dine grape which is a native of the State 
need only to be known to make a place for 
itself on the market. A satisfactory 
method of putting up this product has 
been developed by Mr. Chas. Dearing of 
the United States Department of Agricul¬ 
ture. 
The manufacture of satisfactory cit¬ 
rus products has been only partly solved, 
but the possibilities seem so great that, 
in spite of discouraging failures and par¬ 
tial successes the problem claims the time 
and thought of scientists and manufac¬ 
turers. The fact that in other sections of 
the country the commercial production of 
other fruit products has long since passed 
the experimental stage indicates that this 
industry backed by the required capital, 
necessary training and perseverance can 
be entered upon with a minimum chance 
of failure.
