rieti-s of graz S. especially those Of
the meaty' 500. have very large
seeds, which account of their size
are really o.,.|.iCnable. If they
can be got rid 70. entirely, that will
be highly satisG@ Jory; and, one seed
less grape having been secured. it
there will be others.
The seedless grape was obtained
from the muscat of Alexandria (im-
ported from Egypt by selecting year
after year cuttings from those vines
which produced less than the normal
number of seeds. This process was
continued from season to season I'M
til absolute seedlessness was eyentu-
ally achieved The special object in
view was TO get raisin grape Of
large size. Everybody is familiar with
the little dried grapes of Corinth,
which are commonly known as cur
rants; they are seedless. but have
the disadvantage Of small size. The
new California grape. on the other
hand. will have flavor equal to that of
the cu1rant, while relatively giant.
The seedless apple may arrive in
the near future. The plant makers
are working on the problem patiently.
Indeed. that kind Of work pays we'll,
inasmuch as there is always a for
tune in any new seedless fruit For
tunately, the banana is already seed
less, and has been 50 for centuries,
though nobody knows why. Il is
propagated by suckers and possibly
it had no seeds when it was first

THE SEEDLESS FRUIT AGE.


UucIe Dam IdS d plduI "lLdI w. an
| his name is Herbert J. Weber. For
quite a while he has been making
new fruits and vegetables, and some
Of the things he has accomplished are
I little short OF miraculous. Only the
other day he handed TO the secretary
of agriculture an unfamiliar looking
object, golden yellow and of spherical
shape. which he said represented the
long sought cross between the Tan
gerine orange and the grape fruit or
pOmeIO. He called it the "tangelO, "
and promised tina, before very long
it should be on the markets CONNER
cialiy. L tastes somewhat like an
orange but is more acid.
Here. then. was a fruit un1hOught
Of by nature and created purely and
simply by human ingenuity. What
could be more wonderful? Yet il is
only one Of q number of similar mar
wells which have been recently evolved
Burbank The California plant breed
er. has just announced the production
Of new berry that is cross be
tween the raspberry and raWberry-
delicious morsel which. as it melts
on the tangue, conveys mingled sug-
gestiOns OF both Of those fruits.
nr. Weber says that the seedless
watermelon is q reasonable hope for
