LUSCIOUS FRUITS
IS TAHITI'S BOAST
Almost an Endless, Variety o!
Toothsome Food Grows on
Trees Unaided *
About 40' kinds of fruit, including
nuts, grow In Tahiti. Of these, fei
(fay-ec) or plantain; vi Tahiti; moun
tain banana; ahia, a small inferior
fruit somewhat like .an apple; and the
Otahelte chestnut (iriecarpus edulls)
are indigenous. As breadfruit was
found here In abundance' by Captain
Took on his first visit in -1769, it is re
garded as also Indigenous. It is inter
esting to note that the British ship
Bounty, made famous by the niutiny
of its crew, who became the first set
tlers oh the island of Pitcairn, came
to Tahiti In 17S 8 to take breadfruit to
other tropical possessions of Great
Britain. ' ,
Until the Chinese shop keepers. and
bakers throughout the island of Tahiti
taught the natives, in the last three or
four . decades, to eat "bread made of
American ' flour, \u25a0 they .lived I almost
wholly on fruits and fish, -which are
still their principal articles of food.
The fruit most eaten by the natives is
plaintain, which they call fel. The
plantain Is of.ithe; same, genus as. the
banana; both are perennial herbaceous
plants of treelike, size;, with. Immense
leaves, each plant bearing one -bunch
of fruit at- the extreme .top and then
dying, to. the ground; to be succeeded
by another, plant. ." . . \u25a0', • '". '
: Next to plantain as" an article of na
tive diet comes breadfruit. This fruit
grows as large as a child's head; it, is ;
round or oblong in shape, of a green,
color, the outside being rough and
tuberculated. The common method of
preparing it Is to cut it in half, remove
the single" oblong seed,* and then bake
it on hot stones, on which shreds of
banana- plants are first -placed, the
\u25a0whole being-covered with large leaves i;
to retain the . heat. In this manner
the natives cook plantain and other
fruits, potatoes, fish and. meats, espe
cially young pigs whole, one of the
favorite dishes in Tahiti.- The cooked
breadfruit looks and' tastes somewhat
like an Inferior, white, mealy sweet
potato, while plantain looks and tastes
in spite of a ltttle acridity, rather more
like a yellow, soft and watery, baked,
sweet potato. Both are good substi
tutes for bread.
HOW FRUITS ARE EATEX j
The natives often .eat oranges, which
are plentiful, with breadfruit as a sub
stitute,for tea or. coffee at their early
mornlng meal. Mangoes of many varie
ties abound. They vary in size from a
few ounces to two pounds. In color
they are yellow, red or green or. a
blending of two of these colors. In
shape some are nearly round, others
oval and still others* kidney shaped,
most of them being somewhat flattened.
In taste some. have the- flavor of tur
pentine, others a delicious savor sug
gestive of a ' rich, : mellow peach. . They
are usually eaten by cutting off the
'part on each side^of the long, flat seed
and using a. spoon for,. these parts';
but the middle portion, containing the
seed, must.* be -ita-ken- in--.the fingers.
This fine fruit is- frequently. s«*en hang
ing by long?.' slender like, .fruit
on a Christmas' tr^p. There are hun
dreds of mango trees; in 'Papeete, and
in the height of the season many bush
els of this luscious fruit are carted off
daily In the removal- of rubbish"* from
the streets. There_ if?, too, an almost
endless variety of bananas, which vary
in size from the little fig banana, the
size of a finger, to the largest and best
of them all, the Samoan, which attains'
an extreme length of 10 Inches and a
•weight of two-thirds of a pound. A
banana should not be eaten until it is
fully ripe, just before it begins to de
cay. The natives like green bananas
boiled. In the Austral islands, one of
the five • groups in this consular dis
trict, bananas are dried In the tun ajjd
put up In packets wrapped tightly in
pandanus leave?.
SUPERABUNDANCE OF FRUITS
. The pineapples of the Society Islands
ar» of fine quality. Guavas, one of the
best fruits for making Jellies, grow
almoFt everywhere, and limes are so
plentiful that they rot under the trees.
Two limes and an orange :make- a de
licious drink for a tropical country.
The avocado (alligator pear) grows to
perfection in these Islands, where It
often attains a weight of four pounds.
