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 Hot Fever. ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1904. NOTE AND COMMENT Dr. E. W. Hilgard, head of the agricultural department of the university of California, in a recent article upon the physical features of this state outlines them as follows: California in many particulars is pre-eminent in the sisterhood of states and territories. It is second in area, possesses the highest mountain peaks, viz: 14,000 to 15,000 (excepting in Alaska), and the lowest depressions—nearly 400 feet below sea level; supports the tallest trees—the Big Tree groves, probably the largest oak—the Joseph Hooker oak near Chico—the largest area of redwood forests, the greatest mountain scenery, the greatest variety of climate, no tornadoes, and the finest harbor. Agriculturally, it is the home of the navel orange and the raisin industry, and its soils are the deepest and probably the richest. It is the state where the peach worm was first successfully combated, and the codlin moth most thoroughly studied and controlled. The state of California extends through 9½ degrees of latitude south south of the 42 degree and on a south southeast line is about 775 miles in length, with an approximate average in width of 250 miles. Along the eastern border lies the high range of the Sierra Nevada with its many snow-capped crests and peaks; it rises gently from the west, almost from the sea level, then falls off steeply toward the high plateau of the state of Nevada, toward which he believes contains the much-sought radium. Mr. Mitchell is one of the oldest and most experienced prospectors of this section, and his belief that he has an ore containing the valuable radium is based on a thorough study from published reports of the conditions under which the substance is found. Early in the eighties, when Mr. Mitchell was in charge of the Silver Reef mining claims for the Christy Silver Mining and Milling Co. of San Francisco, a party of prospectors working under his supervision discovered large deposits in the mountains near the boundary between Utah and Arizona of a pitchblende ore, which he art that time pronounced worthless, but which, in the light of the later discovery of radium, may be worth a fortune. Samples of the ore which he has kept since its discovery will be sent to the University of California to be tested. It is said the beds of pitchblende are very extensive. Nor to be outdone by his friend and neighbor, Henry T. Oxnard, Senator Bard has put a candidate for the assembly in the field in Ventura. He is H. K. Snow, jr., son of H. K. Snow of Tustin. Mr. Snow was, according to the Riverside Press, one of the most active workers for Captain Daniels in Ventura county in 1902. He was a delegate to the congressional convention. His opponent is Major Driffel, manager of the Oxnard factory. He has recently renounced his democratic ideas, and is now a full-fledged republican. President Charles H. Baker of the Snowqualmie Falls Power Company predicts that within ten years WILL FRUIT GROWING CONTINUE What the State Board of Trade Says in Reference to This Important California Industry. The California state board of trade continues to issue valuable bulletins calling attention to the advantages this state possesses as a place of residence and from the point of the earning capacity of its lands and resources of all kinds. The latest is a contribution by General N. P. Chipman, president of the board, the subject of which is "Will Fruit Growing Continue to Be Profitable in California?" General Chipman answers this question in the affirmative and marshals so many conclusive facts in support of his position that no one can read the bulletin and fail to be convinced of its entire truth. He calls attention in the first place to the fact that a business has been created in fruit growing which in the year 1902 brought in to the fruit growers of the state between $35,000,000 and $40,000,000 and the returns for 1903 were even greater. In addition to the large sums mentioned there were also large returns to the packers, canners, wine dealers, commission men and transportation companies. A very striking showing is made relative to the extent to which the fruits of California have transplanted the products of orchards and vineyards of other lands. Two paragraphs on this phase of the matter are particularly interesting. They are given in full as follows: "We have practically driven from American market the French prune and the raisin; we have made large roads on the importation of oranges, lemons, figs, almonds and walnuts and wine and grape brandy; we are rapidly marketing side by side with the foreign articles our preserved fruits and The state of California extends through 94 degrees of latitude south of the 42 degree and on a south southeast line is about 775 miles in length, with an approximate average in width of 250 miles. Along the eastern border lies the high range of the Sierra Nevada with its many snow-capped crests and peaks; it rises gently from the west, almost from