FRUIT PACKING

A new method Of treating citrus

The new process lis called BroE-

It Is claimed that the new pro-
cess for treating the fruit retards
shrinkage, and that Brogdexed cit
rus will draw the best prices on
the market. It was invented by
4. nj. Brogden. formerly Of Flort-
da but now q resident OF Califor-

Cost Of Hunting Oil

IT'S all very well to ask why an oil prospec-
tor who failed didn't drive his well little
deeper when a later proSpector comes along
and in a couple of hundred feet or so fertilizer
strikes oil and wealth, but the cost of those
couple of hundred feet may seem discouragingly
great to a man who has sunk tens of thousands
of dollars in futile drilling that yielded no sign
of petroleum.
To begin with before the drilling has started
in the Oklahoma field, for instance, there is
an excavation job that costs around 5000.
There are three or four boilers to erect to
provide the steam power for the drilling. There
is the natural gas to run the boilers, the der
rick to erect and some of these run as high
as 100 feet.
1t is estimated that 100000 cubic feet of gas
are necessary to keep steam up for "a hours.
and that SO 900 900 cubic feet are required to
drill the average well. Water, always prob
lem, is an expensive item, the consumption
averaging around 5000 barrels a day, or.
roundly 140 900 barrels to drill a well.
Then, last but not least, there is the item
of drilling itself. The usual charge for a
rotary well drill, with the usual 85a Inch ex-
tension, is $11 foot ST. 500 for a $500
foot well.
1t is easy to see why man operating on q
small margin can soon become diScouragingly
far in debt in his efforts to reach oil and aban-
donment of what seems like hopeless UNDER
taking, with the goal unknown but neverthe-
less real just q comparatively short distance
away.

Snber-Heated MIX.

ONE type of milk preparation that gives Ice
cream q fluffy body which it will hold to
some extent, even when the temperature is
below the freezing point. has been found to
work successfully. The product called super
heated" milk Is made through the introduction
of live steam into milk after it has been previ-
ously brought almost to the boiling point.
The milk is prepared in vacuum tank, much
condensed milk is, and when it has been
reduced to the required consistency of evapo-
rated milk live steam is turned directly into it.
It takes on body" very rapidly at this point
and the operator of the "pan," as the con-
densing apparatus is called must act very
quickly There Is less than a minute leeway
between a milk which is too thin and one
which splits-that is. breaks into sweet curd.
Super-heated milk when made into cream
requires no additional cooking and Is prepared
as ice cream through the addition Of navorfng
and sugar

ished, they were to bring me down to see the
long line of handshakerS.
Then afterward we would have family talk
fest AS I have said, the Coolidges do not talk
q great deal, but Cousin Grace loves to hear
the home town news, and she always asks
million questions. When she came from the
reception she was wearing an equisite fame
cOlored gown brocaded with dull blue velvet
flowers
"Oh how beautiful" exclaimed "You look
perfectly lovely Cousin Grace"
She laughed happily and pirouetted about to

"Oh do you remember the day we trimmed
hats for a rummage sale in Burlington" she
asked
I should say I did remember. That was the
day Cousin Grace told about the first time
she heard Calvin speak, She was teaching
then and he was young lawyer Every one
was reminiscing and Grace told how Calvin
said, I'VE mount the ladder rung by rung."
His voice awfully twangy in those days."
she said. Lots worse than it is now" The
ladies were all amused when she initiated him
and declared that he certainly had mounted
the ladder rung by rung" YES" Cousin Grace
said, 1T always thought there was something
prophetic about that speech"
WELL, we talked about the rummage sale and
the people in Burlington. Then Cousin
Grace went to her room and changed to a stun
ming dark street costume.
She was very sweet to while stayed at
the White House. Once she took me to Airing
ton to see the Unknown Soldiers grave. And
we drove through traffic like fire engine. An
other day she sent me to Keith's to sit In the
White House box with the best-looking Secret
Service man in Washington He was a bache-
Tor, too. She let me wear her white jade ear
rings and her evening wrap.
1t was wonderful the way Cousin Grace adapt
ed herself to life in the White House. At home
in Northampton she never had q servant. She
cooked and darned stockings, and even did the
washing herself. But in the White House she
had 10 domestic servants. A lady's maid, q
secretary and a butler! And any number of
cooks and chambermaids!
Cousin Calvin had a valet, too. Perhaps you
think, since he always dresses simply, that my
cousin hasn't many clothes Well, they say he
had more suits than any other President
Cousin Grace was always smart and stylish
that felt like a little country cousin Of the
story books
That was my first, last and only visit to the
White House, but the incidents of that one
visit remain very vivid. often think of what
Cousin Calvin said to me. "Now, Marion, don't
talk to any newspaper people, nor have your
picture taken. I object to publicity"
obeyed that injunction untn now. And now

SPANISH KING
ACTS AS HOST
TO HISTORIANS
Distinguished Scholars Are
at Meeting Being Held
in Seville.
BY WILLIAM III. LANDER,
United Press STAFF Correspondent

SEVILLE, Spain, May 2-The
third international congress Of His
pano-American history and geo
graphy met here today in the pres
ence of distinguished historians and
scholars from the three Americas
and Spain.
The congress is being held under
the patronage of King Alfonso
XIII, who will preside at the formal
Inauguration Saturday, shortly be-
fore returning to Madrid. The duke
of Alba is chairman of the executive
committee.
King Alfonso will be host at a
farewell banquet to the city Of Sc
vile Saturday night, and after
wards he will attend a ball given
by officials of the Iberian-American
exposition, which is about to close.
The greatest wealth of historical
material dealing with the COLOMBIA
ton of the new world is in Seville;
and at nearby Huelva and Palos
are places intimately linked with
the life and career of Christopher
Columbus. All these points will be
visited by the delegates.
One of the most interesting as
poets during the congress will be
the thesis to be delivered by the
peruvian historian-engineer, Luis
Ulloa, concerning the discovery of
America.
Ulloa believes that Columbus, a
Catalan and not an Italian, already
had discovered America before he
made his trip in 1912, under the
patronage of Fernando and Isabel.