It is of a dark green color.' even when
ripe, of the shape of a Bartlett pear,
though it sometimes has a rather long
neck like a gourd. It- has one large
seed, shaped like a boy's spinning top.
This rich, buttery fruit is best when
made into a. salad or. eaten with a sea
soningjof olive or other sweet oil. vine
gar, salt and pepper. One of the best
Tahiti fruits is the papaw or papaya,
the fruit of the carica papaya tree,
which has a branchless stem from 20
to 30 feet high, crowned with a tuft
of large, long stalked, palmately lobed
leave?. The fruit is borne on \ short
steins close to the body. of :the tree. It
resembles in shape, color and taste an
6blong muskmelon. and weighs from
one to five pounds. The numerous small
black seeds, contained in a large cavity
like that of the muskmelon.- have the
quality of pepsin. The watermelons
and niuskmelons of these islands are
not generally as good as those of the
United States, though one may now
and then get a cantaloupe or water-,
melon of fine quality. Both the sour
sop and custard apple .grow here, the,
latter being a delicious fruit,-^ It is
about the size of "an -orange, slightly
ovoid in > shape, pale, green in color,
the surface being distinctly reticulated.
Its soft white pulp is eaten with a
spoon. What' the natives call "vl
Tahiti" is the fruit" of the large tree.
Spondlas dulcls.. It Is about the size
of an orange, and highly prized by the
natives; it is eaten either raw. ; or
cooked. Among other fruits may be
mentioned the pomegranate,; fig, rose
apple, sapodilla, granadilla, tamarind,
and passion fruit.- A^fewi grapes are
cultivated and an inferior .peach ma>
be grown, but .the .climate, is too' warm
for both. Apples, pears, aprioats and
plums might be successfully cultivated
on high mountain slopes, but where so
many good fruits flourish without cul
tivation, it is too much to expect that
people will climb to 'any considerable
elevation in this climate to raise the
best fruit in the world.

CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETIES
PROVE BIG SUCCESSES
Organizations in Ireland Greatly
Aid the. People
Consul Henry B. Miller of Belfast
forwards the following report on agri
cultural and co-operative organizations
in Ireland: . - . '
', The Irish Agricultural society came
into being in 1894^ as a result of the
efforts of Sir HoVace . Plunkett and
others to develop agricultural co
operation \u25a0 in -, Ireland. .The movement
was slow in getting Under way, and it
was difficult to educate the agricul
tural people to the advantages in
volved and to create a sufficient in
terest among them to ' establish the
necessary organizations. The present
progress -of these organizations has
clearly ."established their importance
,£o the welfare, of the country.
-The extension of co-operative bank
ing to. Irish towns Is perhaps the most
marked movement at present. The
movement seems to ; have met with
popular interest and permanent suc
cess from its inception. , The urban
co-operative banks are organized,
owned and governed by the working
people, the purpose being to encourage
thrift and the utilization of savings
for .the benefit of the various commu
nities.' The membership embraces
tradesmen, clerks, artisans, etc. The*.*?
banks are not competitors in. any way
with the- joint stock bank organiza
tions of the country, as they deal wim
matters .of a minor . nature and .fill
a place that would otherwise be to
tally urisupplied. They are primarlly
co-operative' credit organizations, bor
rowing money in ma n^- cases and fur
nishing a substantial security, and
utilizing this money in minor ways for
the; special .industrial development of
localities. EISSi
• • These co-operative societies teach
possibilities .of organized ' progress
among the people, independent of gov
ernment assistance. They develop and
cultivate the spirit of self-reliance, and
apply the principles of community
of interest to those involved in a com
mon industrial occupation. The move
ment in Ireland is also beginning to
take on a higher purpose than that of
purely dollars and cents. .Many of
tlie co-operative societies . are setting
apart a certain percentage of their
profits for educational and socfal pur
poses and. for charitable to 'their
members.
-It is also believed by leaders in con
trol of these societies that by means of
co-operative organizations! the producer
will ; escape the. evils that .arise from
such ;trusts' and combinations as oper
ate between producers and consumers.
