THE SHEPHERD TO THE KING.
The following is taken from a poem by a Scottish shepherd published upon the occasion of the fifty-year jubilee of George III:
I live! the cottage where Norval was bred in,
You live in the palace your ancestors reared;
Nae guest uninvited dare come to our wedding!
Nor ruthless invader pluck us by the beard.
Then thanks to the island we live in, where shipping skims round us abreast, or like goose in a string,
Then safe I can say as my brose I am sipping,
I'm fifty years shepherd; you're fifty a king.
But, ah! royal George, and ah! humble Norman,
Life to us both draws near to a close;
The years far awa that was our natal hour, man,
The time's at our allow that brings us repose
But even let it come sire, if conscience acquit us,
A sigh from our bosom death never shall wring.
And may the next jubilee among angels meet us,
To hall-the old shepherd, and worthy old king

ORCHARD, FARM, GARDEN AND VINEYARD.
PROFIT IN PRUNES.
There is a large profit in the growing of French prunes. Storey Brose, from a little patch of less than two acres of prune trees, on their place in town, gathered last year sufficient prunes to make, when dried, three tons or six thousand pounds. These sold at seven cents, making $420, or about $250 gross per acre. The expense attending their cultivation and curing is light, not exceeding fifty dollars per acre. All the trees referred to are not yet in full bearing. The wise farmer should try to have a greater diversity of products in the future and not rely on one particular thing, which is liable to become overdone.—St. Helena Star.
THE CATE PALM.
I no count date palm is attracting and is being extensively planted for its fruit. It is a beautiful tree, and in its native country will bear a full crop of dates in eight years from the seed—in this climate it may take longer. When grown the tree is eighty feet high. It fruits in August, yielding from 100 to 400 pounds of dates to a tree. The cultivation of this tree for its fruit will doubtless become a great industry in this State, especially on the hot, sandy plains of the San Joaquin. The seeds of dates that may be bought at any grocery store are used by the Fresno people in planting.—San Jooquin Herald.
PROFITS OF DRIED APRICOTS.
A prominent fruit grower recently received from Chicago an account of sales of dried apricots. They were sold in that market for 20 cents a pound. He could probably have sold many thousand pounds more at way—by simply laying flat and covering with they root at every joint.

King Otto of Bavaria's mania is an unconquerable desire to shoot peasants. He is given a gun with blank cartridges, and peasants, for a slight remuneration, pass within shooting distance, and go through with the pantomime of falling when they hear the report of the gun. And so the crazy and lately-dethroned monarch has been "amused."

Washington Critic.
A correspondent evidently taking us for a natural history journal, wants to know of a recipe that will keep a cat from killing chickens. Our usual mode is to open the cat's mouth as far as possible, reach down her throat far enough to get a good grip on her tail, and then neatly and suddenly turn her inside out. Then, if she forgets herself and eats a chicken, the feathers get tangled up in the fur and—the convention is unanimously adjourned. —Puck.

PROFITS OF DEED APRICOTS.
A prominent fruit grower recently received from Chicago an account of sales of dried apricots. They were sold in that market for 20 cents a pound. He could probably have sold many thousand pounds more at the same price. When the commissions and freight were deducted it left him as a net result about 17 cents a pound for his dried apricots. This is just about equal to 35 cents a pound for the green fruit, which is about 33 per cent. more than the ruling price paid at the canneries last year. This result sustains the opinion expressed in this paper many months ago that the true way to avoid gluts in the local market, both here and on the other side of the country, is to dry all the surplus fruit. In the instance here quoted the fruit grower had bleached his fruit by a very simple process. He sent it to market in good order. Now, if the fruit grower can obtain better results by drying his fruit, he will finally adopt that method. It evolves extra work and considerable care and skill. But in the instance cited there was this special advantage. The apricots were soft—they would not bear transportation. He could not have sold that fruit at one and one-half cents per pound. —San Jose Mercury.
RAMIE CULTURE.
For years past parties have been experimenting in the culture of ramie. Ramie is a species of nettle, though it carries no stings, and the fiber from it is the strongest and best produced by an textile plant. It can be made as knue and glossy as silk, and is said to be much stronger, but it can also be used in a coarser state for ropes or cloth of any kind. Its general introduction has, however, been retarded because of the difficulty experienced in decorating the fiber, or separating it from the wood and gummy substance which envelopes it. But this difficulty has now, it is said, been overcome, a machine having recently been patented which quickly and cheaply deiberizes the plant, and a company has been incorporated for the manufacture and sale of the machines, and will also endeavor to stimulate the culture of the plant. The estimated yield of the ramie plant is from one to three crops per season, and about 4000 pounds of cleaned fiber per crop. The selling price of the fiber is 5 cents per pound, or for two crops per season, $400 per acre, and the cost of production is put at from $60 to $80 per acre. We are of the opinion that the long summers in this valley would enable the production of three crops per annum, so that even though the selling price is estimated too high, there would certainly be money in growing the plant. We think it safe to put ramie down as a leading future vineeis known as couleur lent this season, and in grape yield in certain drees by one half.

