that early there were oraStlc

COAST IS SUITABLE
FOR PASSION fruit
Nine Edible Varieties of Aus
tralian Product Grown
in California.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN DIEGO, Calf, June 27.-Be-
cause a famed German scientist who
was here for his health desired to eat
fruit for which he cultivated taste in
Australia, a new industry seems pos
sible for limited portion of the, United
States.
The scientist is DR.. H. x. w.SKumm,
geographer, explorer and philanthropist,
and his newest hobby has demonstrated
that the tropical fruit Of the passion
vine can be grown in parts of America
suitable to the growing of avocadoes.
DR.. Kumm has made 9 of the 10
known edible varieties of the passion
fruit bear here and Is working with
considerable success on cross pollination
to improve the size and reduce the num-
ber of seeds.
Give Two or Three Crops.
The varieties in production are ever
green and give two or three crops year.
Tests have shown that an acre planted
in passion fruit will yield from seven to
eight tons yearly, against the average
of three to four tons Of the varieties
grown in Australia.
Some of the passion fruit on DR..
Kumm's plantation is shaped and looks
like the banana, while another variety
is round and as large as a grapefruit.
At the outset of his work three years
ago, DR.. Kumm was encouraged by Lu-
ther Burbank, who had been expert
menting with the fruit, but found his
own gardens were too far n0rth.
Given Blanket Permit.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has given him a blanket
permit for the importation Of passion
vines, and interest in the experimental
work has been taken by the Smithsonian
Institution.
The commercial production of the
fruit has been limited to marketing Of
samples of sirup and jam and jelly
f1avorings in San Diego. AS the expert
mental garden could not meet the de-
mand, the samples were withdrawn.
The passion vine Is so named because
its flowers bear fanciful resemblance
to the cross.
The astringent taste Of the fruit
smacks of the pineapple, apricot and
loquat. The vine grows 10 feet high.
