Bricks made of fruit pulps, dono up
IN oiled tissue paper, are the latest
wrinkles OF Yankee ingenuity. These
bricks are reported to DO hard, com.

California people have been expcri-
menting along this line Tor some time,
aud the problem is almost solved. In
= little while there will be enough on
tho market for home consumption,
aud after that large quantities will
be sent to Europe.
"Thesc fruit bricks retain their
freshness for surprising length OF
time" says Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson. "rhey are all but proof
against deterioration, being perfectly
good and fit for use eighteen months
or two years after being manufac'
turcd. About the consistency Of q
