LONDON HITS NAVEL ORANGE.
Fruit Said TO BE Deterioating Into a
Vegetable Sponge.

London. March 21.- The Califor-
MIA seedless oranges received here
this season are in no way compare
bic to the juicy fruit received five
years ago. Many of them are dry
and spongy. There are distinct signs
that the quality is depreciating. This
seems to show that seedlessness Is
secured at the expense of quality
The flesh Of the fruit lacking seeds
loses its juiciness and bids fair in
time to degenerate into a kind OF
vegetable sponge. It seems clear that
a representative seedless fruit can
not .ong be depended upon, though
the mature specimens are high in
uniform quality. 1t is believed here
that the prospects are that fruits OF
this kind will deterioate and run
out simply from their secdlessness. B
