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. Spread evenly in a shal
low pan which has been well oiled
and dusted with flour. Bake '20
minutes in a slow oven. Cut in
strips when cool and roll in sifted
confectioner's sugar.
DATE TORTE
One-half cup flour, U teaspoon
salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 2
eggs, h cup sugar, teaspoon van
illa, 1 cup chopped nut meats, 2
cups pitted and sliced dates.
Mix and sift flour, salt and bak
ing powder. Beat eggs until light,
beating In sugar gradually. Add
vanilla, dates and nuts and sift
over dry mixture. Fold lightly to
mix thoroughly. 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.
DATE COOKIES
Two cups flour, 2 teaspoons bak
ing powder, ',6 teaspoon salt, 1 cup
liced dates, cup shortening, two-
thirds cup sugar, 1 egg, U cup milk,
teaspoon vanilla.
Mix and sift flour, salt and baking
powder. Mix dates with dry mix
ture. Cream shortening and slowly
add sugar, beating until creamy.
Add egg unbeaten and mix well.
Add milk and vanilla and then add
dry ingredients. Drop by teaspoon-
fuls on the reverse side of a well
oiled and floured dripping pan and
bake in a moderate oven (375 de
grees F.) until firm to the touch
and a delicate brown in color.

tine. You simply give it mixed with milk (cither hot
or cold) and children love it for its delicious taste.
