THE APRICOT IN SOUTH-ERN CALIFORNIA. From Planting to Fruiting. BY J. B. NEFF. Read before the Pomological Society, at the Covina meeting, Thursday, Nov. 17. The first requisite for a profitable apricot orchard is a suitable soil. This should be what is usually known as a sandy sediment, without hardpan; not so sandy as to dry out readily, but with sand enough to make it free from baking and easily cultivated. The soil should be at least four feet deep; though if water is plentiful the trees will do well on a shallower soil if sufficient fertilizer is used in later years. It is also necessary that the water should be plenty, and that it can be had in ample quantity at the time it is needed. A great mistake is made in supposing that the natural rainfall is wholly, or almost sufficient to produce paying crops of apricots, for this fruit needs most water at the time when its roots have taken almost all the natural supply of water from the soil. When proper soil has been secured, and water supply has been satisfactorily arranged, the next thing is to get trees that will produce good large fruit; and too much care cannot be given to this. In laying out the orchard the rows ought to be 24 feet apart each way—much labor can be saved by laying out the rows with reference to the way the water will run best, and not with reference to the points of the compass as is usually the case. The planting should be done early in January if possible, so as to have the benefit of all late rains. An excellent plan is to run a stream of water along the rows as soon as planted, as this settles the earth at once and better than can be done in any other way. Trees of four or five feet in height, with strong, healthy roots are preferable to taller trees for planting, and regulations during the second summer and a strip of twelve feet wide should be watered, as the roots are reaching further and the trees require a greater amount of water. The irrigation for the first two years should always be done before the trees show any want of water so as to keep them growing vigorously. All the space between the trees should be watered the third year and afterward, but two summer irrigations will be sufficient. The best time for the first summer irrigation of bearing apricot trees is when the fruit is about half grown, which is usually about the second or third week in May. If well watered at this time the fruit grows to its largest, and has time to ripen slowly as the ground gradually dries, until it has all the sugar which will go into the fruit. An orchard in full bearing that has been well watered in the winter, should now have as much as a full 100 inches of water for two hours on each acre. The second irrigation should be given as soon as possible after the summer pruning is done, in order to start the trees to growing and develop the fruit burs for the next year. This will not require quite so much water as the irrigation in May, but ought to be as much as 100 inches of water for one hour on each acre. The cultivation will vary with different soils, but should be thorough after each irrigation, and sufficient at other times to keep the soil loose and free from weeds. In order to make the orchard pay it must have the proper attention and at the proper time. In short, the business must be done in a business manner, and if so done the trees are almost sure to be well loaded with the finest of fruit, and to be a source of profit as well as enjoyment to the owner.

The Orange Growers and Shippers' Association is anxious to have the question of sizes clearly understood in order that prices may be set f. o. b. on "regulars" and "offs." In speaking of MONEY FOR FIRE BOYS. Insurance Commissioner Clunie Has Money on Hand Coming to Orange County Fire Companies. The following letter from Insurance Commissioner Clunie to Marshal Steadman, relative to moneys in the possession of the Commissioner appropriated to Orange County fire companies, will be found to be of interest: SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 20, 1898. N. F. Steadman, Esq., Chief Engineer Anaheim Fire Dept.—Dear Sir: In 1885 a law of this State was enacted, to be found on page 13 of the Statutes of 1885, entitled "an Act to require the payment of certain premiums to counties and cities and counties by fire insurance companies, not organized under the laws of the State of California, but doing business therein, and providing for the disposition of such premiums." Shortly after the passage of this law, for the purpose of determining its validity a test case was arranged between the city and county of San Francisco, and one of the companies affected by it. The case was tried in the Superior Court of this city and county before Judge Maguire, then one of our Superior Judges, and a decision rendered by him against the company in favor of the city sustaining the law. Subsequently an appeal from this judgment was taken to the Supreme Court of the State, and in an opinion reported in the 74 Cal., at page 113, the Supreme Court reversed the judgment of the lower court, and held the Act of 1885 to be unconstitutional, for the reason that it was an attempt by the Legislature to levy a tax for municipal purposes, contrary to Section 2, Article II, of the constitution of this State. From time of the rendition of this decision, till shortly after the commencement of my term of office, no attempt whatever was made to enforce this law. An examination of the decisions of the highest courts of this country having satisfied me of the absolute power of the legislature of this State to prescribe the conditions upon which foreign corporations should be permitted to do business in this State, and concealing compliance with the act of 1885 to be one of such conditions, and believing that this point was not in RED TO ANY PART PER POUND.

