Waste Apples Yield Rich Syrup
By New Process.

A new extraction process converts
the juice of even the most intensely
acid varieties Of apples into a sweet,
rich syrup, which is entirely suitable
as base for flavocing extracts and
for many other purposes. A valu-
able by-product Of the process is a
compound, known as calcium malate,
which is Identical with the so-called
sugar sand" hitherto derived from
maple syrup exclusively. This COM
pound forms the basis of malic acid,
and was valued at $3.50 per pound,
and more, before the war At pres
ent, the only plants employing the
process are located in Nova Scotia,
but, as it Utilities a fruit which is now
being allowed to go to waste to the
extent of hundreds of thousands Of
tons year, it is 10 be expected and
hoped says the June Popular Mechan
les Magazine that the method will
come into wide general use within
the near future.

FACTS FOR THE
CITY TAXPAYERS

Nothing but Indifference on
the part of the voters will pre-
vent a complete expression upon
the 100000 bond issue next
Tuesday. As The Tribune has
said before, it is not so much the
amount involved in this specific
issue, but the election should
afford a test vote upon the atti-
tude Of the people toward an
additional increase of taxes at
this time.
With bonded Indebtedness
of more than a million dollars
and the entire nation going
through a period of adjustment
and defation, few people are sug-
gesting anything that will occa-
sion an increase in public ex-
penditures.
Usually when a bond issue is
proposed there has been issued
a complete statement of the
city's finances. In the absence
of any such information from
official circles, The Tribune has
gone to the records as we'll as it
could for figures that would indi-
cate to the voters the extent of
the city's indebtedness.
To detail expenditures and to
give comparative budgets for a
period of years would entail
considerable research work. If
this data were available, The
Tribune is sure that it's argu-
ments against any more bond is
sues, or increased city budgets at
this time would be fortified to an
even greater degree.
Just bear in mind that the
election is next Tuesday. You
vote at the regular polling places
and the booths will be open unit
