Cause for Anxiety, Ac-
cording to Helms III
formation

Some time ago there was circulated
Ill California. for political purposes, a
story that the olive industry had been
seriously damaged by the new tariff
regulations. AS Il result. there was
some anxiety here in the Salt River
valley regarding the future of this in
dustry.
SO c. |. Helm of the Comeback Nur-
serN, one of whose specalties is olives,
wrote to the famous Fancher Creek
Nurseries at Fresno, California about
it.
That part of the reply which refers
TO the olive situation is as follows
We are mailing you under separ-
ate cover a little Bulletin which we
have just issued on the olive and which
we trust will be of interest to you The
information you have received regard
ing the olive situation, is wrong Will
state, however. that there was very
heavy crop last year and owing to the
shortness of money, good many pack
crs could not borrow enough money to
take care of the entire crop. We know
of no instance where any one 1oSt
first-clas fruit, and as we understand
it, now practically all the olives left
over are going into oil.
Some varieties like the Ascolano and
Seviliano were sold as high as 5000 per
ton. Zoe per ID. The price on Mission
and Manzanillo Livest to the factories
run from $100 to $50 per ton. Some
of these, however. were under contrac,
There is a big acreage going out in
olives this year. This we know from
the amount of trees sold and the many
inquiries this season.
I'VE consider the olive proposition
one of the very best here in California
in favored locations. The only trouble
with the planters is they received too
much money for their fruit the last
two or three years. They are not will
ling to come down and take price even
though money is scarce, and that is the
only reason they are kicking. We have
seen the time when people were glad
to get from $50 to $50 per ton for fruit
and were perfectly satisfied. Many
fruits have a black eye this season and
that of course is due to money strin
gency and the war in Europe.
our raisin crop is well cleaned up
this season, but dried peaches are not
selling at all. In fact. the growers are
not able to get the cost of production
out of their peaches this year. This is
practically due to the fact that there is
no export on dried fruit to Europe.

EXPLAIN FIGURE EIGHT
ON SKIRT OF VIRGIN
Tucson Cathedral Mystery Cleared by
Story of Priests

Instead of being a miraculous port

can revolutions according to Il fanci-
full story brought from the Citk Ct
Mexico, the appearance of the figure
49, on the skirt of the image of tie
Virgin of Guadalupe in the Tucson
Cathedral has been explained by local
Catholic priests by the statement that
the figure has always been there. but
that it had not been noticed before
Until attention was called to it by
Mexican war that emanated from the
Mexican capitol, says the Tucson
Star.
The explanation also accounts for
the appearance of the figure rs" on
many images of the virgin in local
homes.
: The explanation has satisfactorily
ended an apparent mystery that
promised to become inexplicable
that had in two day become Il ire
mendous sensation among residents
of the city who saw in the appear
ance of the figure a supernatural
manifestation disclosing the time that
the Mexican revolution would cease.
| The beginning Of the whole matter
started in a curious story from Mexi-
] co City. 1t seems that a young girl

age of the Virgin of Guadalupe in

With that she dropped over dead.
The priest looked at the image and
saw himself the IS" that the girl had
indicated.
Suddenly demented by the strange
occurrence he became insane and in
his wild rawlings told others of the
affair. They took it to mean that
the Mexican revolution would end on
February s.
This story arrived at Tucson the
first of the week. and Immediately
those who heard it went to the Ca
thedraI to see if the figure IS" had
appeared on the image of the Virgin
of Guadalupe at the lower part of
the skirt. Sure enough it was there.
and they went away filled with am
aZement, telling others of the strange
manifestation. Others came until
there was crowd in front Of the
image at the southwest corner Of
the Cathedral all of the time
Having seen the figure on the
Cathedral image, people went home
to see if it had apparel on the
images in their homes and what
seemed more wonderful. they saw it
. h..
the first time. BY Tuesday the mat
ter had become sensation and
crowds thronged the Cathedral to
lcok at the mysterious figure So
that they had never seen before. As
there was no other explanation at
hand. many people in Tucson took
1t to mean that the revolution would
end on February g. although no
/, month was mentioned.
The local Catholic clergy. surprised
at the influx Of visitors at the Ca
thedral Tuesday, began to investigate
the matter and gave the explanation
that the figure IS" had always been
on the image but that it had never
been noticed by the people until at
tcntion had been called to it by the
| story of the young girl and her
death. In support Of their cXplana-
ton. Father Duval has magazine

which gives minute description of
the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe

This explanation appears to clear
! up the matter satisfactorily as it
also accounts for the appearance of
the figure on the smaller images in
tho homes, all Of which are made
according to regular rules.
What the real meaning of the fig

known by the local priests who

are quite sure. however. that it does
not have anything to do with the
Mexican revolution. They will be
quite glad to have the explanation
generally accepted also.
