HORTICULTURAL TOPICS. Many of Them Discussed by the Farmers' Club at its Meeting on Monday—Walnut and Tomato Diseases, and Black Scale, and Their Remedies. The Farmers' club met at the residence of W. W. Scott on Monday afternoon. The following questions were taken from the question box: (1.) Why do Burbank plums crack open just before getting ripe? The member submitting this question stated that his plums were cracking this year, but did not last year, and he had never heard of it before. Mr. Rea seemed to be the only one present who knew what Burbank plums were. He said they were a blue plum, and he had noticed the flesh would occasionally crack open, yet he did not undertake to say he knew the cause of it. Mr. Rea and Mr. Hunter were appointed a committee to investigate the subject, secure all the information possible, and report at the next meeting. (2.) When should one fumigate to obtain the best results on black scale? Mr. Korn was considered by the members present as an authority upon the destruction of black scale, and in his absence, Miss Marie Horstman stated for him that he usually fumigated in September or October. Mr. Rea said it was not practicable to fumigate at the same time every year, as the scale does not hatch at the same time every season. They are hatching now, but are not all out. Mr. Hunter observed that one should time his fumigation so as to be able to get water for irrigation within a reasonable time afterward. Mr. Fay said that last year he had killed considerable unhatched black scale along with those hatched out; he gave them an extra strong fumigation, and an investigation after the work revealed that all the scale were destroyed. He fumigated in August. Mr. Rogers thought that the time of fumigation should be timed so as not to affect the fruit. It should therefore be done as early as possible. He suggested that it would not be a bad idea to encourage early hatching of the scale. Mr. Rogers seemed to be in a facetious mood all afternoon. The consensus of opinion was that the orchardist should keep a watch for SUGAR BEETS. A Good Crop for Farmers of Small Ranches. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Referring to Mr. Gus Hansen's estimate of the cost of growing sugar beets, in your issue of July 27th, and the writer's estimate of the 13th, I think we are close enough together to be satisfied (at least I am) to take his figures; knowing at the same time that most of the farmers do it at a less figure. He estimates the cost of labor to cultivate an acre producing eight tons at $20.85; freight, $4; seed, 20 pounds per acre, $2.40; interest on land and extra wear and tear, $4.80; total, $32.05. In 1897, as I will show below, the average price paid for beets at Chino was $4.57: Eight tons at $4.57.....$36.56 Deduct Mr. Hansen's cost.....$2.05 Profit.....$4.51 In 1897 nine per cent of the acreage planted was replanted. Farmers very seldom get additional seed for replanting. Fifteen pounds is the amount they take and are supposed to plant per acre, but the most of them plant only twelve or even less; and if they must replant some of their land have seed enough to do it. If they do not replant they return their surplus seed. Farmers living near a factory have no freight to pay. (Only those unfortunate enough to be so far from the factory who cannot deliver by team pay freight.) In that case the $4 for freight is saved. According to Mr. Hansen's estimate of cost it seems to me that land producing eight tons per acre will net the farmer about as follows if he is near the factory: Interest on land and extra wear and tear.....$4.80 Freight not paid.....$4.00 Overestimate for seed.....$0.00 Net profit.....$4.51 Return for one acre over labor.....$13.91 As the farmers of small ranches generally perform the most of their own labor, it is safe to say that they will have returned to them $10 of the cost of labor. This will give them about $24 per acre. If they must pay freight of $4 they will even then have $20 per acre as their net return if they get eight tons per acre. But every man should aim for ten to fifteen or even twenty tons per acre. By careful selection of land and skillful farming this can be accomplished when our rains are normal.

