ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1898. SEEDS AND PLANTS. Annual Distribution Now Being Made by the University of California. The University of California at Berkeley has favored us with an advance copy of the University Seed Bulletin for 1898-9, prepared by E. J. Wickson, Professor of Horticultural Practice. The bulletin contains an extended list of trees and shrubs, vines, vegetables and melons, seeds of which are now ready for distribution. We quote from the bulletin as follows: The drought of 1897-8 seriously interfered with our last plant distribution. Applicants were less numerous, and many who did apply found conditions unfavorable for the growth of the material sent them. This fact was deeply regretted by many correspondents who found the offering very attractive, and for this reason we repeat this year some of the items of the last distribution in connection with material which is new. The dimensions of last year's distribution as compared with those of the previous year, are indicated by the following brief summary. A fuller account will be found in an annual report soon to be issued: | Number of applicants | 1,184 | 661 | |-----------------------|------|------| | Packages sent by mail | 1,446 | 861 | | Packages sent by express | 171 | 51 | | Plants and roots distributed | 27,329 | 5,926 | | Ounces of seed distributed | 8,923 | 3,884 | | Packets of seed distributed | 4,313 | 2,549 | | Postmices reached | 427 | 302 | | Counties reached | 52 | 51 | All the foregoing figures relate to distribution within the state of California. Distribution is not undertaken beyond state lines, except in exchange for material desired by us. The importance of the service rendered to this distribution by the outlying culture station of the University is being more clearly demonstrated each year. The seed product of the Garden of Economic Plants at Berkeley is being notably supplemented by the product of the stations at Pomona, Santa Monica, Chico and Tulare. In this, as well as in other respects, the anticipation of advantage in having local establishments representing the diverse conditions of soil and climate Sophora tetraptera grandiflora. It is a deciduous, free-flowering, small tree, with attractive and characteristic foliage. The flowers are deep golden, tubular, 2 inches long, appearing in pendulous racemes. It is one of the best of the Sophora group. Introduced to California by Dr. S. M. Curl, of New Zealand. Half-hardy, does not need much water. A fine sidewalk tree, and probably long-lived. Asia Minor Willow—This noble willow, obtained in 1895 from Thomas Meehan & Sons, Philadelphia, has now been well tested at Chico Foresty Station, and other points. It proves much the strongest-growing willow of 36 varieties. Cuttings planted in 1895, grown ten months in nursery, then transplanted to permanent place, were 32 feet high in October, 1897, with trunks of 22 inches circumference. The well known Salix alba, under similar conditions, was 12 feet high with a trunk of 8 inches in circumference. Salix Salmoni (the subject of the text) resembles alba, and is by some botanists called alba Salmoni, but its rapid growth makes it much more desirable. It should become a favorite willow in California. We send cuttings, 15 cents per package by mail. Constantinople Acacia—This is the pink-flowered acacia of travelers in Asia Minor. Flowers form in large panicles, and remain a long time in bloom. Tree grows 30 or 40 feet high, and is hardy in most parts of California. The largest trees in the state are probably those on Rancho Chico, General Bidwell's residence, from which the seeds offered were obtained. Seedlings occasionally show white instead of pink flowers. Maiten Tree of Chile — This is a small evergreen tree, small leaves, native of Chile, graceful in appearance, and having fragrant white flowers. Altogether, a charming tree for lawn or garden. Western Judas Tree—All the trees of this family are small, graceful, hardy and of singular beauty in flower or leaf. This species, until recently called C. Occidentalis, but united with Prof. Sargent with C. Texensis, is quite as desirable a lawn or garden tree as any of the other American, European or Asiatic species. Chilean Soap Tree of Chile—This is a rare and beautiful broad-leaved evergreen which, under favorable conditions, produces a heavy stem foliage. It is used in the old country for hay-flavoring: the seed also has matic quality and special uses in nary medicine. But it is rather possibilities in the green-manure that we desire its trial, and their suggested by the report of the Department of Botanical Service of Algeria Tunis, which mentions a trial on greek sown in the autumn which induced by the first of the four Marcha weight of 26 tons per square foot. The part of which was allowed to ripen prior about 1,400 pounds of seed per week. We wish to determine by our look where the plant will endure our frosts, and if so