able the year round-for drinks as
well as numerous other uses. The
season for lines grown in this coun-
try usually opens early in April, ends
along in December.
This summer, supplies of lines
and lemons should be plentiful
according to estimates of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The lemon crop. which started COM
ing to market last November, is the
largest since the l934-35 crop. and
very nearly the largest on record.
The lime crop doubtless will top
those OF previous years.
The history of both these acid
citrus fruits reads like a romantic
travelogue. Lines and lemons first
grew in the Orient-spread west
ward by way of the trade routes
put in an appearance in Europe in
the 18th century. Shortly after
that, Spanish adventurers brought
them to the New World. Ports of
call along the way from the Orient
to America have been such story
book places as Sicily, Yucatan and
Tahiti.
But though lemons and lines have
practically circled the globe. they
have ventured neither far to the
North nor TO the South. Like other
citrus fruits, they can be grown sue
cessfully only where the climate is
subtropical.
Most Lines Here
From Florida.
Lime-producing center of the Ma
ton is in Florida. Two main va
rleties are grown here-the Tahiti
or Persian lime, and the smaller
Key lime.
It's been during the past 4 or S
years that considerable quantities
of Persian lines have come into
production These are about the
size of a lemon and have slightly
less acid than Key lines. They are
seedless. Because they are picked
when they are green in color they
are often referred to as green
lines
Key lines are higher in acid than
the other citrus fruits. They are
small-from about l to l12 inches
in diameter. Usually the fruit is
picked just as it is turning yellow
Most Of these lines are grown at
the southern-most tip of the country
on the Florida keys. 1t is from
these small islands that they get
their popular name.
Shopping tips for lines are few.
Ordinarily good lines are heavy for
their size. That indicates good Juice
content. Decay may appear as
mold or as a soft discolored place
on the stem end. Brown discolora-
tions of the skin may or may not
affect the fruit inside.
Lemons Plentiful in
California.
Just as Florida supplies the Ma
ton with lines, nearly all the lem
ons for the country are produced
in California. All told, very many
more lemons than lines are grown
each year. According to the latest
figures, the lemon crop evenly dis

JAPAN BLOCKADES
 ALL CHINA COAST
No Foreign Shipping to Be Allowed in - Boarded
 French, British Ships
BY ROBERT BELLAIRE United Press Staff COrreSponderl

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Shanghai, May 25-A Japanese navy spokesman proclaimed a vir- tual Japanese brockade of shipping on the China coast today in ex- plaining the boarding of British and French liners on the high seas by Japanese warship parties.
 "It is not question of rights but of what Japanese authorities de- mand," said the spokesman in dis cussing the halting of the British liner Ranpura and the French liner Aramis.
 Japan, he disclosed, claims the power to halt any ship plying the China coast to insepct its registra- tion and determine whether vessels are being use dior military pur- poses helpful to the Chinese gov- ernment."
 These purposes the spokesman de- fined as carrying cargo destined for Chinese military use. He said he was unable to announce "contraband" list at present but said list was under consideration and might in- clude supplies intended for the Chinese army.
 May Cripple Foreign Trade
 Shortly before this announcement 8 United Press dispatch from Tient- sin disclosed that Japanese author ities had forbidden imports of wool, cotton and carpets to the foreign concessions there-a move interpre- ted by foreigners as a further Jap anese attempt to cripple foreign trade.
 As regards the coastal situation, the Japanese navy spokesman said that it would be confined" to 200 miles from the coast.
 Soon, he said, the Japanese would reveal instances in which foreign ships aided China. These instances, he said, were the reason for the new regulations" Some evidence" 1" he said, was based on reports of captured Chinese soldiers.
 The spokesman declined to com- ment on the probable Japanase att titude in event foreign powers pro- vided their liners with armed es- corts-as the British were reported considering. He then volunteered:
 "That probably will not be neces- sary in the case of the United States"
 Expects Complete Blockade
 The spokesman repeated that Japan expected @ complete blockade on all shipments from Japanese occupied territory in China to Chi- nese ereaS.
 Japan has no objection. the spokesman said, to peaceful" trade with Japanese occupied ereas. But he did not define goods which could be traded.
 Japanese complained today that e British sentry had halted Jap- anese navy officer and a Japaness interpreter at the baynet opint in the Lunchone mill area of Shanghai and wounded both of them in doing SO.
 The Domei tJapanese) news agen- cy said Japanese navy authorities intended to make c strong protest and demand an apology and disci- plinary action against tho sentry. ! A British ary patrol had been sent

 CrezU Members
 KnOus,n Locally

Recruiting Onacer William Met Gibbon, of the local office, today expresses heartfelt sorrow over the tragic fate of two for- mer shipmates, both believed dead in the submarine Squalus.
 Oflcer McGibbOn said he was very well acquainted with Chief Machinist's Mate Kenneth R. Garrison, of Joplin, Mo-, and Jack J. Strong, Hnachinist mate first class, of Milwaukee.
 Assistant Recruiter Michael Swata said he knew Francis K. Murphy, IT,, quartermaster first class, of CharIestown, Mass.
 When the SUI sank on Sept. 25, 1925, Officer McGibbon worked aboard tugs used for salvage purposes. He also worked the whole winter in salvage operations when the S4 went down Dec. 17, 1927. Officer McGibbon was attached to the naval mine forces at the time.
 During 1936-S7, Officer Swata was attached to the Sagamaro, third naval district tug, used in submarine operations. It was at this time that he became ac- quainted with Quartermaster Murphy.

Laying linoleum on the floor of q
kitchen in a rented house or apart
ment seems like a great luxury to
many families, inasmuch as their
leases run one, two or three years
and the life of the linoleum is so
much longer.
"Why buy lifetime floor covering
for a temporary residence" they ar
que. "It would be different If you
could rip it up and take it with you"
Well, you can. OF course, you still
have to gamble on the fact that your
new kitchen will be approximately
the size of your old one, or smaller,
but you can remove the new sort of
linoleum and take it with you when
you move from rented house or
apartment.

to introduce the gay pastels into an

These hooks come dozen in q
