To Prevent Cholera.
Although the "cholera scare" is happily past, and even though we never for a moment believed it would reach the glorious climate of California, yet we feel ourselves impelled to publish the following rules about preventing the dread disease, just to be on the safe side.
Cholera is contracted by taking the gorms into the system through the mouth, as in food or drink—or from the hands, clothing, dishes, etc. Thorough cooking destroys the germs.
If cholera should develop in this country, observe the following rules:
Don't eat raw, uncooked articles of any kind, not even milk.
LETTER FROM PANAMA.
CAPT. WOOD WRITES OF HIS EXPERIENCES ON THE WAY DOWN—a PLEASANT VOYAGE—the CANAL.
PANAMA, Central America. Aug. 31, 1892.
EDITOR ANAHEIM GAZETTE — I have just arrived in this port on my way to Cartagena in the Republic of Colombia, South America, and thinking that a slight recapitulation of my trip and observations made on the way down might be of interest to your readers. I will endeavor to note them down and forward them by the first steamer bound North. I took passage for this port on the steamer San Blas of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, from San Francisco Monday noon August 15th. The ship sailed with a full quota of passengers and a heavy cargo of freight. The first four days of the trip were cool and really enjoyable, but soon after passing the latitude of Southern California the weather began growing warmer, and on the 19th, 20th and 21st it was hot, and especially so as we passed the Gulf of California going to Acapulco, Mexico. This was the first port we made and we all expected to find the weather very terrid here, but were happily disappointed. We landed there on Monday, Aug. 23d, at 9:50 a.m. and found the sky overcast and some breeze to comfort us.
Acapulco is about 1,600 miles from San Francisco and in the faucet port of Mexico on the Pacific. It is about 190 miles south-westerly from the City of Mexico; situated in latitude 16'55" north and 97'48" west. The town lies upon a narrow interval between the hills and the harbor. The harbor appears like a nest scooped out of the mountains, into and out of which the tide ebbs and flows through a double channel riven by an earthquake in the solid rock. I noted another opening through a sharp mountain ridge that encloses it from the sea. This opening was made by the hand of man so as to let the cool sea breeze in upon

The Cholera is contracted by taking the gorms into the system through the mouth, as in food or drink—or from the hands, clothing, dishes, etc. Thorough cooking destroys the germs.
If cholera should develop in this country, observe the following rules:
Don't eat raw, uncooked articles of any kind, not even milk.
Don't eat or drink to excess. Use plain, wholesome, digestible food, as indigestion and diarrhea favor an attack of cholera.
Don't drink unboiled water.
Don't eat or drink articles unless they have been thoroughly and recently cooked or boiled, and the more recent and the hotter they are the safer.
Don't employ utensils in eating or drinking, unless they have recently been put in boiling water, the more recent the safer.
Don't eat or handle food or drink with unwashed hands, or receive it from the unwashed hands of others.
Personal cleanliness of the living and sleeping rooms and their contents and thorough ventilation should be rigidly enforced. Foul water closets, sinks, cellars, etc., should be avoided.
Don't be frightened, but be cautious, and avoid excesses and unnecessary exposures of every kind.
The Temptation
To go out of doors in rough weather is not strong, but we are many of us, compelled to face rough weather frequently. Diseases which arise from a chill are peculiar to no season of the year. This is true; therefore there should be in the closet of every household—what Not an unmedicated stimulant, absolutely devoid of anything but an excite action, but a tonic combining, in the effective form of an invigorant and an alterative, the quality of defense against changes of weather.

Not only does it relieve the complaints which it eventually cures, it fortifies the system against the bad effects of temperature, fatality and too often shown in the deadly form of "it gripper." It produces a radical change in the weakened condition of a system peculiarly liable to be attacked by it, and it tends to provide against the dammer resulting from an impoverished condition of the blood and a disordered state of the liver or bowels.

Acapulco is about 1,600 miles from San Francisco and is the finest port of Mexico on the Pacific. It is about 190 miles south-westly from the City of Mexico; situated in latitude 16'55 north and 97'48 west. The town lies upon a narrow interval between the hills and the harbor. The harbor appears like a nest scooped out of the mountains, into and out of which the tide ebbs and flows through a double channel riven by an earthquake in the solid rock. I noted another opening through a sharp mountain ridge that encloses it from the sea. This opening was made by the hand of man so as to let the cool sea breeze in upon one of the hottest and most unhealthy places upon the American continent.