He suggested that it would not be a bad idea to encourage early hatching of the scale. Mr. Rogers seemed to be in a facetious mood all afternoon. The consensus of opinion was that the orchardist should keep a watch for the scale, and when it appears to go after it with fumigation. The Secretary read a letter from Secretary Goodwin of the Southern California Pomological society, accepting the invitation of the club to hold its Fall meeting at Anaheim. The letter was ordered to the file, and the Secretary instructed to notify the Pomological Secretary of the pleasure of the club at the acceptance of its invitation. The meeting will be held in November. The chair called up the matter of the disease now affecting the walnuts. The nuts seem to decay and fall off the trees. No one seems to know the origin of the disease, whether it be due to fungus or not; but over in the Santa Ana country he understood it was very bad and spreading. Mr. Rea thought it would be a good idea for each member of the club to constitute himself a committee of one to look into the subject and come prepared to make a report at the next meeting. He was over at Santa Ana some weeks ago, and went out into an orchard. He did not see a nut in the entire orchard but was infected with the disease. The owner of the orchard said that he and Prof. Pierce had been working upon the disease for three or four years, but had not arrived at any solution. The trees and nuts in the orchard are all affected. Mrs. Scott said a disease seemed to be affecting her tomato plants. The Secretary directed the club's attention to a recent paper upon the subject issued by Prof. Mills of the Pomona experiment station, explaining the nature of the disease, and the remedy. (The paper will be found printed upon the first page.) Mr. Hunter said that he had discovered some of his walnut trees oozing black juice through cracks in the bark. He put his knife through the bark and let the black juice out, and the tree healed up. Two years ago he noticed trees with black spots upon their surfaces. He cut the pieces out and scraped the black surface, and the trees now look well. He noticed a number of trees the same way this year. He could not say whether the trouble was caused by animal life or by sour sap. The question went over to be called up for further discussion at the next meeting of the club. The club discussed the matter of the forthcoming Farmers' Institute to be held in this city next month. G. A. Hunter was appointed chairman of the committee to solicit contributions for the defraying of the expenses of the meetings. The last Farmers' Institute held here was the father of the Farmers' Club, and the Farmers' Club is the father of the cannery now operating here. That ought to be sufficient recommendation for liberal subscriptions on the part of our business men for the second assembly of the Institute. Mr. Hunter will shortly call around among our people with that object in view. The President of the club (Mr. Farl) is ex officio a member of Return for one acre over labor...$13.91 As the farmers of small ranches generally perform the most of their own labor, it is safe to say that they will have returned to them $10 of the cost of labor. This will give them about $24 per acre. If they must pay freight of $4 they will even then have $20 per acre as their net return if they get eight tons per acre. But every man should aim for ten to fifteen or even twenty tons per acre. By careful selection of land and skillful farming this can be accomplished when our rains are normal. Small tillages with a careful saving and use of manure is the safe way for profit in beet growing. My only object in continuing the controversy is to show some of our citizens who jump at conclusions without investigation, and deyear an industry unjustly, that growing of sugar beets is an industry that every business man as well as farmer of Orange county should have more than a passive interest in. Many of our Orange county ranchers own 20 to 40 acres. They have no water facilities; cannot grow fruit trees or alfalfa. With such people one-fourth or one-third of their land to beets each year I think a very helpful crop. There is more work on a beet crop than for corn or barley, and the money return much greater, thus giving them an opportunity to utilize their labor. True, as in every other calling I know of, some have not succeeded. When every editor or every merchant makes a financial success of his endeavors, then we will expect every beet grower to do the same; not till then. Some farmers have been dissatisfied because the Chino Valley Beet Sugar company has not paid a straight price of $4 per ton. Below is the exact price paid by Chino in the year to which Mr. Hansen takes such grave exceptions, 1897. The figures are taken from the records of the farmers' bookkeeper: | Months | Gross tons | Net tons | Average rate paid per ton | Gross amount paid at Chino | | :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | | July | 9,224.56 | 8,791.01 | $4.83 | $42,655.32 | | Aug | 10,955.08 | 10,416.33 | $4.83 | $42,670.82 | | Sept | 4,583.06 | 4,358.14 | $4.83 | $19,105.88 | | Oct | 990.30 | 922.24 | $4.83 | $3,682.81 | | Nov | 1,473.06 | 1,326.06 | $4.83 | $5,169.09 | | Dec | 1,870.08 | 1,439.77 | $4.83 | $5,715.44 | Freight paid by beet growers...$14,407.57 Farmers' check, employees...2,881.51 $17,289.08 There was paid $107,349 99 net to the farmers who delivered beets at the three dumps at Anaheim, Benedict and Buena Park, which was $3 92 per ton, after freight and dump expenses were paid. Many car loads of beets were delivered at other stations, not included in the above table. Mr. Hansen is mistaken in thinking that the Chino Valley Beet Sugar company ever paid $4 00 per ton as the base price for 12 per cent beets. Their first price in 1891 was $3 50 for 12 per cent, and 25 cents advance on each per cent of sugar over 12. I think it was in 1893 that advanced the price of each per cent over 12 to 40 cents; reduced it in 1896 to $3 25 cents and 25 cents, and advanced it in 1897 to the old price of $3 50 and 25 cents.

