WILL MAKE OIL OF MINT.
Not many hereabouts are aware
that an experiment is being made. in
Goderieh township in ihe manufact-
ure of oil of mint, The idea owes
its origin to Mr. Albert Jervis, son
of Mr. and Mrs. 0 E. Jervis of
town, Mit who has been farming in
the State of Indiana of late
years. He was , engaged some-
what in the growing of mint, but
owing to the excessive rainfall the
crop proved a failure and he came
back to the old home township to
see what the prospeots were here.
The mint—there are two kinds of
mint be it knowa, spearmint and
peppermint—Looked good to him and
a test proved so satisfactory that
Mr. Jervis and Messrs. George and
Edward Elliott decided to mea
ure a quantity of the oil: They aa
cordingly had a large tank and a
quantity or galvanized piping made
and this with the Seiler of a port-
able outfit is all the plant they le
quire for their experhaent.
They-. shipped their Disk "run", to
Toronto on Wednesda3, and expett to
received the eeeult the latter part d'O
the Week. 11 it is up to eapeota,
