Oils of Bergamot and Lemon.

The explanation for unprecedented
high prices in oil of bergamot is that
the world IS demand is steadily increas-
ing, while the normal available supply
has decreased some 40 per cent during
the last three years. The district in
which the bergamot is cultivated is very
limited, the principal field being south
ern Italy, and a few persons have
monopoly of the essence. The earth
quake in that country in December,
1908, destroyed many groves, the trees
remaining are very old and no new trees
have been planted for many years. Last
season high winds stripped the trees of
fruit just at the picking season, says
Pacific Drug Review.
The factories which distill the oil of
| bergamot are not of sufficiently large
capacity to allow them to dispose i'm
mediately of any large quantity of fruit,
and a great deal becomes unfit for man
ufacture by decay. For some years
these factories have been getting good
prices for their product.
A movement is said to have beer
started to cultivate the bergamot IL
Messina province by grating the bit
ter orange trees with scions of berga
mot, but several years must elapse be
fore such fruit can be marketed.
1t is said that neither the size of the
crops nor legitimate business conditions
warrant the present high price of oil Of
lemon. Local speculation and marke
manipulation have been made possible
by the general prosperity of the indus
try. The buying and selling of FLU
tures'' has been carried on more exten
sively than usual this year and specula
tive "shorts" have been squeezed whel
they could not settle their contracts
being obliged to deliver the oil itself
Actual producers have been rendere
prosperous by their ability to Withhold
their products from the market. Som
authorities claim that natural condition

prices above those of last year. The

this is what he told me:
When the table was bought, the first

hot water to which a good allowance
of washing powder had been added.
When the whole was on, the wood was
rinsed with clear. warm water, and
then rubbed over with cloth dip
ped in vinegar and water (equal guam
tities.) You'll probably think that aft
or such harsh treatment It was ruined
but 1t wasn't.
After applying the vinegar and wa
ter, he rubbed 1t as dry as possible
and when dry he started to polish Il
with boiled linseed oil. One can buy
1t all ready for use at any oil ant
paint shop.
Taking a very little Of the oil on ,
soft cloth, he began to polish will

When he had gone all over the sur
face he polished well with clean sof

removed.
Next day he repeated the process
and this he did every day, barring Sun
day. for six months, adding Just

the last month or two.