This is an old settled port, having been brought to the attention of navigators by that famed navigator, Magellan, and has been a place of considerable commercial note, but by changes in modes of traveling it has lost considerable of its former prestige. The city is hopeful, and is awaiting the coming of a railroad from the City of Mexico to awaken a revival of its lost commerce. I went ashore here, as did most of the passengers, and through the courtesy of Mr. Burton, the gentlemanly parser of the ship. I was introduced to the American Consul, and at the consulate I met one of the engineers of the proposed road from the City of Mexico to this port. He feels assured that the road will soon be constructed. Then there will be an overland route from Vera Cruz via the City of Mexico to this point. Many of the tropical fruits are raised here, such as the pineapple, banana, cocoa nuts, limes and oranges, and they were brought to the ship to sell by the natives in canoes and dugouts.
The ship took coal here and we did not get away until 4 p.m., and as we sailed out of the harbor we were well wet and cooled down by a shower which was quite refreshing and cooled the ship down nicely. The next day we steamed along finely, being in sight of the land most of the time until we came to Gulf Tobaccopeace which we crossed direct to the port of Champico. Of times the sea is quite rough in the Gulf, but this time it was fine and we enjoyed a cool breeze; arriving at Champico at 11 a.m., where we stayed until 6 p.m. At this port none of the passengers went ashore. We then steamed on with our usual speed until 5 a.m., Thursday the 25th, when we arrived at San Jose de Guatemala, which is the principal port of Guatemala. Here we found a railroad running to the city of Guatemala, a distance of about 80 miles in the interior, and one of the oldest and most prosperous towns in any of the Central American States. We had quite an amount of freight for this place and did not get away until 6 p.m. We are now in the coffee region, and in a prosperous and industrious country. Here we left about forty passengers, but took on about as many more for way ports and New York.
On the morning of the 26th, at 5 a.m., we lauded at Acajutla, in the State of Salvador, and were detained until 4:30 p.m., on account of the discharging of heavy freights. This is another of the prosperous states of Central America; coffee being its chief product. They have a railroad from here, also our next station, La Liberated, to the city of San Salvador; the capital. We arrived at La Liberated at 8 p.m., and as the ship carried nothing but rails and passengers for this point, our stop would have been short had not a heavy storm or shower come up which prevented the landing of the mails. It came on so severe that we had to go out to sea and wait until 11 p.m., when the

On the morning of the 26th, at 5 a.m., we landed at Acajuita in the State of Salvador, and were detained until 4:30 p.m., on account of the discharging of heavy freights. This is another of the prosperous states of Central America, coffee being its chief product. They have a railroad from here, also our next station, La Liberdad, to the city of San Salvador, the capital. We arrived at La Liberdad at 8 p.m., and as the ship carried nothing but rails and passengers for this point, our stop would have been short had not a heavy storm or shower come up which prevented the landing of the mails. It came on so severe that we had to go out to sea and wait until 11 p.m., when the captain put in and took them aboard and sailed for Corinto in the State of Nicaragua, where we arrived at 12:30 a.m., August 27th. This is really an attractive country, and has been repeatedly called the "gem of Central America," both on account of its productivity and splendid and varied climate, the higher ranges or table lands being similar to Southern California as far as climatic relations are concerned. This state has an area of about 49,000 square miles, and within its limits are found a population of 400,000 souls, of which nearly nine-tenths are natives, the balance white from all parts of the world, but mostly Spanish. This republic has a topography and climate differing in a marked degree from the other Central American States. The coast line on the Pacific is about 190 miles in length; the whole coast is marked with green rolling hills and wide spreading measles, and in the interior are found a chain or cluster of beautiful lakes, one of which is Lake Nicaragua. This is known as the "Lake of Grenada" and is the largest bony of fresh water between Lake Michigan and Lake Titicaca—its length is 110 miles, width 40 miles, and soundings show a depth of 240 feet; its water surface is about 106 feet above the sea level. This lake discharges its surplus water via the San Juan River into the Carribean Sea. The lake and river are on and in the route of the proposed canal, to which the people of the United States have had their attention called. Only a short time since Hon. Waruer Miller visited the Pacific Coast and gave several addresses to the public upon this matter.