Yellow Folks' Party. Misses May and Irene Cargill and Margaret和 Grace Wilson entertained their friends at a garden party at the lightfall The club discussed the matter of the forthcoming Farmers' Institute to be held in this city next month. G. A. Hunter was appointed chairman of the committee to solicit contributions for the defraying of the expenses of the meetings. The last Farmers' Institute held here was the father of the Farmers' Club, and the Farmers' Club is the father of the cannery now operating here. That ought to be sufficient recommendation for liberal subscriptions on the part of our business men for the second assembling of the Institute. Mr. Hunter will shortly call around among our people with that object in view. The President of the club (Mr. Fay) is ex-officio a member of the committee, and will assist in the good work. About $25 will have to be raised. Mrs. Scott served refreshments of cake, ice cream and peaches, and the club entered into an informal talk of various subjects engaging its attention. Later the members followed the custom of looking over the orchard, and noting Mr. Scott's mode of farming. Mr. Scott was unavoidably absent at Puente, where he was building a house; but it could be seen that he has made a transformation scene at his home since he settled on ten acres of wild land some seven years ago. He has a hand-some orchard of peach, apricot and lemon trees, and his mulberry trees seemed to be objects of especial interest to all. The club looked over the place—the tomato vines, lemon curing establishment, rabbitry and the trees in the orchard—and pronounced Mr. Scott a first-class farmer. The members walked over to inspect the West rotary engine pumping water for the berry growers east of town. They found a stream of some 40 inches being pumped from a well about a mile east of town out Santa Ana street. Here an earthen reservoir had been thrown up, and Mr. Herper, one of the berry growers, who was busy bringing wood to the engine in a light buggy, was highly elated over the success of the pumping operations. On the return of the members to the household, it was voted to hold the next meeting at the residence of Mrs. Strodthoff.

The following trial jurors have been drawn to serve for the coming term: J. E. Bacon, Geo. W. Stephens, F. Buther, B. B. Hadley, Cary R Smith, S. T. Rutherford, H. A Pea-body, E. P. Bingham, B.S.

The Supervisors propose to put $80,000 in the Courthouse, and the remaining $20,000 in furnishing the building. The Supervisors have called a special election to vote bonds on Sept 5th. Water in the river is keeping up splendidly, and no one within the irrigable area is suffering in the least. On the contrary, trees are looking better than last year, and water is certainly more plentiful. But compare our state with that of the boastful town of Redlands, where one day recently an orchardist paid $600 for 100 inches of water for 24 hours! Here that same amount of water would cost just $19 20. During this month hundreds of heads of water have been run at this rate. It is not too much to say that we have the best irrigation system in this valley in Southern California, and judging by the manner in which the county is filling up with a desirable class of settlers, the throngs of homesekers now pouring into Los Angeles are gradually finding it out. At Redlands water for irrigation (when it can be had at all) costs thirty times the price of water at Anaheim. Further comment is unnecessary. The berry patches belonging to John and Philip Berg, Wm. Herper George Boyd is shipping out a carload of dried fruit per day, the bulk of it going to Eastern points.

The Anaheim Cannery club gave initial ball last Saturday evening at Del Campo, and it was quite succely. The spacious hall was neatly decorated with palms, ivy and flowers, in the doorway two guides were in the shape of Japanese lanterns. The end of the hall were the large towers "A. C.