the sea level, then falls off steeply toward the high plateau of the state of Nevada, toward which only a few streams flow. Along the Pacific extend the coast ranges, mostly rising abruptly from the water's edge and making a coast dangerous to navigation; they usually consist of two or three parallel ranges, rarely rising much over 3300. Within these coast mountains the larger valleys mostly trend northwesterly in their course to the sea; while few streams of any importance flow from the landward slopes of the eastern border ranges. Between the coast ranges and the Sierra Nevada lies the great valley with a length of about 400 and an average width of about 60 miles; through its northern half flows the Sacramento river, while from the southern half comes the San Joaquin river. These two rivers unite near the middle, north and south, of the valley, and first flows westward through extensive delta lands, then by a wide detour pass successfully into three lake-like basins, Suisun, San Pablo and San Francisco bays, through the golden gate to the ocean. These main rivers receive practically all their waters from the streams that descend from the Sierra Nevada, mostly in deep canyons. Southward the great valley is terminated by the conjunction of the coast ranges with the Sierra Nevada. South of the cross ridge thus formed the Tehachapi range lies; first the western tongue of the Mojave desert, which in turn is bordered on the south by the Sierra Madre (San Gabriel and San Bernardino ranges) south of which lies the valley of Southern California, extending from Los Angeles to Redlands; now dividing into the San Gabriel and San Bernardino valleys. Farther south lies a narrow but highly productive belt along the coast and many fertile high valleys and basins, between ranges generally trending north and south, lie to the westward of the southward continuation of the Sierra Madre, the San Jacinto range. East of the latter lies the Colorado desert, which continues northward into was, according to the Riverside Press, one of the most active workers for Captain Daniels in Ventura county in 1902. He was a delegate to the congressional convention. His opponent is Major Driffel, manager of the Oxnard factory. He has recently renounced his democratic ideas, and is now a full-fledged republican. President Charles H. Baker of the Snowqualmie Falls Power Company predicts that within ten years all railroads in the Pacific northwest will be operated by electric power. He bases his prediction on the expected rapid development of a new combination electric motor and generator, on which electric experts throughout the country are now working. This combination machine, when perfected and made commercially available, will enable locomotives hauling continental trains down grade to generate electric power and throw it into an immense transmission system. This system will be centered to furnish a maximum voltage of but small percentage, in comparison with the peak load of the system. Should all railroads between the British boundary and the Columbia river, for instance, be thrown into one system electrically, it would be possible for a half dozen trains descending the mountain to generate power for hauling a similar number of trains up grade on other tracks. This combination motor generator will apply the current for train traction purposes with the motor end, while the generator will develop power from gravity traction. Baker is an electrical expert and has made the Snowqualmie power system one of the largest in the country. The last vestige of the American occupation of Cuba disappeared last Thursday afternoon, when the American flag was lowered from the Cabanas fortress and the last battalion of American soldiers marched to the pier and boarded the United States army transport Sumner, which left for Florida. The Sumner had brought the Seventeenth and Nineteenth companies of United States artillery from Santiago, and these troops participated with the Twenty-first and Twenty-second companies, who have been stationed at Havana, in the evacuation of Cabanas. President Palma and the members of his cabinet, Gen. Rodriguez, commander of the rural guards; United States Minister Squiers and the members of the location staff witnessed the case. A very striking showing is made relative to the extent to which the fruits of California have transplanted the products of the orchards and vineyards of other lands. Two paragraphs on this phase of the matter are particularly interesting. They are given in full as follows: "We have practically driven from the American market the French prune and the raisin; we have made large inroads on the importation of oranges, lemons, figs, almonds and walnuts and wine and grape brandy; we are rapidly marketing side by side with the foreign article our preserved fruits and jams in various attractive forms. We are reaching into foreign countries with many of our fruits. The California prune is well known in Germany, England and France. "Our wines are on the tables of connoisseurs in nearly all