THE CORN pOPPER.
Thing Of Widespread Common Use
and Likewise of Pleasant Memories.
New York SUM-

'->cN Aoi N cuny
The corn pepper" said dealer in
such things, came into use only about
80 years ago. Before that time. as plen-
| ty of old people now living can remem-
Der, they used To pop corn in frying
pan.
"Of course they had to put a cover
on that to keep the corn from flying
out around when it popped. 1t was fun
popping corn in the frying pan, even if
you couldn't see ii pop. You could hear
1t when II began to pop. flying up
against the tin cover. and then there
would be perfect fusilade of popping
caused by many kernels going all at
once. and then the sound of the flying
corn would be more scattering, and
finally quite muffied because by that
time the frying pan would be full or
half fun of the white. puffy popped
open corn. 1t was great fun To pop corn
in a frying pan.
The most commonly used of all corn
peppers is the smallest of those made
for domestic use, which hold one quart.
Peppers in various sizes. ranging up to
IS quarts. are sold for business pur-
poses. These are commonly operated
by hand.
"Of the mechanically operated corn
peppers there is one, a hand-cart ar
rangement mounted on four rubber
tired wheels. that contains at one end a
peanut roaster and at the other a corn
pepper. The pepper is actuated by a
spring motor that can be wound up:
heat is furnished from gasolene heat =
er. The corn to be popped is placed in
Il receptacle made for the purpose.
from which, after the machine has
been started, ii feeds automatically
into the pepper. from which. in turn,
when il has been popped. il is auto
matically discharged into a receiver
made for that purpose.
Another modern cornpopper designed
Tor Seashore and that sort Of use is one
hat will hold barrel nf popped corn.
This pepper cam be operated by any sort
of machinery available ir desirable: an
electro motor, for instance. or little
steam engine
In popcorns early days the popcorn
ball was shaped into form by the N-ry
simple process OF moliing il between the
hands. But for a long time now there
| have been popcorn presses. In the more
recent years the popcorn bail has been
IN large degree supplanted by popcorn
sold in other forms: by what is called The
crispette. In which the corn is formed
into Il disk-shap.d mass. about three
inches in diameter by an inch thick. and
by the now familiar. popcorn bars. the
corn being easily formed into these
shapes by means Of Very simple operated
moulds.
Folks, young folks especially. like just
as well as ever 10 pop corn. and in domes-
tic use the cornpOpper firmly holds its
place in The esteem of the people. Take
the country through and you'd find from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, in town and
country. wherever there are winter fire
sides. people buying cornpoppers just the
same rs ever and joyfully popping corn
