Los Angeles Times, December 15th. The Directors of the Orange Growers' Protective Union held a meeting at the office of the Horticultural Commission, Baker Block, yesterday. Present, President Workman and Messra. Dobbins, Snow, Congar, Loop, Bettner, Twogood, Fullerton, and George Rice, Secretary. A number of prominent orange growers, not members of the Board, were present. Mr. Rose read an address urging producers not already in the Union to join. On motion of James Bettner the subject of arrangements with commission merchants was ordered taken up. Dr. Chubb made a verbal report of his work at Riverside in relation to securing subscriptions to the stock, and that the people of that district admitted the necessity of a union for the distribution of fruit. No definite action was taken, awaiting the action of the commission men, who really represent the crop of Riverside. Mr. Germain, being called upon for his views, said that he could not speak as a commission merchant, but as an owner, as he would only ship such oranges as he bought himself; that he could not see how the grower could afford to pay a commission merchant here and also pay a commission for doing business at the East; that he would be willing to pay $15 per car (which is only 5 cents a box) for the privilege of shipping through the Union. The following resolution was introduced: Resolved That any stockholder can ship his oranges through this union (attending to his own sales and paying his own commission), by paying five cents a box, and that at the end of the shipping season the excess collected shall be returned pro rata; that fruit sold here or in the East (if such fruit is sold east of the Colorado river), shall pay five cents per box; that the executive committee be instructed to make such binding contract with the said stockholder as shall insure the payment of such five cents per box to this union. The resolution was unanimously adopted.

CONSUMPTION, which is Scrofulous Disease of the Lungs. The following resolution was introduced: Resolved That any stockholder can ship his oranges through this union (attending to his own sales and paying his own commission), by paying five cents a box, and that at the end of the shipping season the excess collected shall be returned pro rata; that fruit sold here or in the East (if such fruit is sold east of the Colorado river), shall pay five cents per box; that the executive committee be instructed to make such binding contract with the said stockholder as shall insure the payment of such five cents per box to this union. The resolution was unanimously adopted after discussion and was agreed to by the commission men from Riverside and Mr. Germain of this city. At this juncture the directors and visitors were treated to a fine lunch by L. J. Rose. AFTERNOON SESSION. During the discussion in the afternoon the following letter was received: W. H. Workmain, President—DEAR SIR: After due consideration we have concluded that there would be no benefits adverse to us by joining the association; therefore, if we can join the union on no other terms than those proposed to-day, we would respectfully withdraw. GERMAIN FRUIT CO. PORTER BROS. & CO. E. W. EARL The letter was taken up and discussed, and was generally considered as a move towards breaking up the union, and the following resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas As will be seen by the letter of withdrawal of the Messrs. Germain, Porter Bros. & Co. and E. W. Earl from the Orange Growers' Protective Union, there is a serious defection, and one that will work hardship to every producer of oranges of this section, and is very discouraging to all the well-wishers or producers in Southern California, and making the burden much heavier and its usefulness of less scope and benefit; therefore be it. Resolved By the Directors that they see a great necessity of going on with this work of protecting this interest, and that all growers are called upon to give us their individual support, in order to make success doubly assured. Resolved That this move has the appearance of an attempt in the interest of orange buyers to break up this organization, and thereby to enable them to obtain fruit on their own terms from the growers. Perhaps these gentlemen have no such intention, but it might be construed as if they wished to profit by our organization without bearing any of its burdens. Mr. Woodhead, formerly ot Porter Bros. & Co., said: If you do not form a Union the dealers will get your oranges for fifty or sixty cents; but, with a Union, you will realize $1. $125 and $1.50. Quite a lively discussion arose, in which Dr. Congar said that the opposition of the dealers was intended to crusin 2,500 producers, and fill the pockets of three greedy firms. Mr. Bettner advised that the Union go ahead and let the dealers go to the devil. Mr. Woodhead said that the Union would injure and not benefit the dealers. A committee consisting of Messrs. Bett- CONSUMPTION, which is Scrofulous Disease of the Lungs, is promptly and certainly arrested and cured by this God-given remedy, if taken before the last stages of the disease are reached. From its wonderful power over this terrible fatal disease, when first offering this now celebrated remedy to the public, Dr. Pierce thought seriously of calling it his "Consumption Cure," but abandoned that name as too limited for a medicine which, from its wonderful combination of tonic or strengthening, alternative, or blood-cleansing, anti-bilious, pectoral, and nutritive properties, is outquired, not only as a remedy for consumption of the lungs, but for all. CHRONIC DISEASES OF THE LIVER, BLOOD, AND LUNGS. If you feel dull, drowsy, debilitated, have shallow color of skin, or yellowish-brown spots on face or body, frequent headache or dizziness, bad taste in mouth, internal heat or chills, alternating with hot flashes, low spirits and gloomy borebodings, irregular appetite, and coated tongue, you are suffering from Indigestion, Dyspepsia, and Torpid Liver, or "Biliousness." In many cases only part of these symptoms are experienced. As a remedy for all such cases, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has no equal. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, Shortness of Breath, Bronchitis, Severe Coughs, Consumption, and kindred affections, it is a sovereign remedy.

