GHOSTS OF WORLD
WAR HAUNT BALTIC
Drifting Old Mines and Derelict Sub
marines Are Menace to
Navigation.

STOCKHOLM, Feb. 18.-Ghosts of the
great war still haunt the Baltic, scar
ing veteran shippers, sailors, fisher
men and steamship passengers alike.
Hardly week passes without re-
ports along the Swedish coast of drift
ing old mines and derelict submarines,
both serious menace to all naviga-
ton. The mines are principally of
Russian and German origin, and after
breaking loose from their moorings
they have drifted toward the east coast
of Sweden. Many of them have been
washed ashore on Cortland island,
which lies almost in the center of the
Baltic.
The derelict U-boats haunt the west
ern waters.
Even since the armistice, Baltic
storms have washed mines upon the
coast, and dwellers along the shore
have long since become accustomed to
the terrific detonations of exploding
mines hurled against the cliffs during
heavy gales. Energetic efforts have
been made to sweep up these danger
Gus relics of the war, but it viii prob
ably be years before the North Sea or
the Baltic is free of them.
1t is not at all uncommon for fisher
men to catch mines in their nets. They
are regarded as lucky catches, although
they have to be handled gingerly, for
the government pays handsomely for
the removal or destruction of mines,
if satisfactory proof of their discovery
or destruction can be furnished
The U-boat derelicts are said to have
been discarded English vessels, lost
while being towed from English ports

have to change their schedules in the

Olives A Tirne-honored Fruit

Olives have grown in many othe
climes from the earliest hours of his
tory when the patriarch Noah frs
learned of his deliverance by the dove
borne olive branch down througi
Gethsemane to the present. But the
olive that figures in civilizations past
and present, except for that of Sc
vile, has been grown chiefly for the
purpose of producing olive oil. Gre
clan athletes made their muscles
supple by rubbing them with the oil
of the olive. Roman matrons used
it % soften their skin and add lustre
to their hair. The olive grew chiefly
to give these peoples its oil--and to
provide the leaves from which wreaths
were made for browning victorious
legions upon their triumphant return
from fresh conquest.
Countless efforts have been made to
promote the growth of queen and
manEanilla green olives elsewhere than
in the vicinity of Seville. They have
never been successful. Apparently
nature has put down her foot and
decreed that edible green olives are
indigenous TO Seville alone and that
no other land shall share the special
favor that has been bestowed upon
this romantic city and its environs.

Great care is exercised, when pick.

Carts that carry the olives to the
curing houses a few miles from the
groves are lined TO insure furtheI

a Rolling oiive CroDe near Seville.

The universal experience when such
attempts have been made has been
that the olive always ripens before it
reaches the size of the olives of Sc
vile, or that its texture and favor
are too poor for marketing as edible
olives. This fact is responsible for
he ripe olive industry of California,
where unsuccessful experiments were
made to duplicate the industry that
$ peculiar to Seville. When olives
ripen before attaining the queen or
tnanzanilla size, the only alternatives
are to press them for oil or market
hem as ripe olives.
So it is that the world looks to the
limited section about this Spanish
city for its green olives. 1t is use
less to look beyond these confines be-
cause nature guards jealousy her
sift to the rolling Spanish groves and
sefeats all endeayors TO initiate Sc
ille's inherent achievement, even
then the attempt is made in other
