Chicago, Octoher 14, 1899. Mr. B. M. Lelong, Secretary Slate Board of Horticulture, Sacramento, Cal.: Dear Sir: We should have replied to yours of July 28th before this. However, we wanted to give you positive information as to whether there were any established houses in the East who were preparing the citron of com- merce for market. We are now in a position to inform you that this article, which is shipped from Europe in brine, is very small and shipped only as an experiment, which, as far as we can learn, has been a failure. The citron commonly used by confectioners, bakers, and candy-makers is imported already prejiared. This, however, should not prevent California growers from raising citron in that State in larger (juantities than they do now, and pre- jtaring it for market right in their own State. Like a great many industries, California would soon head the list as a citron-i>roducing State and would no dt)ubt at no distant date supply the demand of at least the United States. Yours truly, JOHN ZUCCA & CO. French method of protecting the limbs of tlie Citron and its fruit.
