It is a very interesting fact that there never was such a wide demand for agricultural education, research and experiment as there is at the present time and never such a general disposition among civilized nations to generously provide for them. The United States as a nation is a leader in this movement, and in the volume of appropriations for this purpose, because not only the general government but all the states are generous toward them. In our own state until recently the greater emphasis was laid upon research and this seemed fitting in a state where natural conditions are so different from those in other climates and so little understood by people coming chiefly from the humid regions of the world. All this work has laid a broad foundation for present and future achievements in California agriculture. During the last few years however, there has arisen a sharp demand that the agricultural work of the university be extended and widened. Provision which has been made for more adequate outfit and equipment, with which the university could extend and improve its instruction in agricultural practice, has commended itself to all classes of our population and at the same time has given California a place among other enterprising states. viz: hunger of public popular and technical put into print accounts of agricultural science and to exalt them in patrons of the press altogether new in the erature. Increasing Number of Pupils.—Naturally we mind is being stirred influences its attitude sirability of agricul changes rapidly and for it, as a thing wo creases. It is very as this new demand cultural education available is incompa in every way than that of a century ago; yet than it was even a de this reason the new th pils, in the agricultur being served and sting and satisfied as was before. This is a gr the agricultural teach ages him to put forth fort to still further in of pupils, because he has something which make them better m but more successful p is the real reason wh tural colleges and sch confident, earnest and propaganda. The gen in agriculture, as inc makes easy to secure they are seeking out themselves. The fol the university be extended and widened. Provision which has been made for more adequate outfit and equipment, with which the university could extend and improve its instruction in agricultural practice, has commended itself to all classes of our population and at the same time has given California a place among other enterprising states which are doing notable things in the same line. What the States Are Doing.—The total value of additions to equipment of the land-grant colleges of the United States during the year ending June 30, 1905, was $3,501,515. The total number of these institutions is sixty-five, and their average addition to equipment was, therefore, a trifle less than $54,000. California's addition during that time was $389,874.77, or about seven times the average. The appropriation for the university farm and for the Southern California experiment station and pathological laboratory enabled California to set the pace in state provision for our class of institutions. This is the first time California has done so much for distinctively agricultural equipment. Increased Interest in Agricultural Education.—The generosity of the several states toward agricultural education, in adding over $3,500,000 to the value of equipment of agricultural colleges, has been brought about by a number of influences affecting the public mind. First, perhaps, is the general respect which the nation has for its agricultural industry as progressive confident and capable of great achievement. The farm products of the United States in 1904 reached the grand value of $5,000,000,000. Secretary Wilson says the farm products for two years are greater in value than all the gold mined in the world since Columbus discovered America, and the products for 1904 alone are three and one-half times the value of all the coal iron gold. has something which makes them better but more successful pity is the real reason why tural colleges and school confident, earnest and propaganda. The get in agriculture, as in makes easy to secure they are seeking out themselves. The follow the rate at which attend grant colleges is growing. PUPILS IN LAND-GRAN 1901 1902 1903 1904 1905 This indicates an average pupils of about 3000 per whole group of sixty-tions or an average amount of 45 for each one of University of California group which has far more average share of increase gain the college of agriculture secured much more than tion; in fact this gain of agriculture has been and last year's attendance students was four times in 1805. The actual rewows: 1895, 17; 1896, 1898, 32; 1899, 21; 1900, 1902, 61; 1903, 91; 1904, 1906, 123. Of course the teaching pils distinctively enrollslege of agriculture cons a part of our work because versity has an elective s enables students in other the university to elect o a part of the work toward grees.

