Allen arrived home from eastern Wash­
ington a few days ago where he huilt
end operated a prune evaporator this
season.
He was so well pleased with
the prune outlook in that country that
he secured the contract of an orchard of
20000 prune trees for five years. The
reputation of the Allen evaporator seems
to have gone abroad, for a letter was
received a few days ago from the secre­
tary of agriculture of Cape Town, Africa,
asking for information respecting it.