My room mate to the port of Corinto was a Mr. Wells, who is connected with the Cincinnati Post. He is making a visit to Nicaragua in the interest of a newspaper syndicate to write up the matter in all of its various details, and from the many facts and statistics which he had with him, and also meeting and making the acquaintance of J. Edward Stubbert M.D., who is Chief Surgeon of the Nicaragua Canal Construction Company, who came absurd at Corinto, on his way to New York I have gathered much important information concerning
FROM PANAMA.
WRITES OF HIS EXPECTION THE WAY DOWN—A YOYAGE—THE CANAL.
Central America. Aug. 31, 1892.
MERIZ GAZETTE. I have just arrived on my way to Cartagena of Colombia, South America, that a slight recapitulation of observations made on the be of interest to your readover to note them down and by the first steamer bound passage for this port on the coast of the Pacific Mail Steamship from San Francisco Monday. The ship sailed with a snugger and a heavy cargo first four days of the trip really enjoyable, but soon latitude of Southern California began growing warmer, 20th and 21st it was hot, and we passed the Gulf of Caliacapluco, Mexico. This day we made and we all exe-ctive weather very fririd here, disappointed. We landed Aug. 234, at 9:50 a.m. overcast and some breeze about 1,600 miles from San Diego the fuiest port of Mexico on about 190 miles south-east of North and 97° 48' west upon a narrow interval lake and the harbor. The take a nest scooped out of tide and out of which the sea through a double chan- earthquake in the solid rock. Opening through a sharp that encloses it from the sea, was made by the hand of the cool sea breeze upon this project and I will give you a brief outline of them.
The proposed canal will extend from the pora of Britto, on the Pacific Coast to San Juan del Norte, in the Carribean Sea (Atlantic Coast), a distance of 169 45 miles, of which 26 78 miles will be wholly in excavation. The other 142,67 miles will be through Lake Nicaragua and the San Juan River. When the canal is completed it will stand at the gateway of commerce on the western continent as Suez does in the eastern. The natural growth and development of the Pacific States will furnish thousands of tons of traffic to the canal for the hundreds that now exist under the present conditions. The fruits and other products of California and the Pacific Northwest will be provided to consumers in larger quantities and with greater profit to the producer when cheap water transportation is at hand to carry them quickly to the world's markets.
The opening of this canal will practically make our coast line complete from Alaska to Maine, and trade will thereby receive an impetus that one can hardly over-estimate. I have become quite an enthusiast in the matter and will write you more concerning it and give you some matters in detail.
We left this port at 4 p.m. for Punta Arenas, in Costa Rica. The weather being cool the trip between these ports was really fine and enjoyable, and the weather both day and night is not tropical in any sense, but more like that of the coast of California. At 5 a.m., Monday the 20th, we arrived at Punta Arenas. This is a fine land-locked harbor and much business is done from this point, which has a railroad into the interior, coffee being a great product in this republic, as well as in the others. Here one can get a view of small plantations upon the hillsides, and they were of much interest. I am in formed that the coffee tree thrives beat at an elevation of about 4,000 feet, as here it gets shade and moisture which the low lands do not supply so well. The tree naturally attains a height of about twenty feet, but in the plantations they keep it pruned down, forming with its straight horizontal branches a beautiful dome-shaped mass of green. The leaves are broad and glossy green.
SCALE PARASITES.
PROF. CRAW REPORTS THE ENEMIES OF THE FRUIT PEST DOING WELL.
Alexander Craw of the State Board of Horticulture has filed his report of a tour of inspection made with Albert Koebele, under instructions from the State Board of Horticultural Commissioners, for the purpose of inquiring into the condition of the insect parasites sent over from Australia by Mr. Koebele. Several places were visited, among others the orchard of A. F. Kercheval at Los Angeles, where sufficient eggs and pupae of the orcus chalybeus, or enemy of the red scale, were found to justify the assertion that the species were established there.
The Hamilton orchard in Orange was visited, where a colony of the steel-blue ladybirds had been placed, and these were found all. There were plenty of beetles and eggs, from which small larvae were hatching and were at work upon the red scale. These ladybirds had only been on the trees sixteen days, and as they are breeding there successfully it is conclusive proof that the earlier importations had already deposited their eggs before they arrived.
