Cinnamon.
The home of the cinnamon tree is
Ceylon, though H grows in Malabar and
other parts of the East Indies. It some
times attains a height of 25 or 30 feet,
I and In this stage of growth it Is often a
foot and a half In thickness. The
flowers are nnle yellow on the inner side,
and grayish without, and the fruit is
shaped like an neorn. The tree is culti
vated with great care and lnbor by the
Ceylonese, there being in Ceylon about
12,000 acres devoted to the cinnamon
gardens, eacli acre yielding from fifty to
five hundred pounds of dried bark. The
soli best ndnpted to this culture is that
which is light and sandy, and the
gathering commences when the tree is
about seven years old.
The main bark is not disturbed, but
the peeling-knlfo is chiefly applied to
the young shoots and Smaller branches,
which are cut down to the wood longi
tudinally, when the narrow Btrlp is
lifted off. The outer or scarf skin is
scraped off and thrown away. The best
cinnamon is taken from the scions
which spring up around the roots, grow
ing to a height of 10 feet, and having
the thickness of a walking-stick.
As the strips dry in the sun they curl
up in 'the form of quills, and the smaller
are inserted into the larger. There are
two seasons for the cinnamon harvest,
April and November, the former being
the most important. The spice is im
ported in bales, the goods being made up
into bundles. It is In demand by cooks
and confectioners, and to a less extent
by druggists, who dispense it when
prescribed by physicians as a tonic, and
in cases as of nausea and vomiting.
The oil of cinnamon Is extracted by
distillation from the small and broken
pieces, and from the inferior qualities.
It can likewise be made from the fruit
and leaves of the plant It is generally
prepared in Ceylon. In the distillation
two oils pass over, one lighter and the
other heavier than water. The oils vary
in color, from cherry-red to yellow, ' the
latter being most valuable.
Cinnamon, before being packed for
the market, is examined and assorted
by tasters, whose office is not an enviable
one. They find the chewing trouble
some and disagreeable, as the burning
effect of the bark leaves the tongue and
lips in a sort of blistered condition.
Cassia, in most of its forms, is an in
ferior cinnamon. It is not exactly true,
as has been said, that it is best for pur
chasers to order pure cinnamon, to
avoid being supplied with cassia. The
latter, especially iu its ground state,
answers some purposes better than the
other. It is thicker and coarser than
cinnamon, darker in color, and with a
somewhat different taste ; it is less close
ly quilled, and breaks shorter than cin
namon., It comes largely from China,
also from Calcutta, Batavia, and the
Philippine Islands.
It is a singular fact that the root of
the cinnamon tree yields a small quanti
ty of camphor. Adulterations of ground
cinnamon are not unfrequently made
by means of wheat flour, sago, meal,
and arrow root. The monopoly of the
commerce of the best kinds of cinnamon
has been in the hands of certain private
capitalists since 1840.
53" The tomato, or love apple, was
first known in South America. It has
been for years common in Italian
cookery. In 1803 it was grown at De
troit and at Fort Wayne, by a man of
the name of Colonel Hamtramck, and
in 1807 it was grown by Judge Thomas,
in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. The French
stewed it at Kaskaskia, in 1807, proba
bly obtained from Thomas, and about
that period it was brought into Ohio.
In 1817 it was a salad or dressing for
beef or roast steak In Wallingford, Con
necticut. It was grown largely, at first,
as an ornamental plant, under the name
of love apple. And even In Bristol,
England, In 1835 it was grown as a
' flowering plant, its deep crimson-colored
fruit being counted gems of great beau
ty. O" Farmers need a breed of fast walk
lug horses, both for their own use and
for sale. A slow walking horse is a
nuisance, whether plowing, harrowing
or harvesting on the farm, or for cart,
truck, dray, saddle or carriage use in
cities. Careful attention to this feature
would pay better in the long run than
breeding for trotters.
