ROTTEN APPIEs-For the same reason that ap-
ples should be ripe before being made into cider,
We believe that rotten apples sh0uld not be used.
When decomposition commences q chemical

lives flavor and aroma to the ripening fruit. 1t

its mice il will be found unlike that of a sound,

Piles should be rejected and the sound laid IN
heaps foot thick on the grass ground, perhaps,
where they will mature. 1t is not necessary to
protect them from the weather, unless frost is
anticipated. If placed in a building they ars apt
to get q faint of must, which is likely to be COM
mnnicated to the cider. When the apples are
taken up for grinding, it is best to reject again
