The mangos were perfectly delicious. Never in 
Mexico did I ever taste better, and I am delighted 
to know they are being grown in this country, for 
, now they will be in the market, here; (Eleanor Lan- 
. sing, wife of Secretary of State ) 
Of course, we found Davy's Favorite the best of 
the varieties! But really I never ate such fine 
mangos either in Mexico or the West Indies. The 
flavor seems equally as good and the pulp thicker 
and less stringy. Mr. Burleson joins me In appre- 
ciation. (Adele S. Burleson, wife of Postmaster 
General . ) 
We found the mangos which you so kindly sent 
most delicious. This fruit would add exceedingly 
to our list of edible fruits. (Mrs. Josephus 
Daniels, wife of Secretary of the Navy.) 
This summer (1920), a mango water ice* was 
served at the Cosmos Club and the comments of the 
guests secured In a similar way to that followed in 
the mingo fruit test, and although the recipe used 
contained in it a considerable proportion of lemon 
juice the flavor was sufficiently mango In character 
to make It an interesting test. 
The comment on this lew was somewhat less favor- 
able as a whole than the comment on the fruit Itself. 
Perhaps my opinion may be accepted as even more 
valuable, If I say that I liked the mango ice so 
much that I duplicated the order. (John Bassett 
Moore, former councilor of State Department.) 
Delicious. (Edwin Wendt . ) 
In spite of a faint turpentine taste, the mango 
ice was not bad. I think I should be able to pass 
a better judgment had I eaten of the fruit itself. 
(Wm. Drlnnlum. ) 
* Recipe: 1 gal. mango juice 2f lb. sugar 
1| pt. lemon juice 1 gal. water. 
Since this variety is 'cling' 50 mangos were cut 
In half and the juice extracted by pressing the seeds 
m a rlcer. The other Ingredients were added to the 
gallon of mango juice, and the mixture frozen as any 
water ice.
