The start of the First World War focused society's attention on the
limits of the public food supply and the need for food conservation
to support the war-effort. Housewives of all classes, even those
with little or no agricultural experience, were called upon to
start Victory Gardens. With this call came the question of how to
preserve these garden products for use throughout the year. In
response, the art of canning and preserving once again came into
vogue. To aid housewives with no prior experience in this area,
Mary Catherine Hughes published this 1918 work, which provides
clear instructions and recipes for canning and preserving using the
simplified cold-pack method.
