1t necessary for sales literature to do more
actual selling than heretofore. How adver-
Using can best do this work is the problem
OF every business house. It's the central idea

been built. How other firms are meeting
this situation today is what interests mo-

DID
NOT CREATE new
VOLCANO CRATER

Rome, Sept, 29.-Scientists say
they do not believe that a new vol
cano was created near Spezia, during
the earthquake which began Sept.
and continued until Sept. g., causing
the loss of 500 lives.
Tongues of flame and smoke or
dust were seen to be emitted from
what is popularity supposed to have
been a new crater. opened near the
mountain top.
Frank A. Perrett, the American
volcanologist for the Carnegie Insti-
tuition, who occupies a. station at Mt.
Vesuvius TO observe it's operations,
has expressed to The Associated
Press the opinion that no new vol
cano has been formed but that the
earthquakes caused diSplacements of
subterranean strata causing fis-
sure in the earth'S crust and that gas
escaping therefrom was mistaken by
on1ookerS as the opening of a new
crater. The phenomeon, was not a
new one. Mr.. Perrett said the seis-
mical instruments showed a towering
district previous to the tremors. This
had been observed on other occasions
when earthquakes. occurred.
This view is shared by Senator
Caplellni, a leading geologist who
has been interviewed by the Mesa ge~
and who says there may have bec1I
an eruption of gas through a fissure
OH, Mount Pisanino and the supposed
column of smoke above the noun
tain may have been caused by clouds
of dust from falling earth.
The tongues of flame, in Senator
Caplellini's opinion, may possibly
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-09-29

have been inf1ammabIe gas from I'M
foreground wells of oil. He said,
however, that volcanoes can appear
independently of the structure of the
earth's crust and that the greatest
catastrophies have occurred from the
appearance of volcanoes where no
body expected them.
For example, the >geologist con-
tinued, Mount Etna rises out of post
Piocene strata while the volcanoes
of the Andes mountains in South
America arise from granite rocks.
Therefore the nature of the Apuan
mountains did not exclude the pos
sibility of a volcano appearing on
Mount PiSanino.

OLIVE GROWERS
SAY PRODUCT is
SAFEF0R EATING

Centuries before the Sermon on
the Mount-the Mount of Olives
the olive industry was one Of the
countries bordering the Mediterrane-
an Sea where today nine million
acres of trees still bring profit to their
growers. At the time Of the Exodus
the Israe1ites found olive trees in
Canaan. Later they were transplant
ed to Spain. From Spain they were
taken to Mexico and from Mexico
they were carried by the early Fran
ciscan Fathers into California where
they flourished in the gardens of the
San Diego Mission before America
waged her War of Independence.
From that day to this, native Cal
ifornians have recognized the food
value of this pre- historic. fruit. Writ
ers of California travels for the last
century have repeatedly mentioned
at the back door of even the most
humble of shacks on the great
ranches of the West.
The Beginning of the Industry.
Owing to the difficulty of compel
ing with cheap European labor in
picking olives and manufacturing oil
for the market, however, olive grow
ing did not show symptoms of be-
coming a great industry in the West
until 1901 when Professor f. T. Bio
letti of the University of California
demonstrated a process whereby ripe
olives could be sterilized and canned
Tor the market so that they would
keep Indefinitely.
This gave California olive men a
| monopoly over the European growers
who lacked this perfected process of
sterilization. 1t is upon the canned
ripe olive, therefore, that the Cali
fornia industry is based.
There are at the present time forty
thousand acres of bearing olive trees
| and over three. thousand acres COM
| ing into bearing annually in Califor-
nia-an industry that, including for
| ty-two processing plants, involves an
investment of twenty-five million dol
| lars, and an annual production valued
! at about five million.
| One Hundred and Eighty Million
| Cans
1t was cOnservatively estimated
| last year that since the beginning OF
| the industry about fifteen years ago
one hundred and eighty million con
tanners of ripe olives have gone upon
| the market and nine million more
| were supplied to the epicures of the
| nation in 1919.
| These tremendous figures together
with the undue Importance that edi-
! tors throughout the country gave tc
| the fact that, in six containers out OF
the one hundred and eighty million
| the olives were spoiled when they
| were eaten, both stand as evidence
| of the fact that what was an infant
| industry only fifteen years ago has
now grown to national proportions.
There are available in California
five hundred thousand acres suitable
| for planting olives ITO be gathered
from this acreage annually at current
| prices would be worth two hundred
| and fifty million dollars, but at the
| rate of growth which the Industry
has enjoyed since it's beginning, il

