APPLES INTO CIDER.
Although special varieties of apples are used for cider making in England and Normanby, a healthful, popular, and not necessarily "heady" beverage can be made from most varieties of fruit grown for dessert and cooking. But to market such cider as a commercially profitable sideline in draught or in bottle and to increase its consumption, the price to the public must be made" attractive. Serious attention is now being given by Australian apple growers to the turning of fruitunsuitable for export into cider. To that end a deputation recently waited on the Federal Government asking for reduction in the excise duty on cider in order to popularise that beverage and turn surplus apples to profitable account. The proposal was sympathetically received.
