ORANGES ARE PLENTIFUL
Scientific Cultivation Oue of Factors
Which Makes Price of Citrus
Fruits Low
With an anticipated output of 43.-
000 cars of oranges and t!.oou cars of
lemons from the State of California,
citrus fruits promise to be conspicuous
during the present season and avail
able at prices even- lower than apples.
The new navel crop now coming ou the
market is the finest fruit ever seen at
this time of the year. The iemou Har
vest will double that jf last season and
in a few years Californians will pro
duce a crop of sufficient size to elimi
nate the necessity ot foreign importa
tion.
Sin«e 1596, when the California
Fruit Growers' Kxc'iange was vigau
ized, the ehrus industry has been de
veloped from a hazardous undertaking
to a profitable enterprise. During the
past decade, while the populatton of
the United increased 21 per
cent., the consumption of California
oranges increased 7 4.6 per cent. The
aim of the Exchange shivers is to
make the name Sunkist a guarantee t<:i
the purchaser of the quality of the
fruit. Iu other words, by careful grad
ing and selection t.-ey Him to maintain
such a high standard that the name
Sunkis; on citrus fruits will convey the
assurance of the term Sterling on sil
ver.
The California Fruit Growers' Ex
change. which packs the Sunkist brand,
is made up of 7.000 growers, wno are
voluntarily affiliated and aim to mar
ket their fruit at the lowest possible
expense. This gisautic federation has
succeeded iu reducing the marketing
cost to 1 3-5 per cent, on the gross
sales, which is the lowest of that or
any agricultural crop in the world. It
accumulates no profits and declares no
dividends.
The influence of packing a depend
able quality of fruit is clearly reflected
in the increased demand for citrus
fruits. I.ast year the Sunkist people
shipped 61.9 per cent, ol' the crop of
oranges, or 10.156.724 boxes. In ad
dition, they handled about 75 per cent,
of the lemon output. 9r 1,105,461
boxes, making a total of 28.195 car
loads.
Scientific cultivation, efficient mar
keting, the elimination or' unnecessary
rehandling and the ability TO nandle
in tremendous quantities are the main
factors which have made it possible
for the Sunkist people to place their
fruit in practically every store in the
country at prices which render
available to rich and poor alik.v
Pulling Out Posts
The trick of lifting oneself by one's
boot straps may appear 9ome>what diffi
cult, but a machine has been built
wnich does that. It is intended to puH
out piles which have been driven in so
firmly by a pile driver that they cannot
be pulleid up by ordinary means. The
machine is clamped to the top of the
pile, whieh it. grips firmly and auto
matically. Steam is supplied through a
hose. The steam lifts a heavy weight
in the machine and lets it drop sudden
ly. By an arrangement of levers the
force of the blow, instead of being
downward on the top of the pile, is up
ward.
The main difficulty in pulling up a
pile is to get it started, but a quick se
ries <jt these blows soon starts the pile.
The machine keaps knocking it up until
it moves easily, when no more prog
ress can be made, and the pile must be
lifted out with ropes.—Saturday Even

QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts Before Breakfast
If Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Is Troubling You
. No man or woman who eats meat reg
ularly can make a mistake by flushing i
the kidneys occasionally, says a well-1
known authority. Meat forms uric acid
which excites the kidneys, they become
overworked from the strain, get slug
gish and fail to filter the wastq and .
poisons from the blood, then we get
sick. N'earlv all rheumatism, headaches,
liver trouble, nervousuess, dizziness,
sleeplessness and urinary disorders come !
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in ,
the kidneys or your back hurts or if the j
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi
ment, irregular of passage or attended
by a sensation of scalding, stop eating
meat and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take a
tablespoouful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in a few days your kid
neys will act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate the kidneys, also to neutralize
the acids in urine so it no longer causes
irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
Jad jpalts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
| pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
I complications.—Adv.

"The Old Homestead"
The return to the Majestic on Thurs

from the dreaiitful tidings of conflict.
Lacking but one year, it vyas thirty
j years ago when "The Old Homestead"
s absorbed undivided attention, as a play
(calculated to bring fame and fortune
to its originator, the late Denman
1 Thompson. Since then, the wildest
hopes for its continued success have
been more than realized. No other
play, with a plain, simple story, had
| ever before, or has since, captivated so
| completely, as has this Pastoral Idyl,
j depicting New England characters with
! such fine fidelity.
From coast to coast, year after year,
Uncle Joshua Whiteomb, and all thai
twenty odd impersonations in this play, j
fcave been cordially esteemed as old'
I friends. A dozen of the actors in the \

Our Mn**tve Electric Sl(tn with the
Diving tilrl* will he lllunilnnted to
night at neveu-thlrt.v. From the Novel b.v Mary J. Holme*
this week is the much advertised ve
hicle "Milk," which is really a power
ful little playlet telling a story of the
slums in a humorous, yet serious way.
It ise full of dramatie" interest. The
story is that of a "little mother," who
finds that her baby sisters and brothers
aTe ailing and thinks that it is the milk
receiving. She goes to the he.%l of a
big milk concern to complain and is un
consciously drawn into a campaign
against impure milk.
Miss Clayton, as might be expected is
the "little mother,", and she plays the
part to perfection. Miss Clayton has
the support of an excellent company.
"Milk" is backed up by oae of the
best comedy shows the Or| heum has
see®. Mack ami Orth. the clever sing
ers and comedians; O'Brien Havel and
compajiy, presenting "Monday," and
Bogonghi, the tiny rider of a big beau
tiful horse, might all three justly bo
termed one big scream from start to
finish. Thrills, fun and novelty are
happily blended into one excellent bild.

At the Colonial
"The Isle of Wishes." the biggest
and most ambitious production ever
shown at the "Busy Corner," is a
veritable fairyland, where beautiful
fairies in gardens of roses an*l real
fountains present one of the most novel
and spectacular features we have seen.
It is really all a dream, the dretim of
a man, who imagines hie is carried to
the garden of fairies. Here he joins in
the song and frolic and falls in love
with the Princess of the fairies. "The
Isle of Wishes" is an allegory, clever in
conception, and pretentious and ought
to please Colonial patrons immensely.
A comedy sketch, brim full of laughs;
a very clever couple in late songs and
| a wizard accordion player round out an
unusual vaudeville show. "Wives," an
excellent picture play in three parts,
1 will delight admirers of good moving
pictures.—Adv. *