The club members are delighted with the success of their initial party, contemplate giving another dance near future. Big Price for Fruit. The Deciduous Fruit association of Anaheim has sold half of its crop of apricots at a price which nets the lower $34 per ton for green fruit. One has already gone forward, and another is being boxed by George Boyd. ardist paid $600 for 100 inches of water for 24 hours! Here that same amount of water would cost just $19 20. During this month hundreds of heads of water have been run at this rate. It is not too much to say that we have the best irrigation system in this valley in Southern California, and judging by the manner in which the county is filling up with a desirable class of settlers, the throads of homeseekers now pouring into Los Angeles are gradually finding it out. At Redlands water for irrigation (when it can be had at all) costs thirty times the price of water at Anahelm. Further comment is unnecessary. —The berry patches belonging to John and Philip Berg, Wm. Herper and Fischer situated a half mile east of town, out Santa Ana street, are being watered by the aid of the West rotary engine, which on Saturday pulled in from Garden Grove. On Monday it pumped a stream of about 40 inches of water from a well situated about a mile east of the intersection of Santa Ana and East streets. This land is outside the water district, and has otherwise no means of irrigation. The water in the well is 60 feet from the surface. Mr. West has been pumping water from numerous wells in the Garden Grove country, and charges $5 per day for the use of the engine. Quite a little stream ran in the ditch a half mile long to the berry patches, from which two crops of berries have been gathered this year, and another is looked for. It was said that the four property owners had purchased the engine from Mr. West for $400. —Sheriff Lacy was called to the Mills place near Garden Grove on Thursday morning to investigate a hole in the ground. Thursday morning the Mills brothers, George and Frank, discovered a quantity of loose dirt near one corner of the granary, and on investigating, tracks were found leading from the place through a field to a fence, where a horse and buggy had hitched the night before. The tracks showed the parties had come from Westminster and had returned the same way. Sheriff Lacy went out to the ranch and began removing the soft earth that had been piled up. A hole was found five feet in length and three feet in width, and the Sheriff momentarily expected to strike a corpse at the bottom, but after getting down about six feet they struck a bed of quicksand and were unable to go further. It is thought the diggers had consulted a clairvoyant in regard to buried treasure, old man Mills having been reputed to have buried a quantity of coin about his place previous to his death some years ago, and that what at first looked like a grave was only the result of digging after the coin. Whether the diggers found the coin or not is not known. Senator Jones informs us that there exists a possibility that the Chino sugar factory may not be operated this year, and that all beets raised for that factory in this section, as well as those at Chino, will in that event be shipped to Oxnard. The new sugar mill erected at Oxnard has a capacity of 2000 tons per day, and if at the startup this week the machinery works smoothly and there is no accident, the Chino mill will not be operated. If any accident occurs, necessitating the stoppage of the works, the Chino factory will be started. There are between 11,000 and 12,000 acres of fine beets at Oxnard, from which 160,000 tons of beets are expected. At Chino there are 10,000 tons, while in this valley (including Florence) about 6000 tons. The Senator thinks it quite possible that the Chino mill will not be started up, and that consequently all beets will be shipped to Oxnard. C.R.Swim, a new arrival from Portsmouth, Ohio, has opened a boot and shoe and gents' furnishing-goods store in the Koll block on Center street, four doors east of the Postoffice, and this morning makes announcement to our readers of his list of prices on a line of footwear, hats, pants, overalls, shirts, suspenders and so forth. Mr. Swim is a gentleman of very agreeable address, is here for business, and knows enough of the value of printers' ink to go into its use extensively. He is making quite a display of goods, although his stock has not yet entirely arrived, and his prices appeal irresistibly to the purchaser. We extend him a cordial welcome into the community, and hope his lines hereabout may be uniformly pleasant. Anaheim is on the edge of a boom, and welcomes all classes of desirable people into the community, and we think he is one of the kind we need. Anyhow he looks so on first acquaintance, and we hope he will not only continue so, but go on improving as he becomes better acquainted in the community. Look over his list of prices, and then go and look over his stock of goods, and see how they compare with Los Angeles prices. Conductor Sharpe, Engineer and Fireman Courtney, well known here, having been connected with the Southern Pacific train for some weeks past, were in a bad head-on collision with train at Clement junction. Mr. Angeles, on Sunday afternoon quarter past 1 o'clock. Sharpe with bad bruises received in this up, Engineer Whitney's should dislocate, and Fireman Courtney his leg broken below the knee. The work train was laid off day night, and the crew were in to Los Angeles, where they signed to one of the nine extra running to Santa Monica on Sunday. As they approached Clement on their way back, they espied the pay train coming around rounding the curve at that point engineers and firemen jumped results as stated, the engineer man of the pay train escaping. The pay train engine was badly injured, the engine attached to being also badly damaged. What It Means. 20 per cent discount means a great deal.
