SOME FACTS ABOUT LEMONS.
Sicily the Great Source of supply, and
the United States the Great Market.

A reporter called on one of the
largest dealers in fruit in the United
States to get some information about
the lemon trade. Nearly all the
lemons handled in this market" said
the dealer, "are imported. Sicily
contributes more than all other coun-
tries put together. Calabria, Messina,
and Palermo send out large consign-
ments. There are four crops each
year. The lemons are cut from the
trees when green and placed in maya
zines where they are subjected to a
sweating or purging process. At the
end of four or five days the fruit is
either stored away in shallow trays or
packed for shipment. Lemons gath
cred in November and December have
! the best keeping qualities. [ have
! kept lemons of this cut from Novem-
Der till June without destroying their
market value. When the fruit arrives
here it is sold at auction, this being
the only way In which lemons and
oranges are sold to the trade. One
year ago a steamer arrived with a
cargo of thirty-six thousand. boxes.
The entire lot was dispose of the
same day. Unless the broker or deal
er wishes to sell his purchase at once,
the fruit Is put away and ripened by
steam heat. Our business has entirely
changed since the introduction of
steamers. The voyage by the old
sailing fruiters were long and uncer-
tain. A cargo of decayed lem
Ons was the frequent result
OF voyage of several months.
Now, with rapid transportation at
his command, the shipper can allow
his lemons to remain on the trees
many weeks longer than he could then,
and is quite certain that on arriving
at this market the fruit will be in good
condition. The best, and consequently
the highest, case lemons come from
Sorrnto. Great care is bestowed upon
their cultivation. The fruit is long
and smooth and has a beautiful golden
color These lemons are considered
a luxury III Paris, where they are used
not Only by cOnfectiOners and bakers,
but also by decorators. Generally
speaking medium-sized, thin-skinned
is the best. The large, coarse-grained
variety are the poorest and the cheap
est. The United States consume more
lemons III year than all the other
countries combined. Russia comes
next The custom the Russians have
of drinking their tea with a slice of
lemon IN it accounts for the large con
sumption there. The growth of the
lemon trade i'll this country during the
last thirty years has been enormous.
In 1850, 119, 600 boxes were imported.
Last year this number had increased
], 342, 900 boxes. The summer is our
best season. There is one more fact
about the lemon and general fruit
trade that is worthy of notice. The
people in the far west will not buy any
but the choicest fruit It makes no
difference what the prices are, they
will buy it. New York Tribune.

Ship John Light.-Those OF our
readers who have visited "Ship John
Light" in Delaware Bay, will appreciate
the following bill Of history, taken from
the Bridgeton Meas:
Ship John was cut through by the ice
in the winter of 1897, on what was called
the Middle Grounds, upwards OF three
miles distance from and within sight OF
Cohansey light. Her submerged hulk in
time made a dangerous shoal directly IN
the track Of vessels engaged in the foreign
trade with Philadelphia. The U. S. Gov
eminent, as is well known, has recently
erected at great expense an excellent light
house as a warning and a good range light
to navlgators. The old ship John, Capt.
Folger, was consigned from HAVE, France.
to the well known merchant OF that day.
| Henry Drlnker. of Philadelphia, with an
assorted cargo, much of which was saved
and deposited for awhile in-the otd--John
Sheppard store-house, yet standing above
Greenwich wharf. Col. Eli Elmer, then
the Officer Of Customs of the newly crea-
| ted 'sPort of Bridgeton,' took charge OF
the same. There is yet a relic of the o d
vessel to be seen any day in Bridgeton,
| which Col. Elmer secured before the yes
sci disappeared. The late Abram Wood,
| ruff, Sen, related that he accompanied
him. 1t is the fgurehead of the shlP-an
elegantly carved efigy of a lady which
for SO many years has stood SO gracefully
as a sentinel on the apex of he ice house
at the residence of the lale Rev. DR.. Jones,
On Brood street, corner of Giles, Bridge

A Dangerous Practce.-The
Bridseton Patriot speaks for all our towns
in saying that no one who drives upon our
streets can have failed to notice a class o.
boys from five to ten or twelve years oil
age, who seem to take pleasure in seeing
how near to a horse they can run across
the road IN advance of him, without being
struck by the horse, or how near they can
approach to the side of the horse without
being struck by the wheels of the carriage
which follow him. Such urchins are in
constant danger Of being run over, in
which case their parents, as well as them
selves, would have much to say about
"careless driving" and would doubtless
condemn the driver. The fact is the streets
of our town. In every part, have become a
public playground, especially evenings, and
fortunate is the man who drives over them
withou t running over some one, or having
his horse frightened, and probably spoiled
by such thoughtless recklessness. Here
in Woodstown the delight of the STRIPPING
is also to run In front of approaching en-
gines on ON railroad.
