  • Repeating Arras Co., New Haven, Connecticut, September 16, 1919. Kephart, Horace to Albert Britt, Editor (OUTING, New York), Bryson City, N. C, Novembe: 23, 1919. "I am delighted to get in touch with someone who knows all ebout the recent progress in dehydrating food stuffs, concerning which I have read a goo< deal in the papers and magazines. If you will send a member of the 0UTI1C staff to see Mrs. Andrea's exhibit, and talk with her, I will be very much interested in the report. "I have had a little experience with dehydrated fruits and vegetables that '. got several years ago from camp outfitters in New York. Some of them worked very well, others were not satisfactory, particularly the potatoes. We campers and travelers need such things when we go far from supply posts and have to travel light. "But what we need worse, and would use much more of, is dehydrated meats (beef especially), if they can be produced in wholesome and palatable form. Generally the only meat we have been able to carry along has been bacon or salt pork. So, whenever we failed to get game or catch fish, we had almost no protein in our diet except that of beans or peas. Dehydrated beef would be a godsend. We used to "jerk" venison, if out for a long time, when we got into i deer country; but you can't buy such a thing in advance. "I want to learn where the best grades of dehydrated foods, of all sorts, a be procured, get price-lists and recipes, order a selection of the articles, tj them myself, and then write them up in OUTING or ALL OUTDOORS." little, L.
