Brick Fruit PVlps.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 23.--
Bricks made OF fruit pulps, done up In
oiled tissue paper, are the latest wrin-
kles OF Yankee ingenuity. These bricks
are reported TO be hard, compact and
weli-nigh imperishablc.
California people have been expert
menting along this line for some time,
aud the problem Is almost solved. In Il
little while there will be enough on the
market for home consumption, and af-
ter that large quantities will be sent TO
Europe.
''These fruit bricks retain their fresh
ness for a surprising length of time, y
says Secretary OF Agriculture Wilson.
They are all but proof against deteri
oration. being perfectly good and fit fol
use eighteen months or two years after
being manufactured. About The con
sisteney OF soft gumdrop, they are de
cidediy toothsome. and, the pulp bein,
mixed with alarge percentage OF sugar
they hold the flavor OF the fruit admir-
ably. Straw berry bricks. raspberr.
bricks, and other fruit bricks will 500
be on the market.

THE GREATEST EDUCATIONAL NEED

To the Editor: What is it? Not more
schools, or longer terms, or more money
for public education. These are suffl-
Gent now to give every child in North
Carolina good chance to learn to read,
and write and acquire a good common
education if they will use the opportun-
tiles offered them in the public schools.
We rejoice that the last Legislature
provided for the extension of the public
school term to four months for each
year, We will eheerfully pay the tax