The producers naturally. '.become the
trust for the benefit of their people,
but by.this means they retain a proper
relation to the consumers and are en
abled so to regulate the prices and
methods of business that both parties
may' be benefited. The introduction of
this movement in Ireland leads to the

DRY MILK INDUSTRY
GROWING IN NORWAY
A company, capitalized at $160,000.
has recently been organized In Chrls
tiania for the . manufacture of .milk
meal or dry milk.^but it^ is. announced
that It will be some time before it be
gins active "operations. . «/.;•
;' In.- the meantime' another company
has, been organized ..with a capital of
one-half \paid up,' which will
enlarge the dry.mllk plant In operation
at Thime. a few, miles - from this city,
and-also' atNaerbo. These two plants
a re^ equipped with American machinery.
The plant at Thime has .been in suc
cessful " for /some time, but
the plant. at Naerbo "is "just being^ in
stalled. . \u25a0\u25a0-.:'\u25a0 "\u25a0/\u25a0.•:\u25a0 \u25a0

POSTOFFICE AT
LAYTON ROBBED
Two Men Suspected of Stealing
$1,252 Are in Custody
of Sheriff i
.FRESNO. Oct. 29.— TVord^ hasbeen
received here that ; 'Sheriff Chlttenden
'has arrested two ' men at Kingsburg
suspected of being the Latbn. postofflce
robbers, and is now on hia way to
Fresno with the prisoners. -. _ •
The sheriff left for Laton'in his aut^o
mobile immediately upon .being notinea
of the crime. His Investigation ••re
vealed"'that the sum of -money, stoie^
amounted to $1,252. which.: is much
larger than was at first reported, or
this'sum J533.87 was in stamps^" Regis
tered letters and stamped envelopes to
the value cf $500 were not touched.
The robbers Instead of using an
automobile to make their escape, as
was at first supposed, used a horse
stolen from Harrison Forsyth.
The animal -was found near K-lnsrs
burg late this morning covered with
perspiration and showing other signs
of hard usage.
United States Postofflce Inspector
Clarke E. Webster, who accompanied
the sheriff to Laton. has returned to
Fresno. He said that the robber.* was
apparently the work of amateurs.
PERMIT FOR FIREARiMS
NECESSARY IN RUSSIA
Travelers* Revolvers Are Seized
by Customs Officers
In answer to an inquiry. Consul Gen- •
eral John H. Snodgrass of Moscow fur
nishes the following information con
cerning the conditions' governing the
importation, sale and use of firearms
In -Russia:
The Russian law prohibits the free
importation of arms and ammunition
and requires that the Importer apply in
each , case for a permit, to the local
authorities, granting the importation of
a certain number and kind of firearms.
These permits are obtained by the
local merchant and in no way affect
the. foreign firm shipping the arms.
The law also requires that the Russian
dealer in firearms keep an account book
in which all the receipts and sales are
minutely entered, showing number and
kind of arms sold, to whom sold, and
giving particulars as to permit upon
which sold. The latter is retained by
the dealer.
The prospective customer must first
obtain a permit from the local authori
ties by applying to the police captain
of the district wherein he resides, who
ascertains, the standing, repute, habits,
etc., of the applicant, and then recom
mends the petition for approval by the
chief of police or. by the governor.
These permits are of two kinds: «a> To
purchase and keep a pistol or revolver
and 50 cartridges and (b) to buy and
carry a gun; only valid in theTespect
ive'. .town or province where' issued.
Permits for the entire empire j are
granted by the minister of the Interior
at St.' Petersburg. Foreigners gener
ally make the application through their
consul.
Arms amfammtmition found on pas
sengers entering Russia are confiscated
by the customs authorities at the Rus
sian frontiers and either forwarded to
any destination outside of Russia at the
owner's expense, or 'kept until the ob
ligatory permit has been procured.
PRICE OF PIASSAVA
FIBER DROPPED SHARPLY
Plassava -fiber at one time brought
up to $333 a ton in Liberia. Competi
tion in other African countries and in
South. America has forced this price
down at times to as low as $43 a ton.
In point of variety and scope the
forest work done on the Eiltmore
estate in North Carolina \s remarkable.
The forests, "which cover 130,000 acre 3.
are made profitable by the production
of various forms of material. Four
million feet of lumber, five thousand
ccrds of tannic acid wood and fuel, one
thousand cords of tanbark and several
hundred cords ,of pulpwood are cut
every.' year.