whether its growth is greater than that of legumes. Last year's trial by our respondents seemed to show it quite hardy, as it survived frost destroyed the peach and almond on adjacent ground; but it is a good whether the amount of its growth be satisfactory. This was not tried last winter because of the dry weather and we offer seed again. If the land and sow the seed in the manner as alfalfa, covering very easily. If the plant makes a proper winter growth, allow it to be for wider trial and earlier sowing autumn. Seeds, 5 cents per postpaid. Snail clover (Medicago turbillum). The availability of this plant for manuring, especially in regions abundant winter rainfall has been evidenced by a number of experiments using the last year, and we offer to again to those who desire to make use of the plant. Soak the pods rather thinly broadcast as early ground can be put into shape, as by raking or harrowing. Seed ounce parcels, ten cents each. PUMPKINS AND CORN. Red Estampes pumpkin—I from France; seed kept pure; an for four years at sub-station. A showy, and poplar variety; new formia. Very fine for cooking good bearer for stock purposes; ably better than the common variety for dry lands. Seeds 5 cents per age by mail. Prehistoric corn—Experts say nothing "prehistoric" about All the foregoing figures relate to distribution within the state of California. Distribution is not undertaken beyond state lines, except in exchange for material desired by us. The importance of the service rendered to this distribution by the outlying culture station of the University is being more clearly demonstrated each year. The seed product of the Garden of Economic Plants at Berkeley is being notably supplemented by the product of the stations at Pomona, Santa Monica, Chico and Tulare. In this, as well as in other respects, the anticipation of advantage in having local establishments representing the diverse conditions of soil and climate in different parts of California is being realized. AIMS AND METHODS OF DISTRIBUTION. To reduce as much as practicable the vast amount of correspondence which is entailed upon the station by the distribution, we desire that the following points should be carefully considered by all applicants: First—Do not apply for things not mentioned in this bulletin. We cannot usually supply things previously offered for distribution. Do not apply for common garden seeds, fruit trees, or ornamentals, which can be purchased at seed stores or nurseries. We cannot supply them. Second—Do not make a general request "for anything which will do in this locality." Apply specifically for what interests you, or may prove of value to you. Third—We require the applicant to pay a small amount for each thing received, partly to bear the cost of collection and distribution, but chiefly as a guaranty that he has not merely an idle desire for what can be had for nothing, but intends to make trial for a definite end and will report results to us. Fourth—Applications may be made for one or more kinds of seeds, but an applicant should not order more than one package of a kind. If the supply of any kind of seed becomes exhausted the money will be returned, unless a second choice is mentioned by the sender. Postal notes are requested instead of stamps, whenever practicable. Any surplus left after filling orders will, as far as possible, be returned to the senders, deducting letter postage. TREES AND SHRUBS The seedlings can be easily grown in seed boxes of sandy loam, kept warm and moist, but not wet. Cover the seed lightly and partly shade to prevent surface drying. Tagasaste seed can be handled in the same way, but it should be soaked over night in hot water before sowing. Seed in packets by mail, postpaid; 5 cents for each variety ordered. The Camphor Tree—The seed of this tree was in much request last year, and many were disappointed in results because of the dry season. We continue our offering in hopes of better conditions this year. The tree is a handsome, broad-leaved evergreen, attaining large size and noticeable by the characteristic light green of its foliage. It endures in California a temperature of 20 deg. Fahr., and is probably about as hardy as the olive. It has endured without injury temperature that has killed large trees of Eucalyptus globulus and Acacia mollisima, and thrifty trees can be found in California valleys as far north as Shasta county. It succeeds on a great variety of soils but makes its best growth on rich, retentive soil. The trees can be readily grown from seed, which should be planted in sandy loam in January or in February, according to the time when the soil becomes warm, covered about one-half inch and lings occasionally show white instead of pink flowers. Maiten Tree of Chile—This is a small evergreen tree, small leaves, native of Chile, graceful in appearance, and having fragrant white flowers. Altogether, a charming tree for lawn or garden. Western Judas Tree—All