BUSMEN SAY
TROLLEY men
!. STIR TROUBLE

The amount contributed to the De-.
Tense Fund by the jitney owners since
it was started in June amounts to be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000. out of
which we have paid the salaries of 80
starters. These salaries last week
amounted to s1,100, the fees of the
several lawyers whom we retained to
defend us and appear before the
courts in the injunction proceedings
and in the City ce1urt to defend mem
bers who were arrested for violating
Using in the daily papers and out OF
the fund we also advanced about
$1,000 to get Connecticut licenses and
permits for New York jitney men
who came to Bridgeport to help out
when the tro1leys went on their strike
in July said John G. Schwarts, fis-
cal agent of the Bus Association, to-
day when questioned about the de-
mand for an accounting of the De-
Tense Fund that has been made by
some jitney men.
IAN auditing committee Of the jit-
ney men will go over the accounts and
audit them this morning at 10 O'Clock
and when they have finished their
labors they will submit a report to
the bus owners. --.
II believe that the whole agitation
in reference to the defense fund is
propaganda by the trolley interests to
among the jitney men which will be
of benefit to the Connecticut Com
pany."
cat one of the hearings before
Mayor Wilson, President Storrs said
that the company had buses running
in Bridgeport and the action of the
men who are stirring up trouble
about the defense fund leads me to
think that the company is back of this
agitation
These same men who are stirring
up this trouble are going around
among the jitney men telling and ad-
vising them to take off their Public
Service markers and put on Com
mercial markers and then go back to
the old routes. They are advising the
| men to do things that they know will
get the jitneys in sour with the police
and the travellings public and it
makes the officers of the Bus Associa-
lions spend considerable time and eff
fort to counterfeit this propaganda

Olives as Safe as Any Food.
Disasters from eating spoiled foods
have occurred and will continue to
occur so long as people fail to ex-
foods they eat. AS many cases have
occurred annually in the City of New
York alone from food spoilage in
such common products as milk and
meat, and elected little or no COM
ment from the press.
People will soon realize, as their
common sense can only force them
to realize, that what occurred in Ripe
red with any food product; that in
reality the proportion of spoilage in
Ripe Olives is smaller than that of
many of the commonest foods they
consume daily.
Scientific Investigation.
The incident has served its purpose
| in focusing upon the olive curing
processes, which already held a rec
ord equal to that of any other food
product made in this country, the
minutest Investigations of the great
est scientists in the world. One. hun
dred thousand Ado1lars was set aside
by the National Gamers Association
| the Gamers League of California and
| the California Olive Association to
pay these scientists for intensive re-
| searches that will make California
I ripe olives the safest and most scien-
tifically prepared food on earth.
| In a report made by these scien-
lists in the latter part of July and
Board of Health, they gave the re-
suits of their six months study. They
| reported that the germ resulting in
the spoiIage olives is a soil product
in no way different from that found
at rare intervals in other canned
fruits and vegetables, and that ii
may be completely destroyed by ster-
ilization at a temperature of .24O de-
greeS.
Even today in the words of Pro
fessor Cruess of the University OF
California more care is taken in
their preparation and a longer time
| and higher temperatures of steriliza
ton are used than with any Other
canned fruit Professor Bioletti the
father of the ripe olive industry, ha.
estimated from the known number
| one would have to eat a quart da,
for three thousand years to stant
even the slightest chance of being
harmed. It is doubtful if this coult
be said of milk or meat or even thu
comm onest articles of our diet. In
deed as Professor M. E. Jaffa, Con
, , surfing Nutrition Expert of the Uni
versity said, Few foods can be con
sumed with great confidence a

Food Value of Ripe Olives.

/ The oil is in a state of natural ernu1
sion, ready to be digested prompt
without the possibility of interfer
