SQUIRRELS AND GOPHERS. How to Rid the Farm and Garden of These Pests. J. W. Mills of the State experiment station at Chino, who read such an admirable paper before the Farmers' Institute here on "Green Manuring" in April, has contributed a valuable essay on the best methods for the destruction of squirrels and gophers, which has been read at recent farmers' institutes, and which we think will be of interest to our readers. Mr. Mills' paper is as follows: There is no such thing as the extermination of any one of these pests, and the farmer will do extremely well if he keeps them all reduced to numbers that will make them comparatively harmless. They are here, and here to stay, and no amount of trapping, poisoning or infecting with contagious diseases will entirely rid a community of them, any more than the plague or any other pestilence will entirely depopulate a country of human beings. In fact, it might be safe to assert that a long-continued warfare against these individuals with disease germs would result in the germs becoming innocuous, and a few generations of the fittest that survive may become immune. So it may not be safe to bank on any particular virus to continually do the work thoroughly. The Pasteur virus is said to have little effect on gophers in practical work, due, no doubt, to the limited chances of contagion, owing to the habits of the animal. TRAPPING GOPHERS. Trapping is an endless and expensive way of fighting gophers, but it has the advantage of satisfying the injured grower by presenting the pest laid out and done for. Any trap is good that is not too conspicuous and will hold the victim when it once has held of him. If handled improperly the best trap is worse than useless. Experience has taught us that cleaning out the runway with the hand before setting the trap will in most cases frighten the gopher away. We always use a rounded garden trowel and a loop made in the end of the wire that the trap is fastened to. Always put an orange or lemon leaf over the trigger. The scent of the leaves is agreeable to the rodent and in most cases he will start to eat it on the spot. It is also a good plan to rub the hands with orange leaves before setting the trap. Of course gophers can be caught without these precautions, but you will catch more with them. POISONING GOPHERS. Mr. Gopher has a sweet tooth and by Cures Prove the merit of Hood's Sarsaparilla—positive, perfect, permanent Cures. Cures of scrofula in severest forms, like goitre, swelled neck, running sores, hip disease, sores in the eyes. Cures of Salt Rheum, with its intense itching and burning, scald head, tetter, etc. Cures of Bolls, Pimples, and all other eruptions due to impure blood. Cures of Dyspepsia and other troubles where a good stomach tonic was needed. Cures of Rheumatism, where patients were unable to work or walk for weeks. Cures of Cafarrh by expelling the impurities which cause and sustain the disease. Cures of Nervousness by properly toning and feeding the nerves upon pure blood. Cures of That-Tired Feeling by restoring strength. Send for book of cures by Hood's Sarsaparilla To C. I. Hood & Co., Proprietors, Lowell, Mass.

Two drummers who came Monday were taken yesterday and put in quarantine. A panic has prevailed in Jackson all day. Everybody has left town that could do so. The business houses have closed, and the newspapers have suspended publication and closed their offices. Jackson has a population of 10,000, and two-thirds of these have deserted the city. At 1 p.m. Mayor Wharton received the following from Dr. Hunter at Vicksburg: "I have a bad message for you. Drs. Guiteras and Purnell agree that there are several cases of genuine yellow fever at Edwards and many suspicious cases. Capt. Montgomery's condition is about the same. The Board of Health recommends that you get all the people you want to go out of the town on the trains today. The Alabama and Vicksburg road will not stop trains at any infected point and will not allow any passengers to get off their trains in the State of Mississippi. We have extra orders on train No. 2 this evening." Upon receipt of this information Mayor Wharton posted a bulletin recommending that all persons leave the city at once who desired to go at all. The city officials then issued the fol- VOICE OF THE PRIME SUGAR BEET NOTES. From th. Chino Champion Sept. This was pay week all around the neighborhood of $32,000 in paid out for beets and labor.

Wednesday was the second pay beets this season, and the sugar pany has kindly furnished us ment of the totals paid for livery of the two months of J August, as follows: Anaheim and vicinity: July.....$44,109 24 August.....55,893 73-$10 Ventura-Aug.

