the vigilance of the watch was increased
but the robbers hid in the hold and made
their way between the bulkhead and the

employers and employed since there are
no signs of abandoning it, and adds:
IF all will agree to close on Satur-
day afternoon nobody will lose any
trade. The inconvenience to the pur-
chasing public is more imaginary than
real, since the public itself is supposed
to be interested in the holiday, and
soon adaptS itself to the circumstances
The store and office folk will do just
as much work under the half holiday
plan, and they will do it better than if
the hot weeks of summer bring no sec
ular day relief. Sunday will be better
observed. If people can go to baseball
matches and bicycle races and similar
sports on Saturday afternoon, they will
not seek to make a continental Sunday
of the Los Angeles Sabbath day.
Los Angeles is full of immigrants
from the East who would doubtless
cooperate heartily in such a move
ment. But this is a matter in which
from the character of our people San
Jose should lead the way. If the peo-
pie of this city who are favorably dis
posed to merry Saturday afternoon
and quiet Sunday will start the
movement among our business and
get it under way before the schools
close for the summer vacation, so as to
give it a summers trial. Who will
take the lead in the practical work of
starting the plan?

SOMETHING ABOUT OLIVES,
An Industry That Would Prosper in
Sacramento.
now Young Orchards Are Thriving
in the FoothiIIs-Practical
Information.

The olive culture in Central California
is rapidly becoming one of the leading
industries of the farmers. For sew
era1 years past a number of persons in
the southern portion of the State have
made a business of growing olives for
oil and pickles, and have become pros
porous. 1t is a fully settled fact that
the olive viii annually produce a larger
profit than any other known tree.
There is no more care or expense
attached to the cultivation of an olive
grove than there is to any other orch
ard. and the tree will thrive and pro-
duce we'll on moderately good soil. In
fact, the best quality of oil is produced
from the olive tree grown on gravel
or granite soil A liberal depth of soil
and good drainage is required, and
thorough cultivation is necessary.
In the vicinity of Oroville are num-
Der of large groves which have been
producing very profitable crops for sew
eral years Near Auburn, Newcastle,
Loomis, Roseville are a number of very
fine olive groves, ranging from one to
twenty years old. They are thrifty and
producing to the full satisfaction of the
owners.
Mrs. Emily Robinson of Auburn eX-
hibited olive oil from her place at the
Worlds Fair in Chicago and captured
six first prizes. Mr. Cooper also eX-
hibited olive oil from his place at the
Worlds Fair held in Paris, coming in
direct competition with France, Spain
and Italy, and he received one of the
first premiums. We, therefore, need
not fear foreign competition.
Fred Birdsall of this city has a very
large and profitable olive grove of about
80 acres, of which % acres is three years
old and the rest six years. Last year
the income from the six-year-old trees
was sufficient to pay all the expenses
of his grove and left a very handsome
surplus.
In February and March, 1894, the Sac
ramento Olive Company, owned prin-
cipally by Sacramento people, and which
is under the general supervision of w

The Saturday Half-Holiday.

