Caaflo Vol.t Prone Punctured Properly. J. H. Hammer has Invented an ap paratus with whloh he amenta tn rin away with the present expensive and unsatisfactory system of dipping prnuea in lye before drying In order to check the skin so that gases generated In dry ing may ercape and prevent bloating of the fruit. The business nart nf tho mm. chine is modeled on the plan of the bar rel witn knives protrndlng from the In side, in which our gentle ancestors were wont to roll orlmlnals down hill, and the effect on the Drunea la intended tn, be the same as the aforesaid barrel had on the criminal, 1. e., puncture his skin with numerous holes of varinua afza- Tbe machine consists of a cylinder open ai eacn end, three feet long by sixteen inches In diameter, thn 1naM iiirfum of which is thickly studded with needle line points about 3-10 of an Inch In length. The cylinder is set in a framo at an inoline. At the front eod of the frame is a hopper into which the prunes are fed. Between the homier and the puncture cylinder la a screen maae ot wires stretched lengthwise a short distance apart, the object of which Is to romove from the fruit all foreign substance aa it passes through to the cylinder. At the other end sf tha ma chine is a platform on which Is placed the tray to receive the prunes after they have passed through the machine and which is agitated by means of an eccentric Tne cylinder and screen are fastened together and are rapidly ro-' tated by a crank. The prunea pass through the screen into tha cylinder and on down into the tray set ready to receive tbem, in their passage receiv ing: a number of Dricka from tha nlnann the Inside of the cylinder, accomplish ing the same result as the dipping in lye produces, that la. breaking tha akin of the fruit without the objectionable teatnrej attending that process. Mr. Hammer has thoroughly tried tha ma chine and finds that it works perfectly and much faster than the old way. Ap plication for patent was made in No vember last, and is now Dendlns. Mr. Hammer and a Mr. Burrows, re cently from the Willamette valley, are fitting up the Wells dryer on North A Btreet, and expect to have it ready for business in about ten days. - The Mail has the news.
