Olives 
Pichoiine Olives were quite extensively culti¬ 
vated on the coast of Georgia and South Caro¬ 
lina, previous to the Civil War, and an excellent 
quality of oil'was produced. Some of these 
plantings are still producing fruit which is 
used quite successfully for pickling. There is 
no reason why this industry should not be re¬ 
vived. 
A peculiarity of the Olive is that it flourishes 
and bears abundant crops on rock and barren 
soils, where no other fruit trees are successful.