How a Shrewd Riverside Grower was Taken in by an Orange Buyer. The Orange Growers and Shippers' Association is anxious to have the question of sizes clearly understood in order that prices may be set f.o.b. b.on "regulars" and "offs." In speaking of selling oranges by the pound in an article two weeks ago, which by the way has extensively reprinted in Southern California, the point was made that no matter what plan of selling is adopted, if the packers have the power to grade for quality, and size the fruit the grower is in a measure helpless against imposition. This fact may be emphasized by an occurrence at Riverside when 216's were more in favor than they are likely to be again. In this deal one of the shrewdest growers in the State was pitted against a dealer who has the reputation of looking after his own interests with consumate skill. It was an f.o.b. b.deal and Mr. Riversider sold a carload of even quality, so much for "offs" and so much for "regulars." When the fruit was delivered and graded there was an inordinate quantity of 250's and 96's but there was nothing wrong apparently and the deal was made. When the fruit came to the packing bins most of the 250's had grown into 216's and the 96's had shrived into regulars. The shrewder dealer made $140 on that carload of fruit by manipulating the sizes. Of course a little matter like that was of small importance to Mr. Riversider, but he had not a reputation for business acumen? That reputation had to be sustained even at a loss of 50 cents a box. Names and dates with witnesses furnished on application. There were no mercenary motives on the part of f.o.b. b.dealer—he merely wished to discipline the grower for thinking himself so smart in a general way. And there are many growers who deem themselves smart enough to beat a speculator at his own game and they need to be chastised for their assumption. It will be seen by any candid man that even if f.o.b. dealing were exactly what it claims to be there is yet every inducement for the grower to control the sizing and grading of his fruit absolutely.[Pomotropic]. The Olive Industry. An interesting and valuable report on olive culture has been filed with the Governor by B.M. Lelong of the State Board of Horticulture. It discusses the present condition of the industry in this State and its outlook for the future. Olive trees reach full bearing at fifteen years of age, and will yield an average of at least fifty pounds of fruit for each tree. According to reports of County Assessors, there are 1,162,739 olive trees in the State, of which 364,810, or about one-third, are in bearing, and 797,929 have not yet reached the bearing age. Expressed in acreage, there are 7,600 acres in bearing, and 16,622 acres not yet in bearing. From these figures it appears that the annual crop of olives in this State is 18,240,500 pounds of fruit, with a prospect in near future, the lower court and county or in the event of said Treasurer or clining to receive it, then to general fund of said county or city county. "Where it is practicable to ascertain the amount of said money which would have been paid to the Treasurer of a county or city and county, of the State California, upon premiums received during the year 1897, by us under Act of the Legislature of 1888, declared by the Supreme Court of the State California, to have been unconstitutional, then such proportion of said money shall be by you be paid to the Treasurer said county or city or county," provided; that such money shall be so payed to the credit of the fire department fund of such county or city county or in the event of said Treasurer or clining to receive it, then to general fund of said county or city county." "In the event of any Treasurer of a county or city county or state county," or said refusing to accept said moneys, or burdenome or impracticable, or if your judgment the best interests these companies or of the State so acquires them you will be authorized to make payments or as much thereof as you can afford." The second year's growth should now be cut back to within fifteen to twenty inches of the old wood, except the central stem, which may be left twenty-four to thirty inches long, depending on the number of laterals it may have thrown out. When the new shoots have about six inches growth they should again be thinned down to two or three leading limbs on each branch, and all taken off that tend to turn down or out at right angles; but do not take off the fruit spurs. The tree will need to be gone over about three times before July to remove suckers and lateral growth that may start on the lower side of the limbs, as the tendency in the third year is to make an immense growth of downward laterals, and these must be taken off so as to develop wood that is to be left for fruit. If the orchard is on good land and has been properly watered and cultivated the trees should now be large enough to begin to yield fruit. The object in trimming during the first two years and the first half of the third year, has been to grow a vigorous, upright tree with strong limbs, capable of carrying a heavy load of large fruit and to get the fruit as close to the body of the tree as possible. There will be a few specimens of fruit the third year, and as soon as these are gathered the trees should be summer pruned for the first time. Care being taken that the land shall have been allowed to become moderately dry, so that the trees may be partially dormant. If the downward growth of laterals has been kept cut off, all that remains to be done is to cut off about one-half of all this season's growth all over the tree, using the same judgment as before with reference to prevailing winds and symmetry of tree. The only pruning that will be necessary the following winter will be to take out cross limbs and sprouts that may have been overlooked in the summer. If rains