Desiccates (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dries

'desiccates' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for dries that I've seen before include "Airs, desiccates" , "Rides (anag.)" , "Hardline Tories" , "Removes moisture from" , "Loses moisture" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Times.
