Remarks. 



The carrots require too much at- 

 tention, and therefore not fit 

 for sea service as rations. 



The dried potatoes excellent: 

 may be easily used as salad or 

 in imitation of cucumber. The 

 seamen did not take to them, 

 because they require more time 

 and attention than Edwards's 

 potato. 



Very good, particularly for in- 

 valids ; requires to be kept in 

 air-tight vessels, and the di- 

 rections implicitly obeyed, or 

 its quality very much im- 

 paired. 



Very good, and convenient for 

 immediate use. The cold caus- 

 ed it to deposit large crystals 

 of sugar, and the deposit in tea 

 after this was very much in- 

 creased. 



There can be no mistake about 

 pickles, cannot be bad, but 

 all of best quality. 



Very good and convenient for 

 immediate use, probably better 

 for general service than the 

 dried, but for the table the 

 purity of the appearance of the 

 dried and the variety of its 

 uses render it necessary as a 

 luxury. 



All the preserved meats and 

 soups supplied to this Expedi- 

 tion are of the best quality 

 Hogarth's superior but it can- 

 not be doubted that for this 

 service they are very much 

 overcooked. 



The portable soups very valua- 

 ble, particularly when substi- 

 tuting game for the rations. 



Good. 



Very good : has been substituted 

 for pounded biscuit in pemmi- 

 can, and considered of great 

 importance : they have neg- 

 lected Edwards's potato for 

 it.