civilized countries and in increasing supply and there is no reason why the California raisin should not be as well known in Russia and Germany and England as the Valencia and Malaga. The California apple grower is a successful competitor with the eastern and Canadian grower at London and Liverpool; the California Bartlett pears are familiar to to the lovers of that delicious fruit in England, and a large part of our dried pears, apricots and peaches find a market in Germany and other foreign countries." Treatting another phase General Chipman writes: "The essayist who treated the subject of the raisin at the Fresno convention (a Fresno raisin grower) counselled no more planting of raisin grapes. Statistics show that in 1898 the raisin crop was as large as it was in 1902 and in ten years the output increased only 10,000 tons. Look at the citrus industry. In 1893 it was 80,727 tons, and in 1902 it was 225,668 tons, and the orange grower was never more prosperous. There was an increased shipment of fresh deciduous fruits in 1903 at prices reported satisfactory. Dried fruits moved out very promptly at remunerative prices and nuts at a high price. The Fresno resolution was simply the statement of an existing fact." The conclusions that General Chipman draws are that California is better prepared to sell and there are more customers to buy California fruits than there were ten years ago. While fruit growing has been a leading industry in France, Italy, Spain and Greece for many years the ghost of over-production is seldom mentioned in those countries. The export trade that is so valuable to France, Italy and Spain is accessible to California and a growing home market is also certain. The bulletin is intended to give reliable information to those who may be induced to become settlers in California. Bearing the official imprint of the California state board of trade it will be calculated to attract attention and to receive credence in all parts of the world." "To the intending settler in California," writes General Chipman, "I unhesitatingly say come and join the noble army of fruit growers." lies the valley of Southern California, extending from Los Angeles to Redlands; now dividing into the San Gabriel and San Bernardino valleys. Farther south lies a narrow but highly productive belt along the coast and many fertile high valleys and basins, between ranges generally trending north and south, lie to the westward of the southward continuation of the Sierra Madre, the San Jacinto range. East of the latter lies the Colorado desert, which continues northward into the Mojave desert and Death valley; and southwestward into the Colorado river delta. Much of this desert country lies considerably below the sea level, having undoubtedly once formed part of the Gulf of California, and still containing extensive saline deposits. John Mitchell of Santa Ana has specimens of a pitchblende which which left for Florida. The Summer had brought the Seventeenth and Nineteenth companies of United States artillery from Santiago, and these troops participated with the Twenty-first and Twenty-second companies, who have been stationed at Havana, in the evacuation of Cabanas. President Palma and the members of his cabinet, Gen. Rodriguez, commander of the rural guards; United States Minister Squiers and the members of the legation staff witnessed the ceremony of hauling down the American flag, with the usual salutes. President Palma delivered an address which was replied to by Major Brown. There were many more American spectators than Cubans, and the only diplomat besides Mr. Squiers to witness the departure of the Americans was the Chinese minister and his staff. The British minister sent his regrets. I WILL GIVE $1000 IF I FAIL TO CURE ANY CANCER OR TUMOR I treat before it Pleasens Deep Glands or Attaches to Bone. NO KNIFE OR PAIN, NO PAY UNTIL CURED.

"To the intending settler in California," writes General Chipman, "I unhesitatingly say come and join the noble army of fruit growers and be not afraid of over-production." Military life is necessarily made up largely of loafing. You cannot keep a man continuously at drilling, marching or any other branch of military training for eight hours a day and five or six days a week. You have to invent a great many other jobs for him, even to make a pretense of keeping him occupied. But these jobs are nearly all 'loafing' jobs, and when it is all done the soldier has a great amount more idle hands per diem than any man in the same rank of life. I do not know whether it is possible to arrive at any remedy for this, but, if it is, the direction in which I should look for the remedy would be to make every soldier work at some other trade for a certain number of hours each day. The number of hours might be shorter in the summer, when there is more opportunity for training and military exercise, and longer in the winter. If this were practicable, no doubt it would make an enormous difference to the value of the soldier as a citizen when he leaves the ranks—London Truth. Working Up to It.

