For making white pepper the berries remain on the ^•ine until they have ripened to a bright-red color. Then they are bruised and rubbed in water until the seeds can be separated from the pulp. The ground seeds are white pepper. Nearly all the white pepper made in this manner is sold in China. The white pepper, so called, sold in America, is made by rubbing the berries until the black, outer skin is removed. Nutmeg is the seed of an evergreen-tree. The nutmeg of commerce was obtained at first in... the Banda Islands, but the trees are now to be found in many parts of the Straits Settle- ments. When the fruit ripens it splits open so that the outer skin can be removed. Next to the outer skin is a pithy layer that is stripped off and dried; this is the mace of commerce. There remains a nut with a hard shell. The nuts are dried in ovens for several weeks, the shells are broken, and the shrivelled kernel, carefully cleaned, is the nutmeg of com- merice. Cinnamon is thought to be a native of Ceylon, but it is now cultivated in the Straits Settlements.