the trees of this family are small, graceful, hardy and of singular beauty in flower or leaf. This species, until recently called C. Occidentalis, but united by Prof. Sargent with C. Texensis, is quite as desirable a lawn or garden tree an any of the other American, European or Asiatic species. Chilean Soap Tree of Chile—This is a rare and beautiful broad-leaved evergreen, belonging to the laurel family. It is an attractive and fast-growing lawn tree, fruiting when 15 feet or so in height, and probably not becoming more than 30 feet high. The fragrance of the leaves, though peculiar, is to most persons very attractive. The large nuts contain starch and saponin in such quantities that if the tree were common it would possibly have a distinct commercial value. The seeds are from a tree grown at Niles from Chilean seeds obtained of G. P. Rixford of San Francisco. They seem to sprout as easily as a Buckeye. Five seeds in each package. RESISTANT APPLE ROOTS. Australian horticulturists are entitled to credit for demonstrating that the woolly aphis can be circumvented by propagating trees upon roots which are proof against injury by this insect. In their nursery practice they select such roots, and manifest surprise that Americans are still looking for insecticides when the pest can be avoided. The roots of several varieties have shown degrees of resistance in Australia, and from these selection has been made. The root of the Northern Spy is, on the whole, the best, but it has been shown that the roots of seedlings grown from Northern Spy seed vary somewhat in degree of resistance. In order to promote local trial in this State, we offer for distribution pieces of roots of trees imported from Australia and represented to be their best selected Northern Spy stock. These pieces are intended for use in root-grafting by those who apply for them, and to be planted as “mother trees” to furnish subsequent supplies of roots for larger propagation. Root-grafts are made by using scions about six inches in length of wood of the last year's growth. The tonguegraft is usually the best for this purpose. To secure a resistant tree a Northern Spy scion should be used, for then if roots start out from the bottom of the scion they will be resistant. Some other variety can afterwards be budded into the growth from the scion a little above the surface of the ground, and then with no danger of rooting from this variety the tree remains resistant. The roots we send have a square cut at the top of the root-piece, and at this end, of course, the scion should be inserted. Wax is not necessary in root-grafting if a good fit is made and the root graft is not allowed to dry out. The grafts should be made as soon as the root-pieces are received, and kept in moist sand until the ground is in good condition for planting out ordinary fruit trees. It is possible that many of the pieces we send can be used as root-cuttings, if one knows how to handle them, but the root-graft is much more likely to red variety is perhaps suitable stock purposes. We can funnely sort if desired at 10 cents per packe by mail, postpaid. ROSELE—A tender plant, prickly regions, a juicy pod, with a delicious jelly. All the foregoing figures relate to distribution within the state of California. Distribution is not undertaken beyond state lines, except in exchange for material desired by us. The importance of the service rendered to this distribution by the outlying culture station of the University is being more clearly demonstrated each year.

I run aragon that will call for and deliver our laundry three times a week. jy 14 handsome, broad-leaved evergreen, attaining large size and noticeable by the characteristic light green of its foliage. It endures in California a temperature of 20 deg. Fahr., and is probably about as hardy as the olive. It has endured without injury temperature that has killed large trees of Eucalyptus globulus and Acacia mollissima, and thrifty trees can be found in California valleys as far north as Shasta county. It succeeds on a great variety of soils but makes its best growth on rich, retentive soil. The trees can be readily grown from seed, which should be planted in sandy loam in January or in February, according to the time when the soil becomes warm, covered about one-half inch and kept moist but not wet. Growth in seed-boxes protected from cold winds and with partial shade until the plants are in full leaf is to be commended. From the boxes transplant into nursery rows early in the fall, retaining the earth about the roots as much as possible and using water if the soil is dry. The trees endure transplanting even when of considerable size by the treatment usually accorded olive or orange trees. Arizona Ash—This is the Fraxinus velutina of Torrey, but the name given is preferred by Professor Sargent. It is found in parts of Texas, Arizona, Nevada and Northern Mexico, varying considerably in size and appearance, but