to say anything, but he sent 4 friend ID

While the mass is still hot, add the essen

ware pot or open jar In the course OF
about an hour crust forms on the top;
pour gently Oh this an inch of water, more

A pound Of bananas contains more nu-

best wheaton bread. Although it grows
spontaneously throughout the tropics, when
cultivated its yield is prodigious;f for an acre
Of ground planted with bananas will return,
according to Humboldt, as much food
material as thirty.three acres of wheat,
or over a hundred acres of potatoes The
banana, then, is the bread Of millions who
could not we'll subsist without it. IN Bra
zil it is the principal food Of the laaoripg
classes, while it is no less priced in the
island OF Cuba. Indeed, in the latter coun-
try the sugar planters grow orchards of it
expressly for the consumption of their
slaves. Every day each hand receives his

fruit, neither longer nor stouter than a

and priced of all the varieties of the PLAN

banana, is probably in demand more than
any other kind. 1t is SUBJ divided into diff

which are known by their SAVIOR and their
size. The kind that reaches our markets
