of the world in addition. The history
of conmercialism, since the states
mans somewhat famous speecn, has
shown how a wise man can be mis-
taken in attributing limits to our pro-
ducing capacity in any direction
The Spanish padres brought the
olive, the grape, the orange, the lemon,
and other fruits from Spain to Cali
fornia and demonstrated that they
would AL grow well in the new land.
Many years followed. however, before
it was discovered that the fruit pro-
ducts of this State were so varied and
could reach the huge commercial pro-
portions revealed by recent statistics
of rail and steamer transportation.
The orange trains and other fruit
trains of California and the movements
of seasonable vegetables from this
State, east bound, are the basis OF
commercial items of much significance.
NO INDUSTRY HAS EVER FAILED.
Varieties of fruit. methods of culture
and handling. questions OF marketing
and distribution. the adaptability of
widely distant areas in this State to
the production of all sorts of vegeta-
tion common to the lands that border
on the Mediterranean-these are all
discoveries. What has been learned
contains useful and valuable lessons
that will have profitable application
for all time
AS commerce and commercial con-
ditions in California are permanent, so
likewise are those that apply to the
soil The mineral deposits of the State
are discoveries and discovery is yet in
its infancy. Witness the output of

The question of title Is one of the
most delicate in Germany, a fact of
which the stranger is constantly re-
minded in intercourse with the people,
particularly with the women. Frau
Professor, Frau Director, Fran Doctor,
are most particular about their hus-
bands titles being attached TO their
own names. But when 1t comes to mil
itary circles 1t Is different, and both
men and women protest vigorously
against this sharing of titles. Lieuten-
ant Won D. objects to having his wife
addressed as Frau Lieutenant, which
title belongs as well to the wife Of
Lieutenant Schmidt or Hun of less
aristocratic regiment.
