THE GREAT FRUIT EVAPoRAroR.
Opening Of the Colman Establishment o
Peansylvanis Avenue, near the Con-
Rressional Cemetery.

Opening Of the Colman Establishment on
Pennsylvanis Avenue, near the Con-
gressional Cemetery.
Nicely prepared fruit In the winter is the best
dish possible to spread before Q man with an Rp-
petite. Fruit clean and bearing its natural tint,
is calculated to inspire, or rather inclte an appe
tite TO which nothing else in the edible line can
in any way fsvorsbly compare: Cheap dried
fruit with these two requisites has always been
the most popular article Of purchase among the
cuisine caterers Of our land Heretofore, the pro-
cess Of drying has been SO expensive that fruit
dried with care has been placed In the market at
prices which seemed eIorbitant but q change has
recently come over this department Of our manu-
factures, If they may be called such, and now
through the inventive genius Of Mr.. Reynolds, o
fruit and vegetable evaPorator has been con-
structed, which Is destined TO supercede all other
inventions Of the kind.
A few days ago Mr.. Reynolds, OF Chicago, re-
ceiyed an order from d. Z. Colman Sons, and
G. G. Cornwall Sons, Of this city, for the largest
fruit evsporator In America, and an agent was
Immediately despatched to this city for the pur-
pose Of constructing i the tower and mounting the
and the establishment is in full blast turning out
an almost incredible amount of the finest dried
tower is seventeen feet high and eight feet in
diameter, and the perpendicular cylinder. to
which are attached the drying screens, is re-
msrEsbie ease that boy Of ten years Of age can
revolve It and think 1t is sport.
Although the patent has been issued for this
lQV6QLlOu UuL u lew udlb, COuelucEhUlo boEIltOTy
has already been sold. Fruitraisers, who have
examined It, are delighted with its operations.
Several prominent business men, whose attention
was called to It, have formed an association
known as the Reynolds Fruit Evaporator Com-
papy, to operate IL. One Of the evaporators is In
operation on Pennsylvania avenue, near the Con-
gressional Cemetery.
Every year millions of dollars worth Of fruit
goes to waste for want Of suitable means to utilize
i. This is especially the case In places remote
from railroads, or other means OF rapid transpor-
tation: Often there is such surplus
Of fruit in certain locations that
1t hardly brings enough to pay for
picking. With an apparatus OF shis kind, half the
fruit could be dried and the remaining half sold
at good prices. For want Of apparatus Of this
kind we allow much Of our wild and cultivated
fruit to 90 TO waste, and import our supply from
abroad. This invention Is without doubt one OF
the most useful and remarkable that has ever
been brought before the public. II is in fact the
only fruit evaporator that condenses the vapor
thereby retaining the natural favor and color Of
the product. 1t Is blessing to the masses and
q creation of which the creator may well be proud.
To-day the establishment will be open TO the
public, and sll invited to call and witness the
remarkable results which 1t produces.

through thecolumnsOf the Country Gen.
Heman:
1 have seen IN Ireland crops of hay
so heavy that part of the crop had to
be removed to allow room for curing.
As much as ten tons to the Irish acre
have been grown on what is termed the
golden vein'' in Ireland, being equiv
alent to about seven tons per English
acre; but every soil is not adapted to
permanent pasture. / was brought up
to farming in the Lothians of Scotland,
where there is no permanent pasture
excepting in the parks of the nobility,
so I cannot well be accused of preJu-
dice or partiality In that respect, but
from a residence of some years IN Ire
land 1 realized the benefit and advan-
vantages Of permanent pasture land,
and its adaptability to hay crops. The
fine aftermath, both IN England and
Ireland, in favorable seasons is mostly
from what is called in this country
orchard grass.
Intelligent graziers in Ireland CON-
pute that it takes forty years in grass
before it becomes what Is called fine
fattening land. On those grazing
lands or farms, there is often no tillage
whatever, and a proportion Of it is cut
every year for hay for winter use dur
ing storms, and fed on the land, for
the stock is fed out all the winter on
such farms. Landlords DO not allow
such lands to come under the pillow,
and no blame to them when compared
to the deteriorated tillage land of
equal original value. So much for
overcropping and not returning its
equivalent to the soil. I must not be
mistaken or mislead any one In this
respect. 1t requires a natural good
soil for permanent pasture or the best
results would not be obtained. The
blue grass region Of Kentucky is emil
nently qualified for permanent pasture,
and nothing can beat it for raising,
breeding or fattening stock, and it
need fear no competition In that re-
spect, but unfortunately too much is
broken up for the sake Of hemp, and
fine old pastures are getting to be the
exception.
Our limestone soils are not inferior
to those of Kentucky, and artificial
lining is doing the work of Dame Ma
ture quite as we'll
