About a century ago, at Bahia, in Brazil, a new orange appeared. The fruit was a freak, without seed, says Nature Magazine. To the knowing in orange growing, however, this orange suggested much. Nevertheless, it was fifty years be fore William Saunders, chief of th government's propagating station here, got twelve of the trees produ ing this fruit into the country. Th: died, but others were reproduced, two 'trees were gent to California in 1873 Rich in romance of its settlement, California can number these trees as 1wo of the most important things that «ver crossed the continent. They gave birth to the entire navel orange in- dustry of the western state. Still alive today and bearing fruit, these trees are responsible for a large per- centage_of the groves which cover nearly 200,000 acres of California’s soil. Florida was the early center of the orange industry of the United States. It rapidly advanced to contend at home with the fruit from the Medi- terranean. Just as it was threatening invasion of the markets of Europa came the freezing winter of 1894-95. The crop failed. For the next decade it was an uphill battle to repair the loss. Con- fidence restored, however, .the orange industry of the southern state is 2gain on a firm basis. Louisiana's groves suffered also from the cold winter, and the state has only res cently come forward again. In California a citrus industry rep- resenting more than $200,000,000 ot capital and employing nearly 50,000 people was built up. Oranges are the most important figure ate came forward to sup- fths of the home demand yellow fruit and to compete in foreign markets, The Cycle of Life.

Is there any reason why Dunlop Tires should give better than average mileage? Yes—Iayers of East Indiz rubber, between the cords, keep them COOL—nearly frictionless.
