REPORT OF COMMITTEE. 



To the Execviive Committee: 



Gentlemen: Your Committee on Lemons would beg leave to 

 report that they examined a large number of lemons placed before 

 them, but the time for work was too short to do the subject justice. 



They first examined the fruit for size, taking for a standard a lemon 

 that would weigh from four to five ounces, marking it ten; if the 

 lemon was either smaller or larger than this standard the mark was 

 reduced one for every half ounce above five or below four. 



The fruit was then cut, and thickness of rind, texture of pulp, and 

 number of seeds were marked, ten being considered perfect, and fruit 

 inferior on any of these points was marked accordingly. 



At this point one-half of each lemon was used for a lemonade, 

 which, after standing a few hours, was tested for bitterness. About 

 one-third of the fruit was rejected as having a bitter rind. 



This report is not made as complete as it was intended to make it, 

 as the fruit was not in condition for making thorough tests. Most of 

 it was picked from the tree just before being sent to the exhibition, 

 while a few samples had been picked for from four to six weeks, and 

 were thoroughly sweated. These few samples had a thinner rind,