San Jose Herald: We are glad to note
that the recent agitation for Satur-
day half holiday by the Herald has
aroused or re-aWakened interest in
that proposition among our contempo-
raries The press is taking it UP very
generally and thus far we have seen
no dissent from the wisdom and ex-
pediency of the proposition. The Sac
ramento Record Union,' which has
from time to time in the past been an
advocate of the Saturday half holiday,
has an editorial on the subject from
which we Gull the following excerpts:
THE seasons for a half holiday in
each week in addition to the Sunday
holiday are so strong, obvious and ir-
restible that it really seems to be vast
ing time to repeat them. AS far as
those who advocate strict observance
of the first day of the week as a holy
day, on which no secular affairs should
be followed and no public sports or ex-
cursions indulged in, are concerned,
they ought to be the most earnest and
insistent advocates for secular holi-
day.
Given full half holiday on Satur-
day and the excuse for public games on
Sunday would disappear. Sunday OBJ
servance would be far more general
than it is. while men and women who
are compelled to labor full six days in
the week and take their outings on
Sunday or have none would accommo-
date themselves to the new order
There will be just as much trade
prosecuted, just as many goods sold,
just as much food consumed, just as
many exchanges made, just as much
industry prosecuted with a half day Civ
en- over as season of recreation, sport,
excursion or whatever other change
may please men now in the groove, and
kept there If there are not to devote
any part of the first day of the week to
outdoor spoorts and exercises or indul-
gence in leisure, as suits them best.
The half holiday is a step in prog
ress, and social and physical better
ment. 1t is moral advance likewise
1t will bring men to their work on
Monday in better condition for duty
doing and actually more will be ac-
comDlshed by such workers than
where they crowd their recreation into
Sunday. 1t win tend to better our
civilization and to invite to California
more of the desirable home seekers who
regard our present method of making
Sunday a day of sport with something
akin to horror"
We welcome the aid of our Capital
City contemporary in this good work
It gives good reasons for the faith
that is in it regarding this question:
reasons that commend themselves to
the consideration of the best and
strongest element of the people of San
Jose.
We also find vigorous ally in Los
Angeles The Express wishes the
agitation in that city to be pushed so
speedily that it will result in a half
holiday experiment during the present
summer. 1t says that the Saturday
half holiday in the larger cities of the
East has been the rule for a number
of years and must be satisfactory to

olive trees, covering 115 acres. 1t is one
OF the largest olive groves in the State.
For the information of persons propos-
ing to plant olive groves a short de-
scription of the manner in which this
grove has been handled is here given.
This company was very careful in the
selection of its trees The holes were
fully Is inches in depth and diameter;
the ground being plowed twice, each
time u inches deep. AS soon as the
trees We're planted, being a feet apart,
the cultivation commenced, and was
kept up continuously To be more ex-
plicit, the ground between the trees was
cultivated twice during each month. In
February of each year the ground is
plowed twice. Then commences the cul
uvation, which is kept up until Octo-
| Der, and sometimes later. Late in the
fall, or early winter, the trees are pruned
not in the way that many orchardistS
prune, as the trees are not topped, but
all surplus limbs are taken off close to
the butt. In this manner the young
trees are pretty we'll thinned of wood,
but all desirable limbs are allowed to
grow without topping.
During the summer months the trees
are suckered, not broken off, but cut
off with a clean sharp knife. Some 5000
OF the trees, when set out, were two
years from the cutting and 1,300 trees
were three years old. The two-year-old
trees gave the best satisfaction.
The company has never irrigated, de-
pending entirely on cultivation. The
trees when set out We're one-fourth to
| one-half inch in diameter at the butt.
They now range from two inches to four
| inches in diameter Cat the butD and are
| from six to ten feet high. This year at
least 5000 Of the 10000 trees We're lit
orally covered with blooms. The COM
pany will not permit them to bear this
year, as they do not wish to retard the
growth of the trees.
The varieties planted We're the Mis-
sions, Uvaria, Rubra and Pendulina.
They make excellent oil, and average
size pickles. The Manzanillo Neradilla
Blanco and Sivillano are very fine grow
ers and produce a fine, large pickle olive
and make good oil. The Sivillano is the
| largest known olive.
That which has been accomplished by
the Sacramento Olive Company and
other olive growers can be accomplished
Vate thoroughly and use good business
| judgment
There are thousands of acres of land
along the foothills and the rolling land
! in Sacramento County, from Gait to
Michigan Bar, and about Folsom, are
just as good olive land as is found in
Spain, Italy or elsewhere, and any far
mer who has ten acres or more of we'll
drained land can plant olive trees and
care for them without materially in
terfering with his other work, as no
| irrigation is required, provided the orch
ards are cultivated thoroughly.
One need not fear over production, as
the demand for oil and picked olives is
increasing much more rapidly than the
supply, and the profit will justify the
labor and time While waiting for the
trees to grow. If good care is taken of
| the trees they may be expected to pay
expenses the fourth year, with liberal
increase each year thereafter.
