The quarterly report of the Horticultural Commissioners shows that since the Supervisors made the appropriation of $500 in August last, for the purchase of fumigating tents, the sum of $87 has been turned back into the public treasury. Of the original amount appropriated, only about $390 was used, and $108 was placed in a chemical fund. Of this sum $91 remains in the hands of the commissioners.
The charge for fumigating is placed at the nominal sum of 2½ cents per tent per hour—25 cents per hour for the ten tents under control of the commissioners. Besides this comes the charge for the chemicals, which are furnished at cost price. It is not the purpose to make a profit upon this manner of fumigation—the object is to destroy scale in such orchards where the limited number of trees make it expedient for professional fumigators to take their outfits. The work is presumed to be done at cost price, plus a small percentage to reimburse the county for the purchase of the outfit.
The tents have been in use half a year, and not steadily at that, yet $87 has been covered into the treasury in partial payment of the original appropriation. It was a trifle hard to get the appropriation in the first place, yet no money was ever put to better use. These small orchards were breeding places for scale, where they hatched year after year, to go forth to prey upon those orchards where the trees were treated to the cyanide process. As a consequence there is less scale in the discontinuing places of the matter is published. Very faithfully yours, W. M. WEIL, Secretary.
Mr. Weil's letter contains the following enclosure:
At a meeting called by the Chamber of Commerce, Fruit Growers' Convention, Municipal League, and other commercial bodies to deal with the large number of colonists and visitors that will arrive here, the following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas Through the action of the transportation companies in providing for the introduction of desirable immigrants into the State, a welcome emergency is about to be created, and we are suddenly to enjoy unusual opportunities for settling our vacant lands, and generally increasing the prosperity of the State; therefore be it
Resolved That a permanent organization, known as the California Colony Association, be formed for the purpose of disseminating information regarding available lands and labor; to co-operate with all other organizations of a kindred character throughout the State, and to perform all other acts that will further the object of the association.
The address of the association is the Academy of Sciences building, 819 Market street, San Francisco. Any information furnished it relative to the matters set forth in its letter will serve the double purpose of being thankfully received by the representative men forming the association, as well as contributing its quote in directing hitherward a part of the desirable immigration now setting in toward California. Never before has such a tide of travel been headed this way—these Easterners have been seen upon the streets of Anaheim during the week. We extend a welcome to them. No section offers greater advantages than Anaheim and the rich valley surrounding it. Let our Chamber of Commerce place itself in communication with this Colony Association, and let all information be furnished it.
Quite a bit of discussion has revived relative to the attitude of harvests by the presence of thousands of people in town during the week, by the issue of "special numbers," and the practice of all the arts so dear to the heart of the mellifluent, money-chasing city publisher.
The countryman had his leg pulled. Sure!
Now all this thing is doing again. The Fiesta management has employed an "advertising bureau" to send out $1 worth of advertising, and $10 worth of free notices. We presume the nutmeg-headed rural journalist will be taken in as of yore. The Gazette publishes the ad. this week, at our regular rates, with the "commission off" to the advertising agent, but we serve notice that all this "free stuff" will find a lodgment in the capacious waste basket. Se-guro!
When the rural publishers come to understand that they are in business for the precise reason that the city chaps are, they will come to realize that "reform is necessary," and that it is high time to change their attitude toward the Fiesta—to make it more in keeping with that of the Los Angeles dailies, which do not print these things for nothing. The city papers have been getting all the chicken, and the country publishers the feathers. A bas la Fiesta! Car raho!
The St. Louis Globe-Democra prints a picture of Mayor Phelan of San Francisco, and labels it Genera Funston.
The Santa Ana Herald announces it will cast off its patent innards and hereafter be all homeprint. A good move. Its semi-weekly edition will be discontinued, and it will hence forth be issued in weekly form Good again.
Kansas is a great State. It produced Funston and the Landlord-and Carrie Nation.
The tents have been in the year, and not steadily at that, yet $87 has been covered into the treasury in partial payment of the original appropriation. It was a trifle hard to get the appropriation in the first place, yet no money, was ever put to better use. These small orchards were breeding places for scale, where they hatched year after year, to go forth to prey upon those orchards where the trees were treated to the cyanide process. As a consequence there is less scale in the district (these nesting places of the pest have been destroyed), and this valley is shipping out as bright and clean fruit as can be found in Southern California.
