It is a good business for the man who has the energy and capital to make it go. But it is a business and not an amusement." | Volvedmlfldenthdiuipnulh hopes of day dreamers who think that once established, an orchard makes money of itself and affords a life of drowsy ease for the owner. I hi en t o e Emt lhummundhutl‘limm an acre to maintain it. CMultivating labor alone amounts to moreâ€"than $50 an acre to maintain it. Cultivating items include fertilizer, irrigation, fumigating materials, cost of picking, hauling, packing and marketing. "Altogether it costs around $235 on an average to produce a crop from one acre. With the best fortune a gross return of $570 will be received, but the original investment, the curâ€" rent expenses and the hard work inâ€" Rhm“t‘-nmloc‘l‘ unints in Liberia. It is all to the costs $190 an acre to orchard; $60 an acre t "The market price of suitable orâ€" ange land and water," Maulsby says, "is from $800 to $1,500 an acre not planted and from $1,200 to $3,000 an Orange growing is no business for the poor man who dreams of living an easy life after paying the first cost of a grove, 0. W. Maulsby, Caliâ€" fornia citrus fruit grower, warns in Farm and Fireside. 1 ORANGE GROWING NO BUSINESS FOR PIKER Takes Real Money to Operate Large Grove, as Overhead _ Is Very High ‘ In the thirteen large cities where the cost of living is less than the avâ€" erage there is no municipal ownerâ€" ship of electric, gas, street railway or telephone businesses. + | ‘ San Francisco owns a street railâ€" way system and the famous Hetchâ€" Hetchy water power development; Cleveland‘ owns a "successful" muniâ€" cipal lighting plant, according to municipal ownership advocates. So also does Jacksonville. Detroit and Seattle were both stampeded into purchasing agd operating their street railway system by the arguments and promises of the visionary advocates that both fares and taxes would be lowered. In each case fares actually have been increased and so have the taxes. |__ A report just issued by the Nationâ€" al Industrial Conference board states that San Francisco, Cleveland, Jackâ€" sonville (Fla.), Detroit and Seattle are the most expensive cities in the ( country in which to try to live at this time. In the survey just completed the index number or United States average was given as 100. The cost of living in San Francisco was found to be 112.9; Cleveland, 113.4; Jackâ€" sonville, 115.6; Detroit, 118.1; and Seattle, 123.8.. Of course taxes must always figure as a leading item in the indicates, that the Tive cities topfing the list "enjoy" the fuxury of muniâ€" cipal ownership, the greatest arguâ€" ment of which always is that it reâ€" duces the cost of living. E I France has lagged. In 1895 she { had 30,962 and today she has only 737,000 telephones â€"less than the | number in Chicago. â€" Belgium, also | badly hurt by the war, increased from | 8,667 in 1895 to 159,000 in 1926. .

Germany nearest approaches Amerâ€" ica‘s rate of growth, the number of telephones increasing from 115,007 in 1895 to 2,588,000 in 1926.â€" Great Briâ€" tain advanced from 73.333 to 1,380,â€" 000 telephones in,the same time. .‘ as many telephones as Germany, Great Britain, France, Belgium and Denmark combined. Comparative figures which show the growth of the telephone industry here and abroad since 1895 have been compiled recently. In 1895 this country‘s lead over other nations was not so great as the present time, but development under private ownership and initiative has made progress lue‘ much more rapid than in countries whereâ€" government ownership has been the rule. There were 285,400 telephones in the United States in 1895. In 1915 there were 10,046,000 and today the number of telephones in use exceeds 18,000,000.