On September 31rd the Elwood Cooper orchard at Santa Barbara was visited. It was at this place that several species were liberated in the open orchard immediately upon arrival. Four species were found that have become well established, viz: Orcus chalybeus, orcus Australasia, Rhizobius ventralis and a small symmetries. Of all these beetles eggs, larvae and pupae were found. The trees upon which they were placed are infested with black scale and they are feeding upon it. Mr. Cooper placed these insects in an orchard where he considered the conditions as to temperature and protection from the prevailing winds favorable for their colonization.
On September 9th Craw visited the orchard at Haywards, Alameda county, where Mr. Koebele had himself placed several species. He found beetles of the orcus Australasia and Rhizobius ventralis apparently doing well. At this place a muelin
At 5 a.m., Monday the 29th, we arrived at Punta Arenas. This is a fine land-locked harbor and much business is done from this point, which has a railroad into the interior, coffee being a great product in this republic, as well as in the others. Here one can get a view of small plantations upon the hillsides, and they were of much interest. I am formed that the coffee tree thrives best at an elevation of about 4,000 feet, as here it gets shade and moisture which the low lands do not supply so well. The tree naturally attains a height of about twenty feet, but in the plantations they keep it pruned down, forming with its straight horizontal branches a beautiful dome-shaped mass of green. The leaves are broad and glossy green. The coffee is shaped like a small bean; two of these beans are found side by side adhering to their flat surfaces, enclosed in a pulp and covered by an outside skin, forming a berry about the size of a cherry; this at first is green, but ripens to a bright red when it is gathered. By those who have visited these upland plantations I am told that it is a beautiful sight, even more so than to see the beautiful orange groves of California in bloom. The bloom of the coffee tree is snowy white and the air is highly perfumed with their fragrance.
We steamed out of this port for Panama at 11 a.m. and arrived here without further incident. On the way down we had quite an amount of rain, and at times the view of the shore was hid by clouds and mist. I go on to Colombia by first steamer and will write more from there. Yours,
S. O. Woop.

Interesting World's Fair Notes.
Conspicuous in the shoe and leather exhibit at the World's Fair will be the display made by Lynn, Mass. Lynn is the largest shoe producing center in the United States and fully seventy-five and perhaps one hundred of the shoe manufacturers of that city will furnish exhibits. They are acting in harmony in the matter.
The Wisconsin building will have a $5,000 grand staircase, the donation of the Morgan company.
The Duke of Edinburgh has announced his intention of sending for exhibition some of the almost invaluable collection of ancient musical instruments which he possesses. A part of the collection is now on exhibition at the International Music and Art Exhibition at Vienna, where it attracts much attention.
It is estimated that the thirty-five railroads which enter Chicago will expend $110,000,000 in increasing and improving their facilities and equipments for handling the World's Fair visitors and freight.
The Board of Trade and the citizens of Fargo, N. D., have undertaken to raise $30,000 to supplement the State's World's Fair appropriation of $25,000.
Batteries to the number of 150,000 will be shown in the Pennsylvania exhibit at the World's Fair. The collection is said to be the most complete and finest in the world.
On September 9th Mr. Craw visited the orchard at Haywarda, Alameda county, where Mr. Koebele had himself placed several species. He found beetles of the orcus Australasia and Rhizobius ventralis apparently doing well. At this place a muslin tent was placed over a lemon tree where the Thalpocares cocophaga, an enemy to the black scale, is being bred.
Mr. Craw placed a small colony of orcus Australasia and Rhizobius ventralis upon trees infected with perennial scale, in Alameda, and upon examination a few days ago found beetles, larvae and pupae. The young have fed upon the scale and passed through their mounds into well developed pupae, proving conclusively that they will pray on this scale.
The new Australian ladybird, Novius Koebelei, of which only three live insects were received last April, and which were bred in the office, have multiplied very rapidly, and from these many thousands have been distributed. The successful colonization of this ladybird has fully sustained Mr. Koebelei in the statement that they are even better than the vedalia cardinalis for keeping the cottony cushion scale in check. The colony of fifty which was given to John Scott at Los Angeles have done well, and from those he has distributed several thousand, and is well pleased with their work.
"From the foregoing," says Mr. Craw, "it will be seen that five new species of beneficial insects have been successfully introduced and become established in the State, and while we cannot expect much benefit from them this year, as time is required for those introduced to breed, I am confident that next spring and summer they will be abundant and colonies can be furnished to growers throughout the State."
