Real Olive Oil to Be Costly.

Tt is estimated that the entire Turk
ish output of olive oil will not exceed
100000 quintals (Turkish), or, say, 5O,-
900 tons. 1t is, therefore, relatively
insufficient to meet local requirements
and foreign demands.
The olive oil crop in Greece, Crete,
Italy. and Morocco has completely
failed. The crop of Tunis is estimated
at about 10000 tons. or about one,
fourth of its average crop.
As far as Spain is concerned. opin-
ion is divided. but IL is believed that
the country possesses a considerable
stock OF last seasons oil and that the
present crop will reach about one
third of that of good year. Spain is
the largest. olive oil producing coun-
try in Europe. A good harvest gives
about 100000 tons of oil Its home
consumption is considerable and it is
probable that the high market price
will prevent its expectation.

Two Bits OF Wood,

Importance cannot be reduced to a
matter of size. The success of a
piece of work may depend on a tiny
detail. Such is the case in regard to
that marvel Of construction, the violin.
Rev Fl. r. Haweis in his MY Musical
Life tells of the care and labor ex-
pended on two little pieces of wood
which go to make up the perfect
whole.
The soundbar Is a strip of pine wood
running under the left foot of the
bridge. A slight mistake in its posi-
ton, looseness. or inequality or rough
ness Of finish will produce that hollow,
teeth-on-edge growl called wolf" 1t
takes great cunning and life of prac-
teal study to know just how long and
how thick the sound-bar must be, and
exactly where to place il, In each in
strument,
The sound-post Is little pine prop,
like short bit of cedar pencil. 1t is
the soul of the violin, and through 1t
pours all vibrations. Days and weeks
are spent in adjusting the tiny sound
post. Its position exhausts the pa
thence of the maker, and makes the
joy or misery of the player.-Youth's