Mr. Loftus of the oil firm of Graham & Loftus knows a story of such thrilling interest that it would seem to furnish the groundwork for a melodrama that would put in the shade many of those now before the public, what with their red-fire and calcium-light effects. Some days ago the boys at the oil wells fell to telling stories about their experiences. One of them, a young man named Davis, working on the hill, was declared to have told the story which possessed the most exhilarating interest among all that were there related. Twenty years ago, Mr. Davis, then a lad of 10, was a passenger in a railway carriage back in the oil fields of Pennsylvania. The train was running at a lively rate, when the engineer beheld some distance ahead of him a great mass of oil that covered the track from a tank which had burst upon the hillside. He could not stop the train in time to avoid the oil, and resolved to put on all steam and get over the dangerous place as speedily as possible. The instant the engine struck the oil the gas ignited and in an instant the oil was in flames. The engineer, fireman and train crew and many of the passengers lost their lives in the flames. Davis ran through his car while the train gradually enveloped itself in flames.
"While everyone was terror-stricken, a man picked me up in his arms, and as the train ran over a place which the oil had not yet reached, he raised a window and lowered me to the ground by the hair. I escaped the flames by running, but I believe I am the only man who was saved out of that trainload of passengers."
Mr. Loftus had been an interested listener.
"I am the man who helped you out of the car," he said, as the two long-separated friends shook hands, glad to meet again after their thrill-
Quite a bit of discussion has revived relative to the attitude of the country press toward the "Fiesta," which is held periodically in Los Angeles. It is a well-known fact that, while the Los Angeles papers are notoriously overpaid for booming an affair which is calculated to bring thousands of visitors to their town, thus making it profitable to them in various ways, the country press has hitherto given it "free notices," in response to a polite request to aid an undertaking of "great value to Southern California." Some of these nutmeg-headed rural publishers who have been taken in by such chaff as the Fiesta management have seen fit to bait them with are given an opportunity of "riding in the parade," along with the rest of the soldiers and civilians of high and low degree. Then they are given the chance of taking their families to an overcrowded restaurant and paying three prices for a meal which the faithful housewife can discount at home for a fourth of the money. If he has been stupid enough to have printed about four columns of stuff about the "leading theater and its great attraction during Fiesta week," he is given two passes into the gallery of a second-class playhouse, where his morals are jarred, and whence he issues with a bad taste in the mouth. Later on the rural publisher is given the chance of procuring a stuffy and ill-smelling room on the top floor of one of the leading hotels, paying $2 therefor, and if he desires breakfast at the hostelry it will cost him 75 cents for himself and as much more for each member of the family. He has nightmare during the night, wondering what the devil he would do if the blawsted hotel took fire, and has to descend four floors the next morning, walk through the ladies' sitting-room, the library and billiard "parlor" to get into a stupid little bathtub which has not been fumigated in a year. Then he is at his wits' ends to find his room and the bosom of his family again. Then comes the $2 for the room agony, $1 for the bath, and extra for towels and soap. Oh, it is a rare delight to stop at a Los Angeles hotel during before has such a tide of travel been headed this way—these Easterners have been seen upon the streets of Anaheim during the week. We extend a welcome to them. No section offers greater advantages than Anaheim and the rich valley surrounding it. Let our Chamber of Commerce place itself in communication with this Colony Association, and let all information be furnished it.
Fruit growers are pleased with learning that Governor Gage refused to sign the bill before him providing for the appointment of horticultural commissioners without pay, and which sought to kill the law's usefulness.
The present law has worked well and it has been through its provision that the orchardists have succeeded in stopping the introduction of dangerous scale pests, and also killing off whose pests have found lodgement. The proposed law would so cripple the mission that its usefulness would worth nothing to the fruit men, while the real cost of keeping up the work under the new law would be approximately equal to the present cost.
Another bill, which Governor Gage signed, and which is now the law, gives fruit men great satisfaction, and that is the bill providing for the proper belting of all fruit packages, and making it a misdmeanor to do otherwise.
Unhappy Settlers.
The tribulations of the settlers in Perris irrigation district are piling fast. They have just learned that this bill introduced in the legislature, passed by that body, providing that any one resident and property owner in bonded irrigation districts might choose pay off his pro rata of indebtedness and thus clear the title to his land, was not signed by Governor Gage, and this means that many those people will have to abandon further attempt at law, or any other way, to secure a title to their homes a release from the bonded indebtedness of the district.
Following this news comes word that Judge Welborn of the circuit court has given a decision in the case of H. Thompson vs. the Perris Irrigator district, in favor of the plaintiff, claring the bonds held by Thompson be valid, and also giving judgment nearly two thousand dollars delinquency upon the bonds held by him. The total judgment approximates owe $10,000, and means that other holders will now follow the lead set by Thompson and secure judgment against them.
