FAILURE OF OLIVE CROP
GOOD THING FOR AMERICA

Last year the European olive crop
failed. The devout Moslems of Tur-
key and Asia Minor would not eat
butter or lard. There was little olive
oil to be had. They bought cotton
seed oil by the shipload- Now they
like it better than olive oil and they
don't care whether that crop fails or
not.
Every line of industry throughout
the country feels the quickening i'm
pulse of good crops and good prices.
1t touches impartially the little sod
house far out on the Dakota prairie
and the palace of the millionaire on
upper Fifth avenue. The section hand
putting in new ties on the railroad
feels it, the toilers in factories, the
clerks in cities-there is no life so re-
mote that it is not affected when the
crops are abundant.
With this tremendous increase of a
thousand million dollars in the value
of the products of the earth in the
United States this year there should
begin an era of prosperity such as

developed by a railroad extending
from southeastern Europe to Bagdad
and the Persian gulf. Hitherto this
great territory has received its cot
ton goods by caravan from Alden and
the Red sea- The opening up of these
two great territories is among the
things that are likely to keep the
price of cotton up, no matter how
much is raised during the next few
years. Five years ago, when the gov
ernment's cotton crop report estlmat-
ing 12,162.0OO bales was published,
the price of cotton dropped to So
cents a pound. This year this same
production is regarded as very mod

thousand bales is the record crop.
But the cotton fibre alone is not all
that comes from the plant. Twenty

THEoRx or PLACER DEPOSITS
NJ. FieuN Advances New Idea of For
nation of Gold Bearing
Aliuyial Deposits.

The current theory of the forma-
tions of gold-bearing alluvial deposits
assumes that the gold exists original
ly in the central nucleus of the
earth in the forms of snlphide and
telluride. which subsequently be-
came dissolved i'm the waters of the
hot springs and were deposited to-
gether with gelatinous silica. Thus
were formed veins of auriferous
quartz. which In consequence of
erosion. give rise to alluval strata
containing particles of metallic
gold
NJ. Vieux. however. asserts that
the erosion OF outcropping aurifer-
Gus veins of quartz does not ac-
count for all deposits of metallic
gold lie finds that some of the
gold-bearing strata show no trace of
quartz. but consist wholly of clay
with fragments OF diorite or dia-
base. and moreover are so situated
as TO preclude the existanee of
quartz veins. He has seen beds of
streams become rich In gold after
every rain-storm. although they
showed no trace of quartz.
Finally in certain auriferous starata
which contain much quartz. not
a particle of gold is found in the
quartz, though some gold occurs
in the diabase which accompanies II.
Hence Fieux concludes that the
erosions of quartz veins can not be
the sole source of auriferous allu-
vial strata and. furthermore. that
the strata of heavy. basic rocks, con-
tanning diorite. amyhibolic schist and
diabase indicates that native gold Is
one of the subsidiary ingredients of
those rocks.
According 10 this new theory,
therefore, ceartain of the heavy
eruptive rocks have carried with
them i'm their eruption some of the
gold existing in the metallic state
in the central nucleus of the earth
after reaching the surface these
rocks were oxidized by contact with
the air. and eroded by water, which
washed away the lighter materials
and left the heavier, including the
gold.
This NJ FieuX regards as the true
theory of the formation of gold
bearing alluvial strata. In general
the erosion of the quartz veins be-
ing only an occasional cause of the
enrichments of these strata.