A heavy rainstorm visited Nogales, A. T., on Thursday of last week. The streets were flooded with water, and bridges and dams were swept away. The storm came from a source from which no other storm has ever come. This fact is regarded as an indication that the coming year will mark an increase of the rain supply in the Territory.
After the recent maneuvers of the German Army, a serenade by 1200 performers was given by night in honor of the Emperor.

The lamp was fed by means of insulated wires running along the baton.

Writing of the ramie plant, Prof. Hilgard says: "Ramie will grow in our climate to perfection; not only on strong soil, but on alkali lands, which are practically worthless for other purposes, and from two to three crops per year can be cut, and that uninterrupted prolific growth will be the result."
FLORICULTURE.
John S. Hittell of 1025 Hyde street, San Francisco, announces that seeds of the umbrella or stone pine (Pinus pinea) and of the acanthus, from the Italian Ministry of Agriculture, will be sent gratuitously to all head gardeners of public and private parks in California who have not already received them. The seeds are rare and valuable.
Pink or carnation cuttings should be planted deep, and kept moist, not wet. Using as for the hothouse, the new shoots cut back, but selecting the larger and older, rather than the very tender ones. Pull off all the under leaves, and cut the others back to a small top.
Heliotropes are among the hardest plants to root from cuttings, being very tender. To do this out of doors, select the woodiest stalks, cutting off every bit of soft wood and all leaves. Plant them in a cool, shady spot and keep moist, never allowing them to dry out. It takes longer for them than some others, but they will root if properly cut or planted.
Magnolias, lemon verbenas, jessamine and shrubs of that sort, are quite easily rooted by using the newer wood, taking large cuttings, giving them partial shade and keeping them moist. They require more time than roses.
Verbenas are easily propagated in this culture of the plant. The estimated yield of the ramie plant is from one to three crops per season, and about 4000 pounds of cleaned fiber per crop. The selling price of the fiber is 5 cents per pound, or for two crops per season, $400 per acre, and the cost of production is put at from $60 to $80 per acre. We are of the opinion that the long summers in this valley would enable the production of three crops per annum, so that even though the selling price is estimated too high, there would certainly be money in growing the plant. We think it safe to put ramie down as a leading future product of this valley.
ALKALI LANDS MADE PROFITABLE.

Pew know that pansies root quite readily from cuttings. Take the older branches, and bury deep, keeping them moist and shaded, and they soon root, if never allowed to dry out.
Pelargoniums, rose, and all varieties of geraniums (especially the high-scented ones) require heat and sunlight.
FRESNO'S GRAPE AND BERRY CROP.
E. Kirby, owner of an extensive winery and vineyard near Fresno, reports that there will be not only an exceptionally large yield of wine grapes this year in that section, but that the berry crop will be large and is already coloring. He said it would be the largest yield ever known there. Berries are much larger and everything about them more promising.
Reports from the north and middle sections of the State indicate that the crop will be below the average.
DISEASED VINES.
Clarence J. Wetmore, Secretary of the Board of State Viticultural Commissioners, says that the annual affliction to the grape-vines, known as couleur, is unusually prevalent this season, and in consequence the grape yield in certain districts will be decreased by one-half. The counties so far heard from are Alameda, Santa Clara, Sonoma and Napa, the Riesling variety of grape being the one suffering most from the affection in the last mentioned place.