are copious, winter irrigation may be dispensed with during the first two or three years after planting the orchard, but when the trees reach the age for bearing fruit, the rain water should be supplemented by irrigation water until the soil is thoroughly wet five feet deep, and in order to have this, at least 20 inches of water including rainfall must be put on the land. Three irrigations should be given the trees during the first summer, but it is not necessary to water more than a strip five or six feet wide along the tree rows. The orchard should have three irri- Olive trees reach full bearing at fifteen years of age, and will yield an average of at least fifty pounds of fruit for each tree. According to reports of County Assessors, there are 1,162,739 olive trees in the State, of which 364,810, or about one-third, are in bearing, and 797,929 have not yet reached the bearing age. Expressed in acreage, there are 7,600 acres in bearing, and 16,622 acres not yet in bearing. From these figures it appears that the annual crop of olives in this State is 18,240,500 pounds of fruit, with a prospect in the near future, when the younger trees attain full growth, of increasing this output to 58,136,950 pounds. Sixty pounds of fruit will yield one gallon of oil, and if all the olives produced were utilized in this manner the output would be 304,010 gallons of oil, with a prospect of 969,000 gallons within a few years. Mr. Lelong fears that the growers will find difficulty in disposing of this largely increased output, but there is small danger of that. The use of California olives, in the form of fresh or cured fruit or of oil, is steadily growing. In those countries of Europe where olives are grown the fresh fruit forms a regular article of diet for rich and poor alike. There is no fruit that is more wholesome or more nutritious. The people of this State are coming to recognize its value in this way, and are using it more and more. In the form of oil also, the California product is gaining headway, though it comes more directly into competition with the foreign article. Last year 928,767 gallons of olive oil were imported into the United States, a large part of which was adulterated or was cottonseed oil. This country during the same year exported 27,198,882 gallons of cottonseed oil, and a great part of this undoubtedly returned and was sold in our markets under the name of pure olive oil.[Examiner] How to Prevent Crop. We have two children who are subject to attacks of croup. Whenever an attack is coming on my wife gives them Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and it always prevents the attack. It is a household necessity in this country and no matter what else we run out of, it would not do to be without Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. More of it is sold here than all other cough remedies combined.-J. M. NICKLE, of Nickle Bros., merchants, Nickleville, Pa. For sale by P. A. Derge.

Commissioner Clunie Has Hand Coming to Orange County Fire Companies. Drawing letter from Insurance Commissioner appropriated County fire companies, "will be of interest: FRANCISCO, Oct. 20, 1898. Steadman, Esq., Chief Engineer Fire Dept.—Dear Sir: Law of this State was enacted on page 13 of the Statutes titled "an Act to require the certain premiums to counties and counties by fire companies, not organized units of the State of California, in business therein, and the disposition of such pre-shortly after the passage of the purpose of determination a test case was arranged in the city and county of San and one of the companies it. The case was tried in Superior Court of this city and more Judge Maguire, then one superior Judges, and a decision by him against the company in the city sustaining the law. Only an appeal from this judgment to the Supreme Court, and in an opinion reported Cal., at page 113, the Surt reversed the judgment of court, and held the Act unconstitutional, for the reason was an attempt by the Legion levy a tax for municipal contrary to Section 2, Article I constitution of this State. Time of the rendition of this still shortly after the commencement of my term of office, no at-ever was made to enforce An examination of the decide highest courts of this country satisfied me of the absolute legislature of this State be the conditions upon which corporations should be permit-business in this State, and compliance with the act of one of such conditions, and that this point was not in- at once. While the County Treasurer is to act as custodian of the fund, it need not become, and is not funds of the county within the meaning of the term as used in the county government act, and there can be no legal objection to its distribution by the Treasurer as directed by the Board of Supervisors. Section 51 of the county government act provided as follows: The Board must receive from the United States, or other sources, lands and other property granted or donated to the county for the purpose of aiding in the erection of county buildings, roads, bridges or other specific purposes and may use the same therefore, and may provide for the sale of the same, and for the application of the proceeds. This law, in my opinion authorizes action such as I have suggested, and if the suggestion meets with your approval, I will be very much pleased if you will take the matter up with your county treasurer, and the members of the Board of Supervisors with whom you may be acquainted and see if the arrangement can be consummated. While the amount involved this year, may seem small, my agreement with the companies extends over several years, and in the aggregate will amount to enough to justify your trouble. I have written to the chief in Santa Ana and trust you will co-operate with him in carrying out the purposes of this letter. Respectfully yours, ANDREW J. CLUNIE, Insurance Commissioner.

