The Use of Fertilizers. By C. C. Chapman of the Santa Isabel Ranch. In the use of any kind of fertilizer there are so many unknown conditions prevailing, so great difference in soils and in their general treatment, and the ignorance of the construction of the fertilizer, that with me it is difficult to attend to this important work with any scientific exactitude. I presume those who will make the question a study may eventually gain such knowledge as will enable them to discern the wants of their soil, and become sufficiently posted in agricultural chemistry that they will know how to provide these requirements at the least expense and greatest degree of accuracy. But what is the ordinary rancher going to do about it? UNCERTAIN RESULTS. The growers of my section have experimented with almost every kind of fertilizer, but the results, in the way of better crops, have not been so marked and so plainly attributed to the applied articles, that many of us dare speak with any degree of certainty. We wish we could. One grower, and the only one I have talked with who has continued to use the same compounded article for so long as four years, has gathered each year a profitable crop. A neighbor adjoining, who has used nothing, has also harvested good crops. Another, who has used different kinds of fertilizers, and with no attempt at regularity, has usually gathered abundance. This, of course, is not conclusive evidence that fertilizers are not helpful, but when similar experiences are general it leaves one in great doubt as to what should be done. We have no money to spend upon that which does not at least bring an equivalent in larger or better crops, yet we are quite anxious to do that which will enhance the quality of the fruit and maintain the groves in vigor for the longest possible time. The soil in the Fullerton and Placentia districts in general abounds in the essential elements—potash, nitrogen and phosphoric acid—and is capable of sustaining a large draft upon it for a considerable time, if properly manipulated. Winter plowing, a couple of good irrigation and proper cultivation, I believe, has never failed to produce a good crop, providing always that the trees are kept free from scale and intelligently pruned. We do not consider it prudent, however, to make too great demand upon the soil without giving back some equivalent in the way of plant food. I think many of our people have tried to discover just what is most needed in the way of substantial diet, but as previously stated, only a few have found that which is satisfactory. As our groves advance in age, however, more marked results may be noticed in the application of fertilizers. compacted, however rich in plant food, will not compare in results. I thus philosophize because I believe much plant food will never be utilized until the soil is properly aerated. Cultivation is therefore an important factor in proper fertilization in soil. HOW TO APPLY. Fertilizers are variously applied by orchardists. One grower, and he has a fine, well-kept orchard I notice; scatterers barnyard or sheep manure immediately around the trunks of the trees, and extending out 5 or 6 feet. Generally, however, fertilizers are scattered broadcast between the trees and plowed under; some however drill it in. The latter, for commercial goods or ground sheep manure, is the best method in my opinion. I observe that the grove first referred to is vigorous in growing but this year has a light crop. However, the advocates of these different methods generally point to good crops as a result of their plans. One thing is certain, it either makes little or no difference with us what is used or how applied, or else the fertilizers are so all-powerful that it is only necessary to have them come in contact with the soil to have it respond. Some of our people have experimented with green crops for fertilizing, but have nothing satisfactory to report. Perhaps if they had used some of one leguminous plants recently secured from Europe, and so highly recommended by Prof. Hilgard and others, results might have been quite different. MORE INVESTIGATION DESIRABLE. I want to commend this subject to the careful investigation of the more observing and scientific of our growers, so that the work of fertilizing our citrus orchards may be reduced to a science so plain, simple and practical that any of us may comprehend it, and that the results will be such that an assurance faith in its principal may prevail. I am pleased to note that our Agricultural Department of our State University, as well as those interested in the manufacture of fertilizers, have made and are making a new study of the project, and have done much in dissertation on knowledge of the question and in educating the public. Those who give the matter candid and honest thought should be commended, and while they may be primarily promoted by selfish motives in the way of financial gain, yet if they devote any special ability they may possess in a more perfect comprehension of the question they should be regarded as public benefactor. A Fine Piece of Color Work. An experienced art critic gives it as his opinion that there will be no handsome piece of color work issued this year than Hood's Sarsaparilla Calendar for 1899. It is not only useful, but artistic and beautiful, and up to date. The charming "American Girl," whose beautiful face appears with a delicate painted flag in the background, this difficult question. No one can of course, how far the best estimate may vary from the truth, and it cannot be surprising if the figures by Wagner and Supan in 1891 then put the world's population 1,480,000,000 were fifty to a hundred millions out of the