said no man could represent that State in Congress

Apple ohampaign-A Valuable Re
cine.


We have recently learned of very simple aud
cheap process of making Champaign Wine d
rectly flom apples; and as the coming fall will
furnish an abundance Of the necessary mitoral
the recipe may prove interesting to farmers and
profitable to dealers.
The Juice is pressed directly from sound apples
without previous grinding, because the bruising of
the fruit, in short time discOlors the juice, and
produces such other chemical change, by exposure
to the atmosphere, to prevent the practical
working of the process, while the juice pressed
from sound apples is nearly as mpid as water.
The juice runs directly from the press into a
filter. consisting Of a suitable box about foot
deep BY six inches square, filled with mix
turc OF pulvcrizcd charcoal and elem sand or fine
gravel about half and half A thin layer of straw
is put into the box before il is filed with the filter
ing material and the bottom of the box perforated
with fine holes.
The juice passes through this filter into bottles,
which should be Immediately corked to exclude
the atmosphere, which gives il the appearance of
the real champaign; and our informant who has
used the process, assures VS. that the wine, after
rem lining in the cellar while presents the action
and flavor of the imported article, with the advan-
tage of being a much more healthy beverage, while
its cost does not exceed t,ro cents quart bottle
where apples plenty. imported chapaign OF
the cOmmonest quality, cannot be bought for less
than two to three dollar bottle, while its genuine
ness ana purity are very quesuonaOle 10 say the
least.
To crush and press apples at one operation re-
qures a very powerful press. We have examined
a portable arrangement of the kind. quite simple
and cheap and we-adapted to this process "a it is
sufficiently powerful to crush and press the hardest
apples. having a pressing power of 10000 pound.
with 50 pounds weight applied to the crank,
Such press would be good to extract the juice
from grapes, n it would not break the seeds and

The press, referred to in the foregoing extract

orchards should not neglect to make note of the
above recipe.