Mr. Gopher has a sweet tooth and by catering to his taste you can do more with him than in any other way. The cheapest, most effective and most convenient way to get rid of gophers is to always have a bottle of poisoned raisins on hand, and whenever you find an open hole drop in one or two. Carrots are very good, but are inconvenient. We tried prunes, but they are too big and rot sooner than raisins. We keep a stock of poisoned raisins in a vaseline bottle, and it is very easy to shake out a few without handling them. The Pasteur virus will be tired at the Pomona station when the active season for gophers comes around. It has been tried at Fullerton by the agent of the material, and he reported as stated above. Sometimes an old gopher will refuse to be trapped or poisoned. In such cases it is a good plan to wait for him about sundown or sunrise and shoot him. SQUIRRELS. It is an easy matter to rid a place of squirrels if neighbors will turn out and work together. Of course the outside farmer will always have the hardest row to hoe. Poisoned wheat in the latter part of winter and spring, when everything is green, and poisoned watermelon in the summer and fall, when everything is dry, will catch every one that can get any. We take watermelon rinds that have enough ripe flesh to make them sweet, and cut them in strips two inches long and one inch square on the end and put a very little strychnine on each and let the batch stand over night. Put two or three pieces in each hole, and go over the ground again in a day or two. We used about a bushel in going over a circular area of half a mile in diameter. After nearly a year they are making their appearance again. The Chino Ranch Co. put out poisoned wheat on a greater part of the ranch. About 30,000 acres were gone over thoroughly, but the squirrels are now becoming numerous again. The Pasteur virus is said to work to perfection on squirrels, and the Experiment Station has made arrangements to introduce it and give it a fair trial. It was once introduced on the Chino ranch, but without good results.

The worst fears of the medical fraternity and public have been realized, and the prevailing disease at Edwards has been pronounced yellow fever. The State Board of Health has laid a general embargo on travel except out of the State by means of an order promulgated this afternoon and addressed to all lines of transportation. Travel from infected places is absolutely barred. The bright side of the situation is that the disease is of a very mild type. The exodus from this city, which began in a small way several days ago, has attained unprecedented proportions. While the State Board advises all who can to leave the railroads they say they can handle the largest crowds. A most rigid local quarantine prevails. The following order has been promulgated to-day by the State Board of Health: VICKSBURG. (Miss.). Sept. 15. — To all citizens of the State of Mississippi, railroad officials and other transportation lines, and all newspapers: On account of yellow fever at Edwards, Miss., and reported suspicious cases at various points throughout the State, until further orders by this board, no persons will be allowed to get off trains or boats at any station or point in the State of Mississippi, and no freight, baggage, mail or express is to be handled by the railroads or other transportation companies from infected places. No trains will be allowed to stop at infected places. Any person from non-infected communities whose destination is beyond the State of Mississippi will be allowed to board trains at all places not infected with yellow fever. Train crews running to or from places that are not infected by yellow fever will be required to get off at the terminus. [Signed] "J. F. HUNTER, M.D. "W. J.

An Expert Accountant and Bookkeeper of Detroit Troubled with Hereditary Sorofula In Its Worst Form—Spends a Small Fortune Seeking to Find a Cure. From the Evening News, Detroit, Mich. James H. Wallace, the well known expert accountant and bookkeeper, of Detroit, Mich., lastly had a remarkable experience, and a reporter called at his pretty home 240 Sixth Street, to interview him regarding it. He found Mrs. Wallace in the midst of house cleaning, and after the reporter stated the object of his visit Mrs. Wallace said: "You had better see Mr. Wallace at the office of C. A. Haberkorn & Co., table manufacture on Orchard Street, and he will tell you of this experience much better than I." A visit was made to the office of the above concern where Mr. Wallace was seen. "I am," said Mr. Wallace, "yet a young man, still I have suffered untold agonies and tortures. I was born with that awful hereditary disease known as sorofula, and what I suffered cannot be well described. The first physicians that treated me said it was a constitutional blood disorder and by constant treatment and diet it might be cured. The blood purifiers and spring remedies I used only made the eruptions more aggressive and painful. In 1888 I was a fearful looking sight and was in fact repulsive. On my limbs were large ulcers which were very painful, and from which there was a continual discharge. In three years I spent over $3000 in medicine and medical services and grew worse instead of better. I tried the medical baths, and in 1898 went to Medicine Lake, Washington, but was not benefited. I then tried some proprietary medicine, but did not receive any benefit. "One day in the fall of 1895 while reading the paper I noticed an article about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, but did not give it much attention. That afternoon while moving some books I broke an ulcer on my leg und nearly fainted, the pain made me sick and I had to stop work. While sitting in the chair I again noticed the Dr. Williams' Pink Pills article in the newspaper which was laying on the floor. I read it carefully and immediately decided to give the pills a trial, as the account which I read had been of a case similar to mine. I sent the office boy over to Frank Houp's drug store for a box and took some that afternoon. I continued their use and before I had used one box I noticed an improvement. I grew better rapidly and all my friends noticed the improvement, and after taking eight boxes there was not a sore on my person. "I am covered with sears from the ulcers but since that time I have not seen a single indication of the old trouble. I continued the use of the pills long after I was cured as I wanted to get my system rid of that awful disease." "If I only had bought Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People at the start I would be thousands of dollars ahead and had five years of health and happiness instead of torture. To-day I feel like a perfect man and my doctor says I am entirely rid of my old trouble." (Signed) JAMES H.WALLACE. DETROIT,MICH.,May 7,1897. Before me a Notary Public in and for Wayne County Michigan, personally appeared James H. Wallace, who being duly sworn, deposed and said that he had read the foregoing statement and that the same was true. ROBERT E.HULL.JR. NOTARY Public. WAYNE COUNTY,MICH.

