LONG LIVED OLIVE TREES,
Groves That Have Been Productive Fer
Many Centuries.

Groves That Have Been Productive Fer
Many Centuries.
The longevity Of olive trees IL extraor-
binary. In Syria have been found some
remarkably ancient olive trees whose
ages are established beyond question.
A trust deed exists which relates to an
orchard covering 400 trees near Tripoli.
Syria. the trust deed having been r.
sued in the year l41O.
Though the trees look aged, they stu
bear fruit of fine quality In abundance
and are likely to maintain their pro-
ductiveness for many hundreds Of
years. An olive grove near Beirut
is admitted to be the third largest
olive farm in the world. Syrian fruit
farmers are extending olive culture
with much zeal and effect.
Under European systems Of culture
the Syrians make the olive tree bear
each season, while in the old days one
crop in three years was thought to b
all that the trees could produce. The
low cropping capacity of the trees was
due to the native method Of thrashing
the fruits from the branches with
sticks. which seriously injured them.
The methods Of grinding the olive
for oil and picking the fruit are pecul-
lar. Neither the grinders nor pickers
receive wages, but are paid on per-
centage. The pickers receive S per
cent Of the actual fruit picked. and the
grinders get 10 per cent Of the fruit
ground.-Dundee Advertiser.

SENSATION AND MEMORY ARE
VERY PROBABLY SUPERIOR TO

NAucElCAu N0WS S6fvtCep
Washington. Nov. S,-Eleven mon
keys. imported from India for expert
mental purposes, which are housed in
cages on the top floor OF the medical
school Of the George Washington uni
versity. have for several months furn-
ished valuable contributions to
science.
The little animals have been sub
jected to rigid and psychological ex-
aminations. with the result that Prof.
w. T. Shepard. a learned scientist and
formerly identified with several Of the
large universities OF this country. who
has conducted the experiments, has
arrived at the conclusion that the 81.
mians are superior to human beings,
SO far rs the lower mental faculties
are concerned.
Prof. Shepard says that the mon.
Keys faculties Of perception. sensation
and memory are perhaps superior to
those OF man. while its faculties for
reason. judgment and imagination are
inferior. To reach this conclusion,
Prof. Shepard worked patiently with
the animals for more than six months.
Ihey were instructed carefully and
thoroughly.
The monkey also Is superior. 40 far
as mentality is concerned, to the dog.
the cat. and the raccoon. Prof. Shep-
ard says. The object Of the expert
ments have been to determine what
monkeys really know. not what they
can be taught, to do. These little
psychological aristocrats OF the AMI.
NAL world. consequently have been
coached and instructed as II they were
infants In a nursery.

HEAVY SNOW STORM
 VISITS GLOBE
Cold of Past Few Days Breaks With Blanket of
 the Beautiful

Winter broke loose in earnest Sunday night, when Globe was visited with a snow storm which covered the district with blanket from two inches to a foot in depth.
 The storm began at o clock Sunday night and snow fell internationally dur ing the greater part of the night. In the city the snow fall averaged about four inches, while around Miami and in the foothills generally, as much as a foot of snow was measured after the storm had subsided.
 This storm came earlier than usual and was more than ordinarily heavy. The GlObe-Kelvin stage was held up yesterday morning, owing to the heavy snowfall in the mountains.
 The only damage done as the result of the storm was to the physiOgnomy of driver of the Old Dominion Com mercial company. The driver mixed things with Deputy Sheriff Eugene Shute as the result of snOwball fusi- Jade in which a younger brother of the latter participated. Shute won the decision in the first round.

UP 10 HIGH COURT
Federation Asks for Dismis sal of Injunction for
 Buck Stove Go.

WASHINGTON, D. C., December G. Before the supreme court of the United States tomorrow, the attorneys for the American Federation of Labor will ask to have dismissed the original anti-boy, cott injunction issued by Judge Gould in the Buck Stove & Range case. Com pers, Mitchell and Morrison, officers of the Federation, under contempt sen tence for violation of the injunction are parties to the appeal.
 The move puts it up to the supreme court to decide if the federation boy. colt of the Buck Stove & Range com pany was lawful procedure.
 The stove company already has filed an appeal against the notifications claiming that the original injunction has been so altered as to be practically of no use for the purpose for which it was sought.