Prof. C. W. Woodworth of the department of agriculture at Berkeley is carrying on an important economic experiment in the culture of bees and the production of honey. For this purpose he has had constructed what is in effect a bee-hive made entirely of glass. Through this all the honey-making operations of the bees are being carefully watched, and in addition the materials used by the bees and the honey produced are being carefully weighed. The experiment is being carried on entirely within this transparent hive, the bees being allowed no communication with the outside world except for the purpose of carry- ing out their dead. Apparently they have no objection to the close scrutiny under which they are living, for they carry on their work just as under ordinary conditions. The important feature of the experiment is the substitution of artificially prepared food in the place of the usual plant products from which honey is made. The object of the test is to ascertain the minimum cost of production, and at the same time to secure as good, if not a superior quality, of honey. The food which is being substituted in the place of the nectar of flowers is beet sugar. This is moistened to a paste-like consistency and placed under glass cases within reach of the bees. The whole apparatus is placed upon the scales so that the daily records can be made of the amount of material that can be consumed and of the amount of honey that can be produced. AN ANCIENT DINNER SET A Unique Repast Where the Viands Enjoyed Were Many Centuries Old Recently an antiquary in the Belgian capital named Goebel gave what was perhaps the oldest dinner which has ever been eaten. A description was given by one of the guests, Amaziah Dukes. He says: "At that dinner I ate apples that ripened more than 1,800 years ago, bread made from wheat grown before the children of Isreal passed through the Red Sea, spread with batter which was made when Elizabeth was queen of England and I washed down the repast with wine which was old when Columbus was playing barefoot with the boys in Genoa. "The apples were from an earthen jar taken from the ruins of Pompeii. The wheat was taken from a chamber in one of the pyramids, the butter from a stone shelf in an old well in Scotland, where for several centuries it had lain in an earthen crock in joy water, and the wine was recovered from an old vault in the city of Corinth. There were six guests at the table, and each had a mouthful of bread and a teaspoonful of wine, but was permitted to help himself bountifully to the butter, there being several pounds of it. The apple jar held about two-thirds of a gallon. The fruit was sweet and as finely flavored as if it had been picked but yesterday." When dinner was recently given in Singapore in honor of the retiring governor, Sir Frank Swettenham, snipe were "on the bill." To provide them the hotel man sent out forty native hunters to range the province before the dinner. Simply to go to the market, as the New York restauranteur does, is easier. The plate used at the mansion house The matter of feed is of immense importance to the farmer. Wrong feeding is profit. The up-to-date farmer knows what to feed his cows to get the most milk, his pigs to get the most pork, his hens to Science and Happiness. The library of Hanover possesses a large number of unpublished manuscripts left by the philosopher Leibnitz. Among them is a Methodus docendi, which reveals much of the nature of the man and his mental attitude. Leibnitz was not a professor; he even refused emphatically to enter on a university career. But pedagogical questions had considerable interest for him. He conceived of an education much vaster than that of the universities. His doctrine of science led him to believe that everything can be taught, including happiness. He was veritably possessed with a zeal for the public good, and according to his view, the happiness of humanity depends on the progress of the sciences. Happiness, he believed, consists of three things—perfection of the soul, health of the body and the commodities of life. Perfection of the soul is obtained through science, which teaches us what we are and what we was permitted to help himself boundfully to the butter, there being several pounds of it.

The plate used at the mansion house dinners of the lord mayor of London weighs nearly 4,000 pounds and the lowest estimate of its value is $25,-000. Much of it is gilt and some of the modern plate is fashioned by remelting from old article made from silver mined in England 400 years ago. Chicago Chronicle. The Japs are making progress in almost every branch of industry. The watch and clock industry is now spreading all over the Mikado's Empire, and promises ultimate success. Nagoya alone is turning out in one single factory $250,000 worth of watches every year. The wall-clock industry of Japan is also in a fair way to succeed. In 1898 Japan imported still $1,184,790 worth of watches from Switzerland; last year the amount was only $89,943. The shipments of foreign mutton from Argentina are considerably increasing. During the last three months of the present year they amounted to 20,008 tons' valued at $1,600,648. Large quantities are regularly shipped to London.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous services.