The Public Aroused During the Past Week. Rows of People Called at Paul A. Derge's Drug Store to Get Free Samples of DR. HOBBS SPARAGUS KIDNEY PILLS. hundreds Now Testing the Remedy in this Vicinity. NOW FOR RESULTS An intense interest was created in its vicinity by the announcement in week's issue, that a free package of Dr. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills would give away to any person who would ill and ask for it at Paul A. Derge's drug store. This interest was shown by the unexpectedly numerous calls made at the store. Many of the callers, who are sufferers from kidney complaints, pressed their astonishment at the offer to make no charge for the samples. The practice of medicine oprators is to require pay in advance, and let the afflicted take the chance of re. The proprietors of Dr. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills are reversing this practice, preferring to exercise the old rule of "doing to others as they would be done by." They believe, because it has been demonstrated in every instance, that if one affected with kidney troubles once these pills, they will be convinced their great merit, and get well by their use. For this reason they made arrangements with Paul A. Derge, to freely distribute as many sample boxes as could be called for, during the last seven days. Everyone who asked for a rx was given it free of charge. Some of those calling for packages, expressed themselves as follows: "The science of medicine has certainly advanced when the proprietors a remedy can stake so much upon a case and universal test of its merits." "The honest and straightforward manner in which the medicine is offered for trial gives me confidence to use I hope it will prove helpful."

He founded Lehigh University. The wife of the late Prof. Agassiz was one morning putting on her stockings and boots. A little scream attracted the professor's attention. Not having risen, he leaned forward anxiously on his elbow and inquired what was the matter. "Why, a little snake has just crawled out of my boot!" cried she. "Only one, my dear?" interrogated the professor, calmly lying down again. "There should have been three." He had put them there to keep them warm. PRETTY NAMES For Books. The following are some of the curious titles of old English books: "A Most Delectable Sweet Perfumed Noegay For God's Saints to Smell At." "Biscuit Baked In The Oven Of Charity," Carefully Conserved For the Chick. PREPARED FOR THE WORST. The Hotel Didny Burn, but if It Had He Would Have Been Fixed. "Do you believe that we are sometimes forewarned of great dangers?" asked the commercial traveler. "Did you ever have—what you call it?—premonitions? Well. I was premonished the other night. I had to put up at a junction hotel, and they sent me clear up to the top of the building into one of those rooms with a slanted ceiling. You know the kind. You pay for the room, and the roof occupies it. "There was one window. I looked out of the window, and it seemed to be at least 60 feet down to the ground. It was a wooden building, and an old one, understand? While I was looking out of the window a freight train went by, and the engine threw out a million sparks. ""Well," I says to myself, 'I can see my finish right now.' There'll be 40 trains going by on these two roads tonight, and it's a four to one shot that this hotel is going to catch fire.' I looked out again. There wasn't any fire escape, and they didn't have any rope in the room. You see, in a good many places like that they have a big coil of rope in one corner and a sign that says, "In case of fire take hold of the rope and jump." A man reads that sign and then he can't sleep all night. "Well," I looked out of the window again, and a switch engine pulled past and shot out a lot of live.cinders as big as your fist. That settled it. I went over to the bed and found it had two sheets. I took out my pencil and figured that I could tear each sheet into four strips, and allowing for the knots, each sheet would make about 24 feet of fire escape although, of course, there would be some waste where I would have to tie it to the bed. I figured that I could push the bed over to the window, fasten one end of my rope to the headboard and play out about 45 feet. I had it all fixed—some water all ready in the bowl, so as to dampen the knots and pull them hard. Of course I still had some distance to fall after I got to the end of my rope, but that was all right You know, as soon as I had my rope fixed I was going to drop the mattress, so as to have something to fall on. "I took my cardcase, watch, money and keys and tied them in a handkerchief, which I very carefully placed on the window sill, so that it would not be overlooked in the hurry of getting away. There didn't seem to be anything else that I could do until the alarm was given, so I turned in and fell asleep right away. I wasn't worrying, because I was ready, no matter what happened. I had been asleep about three minutes, it seemed to me, when somebody pounded at my door and told me to get up; that it was 7 o'clock. I got up and dressed, and you can imagine how badly I was disappointed. Oh, I was sorrel But, say, suppose the hotel had caught fire. Wouldn't that have been a star story?" —Chicago Record.

