A Practical Treatise on the Culture of Silk: Adapted to the Soil and Climate of the United States (Classic Reprint) by F G Comstock (Paperback / softback, 2016)

Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on the Culture of Silk: Adapted to the Soil and Climate of the United States To separate the seed, put the fruit into a tub, or other convenient vessel, and with the hands, or a pounder, mash them till they are incorporated into a common mass. Then pour water upon it and stir it briskly till a separation takes place between the seed and the pulp. After the separation has taken place, the water should be poured off, taking with it the false seeds which will rise to the surface. The wash ings should be repeated until the seed is clean. Rub bing it through a sieve, with meshes of sufficient size to admit the passage of the seed will facilitate the operation.