These conditions are a severe test to people of the district, who have no money to further litigate for wrong they think are their rights. The people sold their bonds and for them we never got, and this is where he ship began. If the water had been plied as agreed upon by the Bear
arms, and as the train ran over a place which the oil had not yet reached, he raised a window and lowered me to the ground by the hair. I escaped the flames by running, but I believe I am the only man who was saved out of that train-load of passengers."
Mr. Loftus had been an interested listener.
"I am the man who helped you out of the car," he said, as the two long-separated friends shook hands, glad to meet again after their thrilling experience.
Mr. Loftus is one of the most popular men on the hill, and he has made a warm personal friend by the story which the boys are now talking about at the wells.
A LETTER received from W. M. Weil, Secretary of the California Colony Association, dated San Francisco, March 30th, refers to the public-spirited purposes of the association, and asks for information upon several matters which ought to be of interest to our readers:
EDITOR GAZETTE—Dear Sir: This association was formed by the merchants of San Francisco and is supported voluntarily by them for the good of the State.
No doubt you are aware that a large number of strangers are arriving with the object of seeking homes. We have established this information bureau in order to place at their disposal, "free of charge of any kind," reliable information regarding available lands and labor. We should be obliged to you if you will publish in your paper the above facts, and mention that we will be glad to receive information with regard to available lands in your neighborhood; giving details, such as distance from nearest railway station, transportation facilities, what it was assessed at the last time, what they want for it, and, in short, full information. We should also be glad to know of any shortage of labor in your district; at what seasons of the year wanted, what kind of labor, whether men or women, and what the average wage is. Will you also kindly send us a copy of your paper in which wondering what the devil he would do if the blawsted hotel took fire, and has to descend four floors the next morning, walk through the ladies' sitting-room, the library and billiard "parlor" to get into a stupid little bathtub which has not been fumigated in a year. Then he is at his wits' ends to find his room and the bosom of his family again. Then comes the $2 for the room agony, $1 for the bath, and extra for towels and soap. Oh, it is a rare delight to stop at a Los Angeles hotel during Fiesta week—or, for that matter, at any other time.
The rural publisher who rides on transportation kindly furnished by the railroad companies, in return for advertising carried at starvation rates, finds the week before Fiesta that the thrifty passenger agent has, because of the "heavy demands upon the traffic department," revoked his "pass" during that time, and he thus has the happiness, after publishing all the time tables and other stuff about the Fiesta, to get into line and pungle up for his ticket and look as pleasant as anticipations of the Fiesta and all its expensive hilarity will permit.
Some years ago, on the occasion of the last Fiesta, a committee of Los Angeles newspapermen succeeded in taking in the rural publishers beautifully. The city papers were "doing the work for nothing," so they said, and of course the countrymen should do the same. They did. They printed columns of illly prepared stuff gratis, and had the pleasure of sacrificing a $10 bill for every day spent in the Angelic burg during that time of tinhorn nightmare and bunco-steering. However, when the report of the Finance Committee was published, some weeks thereafter, it was seen that one of the Los Angeles papers had been paid nearly $1500 "for advertising the Fiesta," another some $1000, a third $750, and so on. Besides this, the papers reaped golden
Work on Salt Lake Rooms
Work on the reconstruction of San Pedro. Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad commenced last week. Hundred men are employed at Hollins and in that vicinity, on the main line of the Terminal. They are wide enough the roadbed, putting in new ties preparing to lay seventy-five-pairs.
The Riverside City Council has entered into an agreement with West Riverside Power company with the company agrees to furnish city with electricity for the next twelve years at $6 a horse-power a month company's proposition is to furnish horse-power within twelve months after two years (10) horse-power four years (500 horse-power). At present the city is using 600 horse-power half of which is brought to River from a point below Redlands, eight miles distant. A new electric plant was recently built by the Riverside at a cost of $50,000, but unable to meet the demand. The Riverside Power company will commence work soon upon a canal will carry 4000 inches of water drop of nearly a hundred feet near "Narrows," eight miles southwest of the business center of the city. They will construct a power-house build a transmission line to the sub-station. Over $250,000 will be pended.

GREAT PRODUCTION OF OIL.
Orange County Wells are Fine Producers,
And the Total Output is Constantly Improving.
The oil industry of Orange county,
writes a recent visitor to the wells, is rapidly assuming vast proportions.
