HRAPEFRUIT is almost ex-
NJ clusively an American fruit,
judging from recent statis-
tics quoted by the United States
Department of Agriculture. Uncle
Sam grows SO per cent of the
worlds supply of this popular
fruit. while Cuba, our most i'm
portant single competitor, pro-
duces only about 2 per cent of
the world crop.
A great increase in our produc-
tion is indicated for the near
future because only about 43 per
cent Of the trees planted have
come to bearing age. Florida now
produces about six-sevenths of
the United States crop, California
about one-twelfth, Texas five per
cent and Arizona one per cent.

Grapefruit hearts and grapefruit

products represent some of the
best grapefruit available since
growers for canneries pick the
fruit only when it is fully ripened
and the rich juices have been
properly matured in the sun.
A very popular way of serving
grapefruit in the daily menu is
in a fruit salad which provides the
last course in the meal, instead
of a sweet dessert. Dentists ad-
vocate a last course of fruit as
being the best protection to the
teeth. as we'll as adding the neces-
