WORLD INDUSTRIAL NOTES. In line with the present policy of the California State Agricultural society to keep the people advised of the best that is being done along industrial lines in the state, and conditions in the world at large that may be of interest to them, we present in this bulletin a few important notes gleaned from late consular reports which the society is now receiving from all parts of the world. Drilling for water in Cape Colony for stock purposes and for irrigation was first undertaken by the government for the farmers. Having demonstrated the value of such development the government now gives subsidies to those who put down wells equal to about half the cost of the work. In Newchwang, Manchuria, the government is considering the question of improving the crops by the importation of foreign agricultural seeds. The agricultural college at Chinanfee, province of Shanghong, is leading in the movement. Steam plows and other modern agricultural machinery are gradually being introduced into India. On the Caroni estate, in Trinidad, a considerable area of sugar cane grown on land plowed by steam has been lately harvested, and the average yield of plant cane was 34 tons, as compared with 23 tons harvested from land cultivated under the old system. not always sell the genuine mixing it with lower grades of the grade and wine of Pavese, of deservedly high losing reputation and price. Even in Colombia the municipal improvement is hold of the people. Boards ing formed in some cities will pose to collect and destroy bage, macadamize and spring streets, drain stagnant pools provide public parks. Consul Mahin of Not England, reporting on the war says: "The conditions in A all toward making higher and another upward move noticeable in May. This even well-informed persons of the continuous and unpre rise in wool prices during four years. It is noted, best there is a complete absenceulation, advancing prices be ly the result of a bona fide It is remarked that the sat quantities of wool absorb America are helping to sus ues. It is stated by Consul Smith, who writes from Leg reliable authority, that and a quarter million acres in Italy are devoted to the tion of the olive. The yording to official statistics was 53,000,000 gallons; for 800,000; for 1902, 54,000,000; 1903, 95,000,000 gallons. Steam plows and other modern agricultural machinery are gradually being introduced into India. On the Caroni estate, in Trinidad, a considerable area of sugar cane grown on land plowed by steam has been lately harvested, and the average yield of plant cane was 34 tons, as compared with 23 tons harvested from land cultivated under the old system. In the Grand Duchy of Baden, which is about the size of Connecticut, and which is a manufacturing province, the women employed in factories, tailor shops, etc., last year numbered 66,294, and the demand was so much greater than the supply as to lead to the importation into that part of Germany of women from Italy, Poland and Galicia. It appears that British wines containing very often 25 per cent proof spirit are exempt from duty, while light wines from foreign countries, which contain much less alcohol, pay a duty of 31 cents per gallon. This has resulted in an extensive production of wine in Great Britain. Large quantities of scientifically treated grape "must" (unfermented grape juice) paying no duty are imported for the purpose of being converted into "foreign wine." In 1905 the quantity of grape juice imported into Great Britain was 783,000 gallons, of which a large proportion was fermented and made into wine without paying duty. The merchants who import foreign wines claim to be at a great disadvantage, and for that reason want a duty imposed on this imported "must." All matches in France are made by the government. Its receipts from this one industry last year was $6,-851,180, out of which it made a profit of $5,134,355. The average consumption per capita was 1006 matches. The almond crop of Sicily suffered some damage by snow fall and unfavorable winds early in April and is now estimated at from 50,000 to 55,000 bags of 100 kilos (220 pounds) It is stated by Consul Smith, who writes from Legit reliable authority that all and a quarter million acres in Italy are devoted to the tion of the olive. The yording to official statistics was 53,000,000 gallons; for Italy it serves not only as amment, but as a primary food, as a substitute for butter and other fats for cooking specially in the southern part Sicily, etc., for lighting puri In the kingdom of Prussia are 19 schools in which the tion of machinery and th trades are taught, attended pupils; 33 academies of arc with 5285 pupils; 5 textile and 6 trade schools; 21 similar professional scho show an attendance of 14 schools for professional an cal education have a comptendance of 202,905 pupil similar institutions are ve attended by 23,905 scholars.

On April 29th the little commune of Canneto Pavese, near Pavia, in Lombardy, voted almost unanimously by referendum on the question of putting their business of wine-making under a common management. Canneto is a community without any diversity of occupations. It has 3014 inhabitants, practically all engaged in wine-making. The conditions of the wine trade have been growing worse, being monopolized by a few merchants, who dictate a lion's terms to the small proprietors, which the latter, not having wine cellars, are forced to accept; and the dealers do SUPPORT SCOTT'S EMULSION serves as a bridge to carry the weakened and starved system along until it can find firm support in ordinary food.

