Tomato Figs.

Among the new articles capable of being
cultivated and converted into money on
the farm, nothing to us looks more plaus-
ible han the making of tomato figs. The
taste for tomato, whether a natural or
acquired one, is universally popular-and
there IS hardly a vegetable which the
public demand has required to be cooked
and prepared for present end premature
use, in such a great variety OF ways as
tbs tomato and which retains so readily
it's peculiar flavor. The time will probably
come when large fields of them will be
cultivated expressly for converting into
figs. They retain the tomato taste, keep
as well as the others, and could rs readily
be exported or shipped long distances.
Large drying apparatus must of course
be constructed for the wholesale fig
business, and other arrangements 10
correspond; but We predict that those
Who go first into 1t will make a great deal
of money. The following Is the receipt
for making tomato figs, which we have
known tried with the best results: 'Col-
lect q lot OF ripe tomatoes about one inch
in diameter, skin and stew them in the
usual manner, when lone lay them on
dishes; hatten them slightly, and spread
over them q light layer of pulveriZed white
or. the best brown sugar; expose them to a
summers sun or place them in a drying
house; when as dry as fresh figs, pack in
old fig or small boxes, with sugar between
each layer" If properly managed the
difference cannot be detected from the
veritable article. Notifications may be
made by further experience; but the pro-
cess is very simple, and they could proba-
bly, be put on the market and yield a good
profit at half the price of Smyrna figs
and are so much better that the latter
would, to a great extent, be superseded
