Our fair readers may be interested to
learn where, for the most part, the
flowers grow, the sweet perfumes OF
which are found in those pretty fiacons
on their dressing-tables. The chief
places of their growth are the south of
France and Piedmont, namely: Mont
pelier, Grastee, Mines, Cannes and
Nice; these two last especially are the
paradise of violets, and furnish a yearly
product of about $4,000 pounds OF vic.
let blossoms. Nice produces harvest
OF 100000 pounds OF orange blossoms,
and Cannes as much again and of a
finer color; 500 pounds Of orange bios
SONS yield about two pounds OF pure
Noroli oil. At Cannes the acacia thrives
we'll, and produces yearly about
1000 pounds of acacia blossoms. One
great perfumery distillery at Cannes
uses yearly 0,0U0 pounds Of orange bios
SONS, 100000 pounds of rose leaves, 1000
pounds Of jessamine blossoms, 10000
pounds of yiolets,. and 5000 pounds OF
tuberoses, together with a great many
other sweet herbs. The extraction OF
the ethereal oils, the small quantities OF
which are mixed In the flowers with such
large quantities of other vegetable juices
that it requires about 900 pounds OF rose
leaves to win one ounce OF otto of roses,
demands very careful treatment. The
French, favored by their climate, are the
most active, although not always the
most careful preparers of perfume; halt
the world is furnished BY this branch o1
Their industry.
