Garbage is considered only as food wastes, which includes unwashed cans and bottles in which some of our pre- sent day foods are received. As an aid to sanitation, it is wise to wrap all wet garbage in paper be- fore depositing in the can, The paper helps to absorb exces moisture, and eliminates odor and curtails rust.