GEORGE S. SMITH, of the estate of Louis Berella, 4, 1906. confident and capable of great achievement. The farm products of the United States in 1904 reached the grand value of $5,000,000,000. Secretary Wilson says the farm products for two years are greater in value than all the gold mined in the world since Columbus discovered America, and the products for 1904 alone are three and one-half times the value of all the coal, iron, gold, silver and other mineral products of the country. The second reason for the increased interest in agricultural education is found in the recognition of agriculture as an art which can be improved, advanced and made more profitable by the immediate application of new truth about natural materials and growth processes, as disclosed by scientific research. Almost all practices in all branches of agriculture are being rapidly changed and improved and made surer of desirable results. This is the contribution of the agricultural experiment stations which are now clearly exerting a strong influence on farm policy and operation, upon capital seeking loans, investments or trade, and upon the alert public mind which may have no direct interest in either farm operation or investment, but which is keen to perceive and eager to contemplate whatever is uplifting in its tendencies and effective in advancing national prosperity. The third agency for popularization of agricultural education is the resultant of the two foregoing forces, In comparing the progress by the different departments past two years it appears department of agriculture has the most significant gain. The number of regular agriculture in 1903-4 rose gain of 75 percent over 1902-4, the same period the unification in agriculture increased from 1584 to 2519, i.e., 65 percent greatest gain of any department must be remembered that number of students from other taking courses in agricultureceeds the number in agri-self. During the past year number of students in all classes, including the shop was 415, of whom 278, or were from other colleges of agriculture, i.e., student ing the full agricultural co. During the last half-year 123 distinctly agricultural a total enrollment of pupil cultural subjects of 735 only once those who register classes, the agricultur ment during the last half-prised 380 different individual counting pupils in short o Our agricultural class laboratories at Berkeley are almost to suffocation and Inz: hunger of publishers of both popular and technical literature to get into print accounts of all kinds of agricultural science and practice led to exalt them in the eyes of all critics of the press. This is a thing together new in the history of literature. Increasing Number of Agricultural Repubs.—Naturally while the public land is being stirred by such potent influences its attitude toward the deprivation of agricultural education changes rapidly and the application it, as a thing worth having, increases. It is very fortunate that, this new demand arises, the agricultural education which is now available is incomparatively better every way than that of a quarter a century ago; yes, vastly better than it was even a decade ago. For this reason the new thousands of pupils, in the agricultural colleges, are being served and stimulated, helped and satisfied as was never possible before. This is a great delight to agricultural teacher and encourages him to put forth aggressive efforts to still further increase his roll pupils, because he feels that he something which will not only make them better men and women, more successful producers. This real reason why the agricultural colleges and schools are now so evident, earnest and active in their aganda. The general interest agriculture, as indicated above, is easy to secure pupils, in fact they are seeking out the way for themselves. The following shows often placed in adjacent hallways within reach of the voice of the lecturers. Such a demand is inspiring our instructors to all kinds of overexertion, for the popularity of the work is very pleasing. [To be continued.] Mr. Kroeger Gives His Views EDITOR GAZETTE—We are all of us very enthusiastic about paving our principal streets; but let us go at it in the right way, and follow the example of Santa Ana, which has the best paved streets in Southern California. They constructed a sewer first, and afterward paved the streets. Let us do the same. It would be sheer foolishness to pave the streets first and afterward construct a sewer and make sewer connections; it would be too costly, and a sewer we MUST have. You will recollect that about twelve or fifteen years ago the executive committee of the Order of Odd Fellows were looking for a location for an Old Odd Fellows home. We Odd Fellows invited them here and offered the fine Hotel del Campo with 64 rooms, and 20 acres of land with 16 acres of full-grown walnut trees on it which I owned. It was the best offer they had; but they declined it for two very important reasons. First—We had no sewers, and second, we had no protection from the river. Some years afterward the Battle Creek Sanitarium people examined our Hotel del Campo, with the same result; "we had no sewer." If we want to go ahead, we must have sewerage to keep up the health of our city, and cannot expect any important industrial or hotel building established here without it. But a sewer system will cost $40,000; how to get that is beyond my calculation. something which will not only be them better men and women, more successful producers. This is the real reason why the agricultural colleges and schools are now so evident, earnest and active in their aganda. The general interest agriculture, as indicated above, is easy to secure pupils, in fact