thrown away by the raisin seeding III
dusIry together with the seeds COM
ing from the wineries and grape juice
factories over the country, can De
turned into valuable by-products OF
commercial value, according TO MT.
Rabak With the growing popularity
OF grape Juice as beverage, ~ 10
thought that this industry WIN pro-
duce as many or more waste seeds
ia the future as are no waVallaple
after the seeding of the country an
nual crop OF raisins.
One OF the most valuable by-pro-
ducts of raisin seeds Is an oil, the
value OF which was first discovered IN
France and Italy more than hair
century ago. In Europe this oil has
been extracted from the raisin seeds
and frequently used for Illuminating
purposes. rivaling olive oil from the
standpoint OF light clear flame ana
lack OF odor. According To French
chemists, II has been found that
every sixty pounds OF raisin seeds Will
produce six pounds of oil. Germans
have also experimental III extracting
an oil from raisin and grape seeds,
which they have found valuable for
everything from soap making 10 use
OH salads. Three pounds OF the oil
will make five pounds of soap or very
fine quality. In both France ana italy
crane seed OF is used In similar
manner as olive oil as dressing Tor
food
In making the oil the seeds are
ground 10 4 meal. placed In copper
kettle and one-third or one-fourth OF
their weight OF water is added. Heat
IL applied and when oil appears upon
the thicks mass OF material II Is put
In canvas bags and placed in an oil
press. Through a simple method ~
is possible to obtain 10 TO 20 per
cent OF the weight OF the seeds In
oil After the oil is extracted the
meal which remains has high pro-
| tein content and is relished by cattle
as a food.
Another valuable by-product which
can be made from the raisin seeds Is
strip which is produced from the
saccharin material which adheres TO
!
transparent and has the pleasant
characteristic taste Of the raisin The
strip contains large quantity or
fermentable sugar. and for this rea-
son II is capable of producing large
quantity OF alcohol.
A valuable tanning fluid may also
| be extracted from the seeds. and ex-
perts in the Department of Agricul-
ture have made a practical test OF this
,by-product for tanning purposes. The
sample of leather tanned with the ex-
! tract was good In all general appear
ances and indicated that the great
waste piles of grape seeds can be
made TO furnish much valuable tan
ming extract.
| Mr.. Rabak says that the three or
four thousand tons OF raisin and grape
seeds now wasted in this country can
| be made to furnish valuable by-pro-
| ducts worth thousands of dollars. In
Guiding an oil which Is edible and
which also can be used for illuminat

Of soap. a tanning extract, a certain

the nights of storm, slow waning;

in the old and worn doctrine of reel
procity. During his stay here he has

that ne will go down to Texas where
he will buy new potatoes and will
ship them to Fargo and other points in
the northwest.
The potatoes will then be ready for

IN THE HOTEL LOBBIES

Joe Roelfs, the cinnamon hair-color-
ed clerk at the Waldorf has a girl and
she doesn't know any more about card
playing than a ~jackrabbit does about
prizefighting, out she vas present with
Joe at a 800 party and as may be
imagined she M Joseph were partners
several times during the evening.
Joe wanted to tote home a prize, and
he wanted the first one at that.
Three times in succession during the
evening h had not played the cards
to his liking and on the fourth he
glanced peevishly at her cross the ia
BILE.
Did you or did you not notice,
Ophelia," he asked in no pleasant lone
of voice, that that was my trick?"
why, no." she calmly replied.
Was it really?'
ut certainly was" came the testy re-
ply. II thought you said you were &C
customed to playing cards"
Il am accustomed to playing cards"
she sweetly responded, while a smile
rippIed over her face like a wave, but
I don't work at it though, as some peo-
pie do" and o never said a word
thereafter as he saw his hopes go
aglimmering. He took home the
BOBBY prize that night, and now the
two don't speak.

Flasher, who was chief clerk of the
