WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...MARCH 12, 1881 At the annual session of the Chicago Lumber Exchange, the President in his address stated that, if the present rate of depletion continues, it will take only twenty years to exhaust the pine forests of the country. This is a serious statement, and will arrest the attention of all thinking people. What is the remedy? It is time that Congress should discuss that question, and endeavor to solve it by wise legislation. It makes all the difference in the world whose ox is gored. If Mr. Parks, Speaker of the late Legislature, was to seek recreation in a trip to the southern counties, it is probable that if any reception was tendered him it would be of such a character as to induce him to make his stay short. But instead of coming South he went North, where he belongs, and at Marysville he was welcomed by bands of music, delegations of leading merchants and made quite a hero of by everybody. There can be no doubt that he represented his immediate constituency in his course in the Debris matter. But the stern fact remains that he has ruptured the Republican party in this State; and it remains to be seen whether, by applying a truss in the shape of an extra session of the Legislature, a cure will be effected. The Railroad Companies having brought suit against the Tax Collectors of the various counties in the State, to restrain them from collecting the tax levied by the State Board of Equalization, a convention of District The Value of Fertilizers. The remark which has been seen quite often in the public prints of late, that "manure is an uncertain quantity when applied to grapevines," is misleading and calculated to deter many persons from going to the trouble and expense of fertilizing their vineyards. Unless the idea is assiduously inculcated that the increased growth and vigor of fruit-bearing roots will more than repay the outlay incurred in the liberal use of fertilizers, there will always be many people who will neglect this very important adjunct of horticulture. For over fifteen years the vineyards of Anaheim received no fertilizing except such as was furnished by the rich river water used in irrigating. But a few years ago the diminished yield of the vines gave warning that the soil needed a return of some of the elements of which it had been drained for so many years, and manure, which had previously been thought of only as something offensive and undesirable, began to acquire some value. Two years ago all the vineyards were fertilized, and this year a similar zeal was displayed in recruiting the soil. Just how much the large yield of grapes the past season was due to this fertilizing it is difficult to determine, but it has been incontestably proven in many instances that the use of manure had completely revolutionized the soil, so to speak. We will cite one instance in illustration: A part of one of Mr. Dreyfus's vineyards had always been looked upon as worthless. The vines grew in a sickly, scraggy sort of way, and the grapes they bore hardly paid for the picking. No vegetation would grow on the ground. Two years ago a heavy coating of stable manure, mixed with grape refuse from which The Railroad Companies having brought suit against the Tax Collectors of the various counties in the State, to restrain them from collecting the tax levied by the State Board of Equalization, a convention of District Attorneys has been held in San Francisco to determine what was best to do about it. The conclusion they have come to is to employ Messrs. Hoge, Pillsbury and Delmas to act as special counsel in connection with the Attorney-General, the three gentlemen named to receive a fee of $10,000 for their services. The counsel are expected to defend about forty cases, but will endeavor to get the Railroad Companies to make a test case of one of the counties, thus deciding the matter with less trouble. The amount involved in these cases is $268,157, and the various counties are expected to pay their pro rata of the expense of special counsel. The United States Circuit Court at Chicago recently refused to naturalize a Chinaman, who applied for citizens' papers, and the New York 'Tribune' waxes wroth thereat. Among other things it says: "It is a disgraceful anomaly that while the most igno-rant Hottentot or Congo negro can become a citizen of this Republic, the best educated Chinaman is shut out from that privilege." The paper from which we quote is strongly in favor of giving the ballot to the Chinese, a class notoriously corrupt, without principle and having no interest in the welfare of this country—who, if they had votes to sell, would dispose of them for ten cents or less; but we are not aware that it has ever given its great influence towards creating a public opinion in favor of granting the ballot to the intelligent and incorruptible women of the country. It has plenty of tears to shed for the wrongs of the poor Chinaman, but only silence for the far greater wrongs under which the better half of this Republic suffer. Proctor Knott, the alleged humorist who represents Kentucky in Congress, made rather a neat remark when the bill appropriating $25,000 for sustaining the Entomological Commission was under discussion. The advocates of the bill spoke of the ravages of the cotton worm, and Mr. Knott said: "There would be more propriety in an amendment voting $10,000 to buy turkeys to catch the tobacco worms in my district, for I am sure a single turkey-cock is worth more in the