Today is the day set for California; .

country Is urged and invited to help make

themselves and give the rest to their
families and friends.
Orange growing is now a great Cali
fornia lndustry--the most important in
that state and one OF the greatest in the
world.
AZ the time when apples stored for the
winter are becoming dried and worthless
when there are no berries. grapes,
peaches or pears save those in the
windows OF the expensive fruiterers or the
green houses OF the wealthy. the oranges
are in golden piles on the fruit stands
and within reach OF everybody.
Aid 20 Digestion.
In them IL the acid necessary to keep
the digestion In perfect condition. They
are suited to the most delicate invalid.
They are good before breakfast, at lunch,
az dinner-between meals.
Children can eat oranges until they can
sat no more without injurious effect. Even
nursing babies can sip the Juice when
most foods are too strong for their tiny
stomachs. Everybody can eat oranges,
and II everybody would eat them there
would be less work for the doctors.
missionaries Brought Trees.
II was In California that nature was
taught to grow oranges without seeds,
oranges with thin skins and plump, de-
licious sections filled with heaith-giving
juice.
The few trees that the old missionaries
planted have had q countless multitude
OF descendants. and other trees have been
brought from all parts OF the world
where oranges flourish best.
Besides the orange orchards are grooves
OF lemons and figs. and very recently the
date has been imported from Arabia and
made TO contribute It's share toward
feeding the nation.
You viii help a great state observe a
real holiday. and you win acquire habit
that win prove OF enduring benefit.

day sent the price OF granulatsd sugar 10
the highest level recorded since the out
break OF the European war. One OF the
largest American refiners quoted the

London. May 27 Again the French
have seized the initiative at Ncrdur

have been too weak to oppose the coun-

village Of Cumiores. in trenches at Le
Mort Homme. and in new lines in the
Haudromont quarry, west of Douau-

all kinds. They have been part Of the
secret Of French resistance there.
Hence. the Germans place high value
on their capture. Several times they
have been penetrated by the Germans,
only to be promptly expelled by the
French.
Evidence continues TO reach the
French General staff that the Germans
have not vet abandoned their great
drive for Verdun. Feverish prepara-

To-night's Italian communication
says:
"ln the course of yesterday the stua-

Unionists i'm their turn have to re-

that settlement Ulster must make some
definite contribution. II is obviously OF
great importance that the service act,
imposing the same military obligation
on Irish manhood as on the rest of the
United Kingdom. should be extended to
ireland before the end of the struggle.
Diluted Home Rule.
The formula Tome Rule for compul-
sion" is too crude as it stands. Either
Home Rule as passed will have to be
diluted. if il is TO apply to the whole Of
ireland in way that would reconcile
the majority and minority, or for a
large part Of Ulster there must be dis

war. has reminded the world that Ire
land is tho key Of sea power on this side
Of the Atlantic. Were that key in hos

access 20 the open ocean, and, indeed.
no security whatever for liberty or ex-
istence. There you have the secret OF
much in the history Of the past and the
action of the present. As have said,
il is too soon 10 be sanguine; but that
Germany through the Sim Fen has
helped powerfully toward the settle

toward the making Of the British En-
pire in other ways, ! am, on the whole,

Reaction from Revolt.

At first the reaction from the revolt
promised TO be all to the good.
John Redmond and Sir Edward Carson
supported each other in suppressing
recrimination and filled the House OF
Commons with a solemn sense of re-
sponsibility. What might not be done
if these two great lrishmen could be
brought TO work together? Countries,
like persons. must in the end work out
their own salvation. The real Irish
question can only be settled in Ire
land itself. For moment there was
hope. il only ftful and uncertain as

struggles out of a night of heavy

feeling once more got the whlp-hand

threatening an overturn.
The cause was not LOGICAL. but IL was
none the less ineligible TO any one
who knows Irish temperament and ira

Dublin were neither numerous nor
vindictive. About dozen rebels al
together were shot. The shooting was
carried out by small daily instalments.