By far the heim also informs the Tribune that Krick got out and worked against friends who helped put him where he is today drawing down a fat salary, and that many Anaheimers will use their influence to oust him at the next annual meeting of new directors. BUSY HARVEST SEASON R.G. Dun & Co's. Monthly Review for June in Southern California. Grain harvesting, fruit curing and hay shipping are now occupying attention of agriculturists and horticulturists of this section. Hay and grain crops show yields much above the average. Some injury to these crops along the coast and foothills was done by the late rains, but in other districts the yield is from 25 to 40 percent more than last year. Barley in some localities running an average of 12 sacks to the acre. Los Angeles mills are paying $1 to $1.07 f. o. b. Last cabbage shipments have ceased. Market opened at $30 a ton and averaged $15 for the season. Canteloupes are going forward now rapidly and bringing good prices. Celery returns show 2275 carloads shipped, netting to growers $560,000. Beet crop is coming on rapidly. Tonnage to acre is heavy and being contracted for $5 to $5.70 an acre according to sugar content. Bean market generally is firm. Pinks only being plentiful and cheap. Some lima futures have been contracted, October shipment at $3.75. Deciduous crop moving is in full swing and drivers and canneries are... A citation by Consul James A. No writes from Leghorn, on authority, that about two quarter million acres of land are devoted to the cultivation of olive oil. The yield, according to official statistics for 1900, 200,000 gallons; for 1901, 96, for 1902, 54,000,000; and for 2000,000 gallons. By far the portion of the home production consumed in Italy. In the states olive oil is mainly used in cooking for salad, etc., but in reserves not only as a condition as a primary article of substitute for butter, lard, fats for cooking, and, especially the southern provinces, cheese, for lighting purposes. Kingdom of Prussia there schools in which the construc- machinery and the metal arts were taught, attended by 3132 academies of architecture pupils; 5 textile art, 7 high school and 6 trade schools, besides professional schools that attendance of 14,424; 1301 for professional and techni- tion have a compulsary attestance of 202,905 pupils, and 94 constitutions are voluntarily by 23,905 scholars. Adulteration of jute has been one of much complaint on the importers both in this island in Great Britain for the last years. This has led the chamber of commerce to ask the question, and it has bill entitled "An act for prevention of adulteration of jute for the suppression of cer- tices in the trade." The season jute has reached the price realized for fifty years. Lyons, France, adopted the bearing trolley line the com- sions had no strikes. Before taxes were frequent. Malia and throughout the East threshed being trodden out the feet of oxen in the open are going forward now rapidly and bringing good prices. Celery returns show 2275 carloads shipped, netting to growers $560,000. Beet crop is coming on rapidly. Tounage to acre is heavy and being contracted for $5 to $5.70 an acre according to sugar content. Bean market generally is firm. Pinks only being plentiful and cheap. Some lima futures have been contracted, October shipment at $3.75. Deciduous crop moving is in full swing and dryers and canneries are busy. The season is about two weeks late. Prices received are best in years. Apricots are scarce, bringing as high as $40 a ton. Peaches are in fair supply and canneries are paying $30 for freestones and $37.50 for clings. Prices in Central California average much higher. There is a lively demand for apricot pits and price has advanced from $8 to $35 a ton. Cured fruit stocks are practically exhausted. Spot prices are what the jobber can get. Prices for futures unsettled. The output of apricots for the state will not exceed 2500 tons; less than 1-6 that of last year. The growers are offering 12½ per lb. as against 7 to 7½ last year. Many are holding for 15¢. The output of peaches is figured at about 15,000 tons and prices rule 9½ to 10£ lb. Eastern buyers are slow at these prices and a large supply of evaporated apples may interfere with maintenance of these prices. The 1905 stock of raisins is well cleaned up, not a hundred cars remaining in the state, and prices are advancing. Coming crop is estimated at about 6500 tons. The month has seen a general clean up of tag ends of the different varieties of oranges, leaving clear market for late Valencias. Prices have been good for all varieties. F.o.b. orders for Valencias have been plentiful at $3 35 to $3 50 carload lots. The end of month brought a dull market, but shippers holding back fruit, preventing any material slump in prices. Early June prices for lemons are high. "Good 300 or 360's bringing at least $4 50, some specials as high as $6. The late market felt heavy importations of foreign fruit and prices declined. The yield for season is 22,000 carloads oranges, 4000 lemons. About 1000 carloads not yet marketed." Honey stocks light, market fairly firm. Definite figures of coming season's yield cannot yet be ascertained.

Honey stocks light, market fairly firm. Definite figures of coming season's yield cannot yet be ascertained but apricots generally predict shortage. Walnut prospects good. Growers think crop will exceed that of last year. The outlook for the oil producer is better than for years. The consumption of fuel oil is well up to production and as the demand is increasing a decied advance is expected on price for future contracts. Locally everything looks exceedingly well commercially. The jobbing trade is settling to normal conditions again. The large demand from the north for May following the San Francisco disaster, did not continue through June, much of that business being materially taken on by central California cities. However, a steady improved demand continues. Money loosened materially during month, volume of real estate trading which to certain extent had been checked, increased largely and bank clearances rose to normal figures. The value of building permits for month exceed $2,000,000. Outlook for good summer business is promising. Crops of all kinds are money makers. Failures for month 17, liabilities $71,427, assets $36,589. GREATLY REDUCED RATES TO NEWPORT BEACH To put Anaheim on an equal with Santa Ana the Southern.
