LESS OLIVE OIL IN SIGHT.
Short ness of Mcditcrra mean Supply
Bringa More Co m petition.

Oil dealers in Marscillcs, France, csti-
mate the Mediterranean olive crop for
lg2l-22 In terms OF oil at approximately
$4,000 metric tons. This il in sharp
contrast, reports Consul Wesley Frost
with the normal yield and with the cx-
ceptionally large yield OF the previous
season. The olive crop is usually larger
in each alternate year, partly because il
is only bicnnially that the olive tree puts
forth tho new shoots which produce
flowers and Ir,it
II is considered probable that Spain
and Italy will consume their entire sea-
sons production of olive oil, as their pres
en- tariff laws make the importation Of
cottonsecd oil substitutes from America
difficult. This will leave France and the
outside world dependent upon Tunisian
and Greek supplies, Ms the crop in Asia
Minor is exceedingly small. The produc-
ton in Southern France never supplies
more than fraction of French needs,
so that buyers from America and
Northern Europe will probably meet
with competition in Tunis and Greece
from the French buyers who ordinarily
obtain their supplies from Spain and
Italy
French olive culture IL confined to
Provence, and is heaviest around AK
Toulon and Draguignan, just cas- OF
Marseiles Olive culture has been
steadily declining in that region, because
it does not possess so warm climate
rs the other olive countries, and the sol
is not SO rich in natural phosphntes,
upon which the olive tree depends. The
French oil is of the very highest quality
but il hns suffered greatly from tn,
competition OF cheaper olive oils and o
refined peanut and cottonseed oil. A
law was passed in 1913 prohibiting TN,
cutting down of olive orchards in France
except by special permit, These per
mts have been issued very freely, how
ever, and the orchards are rapidly bcin,
decimnted. According 10 some estimates
the industry will have disappeared iron
this region within the next twenty o
twenty-five years.
IS AT the time Of the oil estimates, in De
cember, very little of the product wa
changing hands md the price quotc'
was 430 francs. Olive oil was then pur
chased in Tunis at about $50 francs pc
100 kilos 800 pounds, but the expor
duty brought this up Co 400 francs a

the prominent members Of the trade eN
pect large increases in olive oil prices q

That teaching OF the psychologists /

the secret Of much misery and much
happiness for men and women.
1t is the particular lesson which
the writer of the following could

openly with the circle Of primitive
human Instincts:

cried out. Naturally, / was insanely
jealous. Inside of six months we
had quarrel and went back to my

I went back, and ever since have
been slave.
HE pretends to worship his chill
dren, then he tells them they are his,
and that am only their mother!
"In eight years of our married life
he has had many a love affair and
for them hate him. When object
he threatens to throw me into the
street and to keep my babies from
me. He is a bully, but our friends
do not know.
'eHe provides his family with
everything. l have many luxuries.
Still loathe the man. He says ]

he makes love to me I hide in a corr
ner Of the house.
when I lose my temper he is so
pleased. He likes to get me angry.
Il want to take my children and
run away before I do something
desperate"
For pages this letter continues a
weary tale Of violent domestic in
felicity.
The worst of all tragedies is that
which binds two together when they
excite in each other nothing but the
primitive instincts, hate and love-
jealousy, revenge and anger.
Some such cases ought to be
solved by speedy divorce. But when

Buster Bear and Reddy Fox had
planned TO prevent Jumper ever get

hidden where he could jump out at
Jumper and perhaps catch him.
Along had come Jumper, and just as
Reddy was getting ready to spring
he had heard a step behind him and
had turned to look right, straight in
the face of Buster Bear!
Now, Reddy Fox is a coward. he
always has been coward. Perhaps
he can't help it, but anyway he IS
coward. When he saw who 1T was
behind him he gave one frightened
yelp and then he put his tail between
his legs and he started for home
faster than ever he had run before.
His eyes looked as If they would pop
right out of his head. His tongue

You see. it happened like this:
Jimmy skunk had met Buster Bear
nm bv the pond Of Paddy the Beaver
deep in the Green Forest and he had
made Buster Bear get out of his way.
Peter Rabbit had seen him do it. and
OF course Peter had told every one he
