Pears have a thin skin which is easily broken, so that the fruit can become contaminated Tomatoes should never be served raw, not even in salad, those who Insist on taking the risk of eating them should tell the boy to plunge the frult for a moment in boiling water, and then remove the skin (which comes of quite easily after this treatment).

Peralamons should be absolute- ly barred, since they are a dámy fruit, and absorb germs through the smallest crack. in the akin, and very few persimmons remain absolutely intact after transport.

Local oranges should be avoided since it is an age-old practise among Chinese gardeners to inject this fruit with water (when green.), In order to make it fat and juicy. Ithe water used were altered, this practise would not matter. but water from streams is often used,
