All were talking short crop, and it was comfortnoly fixed in tht minds of the growers that there would be at least a 10 per cent shortage in the orange yield as compared with that of the previous year, when 24,5 00 cars of oranges were shipped, of which 18,000 cars were estimated to have been Navels. The awakening did not come until along in February, and even when' the shippers began to realize that they would have more fruit than they originally planned upon, they did not realize the seriousness of the situation, and many of them were content to hold for the May market, which had heretofore been the highest of the year, but which proved to be the lowest for this season, owing to the quantity of fruit offered. Other varieties were low In sympathy with Navels and Seedlings were down to nearly giveaway prices; the Seedling deal, in fact, very nearly proved a disastrous one for many operators, though but one went under entirely. Navels opened up fairly well last year and the ruling price for Christmas delivery for stock from both north and south that was untouched by the frost was $2 f. o. b. for the best and down to $1.35 cash for the poorest. The after-holiday market was low, as usual, but the February market was good, in fact the best of the year. The demand dragged somewhat in March, took a spurt in April, but from mid-April to the end of the season there was almost no cash market here in California, the fruit being rolled to take what price it could get. This season the market for southern fruit seems to be opening up fairly well and Orange county stock is being quoted at this writing at $1.50 a box, as against $1.35 to $1.45 for last season. Last year the Valencias opened considerably...

Investigation has demonstrated that the Mediterranean crop of olives cannot be ripened and shipped as ours is. This gives to California practically a monopoly on the ripe olive industry, a distinction not shared by any other crop grown in this State. We know there is a vast market to consume the ripe olive, yet it is an abstract market because the consumer knows little or nothing of it and its high food value. We well know how eager the stranger is to obtain a supply after his Introduction to them. It is a market which requires publicity and education, both so efficient and broad in their scope that no grower or packer could have any marked effect on it. Concerted action alone along these lines by growers or packers, or both, will accomplish it. We may assume that there are about 16,000 acres of bearing trees in this State, with the same acreage planted to young non-bearing trees. The pack of ripe olives last year was about 4,000 tons and the imports of green olives from Spain were substantially this same quantity, perhaps a trifle more. Using these figures as a basis, and considering the way our citrus crop has been handled and sold, even with its very rapidly expanding yield year by year, it seems most reasonable to assume that given the same efficient publicity and development, the market of the United States alone will consume all the ripe olives of proper pickling size and standardized as to package, which this State may grow for many years to come. Once the nutritive value of our ripe olives is appreciated throughout the East they will no doubt be placed in the food class instead of among the luxuries, and will be consumed in just...
