The history of dried fruits is ancient. ‘Their origin was certainly in the hot climates of countries where the sun provided a natural means of preseryvâ€" ing fruits in season for later use. Cenâ€" turies later in cur modern times most dried fruits are still dried in the sun where it shines eternallyâ€"if we are to believe the Californians. At least it shines during the prune, apricot, raisin, fig and date season. In other less fortunate parts of the counâ€" try the process of dehydration is used to some extent. Dehydrated fruits when soaked and cooked resemble more nearly fresh fruit in colour and filaâ€" Uses for Dates, Raisins, Prunes, Figs, Apricots Tart Prunes Come from Oregon. .

Dates Grown in California and . Arizona Peaches, apples and apricots are alâ€" lowed to ripen on trees and are then placed on trays under which sulphur is burned. The use of the sulphur preâ€" vents darkening and fermentation and protects the fruit from insects. There is a difference of cpinion as to whether the sulphur is an objection as far as the health standpoint is concerned. Prunes are dried after dipping in boilâ€" ing lye and washing thoroughly. Someâ€" times they are dipped after drying in prune juice, glycerine or salt to make them sterile. Raisins are prepared from grapes especially grown for this purpose and are dried on the stems. Some of the large raisins are sold in clusters and cthers sseded. The small seedless raisins are particularly conâ€" venient to use. They have replaced alâ€" most entirely the imported currants, which are really small seedless raisins. Figs are now produced in large numâ€" bers in California and rival the foreign products. The production of dates in California and Arizona is increasing, and there are now to be found in the markets "fresh dates" which are deliâ€" cate and delicious in favour. Tart Prunes There are enormous quantities of dgried fruit eaten in this country. Over a bilion pounds are produced yearly in the United States and of this number more than half are raisins and more Each year Jack Miner tries a new expsriment studying the migration of birds and their knowledge of travel, saiys The Mail and Empire. Last spring, with the coâ€"operation of the Manitcba Gvernment and the Departâ€" ment of Interior, Ottawa, with Mr. Carl Munn of the Hamilton Bird Society, and the Winnipeg Free Press bearing the expense of crates and express, he caught twentyâ€"five Canadian geese and shipped them via fast express to Winâ€" nipeg. There they were met with a truck and taken to Grant Lake, in that vicinity, where they were released with a flock of several western wild geese. one month later one of these tagged geese was reported killed by a native in Northern Manitoba, near the western shore of Hudson Bay; but ncthing more was heard from them until December 20th, when one was shot at Grandy, North Carolinaâ€"its usual winter home. In cther words, it left the western geese and went back to North Carolina, along the Atlantic seabcard, to join its parents, sisters, and brothers, where it has always spent its winters. The geese that visit the Jack Miner bird sanctuary at Kingsâ€" ville. Ontario, Canada, lccated 25 miles of Detroif Mich., in the spring, mostly winter along the Atâ€" lantic coast, chiefly around Carrituck lantic Ssound The report of this gcose going back to its old winter quarters was a surâ€" prise to Jack Miner because he believed that when it travelle@ nearly 1,500 miles in an express car, and was reâ€" leased with western geese, it would stay with the western flight, and perhaps be shot west of the Mississippi. Comâ€" menting further, Jack Miner said this incident is something for scientists to carefully study, in order to fathom the knowledge of this goose, which led it to spend the summer in the Arctic region after being released in the Northwest, and then find its way back to its usual winter quarters in North How do Geese Find Their Way to Winter Quarters than a third are prunes. Oregon as well as California furnishes us with some of the prunes. Oregon prunes are more tart than the California variety. The use of dried fruits is an excellent custom, as they provide us with very valuable nutriments as well as with inâ€" expensive delicacies for our table.

It is a popular belief that the cliâ€" mate of the world in various places is changing; that arid areas were once fertile and had plenty of rain; that the winters used to be colder in the north: that some parts of the world are now much hctter than they were in bygone years.