The ghost of Queen Anne Boleyn is only supposed to appear on the eve of the death of a member of the royal family, and, therefore, the matter has been made the occasion for considerable gossip. SERPENT POISON. The Venom of the Cobra Is Deadly Almost Beyond Belief. It was in the autumn of 1891 that Calmette, while acting as director of the Bacteriological institute of Saigon, Cochin China, first commenced his experiments on the neutralization of serpent venom in the animal system. He had exceptional opportunities in the matter of serpent venom wherewith to carry out his investigations, inasmuch as a band of cobras had recently attacked a village in the vicinity of Bac-Lieu, and by order of the governor of the district no fewer than 90 specimens of the terrible Naja tripudians, or cobra de capello, were forwarded to a barrel to the institute. Forty of these reptiles arrived alive, and several were at once sacrificed to secure their venom glands. Each gland, resembling both in size and shape a shelled almond, contains about 80 drops of venom, and in this transparent limpid liquid is embodied a toxine of extraordinary strength. As is well known, this cobra is the most dreaded of all serpents, and it is widely distributed over India, Burma, Sumatra, Java, Malacca and Cochin China. Until Calmette, however, set to work to systematically study the nature of this reptile's venom, but little precise or reliable information had been obtained as to its character. It was, of course, necessary in the first instance to ascertain, within as narrow a limit as possible, the exact degree of toxic power inherent in the venom, and to determine if possible, the precise dose lethal in respect of each variety of animal experimented upon. A correct calculation of the quantity of venom required in every case was, however, found to be quite impossible, for so virulent is the poison that a single drop of an emulsion produced by pounding up 8 glands in 800 grams of distilled water is sufficient, when introduced into the vein of a rabbit's ear, to kill it in five minutes. All the mammals to which Calmette administered this cobra venom, such as monkeys, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, succumbed more or less quickly, according to the size of the dose.—Longman's Magazine.

The following method is recommended for bronzing objects of copper, for example, medals: Dissolve 2 parts of verdigris (acetate of copper) and 1 part of sal ammoniac in vinegar. Boil the solution, skim it and dilute with water until it no longer possesses a feebly metallic smell nor produces a whitish precipitate on the addition of water. Then let it boil again in an earthenware or porcelain vessel and transfer it while boiling into another vessel containing the perfectly clean medals, etc., and place the whole on the fire. As soon as the medals assume the required color remove them and wash carefully in clean water. The objects must not be left too long in the acid bath over the fire, because the layer of oxide would become too thick and would easily scale off the surface, whereas, if the operation is properly conducted, the coating adheres so firmly that it cannot be separated even by scraping. Of course, it is only after a certain number of trials and with experience that the exact moment can be ascertained for removing the objects from the bath. It is very necessary that the bath be not too concentrated, as the superficial oxide becomes proportionately less adherent. Moreover, a whitish powder is deposited on the medal, which turns green on exposure to the air and spoils the appearance of the bronzing. Jewelers' Circular. How He Made a Saving. "That mine in Tuolumne county is costing me a mint of money," said a local capitalist to one of his employees. "I wish you would figure around and see if you can't make a saving somewhere. If you can, I'll raise your salary $50 a month. "But suppose I can't make a saving of $50 a month?" inquired the young man. "Well, I've tried to figure it out myself, and I can't find where I can save a cent. If you can, you are worth $50 a month more." "All right, sir. I'll look into it." The young man went over all the accounts, but he could not find where he could cut down a single expense. Finally it occurred to him that he was drawing $25 a month for acting as secretary of the mining company. "I've found a place where you can save $25 a month," he informed his employer the next day. "I've cut off that salary of $25 a month we've been paying the secretary for doing nothing."
