SATURDAY. NOVEMBER W, 1904.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Dibble were
in from Silver creek a day or two
this week. Mr. Dibble has not
yet fully recovered from his recent
sickness, but is improving.
By means of experiments con
ducted by Professor I’ernot at the
Oregon Agricultural College it has
been demonstrated that prunes and
other fruit juices can be kept al
most indefinitely by sterilizing and
putting up in airtight bottles, and
the juices have no “cooked” flavor.
Prune juice has been kept in the
college laboratory for three years
in perfect condition. After describ
ing the manner of preparing the
juices, Professor Pernot says con
cerning the cost and value of the
produet of one of our most common
fruits, of which a large quantity is
annually wasted:
Cider apples can generally be
obtained for 10 cents per bushel.
One bushel will make at leai-t three
gallons of cider. It this were sold
al 20 cents per quart bottle, the
cider from one bushel of apples
would give a gross receipt of $2 40,
and the cost of preparing the
twelve bottles of cider for market
would not exceed 75 cents at most.
There is a constant demand for
sweet cider, and an extensive mar
ket for it. The prosperity of our
producers depend upon the utiliza
tion of all their products, but there
is entirely too much of our bounti
ful supply of fruit wasted.
