Tho manufacturers OF dried fruits IN
the United states have found a good
market for their products In some OF
the European countries. notably Ger
many. This trade should be fostered
and built up tlll II ls able TO take all
Of our surplus IN heavy fruit years as
well rs In years when we have lin
tied supply, But an obstacle appears
IN the custom OF many OF our shippers
using sulphurous acid for the improve
ment OF the appearance OF their fruits.
Already the German authorities have
taken the matter up and are doing
what they can 10 stop the further inn
portation OF fruit 80 treated.
Some OF the California papers are
saying that the sulphuring "a good
thing, at least thing that does not
make the fruit detrimental to the
health. and they claim that some ply
slcians have said 80. We are In very
grave doubt on that pol.t. We have
many kinds OF preseryatlyes In use,
and Il Is probable that all Of them are
moro or less harmful. Yet we know
that Il Is possible 20 get a medical
opinion IN favor OF anything that
brings a good price on the market Let
ua cite the case OF Preseryallne. Med
ieal Investigations have decided that
Il Is harmful 10 the health especially
10 the health Of little children and
inyalids. Nevertheless the makers and
defenders OF Proseryallne declare that
they have medical opinions TO the ef-
feet that Il does not act lniurlously.
We cannot help feeling that Il IL not
right 70 put any powerful chemical
into foods that are 20 be consumed
by all classes OF people the weak as
well as the strong. We have a great
deal OF sympathy with the foreign ma
tlona that have very strict antl-adul-
teratlon laws, and we can but wish
that our own laws against adu,era-
l tion were stronger.
We desire the foreign market foT our
/ dried fruits. and we should therefore
see 20 Il that only pure articles are
sent across tho water. The United
States government should take up the
matter. but Il Is doubtful n Il will do
20 without an initial move being made
by the shippers OF frult or other par

Land for strawberries must be prop
erly prepared We saw case this
year where strawberries we're set out
on virgin aoil-soil that had never had
the plow In Il. and where tho ground
was 80 compact that even the natural
Yerdure on Il was thin and weak. ThiA
land. although manured, did not DO
we'll and should not bo expected TO do
we'll, in helping 10 make a good straw
berry bed. Though tho growing sea
son has been a good one, most OF the
plants In question are now small and
stunted In appearance. Had the year
been a dry one they must OF necessity
have wlthered and died. Land like the
above lacks both the mechanical struc-
ture and the plant food 10 permit the
strawberry plant to do its best.
Nuraerymen are often blamed for
sending out Strawberries that do TsJt
come up 10 the expectations OF the
buyers. In very many cases the pVor
results are directly traceable to tho
manner IN which the plants we're han
died by tho purchasers or to the very
unpreparod condition OF the ground In
which they were placed. The land for
strawberries must be land that has
been growing some thrifty crop and
that has received proper manurins and
attention. Virgin soils arc not sui .
able for the development OF a crop that
must feed as grossly as does the straw
berry. Land well-worked and we'll
manured and OF proper mechanical
structure will give good results when
tho plants are properly handled and
taken care of II Is our experience
