Further n1tnation showed that the
cider had lost nothing OF Its fruit
content and that the frozen part con-
tanned nothing but water
The cider concentrated was inter-

OneBof the most Interesting expert
ments that the government has ever
"a rrfed on IN its fruit utilizationl
work was that In connection with It's
attempts to so treat the persimmonI
that It might become disable on the
markets. This was not possible un-I
der normal conditions. because theI
persimmon is soft and mushy when
ripe. and will not stand shtpment.t
III ripens only when the frost nipsl
it. Until that time 1t is so intensely
bitter and vigorous In its puckeringl
effect upon the mouth that 1T is 1m-l
possible to eat 1t.
An agricultural explorer reported
TO the department. that the Japanessf
subjected the persimmon to somel
process that rendered it palatablei
while still Arm. The process was 81
secret. 1t was only known that in /
its working out the fruit kept for
certain period in sake case-thatl
vessel which is the container of the
favorfte drink of the Japanese.l
Could the experts discover the secret
of this process?
1t was shown in the first place.
that the pucker Of the persimmonf
was due to the presence Of tannict
acid. which must be disposed Of to
make the fruit palatab1e. If thet
Japanese used sake cask to accom-
Mi an This end. the chemists might
