Saunders sent out under the name of
the Bahai navel orange, a few trees
grated from the parent stem to Mrs.
Tfbbitts, at Riverside, Cal. Shortly af-
ter that, an orange known as the River
side navel orange appeared. 1t was at
once taken up by other fruit growers in
California, whose spirit of enterprise
caused them to change its name, In Or
der that Riverside should not get too
much credit through its excellence. For
many years the parent of all the navel
oranges stood In the Agricultural De-
partment hot houses, and it is still prob
ably in existence. 1t is said that once n
wealthy Californian who had made his
fortune growing navel oranges was
shown this original tree. and, standing
before 1t he took of his hat, and bowed
low. to show his rev erence for the tree,
as its progeny had made for him $50, 900.
Many orange growers have declared
that II the Agricultural Department had
done nothing but to introduce the navel
orange into America, all the money that
had been expended on its account had