Trustee Schwenckert of the Committee on Public Improvements reported that it was a question whether the contemplated improvements at the power house were necessary or not; this being in reference to the rebuilding of a part of the power house, so as to make it warmer in winter. He asked that the committee be granted further time, which was agreed to. Trustee Dickel of the Ordinance Committee stated that the committee thought it best to postpone action on adoption of a new tax ordinance until after the session of the next Legislature, inasmuch as there might be some legislation on the subject which could be embodied in the ordinance, and the latter would not really become necessary until next June. The report was accepted and approved. Under the head of new business Trustee Schwenckert stated that several parties in the neighborhood of the November 29 and to Continue Four Days.

A cordial invitation is extended to all fruit growers, shipkers, packers, nurserymen and others interested in horticulture and kindred pursuits, to be present and take part in the proceedings of the convention, and it is to be hoped that every branch of the industry will be well represented. There are many problems that confront orchardists that can only be solved by the combined wisdom and energy of the great body of fruit growers working in harmony. At this session among other matters of great importance to the producers that will be considered will be marketing, and increasing the consumption of California fruit products. The committee appointed by a special convention to represent the producers in connection with the free public market in San Francisco calls, as instructed, a special meeting of all interested, whether growers of fruit or of other perishable products, meet on Wednesday afternoon, November 30th, as a part of the convention, at which time a plan will be presented by said committee for a permanent organization, to be acted upon. Emlent horticulturists will present essays during the session on subjects that are deemed of the utmost importance to the fruit industry in general, and all interested should take an active part in this matter and attend the convention. Ample time and opportunity will be afforded visitors to visit orchards and vineyards, also raisin packing houses in operation. The State Association of County Horticultural Commissioners will also hold sessions during the week. The Southern Pacific company and San Joaquin Valley Railway company will issue excursion tickets to all persons going to the Convention and returning at reduced rates, from all points on the lines to Fresno, provided a receipt for the ticket purchased be taken at the starting point. This will be counted signed by the secretary and will entitle the holder to a return ticket at one-third the regular rate.

An elaborate display of fruit and fruit products will be made, also a display of raisins, showing the new grades and qualities adopted by the Raisin Growers' Association. The rooms of this association will be open to public inspection, affording growers a rare opportunity to see the methods employed in successful operation. Fusion is a Fraud. From the Santa Ana Standard The unfortunate feature of the result in this county is that while the Populist Party has satisfied me of this county's highest courts of this county's legislature of this State because the conditions upon which corporations should be permitted business in this State, and for compliance with the act of one of such conditions, and that this point was not in the decision of the Supreme Demanded of the foreign companies, doing business in that they comply therewith, in the transaction of business in this State.

these constituted suits against我在全部的条件下对这件事情进行研究，并提出相应的对策。 On motion the Committee on Public Improvements was granted full power to try the crude oil process on one block fronting the residence of Mr. Fay on Broadway. Mr. Schneider brought up the matter of closing the ditch on Center street; in front of Mr. Mickle's property. The ditch was never included in the franchise granted the Anaheim Union Water company; and has been more or less a nuisance; in that it takes up from eight to ten feet; and makes Center street very narrow at the point indicated. The Committee on Public Improvements was given power to close the ditch after interviewing the property owners in that vicinity; and securing their agreement to its closing. Mr. Schwenckert reported that Mr. Schellens objected to the city charging him $175 for cleaning the weeds from in front of his place without having sent him the proper notice. The Clerk stated that he had sent the notice to Mr. Kroeger; the former owner of this place; hence the mistake. No action was taken. Mr. Dickel at the request of Citizens' Bank of Anaheim; asked for a reduction in the rate paid for water and light by that institution; which, after discussion was withdrawn. A communication was received from P.J. Zachman requesting the board to abate a nuisance in the rear of his place; his neighbor obstructing the alley with horses; cattle; etc. The Marshal was instructed to abate the nuisance. Bills so amounted of $1534 were ordered paid and the board adjourned. BUSINESS AFFAIRS. R.G.Dun & Co.'s Monthly Review of Trade Conditions for October In Southern California. The reports from the country at large are favorable as to general trade conditions during October. The volume of business reflected by clearing house returns has been about 3 per cent larger than last year. Foreign trade continues to show larger gains in exports than imports. The prices of staples have shown steadiness. Wheat exports continue large. In iron and steel industries the demand crowds production. Import The event of any Treasurer of any city and county, or of the State so rehearsed you will be authorized