large crops occur only at intervals
of from three to seven years, bui
there is crop each year. The nut
requires two years to ripen and

ing gathered in New Mexico alone
Gathering the Pinon.
In October, the big harvest sea
son, bands of Indians flock to the
mountains where the pinon trees
are to be found. There they camp
moving along as they exhaust TIL
crop of each area. The Indians
after their own indolent fashion
pick up the tiny nuts by hand fron
the ground. Their white brothers
however. spread a big tarpauli'
over the ground beneath the tres
land shake the limbs until every
cone is emptied. The nuts are car,
ried in sacks and baskets to the
nearest Indian trading post, where
they are sold TO the dealer, who
ships them to market.
The nuts are shipped in 10000
pound carload lots to the east
where they are purchased by cand,
makers. clubs and hotels, and by
companies which vend the nut In
various ways. The man who gath
ers the pinons is paid from five
to ten cents pound. the whole
Isale dealers average about / 5 cents
| a pound and the retailers sell the
nuts at about 25 cents a pound In
THE west. The 1921 crop in New
Mexico, the only state to market
the nuts on a large scale. is valued
at about 100000.
Strangers to the exotic little
brown nut in the east are making
is acquaintance through the agency
Iof slot machines which are placed
in the subway Of New York. A
nickel in the slot brings a handful
of the pinons. The sudden fad for
the nuts sold in this fashion in
creased the price over 100 per cent
last season. Pinons bring about
a dollar a pound in slot machin
sales.
But the unshelled pinon is diff
cult to eat. The birds and squir-
rels who live on them and the In
dian who considers them a staple
article Of winter diet, have time
aplenty to crack the thin. brittle
shells to obtain the rich meat in
side. Few others, except perhaps
practiced "pinon busters" who have
the habit. will take the time or
risk their teeth in cracking the
Euts. The pinon shelled and ready
to eat, however, is great delicacy
1t remained for woman of Wis
i ion and infinite patience to solv,
the problem of preparing the pinon
for immediate use. Mrs. Fannie
s. Spitz of Albuquerque, N. NJ, is
the inventor of the first machine
made for the shelling of the little
nuts. Believing that it was posi-

PINON NUT OF
N. NJ. is RIVAL
WITH PEANUTS
BY FRERIC j. HAsKIN.


Washington, d. c., April 1.-The
pine tree which the southwest In
dians have been using for food for
centuries, has at last come into its
cwn as a popular delicacy. A peri
odic bumper crop of the little
brown nuts in the mountains of
New Mexico this season has re-
suited in the commercializing in
the east of the pinon as an exclu-
sive product of the southwest high
lands.
The pinon is a volunteer. Ma
ture does the farming, the Indians
do the harvesting and the traders
do the marketing. The nuts are
produced each fall at an expense
to no one. the pine cones dropping
their ripe seeds lavishly on the
ground. They are gathered by the
Indians who bring them to the
trading posts for shipping to east
ern markets. The gatherer is paid
for his labor in harvesting the nuts.
The species of two-leafed scrub
pine which produces the edible
seed known as the pinon. Is found
scattered through the four south
western states of New Mexico, Ari :
zona, Utah and Colorado. 1t oc.
ours, associated with cedar and
juniper trees, in dry. rocky soils at
attitudes between five and nine
thousand feet. The tree has a
shriveled. crooked trunk. a spher-
ical crown and reaches height of
about 16 feet. 1t grows slowly and
sometimes attains an age of over
800 years. Its scientific name is
Pinus edulis.
1t is commonly believed that the
pinon bears only once every five
years. 1t is true that exceptionally

VERSE OF TODAY
FREEDOM.

Up on the lookout in the wind and scet;
out in the woods of tamarack and pine;
Down in the hot slopes of the dripping mine,
We dreamed of you. and oh. the dream was sweet
And now you bless the felon food eat.
And make each iron cell sacred shrine;
For when your love thrills in the blood like wine
The very stones grew holy to our feet!
We shall be faithful, though we march with death
And singing storm the battlements of wrong:
ones life is such little thing to give:
So we shall fight as long have BREATH
Love in cur hearts, and lips song:
Without you it were better not to live!

The novel machine, on which this
woman inventor holds the patent,
is power driven with a capacity OF
about so pounds of shelled nuts q
day. The efficiency and simplicity
or the machine are remarkable
the cleaned and sorted nuts pour
ing into a hopper and flowing out
in a stream of white whole meats
In the basement factory at her
home Mrs. Spitz alone shelled and
marketed 10000 pounds of pinons
last year. She markets the nut
in cardboard cartons and glass jars.
The food value of the pinon IL
3,142 calories per pound This is
twice the value of an equal weigh,
Of dried beans, over four times
that of boiled eggs and half again
as much more as pound of pea
nuts. The shelled nut is composed
Of 2.59 per cent water. 1898 per
cent protein, $3.50 per cent fa
1920 per cent carbohydrates (su-
gars starches, etc.) and 26S per
cent ash.
The use of the nut seems to be
unlimited. The pinon adds a deli
cious and harmonizing flavor to
most food It is often served by
fastidious chefs in vegetable soups
and in the dressing Of baked fowl.
In salads 1t combines with all fruits
and vegetables and is used in all
sorts of confections and pastry
The ninon praline Is one Of the
most popular nut novelties. As a
diet for persons afflicted with Ger.
tain kidney ailments the pinon is
said to be excellent.
AS an industry the pinon har-
vesting and marketing Is destined
to become one of New MeXico's
great commercial enterprises. Lit
tie known throughout the eastern
Fart of the country until last year,
the nut has created u demand for
itself that the state has found diff
ficult to supply. Other states in
which the pine tree bears edible
seeds will soon turn to their for
