AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT Continued from Page 2 By no fault of the Secretary its scientific operations have been handicapped by the insufficient compensation given to experts. No branch of science is of greater benefit to the farmer than vegetable physiology and pathology. Men skilled in these, as soon as their work becomes known, are eagerly sought at large salaries by other Governments. The department has taught the farmer what plant food means, that he must first feed the plant before the plant will feed him. The department expert in that branch found that his services in private employment would command a vastly greater compensation than the department paid him. There was some interlocking between his work in the department and his preparation for leaving it, but this affords no adequate ground for a scandal. The only scandal is in connection with the leak in the cotton crop reports. This is established by proofs. The statistical bureau is being reorganized, and its head has resigned. Upon his resignation the fact was divulged that his salary was $1400 per year! Here was a man in charge of a confidential matter of the first class, with the cotton crop reports able to affect the market one way or the other $30,000,000 in one day, getting a salary of about $3 a day. Hod carriers are better paid and bricklayers get twice that sum per day. Yet Congress insists upon rating positions like that in the Agricultural Department the same as mere clerical positions in the other tial matter of the first class, with the cotton crop reports able to affect the market one way or the other $30,000,000 in one day, getting a salary of about $3 a day. Hod carriers are better paid and bricklayers get twice that sum per day. Yet Congress insists upon rating positions like that in the Agricultural Department the same as mere clerical positions in the other departments, and the Secretary is powerless. Congress applies the same principle of compensation to the scientific work of the department in soils, plants and seed distribution, vegetable pathology and physiology and entomology. The country is ready to support the application of a different principle of compensation to the scientific and statistical work which is peculiar to the Agricultural Depement, and has no analogue in any other department of the Government. Secretary Wilson has the undiminished confidence of the country, and more. He has the gratitude of the farmers of the United States, who will support him in everything necessary to increase the efficiency of his department.—Call. A TOUCHING STORY is the saving from death the baby girl of Geo. A. Eyler, Cumberland, Md. He writes: "At the age of 11 months our little girl was in declining health with serious Throat Trouble, and two physicians gave her up. We were almost in despair when we resolved to try Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and colds. The first bottle gave relief; after taking four bottles she was cured, and is now in perfect health." Never fails to relieve and cure a cough or cold. At W. B. Hutchinson’s drugstore; price 59c and $1, guaranteed. Trial bottle free. California Population The school census of this year affords an interesting means of figuring the State’s gain in population since 1900, We are now just in the middle of the decade 1900-1910; and it is important to fix the present population of the state by some method more accurate than boom guesses. The school census of 1900, taken just before the federal census, gave us 361,- California Population The school census of this year affords an interesting means of figuring the State's gain in population since 1900. We are now just in the middle of the decade 1900-1910; and it is important to fix the present population of the state by some method more accurate than boom guesses. The school census of 1900, taken just before the federal census, gave us 361,-153 children of school age. This year the report shows 419,275. That is a gain of 58,122, or 16 per cent. In 1900 the population of the state was 1,485,-053. It is fair to presume that our gain in population has been just about the same as the gain in school children. A gain of 16 per cent would be 237,608. That would indicate a total population of 1,722,661 for California at the present time. If we continue to gain at the same ratio for the next five years, we should reach the 2,000,000 mark by the time the census of 1910 is taken. A study of the gain or loss by counties in five years, as shown by the school census for 1900 and 1905 is of marked interest. The figures are as follows: Gain. Per Ct. Alameda ... 2004 ... 6 Butte ... 589 ... 14 Contra Costa ... 841 ... 20 Del Norte ... 74 ... 12 Fresno ... 3744 ... 43 Humboldt ... 839 ... 12 Kern ... 968 ... 29 Kings ... 324 ... 13 Lassen ... 63 ... 6 Los Angeles ... 20229 ... 43 Madera ... 132 ... 9 Marin ... 817 ... 25 Mendocino ... 224 ... 4 NOTICE TO STOCKHOUSE: Of Anaheim Union Water Run No. 4 will begin Aug orders for rented stock must office before that date.

River- NEARLY HALF THE GAIN IN SCHOOL CHILDREN FOR THE ENTIRE STATE, 25,007, IS MADE IN SIX SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COUNTIES, VENTURA BEING THE ONLY SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COUNTY THAT Shows A Loss. Adding San Francisco, Alameda and Fresno to Southern California, and we have over 50,000 of the total gain of 58,122 for the state. Los Angeles and Fresno are the banner counties of the state in percentage of gain. Riverside's per cent of gain is exactly that of the state as a whole. Our total gain however, is nearly as great as that of Sacramento, which in 1900 had two and a half times as large a population as Riverside. The losses are mainly in the mining counties of the state and the wheat growing counties of the Sacramento valley. We are unable to offer any suggestion to account for the loss in Napa county, or in the coast counties of Monterey, San Luis Obispo and Ventura. Figuring on the same percentage of increase in population as in school children for the past five years, the population of the Southern California counties would now be as follows: Los Angeles ..... 243,526 Orange ..... 22,656 Riverside ..... 19,760 San Bernardino ..... 37,238 San Diego ..... 38,148 Santa Barbara ..... 19,691 Ventura ..... 14,080 Total ..... 395,099 —Riverside Press.

A little girl went into a neighbor's house one day and some apple parings lay on a plate on the table. After sitting awhile she said, "I smell apples." "Yes," the lady replied, "I guess you smell these apple parings on the plate." "No, no," said she. "taint them I smell. I smell whole apples."

Two Routes East The Rock Island offers two interesting routes to the East—Southern: by way of El Paso and New Mexico; Scenic: by way of Salt Lake and Colorado. Topeka and Kansas City are on the Southern route; Omaha and Des Moines on the Northern. Through Service via Both Practically a double route all the way to Chicago—through line to St. Louis, too, as well as to St. Paul and Minneapolis. Rock Island Tourist Sleeping Car service is superior in point of time, equipment, meals and routes. Full particulars, rates and tourist folder promptly upon request. The Rock Island management believes a passenger should be treated as a guest—the is to leave such a pleasant impression that the guest will "come again." Ambitious Young People If you are of an independent and money-earning turn of mind you will be interested in the following: One year’s training in the Woodbury Business College costs $100; six months, $55. The education thus acquired will enable you to learn from $50 to $100 a month. Taking an average of $60 a month, or $720 a year, in three years you will be $2,160 ahead of your companion who has spent his four years in high school. The Woodbury gives two main courses of study: Bakkeeping and Business Course. 2 Shorthand and Typewriting Course Either course will fit you for a good position. The two will fit you for a better one.
