Haskin [Continued From Kditorial Pago] marked catlned. Then came ma chinery which gradually eliminated the crudities of the old system, so that canned corn became fresher than that purchased in the raw form, and canned milk a great deal cleaner than the average supply delivered in the city. But the canners soon found that they still had to do battle with the ancient prejudice against canned goods, being placed in the annoying position of having to defend a can ned commodity that was cleaner than the original product. As a result, the National Canners' Laboratory was established in Washington, which, acting in co-operation with the Bu reau of Chemistry of the Department of Agriculture, was to make experi ments and tests toward the highest possible standard of canned goods. At present experiments are being made toward perfecting the canned goods container, which is a very im portant factor in the preservation of the food. At one time the canners lost a good deal of money by reason of the fact that certain fruits and veg etables which theq put up, such as cherries, plums, berries, pumpkin and hominy, contained acid's which had a chemical effect on tin injurious to the poods and not precisely wholesome for the consumer. Then It was discov ered that by giving the can an inside coating or lacquering, baked into the tin from which it was made or sprayed inside the finished can, the quality and purity of the food were preserved. AVhlle these enamel-lined containers, and the can with the plain top crimped on without the use of solder, are great improvements over the old varieties, the latest combinations of maximum ef ficiency and minimum price still fail to satisfy the laboratory chemists, who arc now engaged In working out an even better product. Besides experimenting with the con tainer. the laboratory makes many scientific tests of the foodstuffs, offer ing occasional suggestions to the can ners as to how they might improve their output. If a packer finds that a quantity of bis recently canned to matoes are for some reason spoiling,, he ships a case to the laboratory, which makes a chemical analysis of the product. Within 24 hours the can ners receives an explanation of the difficulty and the scientific remedy. \ Want Amateur Scores Immediately After Game Managers of amateur and semi professional baseball teams are re quested to send full box scores to the office of the Telegraph Imme diately after the games.

The presence of Manager Cockill on the coaching line, in the opinion of the fans, would have helped some. Every inning was fast, with brilliant j lleltiing. Sensational plays were made i by both teams. Tom Voltss made his lirst appearance as a llurrisburg] pitcher and hud the goods. His oppo- | nent was McCoy, si speedy youngster. ; The local twirlers had it all over Lan caster's mound artist. It was a scrappy game. Umpire Murphy's decisions were questioned and when he called a i lurrisburg man ' safe at third Jimmy Sheckard, man- ; ager of the Lancaster team, told the "unap" a few tilings. Sheckard was! fined $5 and when he became abusive j was ordered off the field. Hnirishtirg Runs Earned Harrlsburg's two runs in the second inning were earned. A liniely clash by Euker, with men on bases, and hits by Yoxtheimer and Bozinsky brought the answer. Wild pitches and errors figured in Lancaster's runs. The score: HARRISBURG AB. R. H. O. A. E.

The crowd was small, but every fan was on the job until the tlnish. One thing must not be overlooked, fjocal patrons look for International l.eague class from State league young sters. The teams are all made up of fast material. It is far from being amateurish. Down at York some of the papers are knocking the league game. They are getting baseball without any cost to local capitalists. It is a good game the York team is playing. Perhaps it is that old-time feeling against George Washington Heckert that has cropped out. York supporters should know better. Heckert is only acting as agent for the club owners. Harrisburg lost yesterday. It was a close game. Fielding was faßt and at times sensational, but the Cockill play ers were slow on bases. The new pitcher. Tom Voltz, made good. These weak spots will be overcome in time. Give the boys a chance. It is certain that Harrisburg cannot have Inter national League baseball an d fans should help the game by boosting the Pennsylvania State League. Harrisburg will be away from home two days next week. Monday and Tues day, when the team plays at I>ancas ter. Reading will be the attraction at .Island Park Wednesday and Thursday, and Shamokin Friday and Saturday. Manager George Cockill is busy with major league managers and expects new men here next week. The team is lacking in pitchers. Another week will bring better work in the field. Leo Groome, president and owner of the Harrisburg State League club, promises local fans good baseball. As has been stated, the entire responsi- I bility of the league has been on his shoulders and he has been a. busy man. Fast baseball is his hobby and he joins !
