ENEMIES OF THE FARMER Gophers, Rabbit and Field Mice are Destructive Three groups of North American mammals are generally recognized as enemies of the fruit grower and forester. These are pocket gophers, rabbits and short-tailed field mice. Each of these does enormous damage, often amounting to thousands of dollars upon a single plantation. In some localities they make the profits from orcharding exceedingly uncertain. Of the three, pocket gophers inflict losses fully as great as those caused by either rabbits or field mice; and since they work underground, the injury is concealed, often until it is too late for protective measures. Pocket gophers, locally known also as pouched rats, salamanders, tuzas, or merely gophers, inhabit more than half the entire territory of the United States outside of Alaska and the island possessions. They occur throughout the greater part of almost every state west of the Mississippi, and east of that river in the greater part of Illinois, southern Wisconsin, and large areas in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama. Outside the United States they inhabit northwest Canada northward to Winnipeg and most of the Saskatchewan valley. They are abundant in many parts of Mexico, whence their range extends southerly to Costa Rica. Pocket gophers live almost entirely within the subterranean tunnels which they excavate, and are seldom seen except when bringing fresh soil to the surface. The often-repeated statement that they are strictly nocturnal is untrue. They are most active in morning and early evening, but when the weather is cool and not too upward and outward to the surface nearly at right angles to the main tunnel. Each load of soil pushed up and over the mound makes it higher and wider. The double line of hillocks may be traced to that last made which is generally small and composed of fresh, moist soil. The lateral leading to this latest mound is not usually packed solid with soil, but is either left open temporarily or loosely filled. Open laterals are sometimes used as exists through which the gopher comes to secure food or to take observations. A gopher which in tunneling comes to a tree root attacks and eats clear through it. If the root is relished it is followed and eaten close up to the tree trunk. Then another root is destroyed, and so on until the entire root system is gnawed away, wood and bark alike, leaving the trunk loose in the ground. Large trees are sometimes entirely girdled just below the ground, the gopher cutting deep into the wood below the bark. This kills the tree as certainly as if its root system were destroyed. AND THE NEXT DAY IT SNOWED She entered the room hastily. He was awaiting her. "I was afraid you would be thinking I had forgotten," she said. "No," he responded, calmly, in the tone of one who is master of himself. "An engagement is an engagement with me." She was a beautiful girl. A wealth of chestnut hair rippled below the wide brim of her bonnet. Her close fitting tailored gown yielded to every movement of her supple form. He was a bit above the average height, a clean-cut, square-chinned chap, whose every expression bespoke self-reliance. As he looked at her his glance was Pocket gophers live almost entirely within the subterranean tunnels which they excavate, and are seldom seen except when bringing fresh soil to the surface. The often-repeated statement that they are strictly nocturnal is untrue. They are most active in morning and early evening, but when the weather is cool and not too dry they work from dawn to sunset and probably continue during much of the night. They sometimes burrow surprising distances within twenty-four hours, as is evidenced by the number of fresh mounds of earth are thrown out in that time. In hot, dry weather they do little digging. Pocket gophers usually inhabit the loose alluvial soils, seldom those that are hard or clayey. Originally they subsisted on roots and stems of native plants, but they immediately turned their attention to the cultivated plants introduced by the settler, including succulent garden vegetables, alfalfa and clover; they are indebted to the settler also for the destruction of many of their natural enemies and for loosening the soil by tillage. Thus the gopher's environment is greatly improved, and, except where due vigilance has been exercised, these pests have multiplied and greatly extended their range in cultivated land. Pocket gophers do harm in many ways. They eat hay and pasture and cover grass with earth. They cause heavy loss of hay by preventing a close mowing. Their burrows admit surface water and on sloping ground lead to the washing of deep gullies. Their tunnels in dams and levees cause many costly breaks. They ruin gardens and injure many field crops. Besides all this, and probably as important, is the damage they do to the fruit and other trees. While the pocket gopher no doubt exercises choice in its diet, it injures nearly all common kinds of the fruit trees. It is said that on some parts of the Pacific coast gophers do not injure the peach, but probably this is because better-liked trees are available. It is certain that the gopher of the Mississippi valley often damages the peach severely. Dr. A. K. Fisher of the Biological survey says that in Southern California he observed that the roots of the fig tree seem to be most subject to attack of gophers and that those of the apricot appear to stand next in favor.

