Bleaching Dried Fruit.

According to the Experiment station
record for October UNITED States De
partment of Agriculture, Director Hill
CORD, of the California, believes that the
public should be taught to prefer
healthy, brown. high favored fruit to
the sickly tinted, chemically tainted
product of the sulphur box" When
freshly sliced fruit is treated with sui
phurors acid for a short time the effects
are slight, yet such as to protect the
fruit from insects. When thoroughly
sulphured after drying, however, the
fruit is injured in flavor, and, worse
still, sulphuric acid is formed in suffi-
Gent amount to he injurious to health.
In most countries in Europe the sale OF
sulphurated fruit is forbidden.

The damp warm weather is very ia

should be kept convenient for use. and
the poultry house floors, as well as the
outside yards, should be well busted

TO do so. The walls of the house should
also be whitewashed occasionally. and a

will prove more valuable than if no such
precautions are taken. and is recommend