extermination of insects noxious to agriculture than all the entomologists the Government has employed in the last ten years." "Where has the phylloxera gone?" is the conundrum with which the Sonoma vinegrowers are now wrestling. Examination of the roots of vines in ces that use of manure has completely revolutionized the soil, so to speak. We will cite one instance in illustration: A part of one of Mr. Dreyfus's vineyards had always been looked upon as worthless. The vines grew in a sickly, scraggy sort of way, and the grapes they bore hardly paid for the picking. No vegetation would grow on the ground. Two years ago a heavy coating of stable manure, mixed with grape refuse from which the acid had been extracted by exposure to the sun, was applied to this spot, and mark the result: No other similar number of vines in town yielded as many pounds of grapes. This astonishing result could be due to no other cause than extra thorough cultivation and liberal manuring. It should be remembered in this connection that the use of fertilizers causes a rank growth of clover and other grasses, and these being turned under by the plow at the proper time contribute in enriching the soil. In the case just quoted, the soil, upon which vegetation had never grown, was covered with a rank growth of clover. The vinegrower or orchardist who allows himself to be persuaded that it is a waste of time and money to give his ground an annual coating of some fertilizing material, will in course of time realize his folly while comparing his own impoverished trees and vines with those of his more sensible and energetic neighbor. I make no pretense as ledge, but it is a well among old soldiers that produce rain. If my right, the battles of Shir Corinth, Vicksburg, Jojob and Nashville, were each oous rains. It is a well that the rains which sows of the Wilderness extinguish brush and undergrowth and thus saved the lives soldiers. It is true these in a different climate from concussion produced rain not here? I have been salute fired at San Francisco Grant was followed by then the rainy season, but arrival and not the firing induced the rain. Many years ago, a applied to Congress for an 000,000 for the purpose all sections of country a In a speech before she the matter was referred sor gravelly informed the Congress did not pass she would drop the whole sould have no weather theory was to build largeduce rain. I do not be produce rain; they certa-the Atlantic nor in States. I do not remember we are not aware that it has ever given its great influence towards creating a public opinion in favor of granting the ballot to the intelligent and incorruptible women of the country. It has plenty of tears to shed for the wrongs of the poor Chinaman, but only silence for the far greater wrongs under which the better half of this Republic suffer. If one wanted to get a favorable criticism upon the character and achievements of George Washington, he would scarcely apply to an Englishman to write one for him. The late Thomas Carlyle, who, though a Scotchman, correctly expressed the English view of the matter, once said to James T. Fields: "I've been lately reading the life of your mighty George (Washington), by one Upham of Salem, and a poor enough creature I find George to be. He was a sad specimen of a great man, God help him—a good land surveyor and measurer of timber, but he had no faith and no religion. You must have a biography written about him that will take him down several pegs. Aye! but he was a poor stick enough, a sign-board sort o' feller, rest his soul!" Parton, the noted and notorious biographer, once visited the National Capital to get data for a life of Washington. He pursued his researches for a long time, and then abandoned the work. Some time afterwards he was asked why he did not complete his task, and his answer was: "If I was to write an honest biography of Washington I would be driven ignominiously from the country." "Where has the phylloxera gone?" is the conundrum with which the Sonoma vinegrowers are now wrestling. Examination of the roots of vines in the infected districts shows that the pest has put in a mysterious disappearance. The most powerful glass fails to bring him to view. He is not in the roots and he is not in the ground, but the unmistakable marks of his ravages remain. It is the most singular case of mysterious disappearance on record, and the Phylloxera Committee of the St. Helena Viticultural Society are making the most determined efforts to find him. They could not display greater solicitude if they had lost a near and dear relative. The Ischian Earthquake. New York, March 7th.—A London dispatch gives additional details of the destruction of Casamacciola. The shock occurred Friday afternoon and lasted seven seconds. It was accompanied by a noise like subterranean thunder, and then came a crash of falling houses, mingling with the shrieks of the victims. When it was over, mothers were found with infants still clinging to their breasts. At Villa Cametti, two girls playing upon a doorstep were struck dead by the falling architecture. Two hundred houses were thrown down and many others damaged and made uninhabitable. The killed numbered 104, and many more are injured. The total number of victims is estimated at 300. The wounded are being conveyed in steamers to the Hospital of the Pellagrinti, Naples. At Amnesa, 5 persons were killed and 13 houses destroyed. The panic stricken inhabitants are camping in the fields, afraid to venture back.

