From India they were brought to Asia Minor by the Arabs. The Crusaders brought lemons to Europe, where they have since been extensively cultivated in’ Italy; Sicily, Spain and Portugal. - Lemons cantiot survive a frost.) Hence their cultivation in-the United | States 1s limited to” lower Florida and lower California. Since the great frost of 1894-5 the culture of temons In Florida has-been almost! ‘abantioned, but in California , the} // Temon crop has increased to severa thousand carloads:a year.The Cali-! fornia crop thus supplies at present! the bulk of the lemon consumptio: of the United States, but the Italian = a] imports are very heavy. | _ « The ‘last monthly summary of Commerce and Finance in -the| United States prepared by the) Department of Comimerce and ‘Labor gives the imports of lemons for August, 1906, as 10,483,489. pounds, valued at $310,391, an increase over the corresporiding month of 1905, when there were imported 8,028,187 pounds, valued at $183,683. ‘There is a tariff on lemons, levied for the protection of American lemons, against imported lemons. Otherwise lemons would He cheaper in New York, since the freight rate on lemons. by rail from California is} higher than the ocean freight from Sicily, where, most of the: imported | * lemons are shipped. 1 The word lemon Is derived from the Persian word limun. tially tht same word is used in other languages. j Botanically the lemon is a species of the genus of plants of the order eae. The same genus includes the orange, lime, shaddock, pomelo, —forbidden_friit,_citron.—Broadly,_these-are called citron fruits, alt of which are pulpy, with a spongy rind and smooth seeds.--The leaves, | tind and flowers contain volatile oil and emit a fragrance. Lemons are usually propagated from cuttings, not from seed. Inj} California they are--rafted_on-harder-stock-such-as-the-sour-orange-or/ citrus trifoliata. The tart flavor of lemons is due to the presence of citric atid (O H) (COOH) 3 + H 2 O, a crystalline organic substance. Citric acid is, used in calico printing as well as in beverages. It is also valuable in. com- bination with magnesium, quinine and lithia, It is a monoxy-tribosic | acid, melting at 100 degrees centigrade and changing at 175. degrees to! ~aconitic acid, which is unsaturated tribosic acid. . | Lemons ripen in the winter time. Left on the trees, they do nol! mature as well as when stored in cool, dark rooms. When so stored! they keep well. } _ Substan-| utai iC ac “ The FIFTY GREATEST A were the stron ‘The mov, at & loath to take I stant the siwa stabh + Geve; dalled tnemMe efter EVENTS jn HISTORY By Albert Payson lerhune No, 50.—“‘CHINESE"!