RECENT RACES.
The Ladies' Summer Meeting, recently held at Agricultural Park, Los Angeles, was well attended and added largely to the sporting record of California deland.
The Gazette was pleased to note the judgment and horse knowledge evinced by those who had the stock in charge.
Ed. Heath was in charge of Baldanero's Freano stable and Scamper Down looked his best. Scamper Down is a brown sommelier, five years old, aired by Jim Renwick, one of the most famous short-distance masters in the world.
The stable of Owena Bros. was looked after by J. N. Van Winkle, an accountant in the business.
On the first day the favorites were Minnie Stratton and Oro. Minnie won the introduction stake. The charity stake, however, was won by Manzanito, Oro, the favorite, being beaten. The favorites won two out of three races, but Manzanito succeeded in defeating Oro in two straight heats.
The attendance on the second day was fully up to the standard. Billy Johnson's victory over Adam, in the race for the San Diego stakes, was wholly unexpected. A good start was effected and Billy Johnson assumed the lead, closely pressed by Adam, with Johnnie Gray last. At the half Billy led by a neck. Coming down the straights whips were freely used, but the Glenleg gelding won the race, and Johnnie Gray, who came up with a burst of speed near the end, beat the favorite, Adam, for second place.
The recent races at Eastern points have the tenth another error by Capt. Amson allowed the Washington to win. Val Halten, the California all-around player, did the best batting of any of the Chicago team. He is a ball-player. Score: Chicago, 3; Washington, 4.
Indianapolis has lost to New York and Boyle's pitching has come in for a large share of blame. His friends claim, however, that it was not Boyle's pitching that lost the game to the Indianapolis Club, and that he had it well won for his team up to the seventh inning, when a number of costly errors gave the New Yorks five runs. Score: Indianapolis, 10; New York, 11.
The superior fielding and better hitting of the Philadelphia club got away with the Detroit. Broutner's home run was one of the features. While the general playing of both nines was good, there was listlessness about it that spoiled much of the interest of the game. Score: Detroit, 5; Philadelphia, 10.
The recent match played between the Los Angeles juveniles—Horseshoe and Tribunes—resulted in a victory for the Tribunes by a score of 15 to 14. At the end of the 8th inning the score stood 14 to 10. Then the Horseshoes came to the bat and made four runs. The Tribunes proved equal to the occasion, however, Artie Bumiller scoring the winning run.

MANURING THE VINES.
The Government committee in France, after several years' investigation in manuring the grape vine and of results of a series of experiments with potash manure, report strongly against nitrogenous manures, including stable manure, as being "more hurtful than useful," which accords with common practice; also, that feeble grape-vines consume as much manure as vigorous vines. Potash should enter into the composition of manures for grape-vines, the elements in the soil being generally in bad condition for assimilation; potash carries forward in some way, with it the other fertilizing principles. Potash from the root passes to the vine, to the leaves, then to the twigs, to arrive at last at the fruit, of which it favor the development. Its migration is comparable to those of the nitrogenized elements and phosphates. The potash introduced through the root in the course of a season is not entirely consumed, since it is found after fructification, reserved in sufficient quantity, in the wood and in the twigs—Rural Messenger.
BLFACHING RAISINS.
The San Francisco Bulletin has the following: "Executive Officer Wheeler of the Viticultural Commission is soon to issue a circular of information respecting raisin-drying. Recently he has received many inquiries regarding the drying of seedless Sultana raisins from persons chiefly in Southern California, who are expecting a large yield of Sultana grapes the coming season. The little Sultana raisins are used chiefly for cooking purposes, and it has been learned that the imported article brings 25 per cent. more in this market than the California Sultana product. The reason for this is believed to be due to the fact that imported raisins are bleached before drying. This gives them a clear, translucent hue instead of a dried brown color. An inexpensive and simple process of bleaching is recommended. A solution of concentrated lye is used instead of sulphur fumes. The solution tried with success consists of about eight pounds of lye to forty gallons of water. The solution is kept in large, shallow vats, and the fruit on trays is dipped into it, remaining from one to two minutes and then being put into the dryer after a short period for draining. The cost of this process of bleaching is said to be less than $1 for a ton of grapes.
Fruit Growers Multiplying.
Statistics printed by the Marysville Appeal, from the Secretary of the State Board of Horticulture, shows a large increase in the number of fruit growers. In five years the number has risen to 12,000 from 7,000.
The attendance on the second day was fully up to the standard. Billy Johnson's victory over Adam, in the race for the San Diego stakes, was wholly unexpected.

