lieved, will be able to use all excess
Juice for bottled or canned apple
sirup. The new sirup, the specialists
find, will keep indefinitely, so that the
cider makers can market 1t gradually
throughout the year.
The process for making the sirup
calls for the addition TO cider mill OF
filter press and open kettles, or
some other concentrating apparatus
The process is described as follows
The raw cider is treated with pure
milk Of lime until nearly, but not
quite, all Of the natural malic acids
are neutralized The cider Is then
heated to boiling and filtered through
filter press, an essential feature OF
process The resultant liquid Is then
evaporated either in continuous evap.
orators or open kettle, just as or.
binary cane or sorghum sirup Is
treated, It then Is cooled and allowed
to stand for short time, which
causes the lime and acids to form
small crystals Of calcium malate. The
sirup is then rehltered through the
filter press which removes the crys'
tails OF calcium malate and leaves Il
sirup with practically the same basic
composition as ordinary cane sirup,
It's flavor, however and appearance
are distinctive
Calcium malate, the byproduct, is
substance used In medicine and at
present selling for 81 per pound, 1t
Is believed that II calcium malate
can be produced In this way cheaply
and in large quantities, It can be made
commercially useful IN new ways,
possibly in the manufacture Of baking
powder
The cost Of making this sirup on n
commercial scale will be determined
during the test In October

Topeka Kan Kansas has the sec

SIRUP FROM APPLES
Department Of Agriculture Makes
a New Discovery.
VIII Enable Cider Mills to Make a
Valuable Product From Excess
Apples and culls - Seeks
Public Service Patent,

Washington Following extensive
experiments begun last spring, the
head Of the fruit and vegetable utili-
zation laboratory Of the department Of
agriculture has applied for a public
service patent covering the making Of
new form of table sirup from apple
Juice. This patent will make the dis
covery, which the specialists believe
will be Of great value to all apple
growers as a means Of utilizing their
culls and excess apples, common prop
erty Of any cider mill in the United
States which wishes to manufacture
and sell apple cider sirup
The new sirup, one gallon Of which
is made from seven gallons of ordin'
airy cider is a clear ruby or amber
colored sirup Of about the consistency
Of cane sirup and maple sirup, Prop
erly sterilized and put in sealed tins
or bottles, it will keep indefinitely,
and when opened will keep under
| household conditions as we'll as other
sirups 1t has a distinct fruity aroma
and special flavor Of its own, which Is
described as being practically the
same as the taste of the sirupy sub
stance which exudes from a baked
apple.
The sirup can be used like maple
or other sirups for griddle cakes
cereals, household cookery and as fla
voring in desserts. The government
cooking experts are at present expert.

fee on Friday Senator MeNichol and
his family will 90 to ST. Lucie, Fla,
on Friday evening and will not return
until January 2, on the eve of the or
ganizaticn of the Legislature.
Senator McNichol is said to be dis
inclined to interfere in the contest for
the Speakership and will leave the mat
ter to the decision of Senators Penrose
and Ware. Senator McNichol is said
TO also favor approval for "progres.
sive" legislation generally, which may
be urged by DR.. Brumbaugh, with the
exception of local option. At the
meeting on Friday it is expected that
plans for child labor and workmen S
compensation acts. 1t is practically un-
derstood that some legislation in this
direction will be enacted, but the ex-
tent of the reform has not been deter
mined.
The leaders also propose to reach a
decision regarding the Congressional re-
apportionment. All plans SO far sug
gested for this redistribution of dis
tricts call for one extra Representative
each for Philadelphia and Allegheny,
and two new members for the country
districts. It is understood that the To-
cal Organization leaders, both in this
city and Allegheny county, are favor
able to this proposition, but doubt if
the country interests can agree upon
an amicable scheme of reapportionment
for the rest of the State.