New York, Dec. 7.—Beecher said in Plymouth Church yesterday: "There are two ways of treating the Chinese question. One is to damn them; the other is to save them. You can judge which is the Christian way. One would think we were a boastful nation and monopolized the Christianity and civilization of the world, to hear us on the Fourth of July and other days; but when we have imported the beaten and have them at our doors, they don't smell good. Our zeal, that would send missionaries to heathen lands, is suddenly influenced by our esthetic senses. If Christ had treated the world as we treat the Chinese, he would have gone to Jupiter or Saturn, because we were ragged and dirty. The wisdom and true Christianity of educating and reforming men have always been vindicated. I am glad there are not a few Chinese classes in this city, and some of the work is done in tuis church."

Mr. Julius King, who is the examiner for color blindness for the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad, has discovered a remarkable case. The patient is an employee of the railroad company. He is a man about 40 years old, and is a fireman. Mr. King made three tests in his case. First, colored glass globes were placed over a gas jet, and the man, at a distance of 20 feet away, asked to tell the colors. He named the red globe correctly when it was first used, but on second trial declared it to be green. Then railway signal flags of different colors were waved before him. He called the red flag green, the green flag red, and when two flags, both red, but of different shades, were waved, the fireman insisted that they were green. Red and green flags held up together he declared to be green. The next test was made with a small rack in which hung zaphyr worsted of different colors. The standard color of green was pointed out to the man, and he was asked to select the worsted in the rack of the same color. He immediately picked out bright red, old gold and light brown bunches. The unfortunate fireman had to be discharged. Mr. King said that he had examined a very large number of men for color blindness, and that about four men in every one hundred are defective in their eyesight in this respect. But very few people are as color blind as the fireman. He said that women were seldom found color blind; as they constantly trained their eyes in selecting colors in ribbons and dry goods, and in discriminating between delicate shades and tints. In answer to a question, Mr. King explained: "The theory of the cause of color blindness is that parts of the retina of the eye respond each to different colors. When any of these parts are deficient, absent or undeveloped, the person cannot see the color that it belongs to, leaving some other responsive part to act."—Des Moines Leader. Kissed by Mail.

A young postmaster of a village postoffice was hard at work when a gentle tap was heard upon the door, and in stepped a bashful maiden of 16, with a money order, which she desired cashed. She handed it to the official with a bashful smile, who, after closely examining it, handed her the money it called for. At the same time he asked her if she had read what was written on the margin of the order. "No, I have not," she replied, "for I could not make it out. Will you please read it for me." The young postmaster read as follows: "I send you $3 and a dozen kisses." • Glancing at the bashful girl, he said: "Now, I have paid you the money, and I suppose you want the kisses." "Yes," she said, "if he has sent me any kisses I want them, too." It is hardly necessary to say that the balance of the order was promptly paid, and in a scientific manner at that, and eminently satisfactory to the country maiden, for she went out of the office smacking her lips as if there was a taste on them she had never encountered before. After she arrived home she remarked to her mother: "Eh, mother, but this postoffice system of ours is a great thing, developing more and more every year, and each new feature added seems to be the best. Jimmy sent me a dozen kisses along with the money order, and the postmaster gave me twenty. It beats the special delivery system all hollow." A Device for Plecketing Horses. The little grass plots that grow by the side of the road often tempt people to picket out horses and cows to graze upon them, greatly to the disgust of travelers, for there is nothing so dangerous as driving a team across a picket rope. We noticed near the Dry Slough school house the other day an ingenious device which avoids the objection. The picket rope was run through the ring of a short chain and both ends made fast. The horse was then fastened to the chain, and he could walk up and down the grass plot without being able to cross the road. This is very simple and cheap, and people who picket animals along the road should remember it—Colusa Sun. Scottish Agriculturists. New York, Dec. 10.
