The grapefruit appearing on the and| American breakfast table may ‘in the future be one coaxed to ripeness while reposing in a frigid tempera- ture of some refrigerating plant. announced today, after completion of a series of experiments begun in 1917, that, contrary to the prevalent opinion, citrus fruit will ripen off the tree, and, like pears and apples will develop a superior eating qual ity after a period of one_to three months in cold storage. The fruit. however, must be suitably “cured” before being placed in cold storage, |/ it was determined, this curing process, involving keeping the fruit in a temperature of about 70 de- of two to three transferred to a degrees for a grees for a period weeks. It is then temperature of 32 longer storage. The government experts found, it was said, that, while the sugar con- tent of the fruit remained about the same, the acid content decreased mark- edly during the storage, and apparently the bitterness was broken down, thus enhancing the palatableness of the fruit. The process was also sald to elim- inate the tendency of the fruit to “pit” or form the sunken spots which ometimes appear on the skin and impair the fruit's market value. RESERVES TRADE RIGHTS.
