NEW INDUSTRY
For This State, But One OF Very
Rapid Growth.

"Gimme a glass of grape Juice.
1t was not so long ago that the man in
charge OF the soda fountain would have
stared at you in blank establishment had
YOU made such request of him, but
now the unfermented juice of grapes is
found at every up-to date fountain, and
is being extensively used by doctors, and
in hospitals for medicinal purposes, as a
germ killer and "builder-up' of weak
ened constitutions.
Michigan is already one of the princi-
pal producers of this medicinal beverage.
Though a comparatively new industry
in Michigan, it promises to be consld-
cradle factor in the progress of the
state" commented State Labor Commits
sioner Mcleod recently. Before the
Battle Creek Grape Juice Co, Ltd, was
organized in 1902 and the factory located
at Lawton, Mich, the price of grapes
per ton was about SIS, and it was prob
lem with the owners of vineyards how to
market their crops.

Few enterprise started the price had
gone TO S35, and it is still keeping up
Grapes can be grown in nearly any part
of the state, but Van Buren, county

opment, and the cultivation of the fruit
has already developed into great in
dustry in that section.

plant for the manufacture of grape Juice

ORCHARD BRUSH BURNER.
Novel Continuance for Destroying
the Tree Prunings Without
Hauling Out of Orchard

When | was In southern Oregon not
long ago | saw what was TO me a new
implement. 1t was a homemade af-
fair that was the outgrowth of the ne
cessity Cor getting rid of orchard prun-
ings. H. r. Meader of Jackson coun-
ty, Oregon who is an up-to-date or
chardist. conceived the plan of build
ing a portable brush burner. in which
the refuse left after pruning could be
got rid of without the trouble of haul
ing it out of the orchards. He made
a frame or running gear of four poles
about six inches in diameter using
two for axletrees, about seven feet long
and on top of these two others about
ten feet long were bolted near the
ends, forming a rectangle. To the UNI
der side of one was fastened a round
iron rod, whose projecting ends were
used as spindles for two old farm
implement wheels about foot in di-
ameter. These wheels were held in
place by linchpins that were put
through holes made in the ends of the
spindles. at the blacksmith shop on the
farm. The burner proper was a huge
iron basket or crate, about six by ten
feet on the bottom by two feet deep,
made of old wagon tires riveted to-
gether. The meshes of this crate vera
nearly a foot in diameter. which was
sufficiently close to hold the brush. The
bottom was covered with old sheet iron
scraps TO keep the Goals from falling
ap1 tb,c hold the fire IN
one end. which was the front, and next
! where the team was TO be hitched, IT
was sided up to the top with shee.
| iron, to prevent too much radiation OF
heat in that direction. Chains or iron
rods were fastened to the front emil
and extended about ten feet forward
/ to put the team proper distance from
the fire. This crude apparatus, made
on the farm out of old scraps, served
a most excellent purpose. 1t was
taken into the orchard where the brush
was on the ground, fire kindled in
il. and as the brush was piled on and
consumed il was dragged forward AMI
more brush added, until one row
after the other was burned and out OF
the way Mr.. Meader told me thar
some of his neighbors made fun OF It.
and thought 1t was not practical, but
a few borrowed it of him, and now
there are several in the vicinity.
When I first saw the burner near a
tool shed did not instantly catch the
idea Of it's use, but only word was
necessary to convey the thought Of
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1906-04-06

AN ORCHARD BRUSH BURNER.
It's saving of time and labor, explains
the correspondent of the Rural New
Yorker. 1t Is inexpensive to make
and thoroughly practical in use. II
may be that other brush burners have
been made. but Mr.. Meader said he
had never heard of one and inventel
his as an eXpedient to save time and
trouble. The idea is one of the best
that have met in many years, and de-
serves TO be put into practice all over
the country where orchards exist. To
get rid Of the prunings in such an easy
way is great saving, for they are
troublesome and bulky. 1t costs
good deal to handle them once, espe-
cially to load them on wagon or
sled, haul them to some distant place,
and then make bonfire of them; but
when they can be put on movable
fire. little by little, and got rid or
in a short time. once for all, 1t is
great economy of time and labor.
There might be some improvements
added to the crude implement, as de-
scribed. such as an iron running
gear. although this is not important,
for the fire had not burned the wooden
frame. However, if there was an iron
frame the bottom could be left par
TALLY open, that there might be bet
ter access Of air from below, to cause
quicker burning and allow the ashes 70
drop through readily. The top should
be larger than the bottom. so the
brush would go in easily Four Wheels
would be Better than two; for they
would lessen the draft on the team.
II is not desirable TO build very large
fire. for fear of scorching the trees on
either side and making 1t uncomfort-
able for the men and team in attend
ance. Two men. or perhaps one, would
be enough to gather and burn the
brush. and one horse might pull the
burner on four wheels. There is lying
about almost every farm some mate
rial such as old iron wheels. aXles
wagon and buggy tires, that might %
made into one of these handy brush
burners. with the aid of a blacksmith
and at little expense, provided there Is
no forge on the farm to lessen the
cost still more. The frame should no
be weak, or it might heat and sag tc
the ground. Let there be hundreds OF
these brush burners made without de-
lay by our orchardists and put to use
Several neighbors might own and use
one together. This will turn tn
brush into ashes and spread them II
the orchards, where they should lie
and save about half the expense of get
ting rid Of the brush. This convenien
vehicle is shown in our illustration.

The state central committee has pre-
