SHORTAGE OLIVE CROP
To PROVIDE MARKET
COTTON SEQ OIL
(By Associated Press.)

TRIPOLI, Libia, Nov. 12.-Weather
conditions generally unfavorable to the
olive crop has continued here through
out the sumner and hot winds in some
areas at the end of August and begin
ming of September caused considerable
fruit to fall before maturity. 1t is
now believed that only three-quarter
crop will be harvested this season, and
that as a result of the shortage of
olive oil, the market for American cot
tonseed oil will be greatly enlarged.
"Tripoli oil Of last years yield is
scarce" said United States Consul W.
Roderick Dorsey, today, "and has ad-
vanced about Is per cent. or to IA
cents per pound; that from Msellata,
on the other hand is abundant, but in
small request, at Is per cent. cheaper.
The former is clear and sweet; the
fruit for its manufacture is crushed,
placed in soft eparto baskets that act
as strainers, and pressed into water,
when, after the heavy particles and
impurities sink to the bottom, the oil
is skinned and stored in gorraffs or
earthen jars ready for market In Sc
curing Msellata oil the fruit is merely
crushed and pressed: the result being
a gross product not so pleasing to
either taste or smell as that refined
by the water process"

SUMTERP[.ANTER
LOSES BARN
BY FIRE

Mr.. ]. c. Carter, a successful planter
of Sumter county, lost his big barn,
together with several hundred dollars
worth of feedstuff, farming implements
and three head of stock last night, in
fire which completely destroyed the
barn and threatened the ginhouse and
dwelling. The Carter farm is seven
miles east of Americas and is consid-
cred one of the show places of the
county.
The fire which was discovered while
the family was at supper is thought to
have been the work of some demented
fire bug. Considerable feeling has
been aroused throughout the county
as the result of a series of fires, all of
which seen to have been of incendiary
origin.
The fire was only discovered after
it was too late TO save the barn. All of
the live stock with the exception of a
mule and two COWS were saved. These
animals were burned to death, Mod
ern farming implements and tools
worth well in the thousands only add
ed fuel to the flames.
The big barn was stored to the ewes
with corn, oats, cotton seed, hay and
other feedstuffs. All of this was COM
pletely destroyed. Luckily for the
owner, there was no cotton stored in
the barn, and Mr.. Carter did not lose
any of the f1eecy staple.
The loss was estimated this morn
ing at. between $4,000 and $4,000. Very
little insurance, probably enough to
pay one-fourth of the damage, was
carried.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 12.-Old resi-
dents of Georgia have called atten-
ton to the fact that the grave of one
of Georgia's former governors is in
state of inexcusable neglect. A move
ment has been begun to take care of
it in future.
Peter G. Early, who died in 1917,
nearly 100 years ago, sleeps on the
banks of the Oconee river in Green
county, on bluff overlooking that
stream. The massive stone wall sur
rounding the lot has crumbIed away.
Horses and cows trample over the
grave at will. There are no descend
ants in the country to assume care for
the grave Of distinguished ancestor.

DESERT CITY OLDEST
Acoma, in New Mexico, Is Many
Centuries Old.
Was In Full Bloom In 1542-Has
Three Story Houses, Outside Stair
ways and 100 Foot Wide
Streets,

Chicago.-Acoma, the Pueblo Indian
city down in New Mexico. is claimed
to be the oldest city In the western
hemisphere. 1t was In full bloom when
Coronado in 1542 came across It ON
an exploring tour northward from Mex
leo. He found the Pueblo Indians do
ing then what they are doing today,
and doing 1t in the same fashion, and
the houses on the rocky islands that
rise several hundred feet out of the
plains are the same houses that Cor
onados eyes rested on as he came
on the Indian city.
ST. Augustine. which is often refer
red to as the oldest city in the United
States, was not discovered until 1865,
when Menendez came on Florida while
chasing a French ship under Rebaut.
Years before Coronado found it Acoma
was a recognized abode of the Pueblo
Indians. The Pueblos told Coronado
that their first city was on Katzimo,
the rocky island three miles away,
which Is also called the Enchanted
Mesa" Many years ago, they told
the Spanish explorer. the original
Acoma rested on the top Of Katzimo.
One day, while all but three women
were in the plains below the tableland,
a great cliff fell. destroying the trail
from the plains to the ancient city.
The Indians took this as an indication
of the Great Spirits displeasure over
something they had done and to pun
ish them had cut on the path to their
city. Instead Of clearing the path and
returning to their old home on top Of
Katzimo the Pueblos went to the ad-
joining tableland and there set up
the present city Of Acoma, the same
oity that Coronado visited in 1542.
The Pueblos look at the old city
on its rocky site nearly 400 feet in
the air as q sacred place. and woe to
the person caught trying to penetrate
its precincts.

city builders may have copied from

Houses are built of mud, ordinary
New Mexican mud shaped into blocks
and baked hard. After centuries under
the fierce rays of the sun the blocks get

the Indian builders smeared the joints

the houses are eight feet thick. In

The cathedral is built of mud. just as

The roof is supported by rafters that

pulled 20 miles across the plains from
the San Mateo mountains.