way. These statisticians, however, are able to assign good reasons for conclusions, and at least no other matures are entitled to higher creeds. In his latest textbook of geography Supan estimates the present population of the earth at fifteen hundred million or an increase of twenty millions past seven years. There is no need that population is rapidly increasing almost everywhere on the inhabited globe; and particularly within the main civilization, where labor-machinery and improved methinking the soil have vastly increased means of subsistence. Even in uncivilized parts of there is conclusive evidence that lation is increasing. The negroes of Africa are among the most prosperous human beings. A district may be divided almost all of its inhabitants, but in ten or fifteen years this stated region is as thickly populous ever. Some of the most destitute native wars in this century have waged in the region behind Lagos; the upper Guinea coast; but this strict, as large as New York State now more densely popped than other parts of Africa except Nile Valley. The Chinese have established how vast a population, agricultural, may be supported comparatively small area; and in some other dense peoples, the population has increased with perhaps peculiar rapid cause of its enjoyment of complex immunity from epidemics of disease. It is believed that the inhabitants of the Arctic or the sub-Arctic region where the struggle for existence tense, are at least holding their natives are dying out, being thieves. The aborigines of the islands of the Pacific, where natives are growing in the Loyalty group, and in Guam, Tabiti and a few other nations but among myriads of others in the Pacific there is as yet evidence that the natives may escape fate of the Tasmanians, who are extinct. While population is rapidly increasing it is scarcely keeping pace with the growing ability of mankind large the means of subsistence population of Europe at the best of the Christian era, estimated 2000,000 was only a little more half of the present population sustaining a large draft upon it for a considerable time, if properly manipulated. Winter plowing, a couple of good irrigations and proper cultivation. I believe, has never failed to produce a good crop, providing always that the trees are kept free from scale and intelligently pruned. We do not consider it prudent, however, to make too great demand upon the soil without giving back some equivalent in the way of plant food. I think many of our people have tried to discover just what is most needed in the way of substantial diet, but as previously stated, only a few have found that which is satisfactory. As our groves advance in age, however, more marked results may be noticed in the application of fertilizers. Pretty much every brand of commercial fertilizer finds users among our growers, but so far as my information goes, with one exception, of those who are not interested in some way in the sale of these goods, the users have no very decided views as to results. They are unable to say positively that one kind has given better results than another, and in many cases are not convinced that any favorable returns were obtained from their use. There may be reasons for these discouraging experiences which can be explained by those better informed. If we only knew just what to employ with that degree of certainty that we use hydrocyanic acid gas to kill scale, we should feel that the production of citrus fruits could be regulated with almost scientific accuracy. GREAT ANTICIPATIONS. I recognize one difficulty in the employment of commercial fertilizers that not infrequently prevails, and that is, the too great expectation of immediate good results to be derived from their use. The fertilizer is scattered about, and then a magical change is looked for, and a consequent inactivity in cultivation results, and in the end perhaps disappointment. We should follow the example of the good Baptist deacon who prayed most fervently for a good crop and then turned all hands out early to help the Lord answer his prayer. We should not depend upon the fertilizer, however high priced, to take the place of the whole process of crop production. AN EXPERIMENT. I have been frequently questioned as to what kind of fertilizer we use on the Santa Isabel ranch; the parties inquiry wishing to know that they might employ that which had produced such excellent results. I regret very much that I have been unable to reply to these queries in a manner that makes the answer of any practical value. Two years ago I made what I intended to be a fairly practical test of different fertilizers. I cannot say that the experiment was satisfactory in giving the information that would guide me in the future as to what to do to insure a good crop. Upon a plot of 1000 trees I put a light dressing of sheep manure. Upon the next 1000 I used commercial fertilizer. The adjoining 1000 I passed without giving anything. Upon the next plot I used lime cake. Next to this I used bone meal. Then, upon another plot I used the sheep manure, commercial fertilizer, bone meal and lime cake, and some wood ashes—a little of each. The crop came and it was in great abundance in all parts of the orchard. I am frank to say that I could not distinguish any material difference in either the quality or texture of the fruit grown upon the various plots. This was not a little disappointing, for I had looked forward to this plan of testing soil requirements and the relative value of various fertilizers to decide this most perplexing question. I supposed I would be able to tell them what the sustaining a large draft upon it for a considerable time, if properly manipulated.

