MILLIONS IN OLIVES.

A California Grower Obtains S1,66a
From One Acre Alone.
POMONA. CAL, Dec. 1S.-John s. Calkins
of this city is an enthusiast upon the SUBJ
ject Of olive culture. He says that il offers
wonderful profits, and that the soil aud
climate Of California are particularly ap-
plicable for II. In citing the profits he saws
that Ellwood Cooper states that he tested
one of his orchards years old from the
cutting which yielded ten large bottles OF
oil TO the tree; 81 per bottle Is the present
wholesale market price for California oil
this would give 81 $50 per acre Of 1903 trees.
Frank Kimball of National City, San
Diego county, states that he paid neigh
Dor 900 per acre for his olives from trees
less than years old from the cutting; that
he had taken tweuty-three gallons from q
tree less than q years old; these, IL made
into pickles, and sold for 70 cents. per gallon,
would bring 81, 1868 per acre for that year
that he had picked from tree, at the old
San Diego mission, 1872 gallons Of olives IN
single year; that tree was probably 100
years old.
Mr.. Calkins believes that IN time olive
culture is destined 20 become one OF the
greatest industries In the state.

bear story, which is amply corroborated by
his neighbors. The other day he was out
deer hunting in his cedar canoe. The deer
frequently come down to the shore OF the
sound. Before he had gone far he saw a
bear up fir tree on the waters edge He
pulled directly under the bear and fired.
Bruin fell into the canoe on his back Nell
son scrambled out and ran for his life to a
neighbours house. Here he secured help.
On returning the bear wac missed. Search
revealed him again in the tree with the
canoe on his back like a coat. Another shot
brought him down dead. In getting out Of
the canoe the bear wedged his head under
the seat aud couldu'6 extrtcate himself
from his unwelcome covering.

ton against putting into graveyard or
other monumental pile the States por-
ton Of the direct war tax, which IT rec
ommends shall be invested in soldiers
homes, where their widows and orphans
may be sheltered.
This is to be approved for two rea-
sons: ID Because roofs over the worthy
living are more befitting thoughtful
civilization than rooAess piles over the
dead. (2.) Because by putting the
money to this use check will be placed
on frenzy for cemetery DETACHMENT in
the guise Of soldiers monuments The
badness OF so many of these must make
gallant hearts below them want to rise
and fight another war