we are seeking out the way for ourselves. The following shows rate at which attendance at land-colleges is growing: PILLS IN LAND-GRANT COLLEGES: 42,000 46,699 52,489 56,225 53,518 This indicates an average gain in sales of about 3000 per year for the group of sixty-five institutes or an average annual increase for each one of them. The diversity of California is one of a so which has far more than its large share of increase and in this college of agriculture has much more than its proportion fact this gain of the college agriculture has been continuous last year's attendance of regular students was four times as large as 15. The actual record is as follows: 1895, 17; 1896, 15; 1897, 21; 1892, 21; 1900, 31; 1901, 42; 1901, 91; 1904, 102; 1905, 106; 123. Course the teaching of 123 distinctively enrolled in the college agriculture constitutes only of our work because the university has an elective system which students in other colleges of university to elect our courses as of the work toward their decemning this phase of our work went Wheeler in his last pub-report, 1902-4, says: comparing the progress made different departments in the two years it appears that the amount of agriculture has made We had no sewers, and second, we had no protection from the river. Some years afterward the Battle Creek Sanitarium people examined our Hotel del Campo, with the same result: "we had no sewer." If we want to go ahead, we must have sewerage to keep up the health of our city, and cannot expect any important industrial or hotel building established here without it. But a sewer system will cost $40,000; how to get that is beyond my calculation. I had good hopes to defeat the bonds for electric light at our last bond election, as we can have all the electric light we need without going into the bond business, but were beaten. Now we are tied hand and foot and must get along without making necessary improvements. Just look at Oxnard—a few years in existence. It has a complete sewer system; and most all principal cities in Southern California have their sewer system, and our city has to follow suit. River protection also is very necessary, or we will see in the next very wet winter, water running through the streets of Anaheim. We have seen that before several times. H. KROEGER.

That an investment of $700 in beach property made in 1903 is now priced at $100,000 was made plain a few days ago when a complaint was filed by Blanche L. Dolph of Scranton, Pa., against Priestly Hall of Riverside, Horace J. Pullen of Los Angeles, and the First National bank of Santa Ana. Recently Hall deeded 153 acres of picturesque beach near the mouth of Alliso canyon, down the coast two miles from Laguna Beach, to Pullen, who gave in return six promissory notes aggregating $100,- University to elect our courses as a result of the work toward their decerning this phase of our work sent Wheeler in his last pubreport, 1902-4, says: Comparing the progress made in different departments in the two years it appears that the department of agriculture has made most significant development. Number of regular students of culture in 1903-4 represents a 75 percent over 1901-2. For the period the units of regission in agriculture increased from 2519, i.e., 65 percent, the gain of any department. It remembered that the numstudents from other colleges courses in agriculture far exceed the number in agriculture it. During the past year the total number of students in agricultural courses including the short courses, of whom 278, or 66 percent from other colleges than that culture, i.e., students not takfull agricultural course." During the last half-year we had directly agricultural pupils, but enrollment of pupils in agritic subjects of 735. Counting once those who register in sevlesses, the agricultural enrolluring the last half-year combined 80 different individuals—not pupils in short courses. Agricultural classrooms and barries at Berkeley are crowded to suffocation and seats are property made in 1903 is now priced at $100,000 was made plain a few days ago when a complaint was filed by Blanche L. Dolph of Scranton, Pa., against Priestly Hall of Riverside, Horace J. Pullen of Los Angeles, and the First National bank of Santa Ana. Recently Hall deeded 153 acres of picturesque beach near the mouth of Aliso canyon, down the coast two miles from Laguna Beach, to Pullen, who gave in return six promissory notes aggregating $100,-000. The complaint filed by Attorney W. W. Butler of Los Angeles is to the effect that in April, 1903, the land was placed in Hall's name. According to an agreement, Blanche L. Dolph furnished the purchase price of $700, Hall to have control of the property until it was sold, at which time the $700 was to be returned to the silent partner and the remainder divided between Hall and that partner. It is now claimed that Pullen has the property and did not pay a cent for it. The complaint states that Blanche L. Dolph is entitled to a half interest and the court is asked to declare that Pullen holds half of the 153 acres of seashore in trust for her. The bank is concerned only in that it has the notes from Pullen for collection. There are 11,000 acres of beans planted this year on lands leased by growers from the Irvine ranch company. This is a crop that has developed wonderfully in this county in the last four or five years. These beans are planted on land that never before was made to produce anything but barley. Of the 11,000 acres that are out, 1500 acres are Buckeyes and 500 acres are small white beans. The remainder of the acreage is planted to lima beans. The harvesting will commence this week, when a few early Buckeyes will be cut. The crop will sell for over $100,000.