WASHINGTON, D.C., Jan. 10.-The heavy field artillery which was taken to Cuba with Gen Shafter's expedition, and which has been returned to Washington arsenal, where it has been temporarily placed on platforms to command the Potomac river approach, represents the highest type of movable ordnance possessed by the United States army, and it is doubtful if it is surpassed in effectiveness and power bythe siege pieces of European powers. It was disappointing to the ordnance experts of the army, who have been indefatigable in perfecting these weapons for last five years. To them the campaign at Santiago was not a siege technically, but an assault; and it was therefore not possible to use siege artillery. The operations were so rapid and the progress ofthe firing line toward the objective city was achieved in such a short time than no opportunity was permitted to bring upthe heavy howitzer which were to be relied upon to makethe Spanish trenches speedily untenable, as well asto demolishthe fortifications. Fora siege light artillery proved wholly ineffective, just as experienced ordnance officers knew it would. El Caley was fired upon half a day by light battery, which did no real harm,andthe town was finally taken by an aggressive infantry charge. Similar conditions prevailed inthe captureof San Juan Hill,and Santiago finally capitulatedwithout being damagedby army fire.

There are many reasons why a wise woman follows this course. The chances are that an obscure physician of small practice will not diagnose troubles of this nature properly. If he does, he will insist on the obnoxious examinations and local treatment from which every sensitive, modest woman shrinks. The specialist referred to is Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief consulting physician to the Invalida' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N.Y. Thirty years ago he discovered a wonderful medicine for diseases peculiar to women; that may be used effectively in the privacy of the home, and does away with all necessity for examinations and local treatment. This medicine is known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It acts directly on the delicate and important organs concerned in wifehood and motherhood. It makes them strong, healthy and vigorous. It always inflammation, heals alkenation, soothes pain and tones and builds up the nerves. Taken during the period of prospective maternality, it banishes the usual discomforts and makes baby's coming easy and almost painless. It insures the little new-comer's health and an ample supply of nourishment. Over ninety thousand women have testified to its marvelous merits. Medicine dealers sell it.

Are many peculiar features conceived with the contest, but none, to more so than the claim that Grant, of San Diego, is the southern candidate. While I wish respect for Mr. Grant, and do not mention that as a gentleman he is represented, yet I fail to see any particular, he is entitled to altered honor of United States from California. His extremely residence in the state, his inexperience in high political positions and knowledge of the state shall militate against his candidacy. He can be but two grounds of support his candidacy at this time—his money. After he has longer in the state, and demon his fitness, California no doubt delight to do him honor. The candidate, from my point of view Robert N. Bulla, of Los Angeles if the matter were put to a would secure a great major Orange county. Senator T.

He could tell what kind of beans were devoured by Chaldeans, and he knows the date of every joke made by a circus clown. He was versed in evolution, and would instance the poor Russian as a type of despotism in the modern age of man. He could write a page of matter on the different kinds of batter used in making flinty jimrocks on the modern cooking plan. He could revel in statistics, he was well up with fistics, knew the pedigree of horses dating away back from the ark. Far and wide his tips were quoted, and his baseball stuff was noted, in political predictions he always hit the mark. He could write upon the tariff and he didn’t seem to care if he was called off to review a book, or write a poem or two; he could boll down and edit, knew the value of a credit, and could hustle with the telegraph in a style excelled by few. He could tell just how a fire should be handled and as a liar he was sure to exercise a wise discriminating taste. He was mild and yet undaunted and no matter what was wanted he was always sure to get it first, yet never was in haste; but despite his reputation as a brainy aggregation, he was known to be deficient in a manner to provoke, for no matter when you met him, he would borrow if you let him; and he seemed to have the faculty of always being broke."

Chalk as a Coal Saver. To make half a ton of coal go as 15 hundredweight place a quantity of chalk in the grates. Once heated this is practically inexhaustible from combustion and gives out great heat. Place the chalk at the back of each of your fires in nearly equal proportions with the coal. Full satisfaction will be felt both as to the cheerfulness and as to the warmth of the fire, and the saving throughout the winter will be at the rate of 25 per cent.—Exchange.

Company’s “Sunset Route” and “Sunset Limited.” A royal road and a royal train, via New Orleans to Washington, Philadelphia and New York. It is conceded by eminent travelers that the equipment and service throughout is unequalled as a thoroughly first-class caravansary on wheels. It is an elegant combination of comfort with luxurious accommodations, and the expense is no more than it would be on an ordinary first-class train. It is absolutely the most magnificent passenger train in America. Its roadbed is one of the safest. The entire line between Los Angeles and New Orleans is gravel-ballasted and outfitted with new steel rails and ties. Electric lights, steam heating, quick time, careful employees and unexcelled cuisine are some of the reasons why the “Sunset Limited” is the favored train for the class of travel that thoroughly appreciates a good thing. d22-4t Money to Loan From $5,000 to $10,000 in sums to suit, on real estate or approved security.

His young son watched operations for a time and then inquired: “Daddy, why do you put those taters in the ground?” “By so doing each one will bring me back ten, my son,” replied the father. The boy went away, and when his father came up to dinner he found him digging in the yard and asked: “Sonny, what are you seeking?” “Why, daddy, I have planted the clock, two umbrellas, the teapot, your Sunday hat, ma’s boots and a tablecloth, and each one will bring me back ten.” “You young idiot, come here and be skelped!” shouted the father, and he tanned the boy up and down, crossways and sideways, until he was tired. “Daddy planted taters to get back ten,” mused the boy as he sat down unPacific Coast Steamship Co.
