SAVE APRICOT SEEDS.


The value of apricot pits is being
commercially demonstrated this sea-
SON. Time was. and not long ago.
when the humble pit was a waste prod
uct, a valueless something that was
spurned as ever being IN the way.
Later it was dignitied with a value; it
commanded S. a ton to be used as
fuel under the boilers where steam
power was generated. 1t burned we'll
and mad a desirable fuel. Now the
uses to which the erstwhile ~despised
pit is put are many. The demand is
running ahead of the supply, II its
value is continually increasing. 1t is
made to yield up its contents of mar
ketable poison-prussic acid; 1t gives a
very desirable quality OF almond OIL"
it enters largely into the manufacture
of candy in places, Germany. for in
stance; it is even said to be useful in
the fabrication of baking powder.
These are some of the pits possibili-
ties. There are others. The price of
apricot pits started this season at So
a ton. and has now reached 81. so, says
the Sunday Star. A San Francisco
house has contracted with the Cali
fornia Fruit Gamers association for
all the apricot pits that may be saved
In this seasons operations. A mer-
chant in San Francisco is willing to
pay 81 a ton for clean, dry apricot pits,
delivered. Last year about 500 tons
Of uncracked pits were shipped by sail
ing vessels to Germany, and it is es-
timated that fully 1000 tons will be
exported to that country this season.
The Golden State Fruit Packing COM
pany has been experimenting with pits
and finds that one pound Of kernels Is
about the average from twehty-four
pounds Of pits. The kernels are as
sorted and shipped east. Those who
are handling apricots should save the
pits. Spread them to dry, and when
this is thoroughly lone stack, and
there will be found no difficulty in
finding a market for them. Though
apricot kernels are used after treat
ment In the manufacture OF candy. the
eating of them as they come from the
pit or stone is not advised.

ion. His second wife was Mrs. Cath

One on, Curtice A. Boise. was born to
them. He is well known to all old-tim-
ers of Laramie. and will be recollected
by those who have come to Laramie
recently as the efficient chief dispatch