RAINFALL BY CONCUSSION. EDITOR GAZETTE:—What a prosperous portion of California would this be, if we only had an abundance of water! Many theories have been advanced with a view of remedying this evil. Within the past five years we have had the Bush irrigation law, and water companies upon water companies; more recently we have been told of the benefits to be derived from winter irrigation, and last of all, we have been advised to construct submerged dams in the beds of the streams. I have no doubt much can be accomplished by the two last named methods, and by constructing suitable reservoirs to store the surplus water in winter. The ditches used to convey the water to the lands to be irrigated are, many of them, badly located or constructed, so that much of the available water is wasted before it reaches the land upon which it is to be applied. With sufficient means, all this might be remedied, so that all the available water would be economically utilized upon the lands which are susceptible of irrigation, but the outlay would be enormous; and so long as the conflict for supremacy is kept up between the appropriators and riparian proprietors, concerning the right to the use of water from flowing streams, it is safe to say that no extensive work of a complete and perfect character will be constructed by any private individual or local community. It has been thought that the State would take this matter in hand, and give relief to the suffering farmers, but in view of the great outlay required, our Legislators hesitate—and well they may—before embarking in the enterprise. Two years will now intervene before we have another regular session of our Legislature—(if the next session, is to be like the last, I wish it were ten years instead of two.) During that time would it not be possible for the citizens of the counties of Los Angeles, San Bernardino and San Diego, through their respective Boards of Supervisors or otherwise, to inaugurate a series of experiments with a view of producing rain. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. A steady and most welcome rain commenced falling on Tuesday morning last and continued until Wednesday noon. The weather still looks unsettled, as if still promising rain. The Measrs. Swazy Brothers have greatly improved the ranch they bought of the Land Company. A belt of pepper trees almost surrounds it and an orchard has been planted out.

We hear that Mr. Aldridge has commenced digging potatoes. Mr. Giberson has sown a large acreage to potatoes on the mesa. The school library has received quite a large addition to its stock of books.

T.A.DARLING, Secretary Anaheim, Cal., March 8th, 1881. Notice to Creditors Of Estate of Charles Wagner, Dec'd. I feel quite certain in my own mind that heavy cannonading at almost any time during the past six weeks would have produced rain. Of course in trying such experiments the indications for rain should be closely watched and the attempt made when they are most favorable. If ordnance can not be temporarily obtained for this purpose, from the State or General Government, thick iron tubes might be constructed and one end buried in the ground, suitable for discharging cartridges of dynamite, which would produce the desired concussion. I make no pretense as to scientific knowledge, but it is a well established belief among old soldiers that heavy engagements produce rain. If my memory serves me right, the battles of Shilo, Belmont, Inka, Corinth, Vicksburg, Johnsonville, Franklin and Nashville, were each followed by copious rains. It is a well authenticated fact that the rains which succeeded the battle of the Wilderness extinguished the fire in the brush and undergrowth on the battle field and thus saved the lives of many wounded soldiers. It is true these battles were fought in a different climate from this, but if the concussion produced rain there, why will it not here? I have been informed that the salute fired at San Francisco to welcome Gen. Grant was followed by a rain. It was not then the rainy season, but perhaps Ulysses' arrival and not the firing of the salute produced the rain. Many years ago, a Professor Esappy applied to Congress for an appropriation of $1,000,000 for the purpose of producing rain in all sections of country afflicted by drought. In a speech before the Committee to which the matter was referred, the worthy Professor gravely informed the committee, that if Congress did not pass the appropriation, he would drop the whole subject and then they would have no weather at all. Espy's theory was to build large fires and thus produce rain. I do not believe extensive fires produce rain; they certainly do not do so in the Atlantic nor in the North Western States. I do not remember any rain immediately. San Francisco Market. Corrected weekly by Spear, Meade & Co., No. 415 and 418 Front St. S. F.

Esppy's theory was to build large fires and thus produce rain. I do not believe extensive fires produce rain; they certainly do not do so in the Atlantic nor in the North Western States. I do not remember any rain immediately after the great fires in Chicago and Boston. But down South, it is currently reported and generally believed, that burning cane brakes produce rain; this however is attributed to the concussion caused by the bursting of the cane joints, and the releasing of the inflated air confined therein. The reports sound like an army firing small arms. The cost of an experiment would not be great, and if successful, I have no doubt State aid could be procured, and this would be a panacea for all our woes. Our streams would be filled with water, and the supply being abundant there would be less cause for contention among the users. Those lands not susceptible of irrigation would prove fruitful; the ground would be saturated with moisture, the stock and bee men as well as the farmers would be benefited, and their hearts made glad by the bountiful yields of their respective industries; forests would spring up or could be readily grown and they in turn would produce rain. If the experiment failed to produce rain in the Spring and Summer, it might at least produce a heavy rainfall in the Winter.