it is everywhere a drought-resistant ash of great value and worth extensive planting. The seed offered was grown at the Santa Monica Forestry Station. European Linden—This seed was gathered from a fine large tree near General Bidwell's residence, Rancho Chico, Butte county. It is the small-leaved European Linden, called Ulmifolia by some authorities, the most graceful of the three European species, and it has shown itself entirely adapted to the greater part of California. It should prove a fine tree for avenues and roadsides. American Basswood—The range of this species seems much less in California than that of European species, as it is not tolerant of alkali, and grows badly in regions subject to steady strong winds. It is a beautiful and useful tree in the Bay region, and in many parts of the Coast Range, as well as the Sierra foothills, but it is not adapted to the San Joaquin. European Sycamore—Recommended for hot, dry lacalities, also for alkali soils. Of very rapid growth at Tulare sub-station. A fine avenue tree. Furnishes useful timber for cabinet work. Edwardsia—This is a very beautiful New Zealand tree, often classified as SELECTED RESISTANT VINES. Of the few varieties which have thus demonstrated particular excellence for resistant-root purposes in France we have obtained stock of three varieties which promise best under California conditions, viz.: 1. For dry, light solls—that is, soils likely to become somewhat dry in summer—the Rupestris St. George. 2. For deep, moist, heavier, and tolerably rich soils, Riparia Gloire de Montpellier and Grande Glabre. 3. For heavy, low lands, even if slightly alkaline, hybrid Solonis. The discussion of these varieties in detail, and their use as resistants, is published in a University Bulletin which will be sent to all who desire it. It must be understood that these vines do not bear edible grapes; they are merely intended for roots on which to graft the desirable table and wine varieties. We send rooted vines and advise that they be not introduced in any locality where the phylloxera is not now known to exist. The vines are grown on land free from the insect and will be disinfected before the distribution, but we do not advise the risk of introduction in localities now free. We will send about 15 rooted vines to each applicant who will send with his application 25 cents to pay for packing, and the vines will be sent by freight or express, the charges to be paid by the applicant. PLANTS FOR GREEN MANURING. We are still pursuing our effort to secure a leguminous plant which will prove satisfactory for green manuring in California. Plants previously introduced have been reported upon in our earlier publications. None are altogether satisfactory in deep rooting and free winter growth, and others are being tried. The European blue lupin is under trial this year, and if satisfactory will be offered for trial next year. Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum gracum)—This is an old plant of the Mediterranean region. It is of the clover tribe: Gazette. OCTOBER 15, 1898. NUMBER 8 UP IN BEDROCK CANYON. How the Water is Divided by the Division Gate. A Majestic Stream of Water Flowing over the Wier With the Velocity of a Millrace—Substantial Cement Work Being Put in by the Water Company at the Headgate—Bixby Overshoot a Fine Piece of Work—While the Works are in Good Condition, Much Improvement Yet Remains to be Done—Gathering Water Cress—A Breakdown while Crossing the River. A party of gentlemen consisting of Directors Fay and Rea of the water board; C. E. Groat, who has just completed an extensive job of cementing at the upper ditch; Herman Dickel, Judge Shanley and a representative of the Gazette drove to Bedrock canyon on Thursday upon the invitation of Mr. Groat, going up on the Peralta side of the river, for the purpose of inspecting the new cement work just put in. The start was made shortly after 8 o'clock, the route laying east to Olive, over the river with not a drop of water running under the bridge; past the thriving settlement of that name, with its two-story school house situated upon the hilltop and commanding a view of the entire valley, and by the ranches of Louie Passmore, Jonathan Watson, John Bush and L. W. Kirby, along the road from Olive to Peralta. Mr. Kirby's orange grove looks exceedingly handsome in its garment of green, the trees jeweled plentifully with golden globes of oranges. Mr. Passmore's place shows excellent results in raising orange trees. Mr. Watson has just erected a new residence, a handsome two-story structure. A singular fatality pursued him in his old residence. One season he placed cabbages under the house to keep through the winter. The germs of the decayed parts of the vegetation brought on diphtheria, and Mr. Watson lost, one after another, at intervals of some weeks, his wife and six children. 