What was probably the first oil well in California was drilled by John Chandler in 1876, in a little canyon a stone's throw from where the famous Loftus gusher now is. No one at that time dreamed of the future value of oil and the well attracted little notice.
Chandler pumped about ten barrels a day for some time, and finally lost the well through some financial trouble.
The hole is still there, surrounded by a mass of hardened brea. Since those days there has been a great change.
To-day the proved oil territory begins immediately southeast of Whittier, and follows the general trend of foothills in a southeasterly course, down nearly to the Santa Ana river, a distance of more than twelve miles. The width of the oil-bearing district varies from two to five miles, making at least forty square miles of ground beneath which lies the greasy liquid.
The Brea canyon district lies in the northern portion of the county and joins the Puente company’s famous group of wells. The hills of the Brea canyon district are a continuation of the Puente hills. The formation is very similar, with the exception that in Brea canyon large quantities of brea are found on the surface. The oil-bearing strata are soft, sandy shales, containing much petroleum. Oil is found at depths varying from 300 to 1500 feet.
It is heavy and black, gravity 18 to 20 degrees, and is used only for fuel purposes.
There are in the canyon proper eighteen producing wells and several wells are being sunk. Among those drilling is one, now nearly completed, owned by the Menges Oil company. In this well the drill struck the oil-sand at 1350 feet, and petroleum immediately ran up 100 feet in the hole.
The Brea Canyon Oil company has seven producing wells and two drilling.From these seven wells the company sold during February, 1901, 10,000 barrels of oil for which it received under contract 90 cents a barrel. It has one well that is pumping 170 barrels daily.

Will Start a Town.
It is reported that parties connected with the Salt Lake road have bought a tract of several hundred acres of land near Lemon station, in the Spadra valley, and that it is the supposed intention to start a town at that place on the line of the new road.—Chino Champion concerns all have pipe lines running to the railroad and to the large storage tank.
The output of the Columbia wells is sold to the Standard Oil company, for refining purposes, at $1.87 a barrel. The Columbia is the only company in the country that produces refining oil in quantities. The corporation's four wells yield an average of 250 barrels daily.
There are two pumping plants in this field, one of which pumps sixteen wells, but has power enough to pump fifty wells if they were so situated that they could connect pumping rods. The Santa Fe wells yield gas enough to fire the steam boilers and for domestic uses. The water comes from the Anaheim Union Water company's system. The district consumes about 400 barrels of water daily.
Beginning above Yorba on the Santa Ana river, and taking a southeasterly course, this formation can be traced along the entire range of bills through Orange County Park, El Modena, and just east of Irvine, where it runs nearly south through El Toro, Capistrano and San Juan by the Sea. Here it follows the shore along the ocean for several miles, extending northwest through Laguna and Newport Beach and south into San Diego county.
The total output of Orange county oil wells is 46,000 barrels monthly, of which 38,500 barrels are fuel oil and 7,500 barrels are refining oil. The oil is all sold at a contract price of 90 cents a barrel for fuel oil and $1.87 for refining oil, making a total monthly income from the oil fields of $48,675. If this production continue, it will give up output of 672,000 barrels for 1901, with a total value of $584,100. This is interesting from the fact that in 1899 Orange county produced only 108,077 barrels of oil. The industry is in a thoroughly sound condition.
Rain.
A smart shower of rain fell yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock. As we went to press last evening appearances were good for more. Rain is needed, and an inch or two of it would be worth millions to growing crops.
This amount, however does exclude $762,426,989 in certificated treasury notes outstanding when offset by an equal amount in theirury kept for their redemption.
The cash in the treasury is as follows: Reserve fund,$150 trust fund,$767,426,989; general$145,377,580; in national banks tories,$97,649,637; total,$1,155 against which there are demilitaries outstanding amounting$955,688; which leaves a cash on hand of$308,443,521.

Drying preparations simply develop dry catarrh; they dry up the secretions, which adhere to the membrane and decompose, causing a far more serious trouble than the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all drying inhalants, fumes, smokes and snuffs and use that which cleanses, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm is such a remedy and will cure catarrh or cold in the head easily and pleasantly. A trial size will be mailed for 10 cents. All druggists sell the 50c.size. Ely Brothers, 56 Warren St., N.Y.
The Balm cures without pain, does not irritate or cause sneezing. It spreads itself over an irritated and angry surface, relieving immediately the painful inflammation.
With Ely's Cream Balm you are armed against Nasal Catarrh and Hay Fever.
