watched the gradual reduction of the
death-rate and the elimination Of pre-
ventable disease, have hoped that be-

OF these, one, Peruvian, died of ma

The Ripening OF Fruits.

The place which fruits are assuming
IN the dietary OF man is one OF grow
ing Importance. Certain species, like
the apple and pear, the plum and the
grape, have long enjoyed a deserved
popularity others which were once
among the rarities in the United
States are now finding wide spread
favor. Melons and other fruits are
now being shipped by water from the
tropic regions where they are grown
TO the centers Of distribution. Ba-
nanas, which we're found only in few
seaboard towns generation ago, are
now common in every region Of Amer
ica. In great Briton, where they we're
little known less than two decades ago,
they are now the poor mans fruit"
The ripening Of fruits plays so inn
portant II part in their availability and
in some of the problems of transport
tation that authentic Information on
this subject is much to be desired.
Some fruits, like the apple, may be al
lowed to ripen almost fully on the tree
and may be kept in the ripened condi-
tion for relatively long periods il prop
er attention is paid to their manipula-
tion and storage. Other fruits, like
the berries, cannot be kept in the ripe
condition very long before deteriOra-
tion aud decay set in. In still other
.sI. Al. 81 -.
may BE- picked and transported advan-
tageously before the final ripening has
begun; and this process can then be
controlled in the market and home as
the conditions demand.
The physical changes, like the varia-
tion in color of ripening fruits, are ia
miliar, since they are evident to the
senses but these alterations are mere-
ly indicative of changes in the chemi-
cal makeup Of the fruits under the
conditions which determine ripening.
Heat, moisture, air aud light may all
participate in determining the charac-
teristic changes that ensue. Lnbratory
investigations in recent years have
given clearer indications OF what takes
place Among the changes are the
transformation Of starch into sugar,
the conversion OF soluble tannin COM
pounds with their astringent proper
critics into insoluble forms, the actual
lessenng OF the quantity OF acid, or
the masking of the acid flavor by the
accumulation of sugar, the softening
of woody tissue, and the increase and
storage of water in the form of juice
With the growing knowledge Of what
the ripening of fruits really involves,
says the Journal OF the American Med
ical Association, we are certain to ac-
quire better ideas of what properly
ripened product should really be. The
fact that un-ipened (winter) ap.
pies are unit for consumption in the
early fall, because instead OF sugar
they contain "A large amount of raw
starch which will disappear with the
.''mellowing" process, will be under
stood in a more intelligent way than
has usually been the case. Further
more, the faclltation or other reguln-
tion of the natural processes of rpen-

BY j. +. BUCK,

OF the entire alfalfa plant, the
stalk comprises 60 per cent, and
the leaf 40 per cent, whereas, the
quantity of the protein in the
stalk is only 40 per cent, while
the protein in the leaf is GO per
cent. Moreover only 20 per cent
of the fat is to be found in the
stalk, while so per cent is i'll the

tant that the alfalfa be harvested

Afraid of His Own Weakness.

Porter knew he had the wrong
side of the argument, yet he made
a spirited defense, saying that
farmers were a practical sort and
couldn't let chicken hearted
ness stand in the way Of bust
ness.
Seeing his words of no effect, a
happy thought struck him.
He took out his pocketbook and
tossed three 5-dollar bills into his
wife's lap.
Il heard you talking about a
new dress the other
But she did not wait for him to

do You think | could wear a
dress bought with the price of Old
Tom? I'd rather wear a 3-cent

Little more was said, but each
day at the time Porter had been
used to prepare Old Toms bran
mash he had a strange sense of re-
morse and longing for the faithful
old creature, and a feeling of lone
illness came over him as he passed
the empty stall.
What Happened a Year Later.
Over a year later, Porter, on a
business trip, vas driving his
"machine" through a beautiful
section of country several hundred
miles from home.
He heard angry shouts and saw
a short distance ahead a heavily
loaded wagon and a fallen horse.
Something was wrong, and he
stopped his motor car.
The wagon was twice too heav-
lily loaded for the old horse that