440 feet of the head ditch to a point joining the present strip of some 2000 feet of ditch already cemented by Gray Bros. & Ward. The job is found to have been thoroughly done, and a fine stream of some 3000 inches of water moves along in the ditch. The members of the party are loud in their expressions of praise of Mr. Groat's work, and he takes the words of praise modestly, saying he would rather lose money on a job and have the satisfaction of knowing that his employers were pleased with it, than to make a plenty of money and have his employers dissatisfied. Messrs. Fay and Rea look over the ditch and the headgate with a critical eye. The headgate will soon have to give way to a cement structure. It has outlived its day of usefulness. It has given a good account of itself in the years that it has stood guard over the waters running into the ditch, to be conducted into the valley far below, but its course has been about run. Soon a cement headgate will take its place. The river at the side of the headgate is two feet lower than the ditch, and after the cemented stretch is passed, there is no doubt considerable waste by seepage. There is also much waste by seepage in Horseshoe Bend, where the ditch describes a horseshoe in skirting along the hills at the edge of the railroad track. This ditch will probably be one of these days cemented. We retrace our steps to the camp, threading our way through the thicket so as to elude the caballo previously referred to. For it is nigh-unto lunch time, and Contractor Groat has brought along with him a tempting lunch. We do the tight-rope performance upon the strip of plank leading over the waters at the division gate again, and reaching camp are soon discussing a fine repast. After lunch cigars are lighted, and after a social chat, in which various matters are brought out in discussion, the horses are hitched up and the homeward journey begun. While crossing the river on the homeward trip, one of the timid ones says: "If the wagon mires down in the quicksand, the first thing you do, take off your shoes and stockings, and then peel off and jump for your lives. I was out with Kellogg once, and we struck quicksand and down we..." For the last year, and we offer the seed to train to those who desire to make trial the plant. Soak the pods and sow either thinly broadcast as early as theound can be put into shape, and cover raking or harrowing. Seed in 12-ounce parcels, ten cents each, by mail. PUMPKINS AND CORN. Red Estampes pumpkin—Imported from France; seed kept pure, and tested for four years at sub-station. A large, lowy, and poplar variety; new to California. Very fine for cooking, and a good bearer for stock purposes. Probably better than the common varieties of dry lands. Seeds 5 cents per package by mail. Prehistoric corn—Experts say there nothing "prehistoric" about it, but is a very hardy and strong-growing cross-bred variety. Very tall and prolific of ears. Should be tried for ordinary purposes, and for ensilage. Ears dark red, kernels long and hard: a flint variety. Seed, 5 cents per package, by mail. PERSIAN MELONS. A collection of ten varieties secured from Russian Turkestan by an agent of the Department of Agriculture, and grown at the sub-station near Pomona. All are melons from the native home of the finest known varieties, in the famous oases along the historic Oxus, the ancient Chorasmia and Sogdiana. These melons were planted May 17th upon sandy loan, receiving no irrigation and no fertilizer. The season was very dry and hot, but all the varieties proved four times as prolific as the common garden varieties of muskelen planted under similar conditions. No. 114—From Khiva. Large (8x12 inches), yellow in color with black stripes. Elliptical in shape. No. 115—From Old Amu Darya. Small (5x8 inches), clear, yellow and smooth. Conical. No. 116—From New Bokhara. Large, smooth and yellow. Conical. No. 117—From Old Amu Darya. Medium size, yellow, with irregular black markings and indentations. Soundish elliptical. No. 118—From Old Bokhara. Below medium to small, yellow in color, with rough irregular seams. Elliptical. No. 119—From New Bokhara. Size x10 inches, yellow, with irregular seams. Elliptical. No. 120—From Old Bokhara. Size x7 inches. Color and form as in 118 and 119. No. 121—From Old Amu Darya. Small, yellow and egg-shaped. No. 122—From Old Amu Darya. Small, yellow. Egg-shaped to round. No. 123—From Old Amu Darya. Large (16x4 inches), greenish-brown and smoothed. A peculiar melon. When cut for seeds early in November, these melons were hardly good. They belong to the class of late-keeping or winter muskelons so much prized in Persia, Turkestan and other parts of central Asia. They can be grown in most parts of California, and may probably be kept till New Year or water; certainly a useful quality. Seed, cents for each variety ordered, by mail. FOR FIELD AND GARDEN. Canaigle—The plant which is attracting so much attention as a source of tannin. Seed 5 cts. per package, or roots 25 cts. per package, postpaid. Jerusalem Artichokes—We have two varieties, White French and Red Brazilian. The former is highly esteemed by some as a table vegetable, either boiled or used in soups or salads. The seed variety is perhaps superior for stock purposes. We can furnish both sorts if desired at 10 cents per package, by mail, postpaid. Roselle—a tender plant, producing in dry regions, a juicy pod, which makes a delicious jelly. Full description in... FOR FIELD AND GARDEN.

