CANNING IN BRITAIN.
There are now 60 factories in the young British canning industry. They are receiving immense help from the research station a t Chipping Campden Gloucestershire, which is allied to Bristol University. More and more cans of British-grown fruit, vegetables, and meat products are going abroad, even to India and Africa. British strawberries have become increasingly popular in foreign markets. Singapore, source for so long of Britain’s supplies of pineapple-in-tins, now takes big quantities of green peas. The National mark helps the industry to compete with specialised foreign products. Great is the rejoicing in the Welsh tinplate industry. One of the works is making 100,000,000 cans a year, and these need 3000 boxes of tinplate.