to sell monies or as much thereof as may not have distributed to the states, or cities and counties, to the owner of the State of California, one then to be carried to the same fund as if it had been paid by you as fees and charges of department." New of the fact, that these payables voluntarily made, and not paid by virtue of any law whatsoever it but just, that the should be expended, as to best meet the interests of the insurance firms, providing such expenditure compatible with interests of citizens, and after consultation with underwriters, I am satisfied these ends can be accomplished by application of these funds, to the use of apparatus for the examination of fires. The companies hired have furnished me with the ultimate amount of premiums written them, in each county of the land with this data as the basis I prepared a table showing the recourse amounts of money, each county receive were the same distributor proportion to the premiums received. In this basis, I now have in my hand the sum of one hundred and eighty-one hundred dollars, as the proportion assigned to the county of Orange, out of money of 1897, and this amount I prepared to pay the County Treasurer once, provided I receive satisfactory assurance that such amount be expended for the purchase of status for the extinguishment of fires in your county. And as a satisfactorian I suggest that the Board of Advisors of Orange county act volunteer in this matter, and distribute the different fire departments cities or towns in the county iniance with their respective merits requirements. If this can be accomplished, I will forward the money treated to an excursion through the orchards, vineyards, wineries and packing houses, to be followed by a reception and banquet. An elaborate display of fruit and fruit products will be made, also a display of raisins, showing the new grades and qualities adopted by the Raisin Growers' Association. The rooms of this association will be open to public inspection, affording growers a rare opportunity to see the methods employed in successful operation. Fusion is a Fraud. From the Santa Ana Standard The unfortunate feature of the result in this county is that while the Populists stood loyalty by the Fusion ticket, Democratic voters did not. Hall received nearly 200, Beckett nearly 300 and Scott 350 more than Gage. Their opponents were Populists and three unexceptionable men. They had well-known and popular men against them, but the Standard does not hesitate to say they did not get fair treatment. Having agreed to a union ticket an unusual obligation of loyalty thereto rested upon the parties to the agreement. It may as well be admitted that fusion in Orange county has been a failure if not a fraud. However, there is this to be said, that the Populist candidates were not traded off. Democrats who had official part in the campaign toted fair and made no trades. But the scratching of all the candidates of one party to a union ticket has none the less a bad look, and in the nature of things is bound to be resented. Maj.-Gen. Wesley Merritt, U.S.A., who is in London, in an interview on the result of the elections in the United States is quoted as saying: "I am very glad the President's policy seems to have been indorsed. Although I am somewhat of a Democrat, I think it highly desirable that there should be a Congress that will ratify and carry into effect the result of the war and the peace treaty." Referring to the Marquis of Salisbury's Guildhall speech, Gen. Merritt said: "Most Americans, I believe, agree, and our English cousins insist that we should keep the Philippine islands. I don't know whether the government is cooling toward us, but all the officials I have met here, some of them being in very high place, seem enthusiastic over the friendship between the two countries. One thing is certain about the Philippine islands—we must either take them all or drop them altogether." R. G. Dun & Co.'s Monthly Review of Trade Conditions for October in Southern California. The reports from the country at large are favorable as to general trade conditions during October. The volume of business reflected by clearing house returns has been about 3 per cent. larger than last year. Foreign trade continues to show larger gains in exports than imports. The prices of staples have shown steadiness. Wheat exports continue large. In iron and steel industries the demand crowds production. Important negotiations are underway looking to the control of prices and output of steel rails. Wool holders are selling at concessions which has a tendency toward increased demand. In our district the election campaign has disturbed business but little. No rain has fallen yet, and no decided change in trade conditions can be expected until it comes. Walnuts are moving freely, ten to fifteen carloads daily. The year's citrus shipments have closed, and the interest of the horticulturist centers now in the coming orange crop. The general opinion is that the crop is not so well matured as at this time last year, and that very few districts will risk reputation by sending forward for the Thanksgiving trade. Lemons are scarce, demand good. No change in the bean market. Limas selling for 3.10 in car lots. The beet sugar factories have shut down to await the camaign of '99. The Chino factory sliced 47,302 tons, about one-half of which came from Ventura and Anaheim. The outlook for olive growers is dismal; the crop is practically a failure. The dried fruit market is unchanged. Stocks in jobbers' hands are light and holders are not disposed to meet buyers by shading prices. The demand for raisins is active for Eastern holiday trade. In our district there were seventeen failures, with liabilities of $51,000, assets $29,000. Los Angeles, Cal., Nov. 11, 1898. Brown Leghorn Hens for Sale.