Half-pound packages by mail, 10 cents. Big Hiller Lentil—From the Volga region of Russia. Very large lentil, vigorous grower. Seed 5 cents per packet, by mail, postpaid. Red-flowered Passion Vine—This is a magnificent red-flowered passion vine, a native of Peru and Ecuador, and well worth cultivation. Under favorable conditions it will climb to the top of a building or a tall tree. It is perfectly at home in Southern California, and is occasionally seen around the bay of San Francisco. Although less hardy than the common passiflora, it is worth a trial wherever pelargonium endure the winter. Application for seeds and plants should be made as soon as this announcement is received. We are unable to continue distribution throughout the year. Address. E.J.Wickson, Agr.Experiment Station,Berkeley,Cal. Bedrock canyon lies eighteen miles to the north of this city. Here is where the waters of the river are divided in equal parts between the Anaheim water company and the Orange and Santa Ana canals. The river sweeps around a bend to the southward, and turns and flows in the channel northwesterly. At this season of the year the stream is perhaps fifty feet wide. The current is narrowed down to some twenty-two feet, and a wier placed across the stream for purposes of measurement. The division gate, made of wood, is so placed that half the stream is diverted into the Orange side of the river, the other half flowing into the Anaheim side. The water, with momentum partly slackened because of the wier, plunges into the division gate with the onward rush and roar of a cataract. The water is found to be flowing 18 inches over the wier, the division gate being 9 feet and 11 inches on each side. A very fine body of water is flowing over the wier, estimated at between 7000 and 8000 inches. August 26th last, when Mr.Fay placed a nail in the side of the division gate to mark the height of the water, measurements showed that 8½ inches of water flowed over the wier. At present there are 18 inches, a rise in the four months of 9½ inches. After flowing through the division gate the water for the Anaheim canal flows toward the north side of the bed, and a quarter of a mile further on, skirting along the base of the hills whereon the Santa Fe track leads over to Riverside, the head gate of the works is come upon. We tread our way lightly over the plank crossing at the division box, intuitively reflecting that, while we are no rope walker or fancy wire dancer, yet a slip would mean an involuntary bath in the seething waters that flow along. Beyond the division gate a fine stretch of white sand, dredged from the river, divides the two streams. Further along there is a dense growth of willows, tules and underbrush. We thread our way through this forest of saplings, on our way to the head gate, when suddenly we come upon the carcass of a solitary horse, which in its lifetime was the property of Frank Gates, but which yielded up the ghost in this inhospitable place. Yes, the carcass is awfully odoriferous—worse than that. The carrion birds have eaten the face away, but their precious stomachs seem to have turned quite against them when it came to the torso. From the division gate west Mr.Groat has just completed cementing having no kodak, it is impossible to give a representation of the lunch party, which cast formality to the wind, and went in for an old-fashioned attack upon a delicious luncheon. And that's how we went up to Bedrock canyon. Santa Fe Route—Daily Overland Express. This train runs every day in the year and is equipped to accommodate passengers traveling on all classes of tickets. It carries Pullman Palace Sleeping cars through Los Angeles to Chicago and also Pullman Tourist Sleeping cars. In addition to these it carries a reclining chair car, no extra charge being made for the seats. Tourist Sleeping Cars—These cars are built on the same plan as the Palace cars and in the day the beds become comfortable seats. A porter is in charge of each car to attend to the wants of passengers. Clean linen and bedding, and proper lavatory and toilet accommodations are provided, and in the season when fires are necessary to warm the cars provision is made for passengers to make coffee on the car, although the great majority take advantage of the Lunch Counter and Dining Room Service. The cars are upholstered with rattan instead of plush as in the Palace cars. Leave Anaheim 7:55 a.m., Mon.Tues.Wed.Thrs.Fri.Sat.Sun. Leave Anaheim 9:46 a.m., Mon.Tues.Wed.Thrs.Fri.Sat.Sun.