Coming down the straights whips were freely used, but the Glenleg gelding won the race, and Johnnie Gray, who came up with a burst of speed near the end, beat the favorite, Adam, for second place.
The recent races at Eastern points have been specially interesting to Californians because of the presence there of California horses.
The meeting at Chicago opened auspiciously with fair weather and a fine track. Haggins' Aurelia (a Californian) won the second one-mile race with Carnage second. The third one-mile race, Englewood stakes, was won by Miss Ford a California mare owned by Lucky Baldwin; time, 1:44.
The Coney Island races this year attracted much attention from English and other European turfmen. The first race, three-quarters of a mile dash, for 2 year-olds, was won by Tea Tray, Bay Ridge second, Pocatillo third; time, 1:15; seven starters. Second race, one mile—Won by Troubadour, O'Fallon second, Duplex third; time, 1:41; six starters. The sixth and last race, one mile dash on turf—Won by Choctaw, Wonderment record, Grenadier third; time, 1:44. This record shows that Troubadour beat Miss Ford's one mile dash 3½ seconds and that Choctaw beat the time of the California mare one-half second.
Following is the Monmouth Park (N.J.) record: First race, three-quarters of a mile—Won by Ellián, Preciosa second, Cambrius third; time, 1:15; seven starters. Second race, three-quarters of a mile, for 2-year-old—Won by Prince Royal, Anibat second, Satished third; time, 1:17; six starters. Third race, one mile—Kingdom won; Esquimaux second, Tarbouche third; time, 1:45; eleven starters. Fourth race—Won by Himalaya, Adrian second, Brynwood third; time, 1:58. This time was beaten at Chicago by the California mare and beaten at Coney Island by Troubadour and Choctaw. It was also beaten by Jacobin at the Chicago July races; time, 1:42. Prince Royal has been sold to W.R.Babcock for $1500. The Haggins have sold their gray golding, Ichi Ban, to Alfred Lakeland for $3000.
The race for the imperial gold cup, run at the Newmarket, England, July meeting was won by Ormonde, White Friar second, Lovegold third. No other starters.

Statistics printed by the Marysville Appeal, from the Secretary of the State Board of Horticulture, shows a large increase in the number of fruit growers. In five years the number has risen to 12,000 from 7,000 in 1882, an average of 1000 a year. The relative increase has been very large in Los Angeles and other counties in Southern California where the boom has been pronounced. The Secretary has endeavored to obtain the address of every fruit grower in the State, and thinks the list approximately correct, although it cannot be entirely complete. The list is of orchardists.
Labor Arbitration in Massachusetts
The Massachusetts Arbitration law has been amended. Hitherto the Board has been unable to act in the adjustment of any labor difficulty except at the request of one or both parties to the dispute. But under the new provisions it becomes the duty of the Mayor of a city or the Board of Selectmen of a town, when they learn that a strike or lockout of such a character as described in the Act is seriously threatened, or has actually occurred, to notify the State Board of the facts. Then the arbitration machinery may be set to work.

W. D. Hoyt & Co., Wholesale and Retail Druggists of Rome, Ga., say: We have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery, Electric Bitters and Bucklen's Arnica Salve for two years. Have never handled remedies that sell as well, or give such universal satisfaction. There have been some wonderful cures effected by these medicines in this city. Several cases of pronounced consumption have been entirely curbed by use of a few bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery, taken in connection with Electric Bitters. We guarantee them always. Sold by A. Krug.
