a day than the first plant could make In a year. There are additional plants in Holland. France and Germany. Dates In Spring Menus Inexpensive And Nutritious By ROVENA EYRE In the spring, or so we ve been told, a young man s thoughts turn to dates. Not the sort of dates you're thinking of, though. But the sort that are a fine natural spring Ionic, a regular molasses ana sulphur substitute. And what's more, dates are at their lowest price in 25 years! Plan to use dates in the preparation of your meals. They're excellent and nutricious when cook ed with cereal. When stuffed with nuts thry become superb confec tion. Spiced date bars are good nt tea-time or with a fruit' compote for luncheon. Try these date re cipes and watch your family ask for an encore! SPICED DATE BARS Three-fourths cup flour, tea spoon baking powder, teaspoon salt, 2 eggs, 1 cup brown sugar, H cup chopped nut meats, 1 cup pit ted and sliced dates, !i teaspoon cinnamon. U teaspoon cloves. Mix and sift baking powder, flour, spices and salt. Mix dates and nuts with flour. Beat eggs until light, beating in sugar. Stir in dry mixture.

Turn into a shal low pan which has been lined with waxed paper and wen oiled. Bake In a slow oven (300 to 325 degrees F. for one hour. Cut in squares when cool and serve with whipped cream or a small ball of vanilla ice cream. I've found that dates add Just enough sweetness to fruit cups. Mix long enough ahead of serving time to permit the flavors to blend well Allow two-quartered dates for each serving and don't use sugar. An es pecially good mixture combines grapefruit, pineapple, seeded grapes and dates. A good date salad is made of sliced pineapple, segments of grape fruit and pitted dates stuffed with cream cheese and mayonnaise.
