FRUIT DRYING.

Whenever fruit is dried in the
sun, says an exchange, il il exposed
TO insects, who deposit more or less
eggs upon il. If climate be calm
as in the Atlantic States the cold
weather sets in so early that these
eggs are not Matched in autumn, and
the fruit is usually consumed before
the following spring, the eonsum-
ers ignorant OF the fact OF having
eaten a million of insect eggs, which
become animated as soon as warm
weather approaches, ii any fruit re-
mains. In California, and in all
semitropical latitudes, these eggs
hatch out before the approach of
autumn and often destroy the fruit
before it is required for cOnsump-
ton and always injure ii. Much
sun dried fruit has been shipped to
foreign ports and has been ruined
before reaching its destination, and
when sold nearer home has been re-
turned to the farmer. Therefore,
oven dried fruit is the most reliable,
Clearly, and wholesome, and
healthy. Economy and policy all
require that the old method OF dry
ing fruit be abandoned, unless il
car be subject to some process by
which the insect may be destroyed.
Fruit dried by artificial means, II
carefully watched, is always more
wholesome and palatable, and when
it is designed to thus prepare II for
home or foreign markets, patent
ovens for the purpose should be
used, which may be so arranged as
to prevent burning, and which will
cause the juice OF the fruit to dry
rapidly, and thereby impart q finer
aud more natural taste, since the
process OF drying is quickly accom-
Dlished.
