Growing English Walnuts (Continued from last week) Two Improved Varieties.—Judge Lieb of San Jose, who has made a special study of the walnut in every condition for several years, has obtained samples and definite particulars from many American and foreign growers, and with a careful personal inspection of the best orchards of this state, has, after the most severe tests, concluded that for growing in northern and central California, but two varieties need be considered—the Franquette and Santa Rosa. Taken point by point, in comparison with all others now known, they appear to stand at the head for general culture here. The Franquette is an old, well-known French walnut, grown only by grafting. The Santa Rosa, so far, has been grown mostly as seedlings, and, even grown in this way, has proved to be all that could be desired in early ripening, early bearing, productiveness and quality; but among these seedlings are found some trees which are most remarkably early and constantly productive of astounding crops of nuts of most perfect form, color and quality. Some of the best of these will, in my opinion, supplant the Franquette, for though the Franquette blooms later than the Santa Rosa, and produces a fair crop each season almost without fail, but rarely a full one, yet in a series of years the Santa Rosa generally will outyield it two ductive of astounding crops of nuts of most perfect form, color and quality. Some of the best of these will, in my opinion, supplant the Franquette, for though the Franquette blooms later than the Santa Rosa, and produces a fair crop each season almost without fail, but rarely a full one, yet in a series of years the Santa Rosa generally will outyield it two to one, besides being harvested with much less care and expense, ripening, as they do, two to four weeks earlier when the air is clear and the ground dry. The greatest fault of the Santa Rosa is their tendency to start early in the spring. The greatest fault with the Franquettes for growing in this part of the state is their late ripening, causing much care and expense in harvesting and curing. The size, appearance and quality of the nuts of either are all that can be desired, though the Santa Rosa generally have a whiter shell, and the husk does not require removal by hand, as is the case with a large part of the crop of Franquettes. To those who have had experience in this kind of work on a rainy day, nothing more need be said. The Franquettes seem to be adapted to some of the larger interior valleys. Grafting on Native Stock.—In all cases the best results will be obtained by grafting on our native California black walnut or some of its hybrids. No one in Central and northern California who grows Royal walnuts on their own roots need expect to be able to compete with those who grow them on the native black walnut roots. For when grown on these roots the trees will be uniformly larger and longer-lived, and will hardly be affected by blight and other diseases, and do and will bear from two to four time as many nuts, which will be of larger size and of much butter quality. These are facts, not theories, and walnut growers should take heed. How to Start an Orchard.—Al- neglected if you would have a nut grove on a safe foundation. There are thousands of black walnut trees in northern central California, in fields, parks and roadsides, which, if grafted the same or some of the still fresh improved Santa Rosa walnuts yield even larger crops and nuts than this tree is yielding. Plant the Walnut.—When plant another tree, why not put walnut? Then, besides sending shade and leaves, you may perennial supply of nuts, the proved kinds of which furnish most delicious, nutritious and ful food which has ever been made. The oldfashioned hit-or-miss which we used to purchase at grocery store, were generally rich, irregular mixture in form and color, with meats of varying grees of unsoundness, bitter, rancid, but, better yet, with no at all; from these early men and the usual accompanying effects, nuts have not been very useful food for regular use until when good ones at a moderate can generally, but not always purchased at all first-class stores. The consumption of nuts is probably increasing among civilizations today faster than that of other food, and California keep up with this increasing mand and make the increase more rapid by producing more uniform good quality, which walnut roots. For when grown on these roots the trees will be uniformly larger and longer-lived, and will hardly be affected by blight and other diseases, and do and will bear from two to four time as many nuts, which will be of larger size and of much butter quality. These are facts, not theories, and walnut growers should take heed. How to Start an Orchard.—Although not popular among nursery-men, yet the best way to produce a paying orchard is to plant the nuts from some vigorous black walnut tree, three or four in each place where the tree is to stand. At the end of the first summer remove all but the strongest grower; cultivate the ground well; any hoed crop may be grown among them. Let the trees grow as they will for three to six years, until they have formed their natural, vigorous system of roots, then graft to the best variety extant which thrives in your locality, and, if on deep, well-drained land, you will at once have a grove of walnuts which will pay at present or even very much lower prices, a most princely income on your investment. By grafting in the nursery, or before the native tree has had time to produce its own system of roots by its own rapid-growing, leafy top, you have gained little or nothing over planting trees on their own roots for the foliage of any tree governs the size, extent and form of the root system. Take heed, as these are facts, not fancies, and are not to be The consumption of nuts is slowly increasing among civilizations today faster than that of other food, and California can keep up with this increasing mand and make the increase more rapid by producing more uniform good quality, which here be done without extra effort and with an increase in the price and a rapid and permanent increase in the wealth of ourselves and neighbors. I have not mentioned other aspects as your time and mine allow me a glance at this one nut. The monad and pecan come next in importance, followed by a series of others which will be extended grown, as their culture is better understood. Grand Future Possibilities. Fornia has made wonderful progress in the production of fruits and of almost everything else its newer horticultural possessions are even more grand, most known and undeveloped. We have imagined 25 years ago that important places which the fig, ange, the vine and other fruit nuts, as well as alfalfa, winter tables, stock and poultry raise hold? And who can prophecy future place of California as source of the choicest food products of the world? This paper was prepared forvid and persistent request.

The first Jewish sermon which was preached in America and has been published was delivered in the Newport synagogue on May 28, 1773, by Rabbi Hayyim Isaac Carregal. This was deliveried in Spanish and was translated into English. Carregal was a most interesting personality. He appears to have come from Palestine and was on terms of intimacy with Ezra Stiles, the president of Yale college. The first Jewish club in America was formed in 1761 at Newport, with a membership limited to nine persons. Just before the outbreak of the Revolutionary war the Jewish population of Newport must have numbered nearly 1,000 souls. The war dispersed the community, and it never regained its importance. The Jews, for the most part, espoused the colonial cause and lost the greater part of their property when the town was captured by the British. A few returned to the city after the war, and in 1790 the congregation presented an address to Washington on the occasion of his visit to the city. Abraham Tóuro bequeathed a fund to the city of Newport to maintain the synagogue as well as the cemetery. This fund is still in existence, though no representatives of the original families now live in the city.—Jewish Encyclopedia. New York's Fishermen. Every day through the spring and summer and autumn and almost every day in winter a boat leaves one of the East river piers bound for the deep sea fishing banks, says Bertha H. Smith in Four Track News. Every passenger on board is of that true democracy, the New York's Fishermen. Every day through the spring and summer and autumn and almost every day in winter a boat leaves one of the East river piers bound for the deep sea fishing banks, says Bertha H. Smith in Four Track News. Every passenger on board is of that true democracy, the democracy of the rod and reel. Not death itself is more of a common leaver than the fishing rod, and who crosses the gangplank of this fishing steamboat leaves class distinction behind. The professional man fleeing business for a day, the clerk with a holiday on his hands, the mechanic thrown into idleness by a strike, the invalid who finds the city irksome and longs for a sniff of the sea, old men, young boys and all ages and stages of mankind between may be seen in the stream of people that dribbles along the pier while the sun is yet dodging behind the Brooklyn housetops. The man who would go deep sea fishing must be up betimes, for it is a good three hours' run to the fishing banks.
