OLIVE CULTURE IN CALIFORNIA.
The Dual Phases, Prosaic and Poetic, of
the Growing Industry.

The Dual Phases, rrOsaic and Poetic, OF
the Growing Industry.
The prosaic side of olive culture in Cal
iforna is that it has been II money max
liihg crop for some years, and that as time
advances and the olives grown in this state
are sent east in larger quantities the in
dustry becomes more lucrative. There is
more attention now given to olives as Il
source of horticulture revenue than ever
before.
But there in poetic side to olive grow
ing as well, and any kind of arboriculturc
which can appeal to both the prosaic and
the poetic side of mans nature must be
deemed singularly fortunate. Sentiment
il it be genuine and healthy, is as real as
the multiplication table or the binomial
theoren, and il is an open question wheth
er it is not often as valuable from the
utiltariau standpoint.
There is something fanciful. something
oriental, about the olive which is shared
by no other tree unless it be the fig tree or
the cedars of Lebanon. Hebrew poetry,
which we know best from that wonderful
collection. the Old Testament. is full of
illusions and references to the olive. Da-
vid the accepted author of the Psalms,
says, 81 am like green olive tree in the
house of God" jeremiah. the doleful
prophet, says, 1.-The Lord called thy name
green olive tree, fair and of goodly
fruit" and Hosea, foretelling the glory of
Israel, says, ellis branches shall spread
and his beauty shall he as the olive tree. "
Even in the New Testament. in the won
derful vision of John which we call the
Revelation, of the two witnesses it is said
"These are the two olive trees and the
tyQycandlesticks standing before the God
~ the earth and IL any man will hurt
them fire proceedeth out of their mouth
and devoureth their enemies"
A parallel has not infrequently been
drawn between the foothills of California
and the hill country of Palestine, and the
spread Of the olive will increase the SINH
larity. The olive is tree well suited for
the hills, for it grows with very little soil
and with almost no care. 1t is no exag
geration to say that the time will come
wlfen the barren hillsides and slopes shall
be clothed with the rich green of the olive
when the row unused valleys shall be
made vocal with the noise of the olive
press, and when the oil of the dark green
fruit shall be as plentiful and in as gen
eral use as it now is in Italy, Greece and