Orange, lemon, almond, apple, pear and all other orchard trees of the region, except the peach, are injured by the animals. In regions inhabited by gophers the selection of an orchard site free of them is often impossible. The soil best suited for trees is most likely to be infested by gophers. Frequently the orchardist, in order to have the soil in proper condition for tree planting, first raises and turns down crops of alfalfa, clover or cowpeas. Sometimes he grows preliminary crops of sweet potatoes or sugarbeets. As any of these crops is likely to attract pocket gophers to the place and increase the danger to trees subsequently planted there, the fruit grower will find it all the more necessary to rid the land of the pests before planting his orchard. Fruit trees often are badly injured before their owner is aware of the presence of the animals. Harry Cummings of Heppner, Oreg., writes that one spring, while he was absent a week, gophers destroyed 40 of his choice fruit trees. Although evidences of the presence of gophers are usually unmistakable to the experienced eye, it sometimes takes unusual vigilance to discover them, especially among tall grass, weeds or other undergrowth. The mounds of soil show plainly the general direction of the main tunnel. Each mound is at the extremity of a short lateral dug What are you studying about? What have you decided to do? "I think I'll have to fill two of your teeth," he said, quietly. "The rest are all right. You have taken better care of them than most women do." In the old days, when oral examinations of lawyers were still the thing, an examining board was pommelling an applicant with questions from Blackstone, Kent and other legal lights. "I didn't study anything about these fellows," complained the applicant."What did you study?" asked one of the judges. "I studied the statutes of the state," he replied. "I studied them hard. Ask me a question about them, and I'll show you. That is where I got my legal knowledge." "My young friend," said one austere judge on the examining board "'you had better be very careful, for some day the legislature might meet and repeal everything you know." When a prominent lawyer left his home at noon, his wife informed him she was to give a 5 o'clock tea, and exacted a promise that he would assist in receiving the guests. The attorney went to his club, where he drank numerous Scotch highballs. Suddenly he thought of the 5 o'clock tea. It was then 5:15 and an excuse came to him like an inspiration. Scrawling the following note he sent it by messenger: "Dear Fannie: I am sorry to disappoint you, but I have been taken unexpectedly drunk." Union Brewing Company is selling bottled beer at 90 cents per dozen. ANAHEIM GAZETTE WOMEN NEARING BALLOT Elections Demonstrate Inclination to Give Them Suffrage Results of recent elections give impetus to the cause of woman's suffrage. Though the voters of Oregon decided they would continue to manage the affairs of state without the aid of women, the voters in Washington let down the bars, admitting women to full citizenship on an equality with men. It was the third time Oregon has voted down woman's suffrage. Suffrage advocates, however, refuse to regard it as a case of "three times and out." Rather, they say, will it be a case of "three times and in," for they are confident that next time the question is submitted the result will be different. With women voting in Idaho, on the one side, and in Washington, on the other side, the suffragists believe the male population of Oregon will not be able to withstand the pressure. Though the question of woman suffrage was not a direct issue in Illinois, women took more than usual interest in the election. Illinois has been a storm center for more than a year in the campaign for "votes for women." Women speakers have toured the state in automobiles, placing the merits of their cause before the voters. Were the question of giving women the franchise submitted to the voters today in Illinois there is but little doubt it would carry. That is the chief reason why the women were so interested in the proposition of the initiative and referendum, which was before the voters for an adisvory vote at the recent election. The question of the initiative and referendum was submitted to the voters in the form of an instruction to the legislature to amend the constitution. LED DOUBLE LIVES Notable Rogues Who Long Imposed on Society It is alleged that Herr May, the European philanthropist and author, recently proved to have been a burglar and bandit in early life, in addition to the improving literature of which he was the acknowledged author, also published anonymously a series of cheap and detrimental fiction in which his experience as a bandit was utilized. In other respects he appears to have wholly forsaken his wicked ways If this be so, and it would be kinder to give him the benefit of any doubt, the case only bears a part resemblance to that of the celebrated Charles Peace. That now notorious burglar was actively practising his real profession when he was known to the sedate society of Peckham as a well-do and cultured gentleman of impeccable antecedents. Peace was a past master in the arts of imposture and had the making of a brigand in him. If he ever got the chance of following the more adventurous and perhaps more picturesque branches of crime.

Were the question of giving women the franchise submitted to the voters today in Illinois there is but little doubt it would carry. That is the chief reason why the women were so interested in the proposition of the initiative and referendum, which was before the voters for an adisvory vote at the recent election. The question of the initiative and referendum was submitted to the voters in the form of an instruction to the legislature to amend the constitution so as to permit the people to initiate legislation on a petition of 8 per cent of the voters and to pass on all measures of public interest passed by the legislature on a petition of 5 per cent of the electors. The proposition was adopted by an overwhelming majority and the woman suffrage advocates say that if the legislature carries out the instruction of the people and gives the state the initiative and referendum one of the first measures to be initiated by petition will be the question of woman's suffrage. Within the past few weeks the woman's suffrage party of Illinois has been incorporated. Ten of the thirty-five wards in Chicago have been organized by the women and a state central committee, composed of the chairman of each of the ward clubs, has been launched. A branch of the party has been organized in Iroquois county, and nine other counties in the state are ready to fall in line. The woman organizers assert that within the next three months they will have an organization in each of the 102 counties in the state, and force recognition of their cause. The cause of woman's suffrage has made wonderful strides since the first woman's rights convention was held in Seneca Falls, N. Y., in 1848. At that convention Elizabeth Cady Stanton had to fight to obtain the adoption of a resolution demanding votes for women. Step by step since that time the women have forced their claims upon the attention of the law makers, until today thirty states give women the right to vote on certain questions, and in five states, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho and Washington, they have equal rights with men.

Another criminal who managed to impose on his friends and acquaintances was Thomas Wainewright, who was certainly a forger and probably a poisoner, but who had been a fashionable writer and critic, and was the friend of Charles Lamb, Talfourd and De Quincey. "The kind, light-hearted Wainewright," as Ella called him, was a thorough going and heartless scoundrel, and the offenses for which he was sentenced to transportation for life were only incidents in a long career of wrongdoing. Whether he really confessed that he poisoned the unfortunate Miss Abercromby, urging in extension that she had very thick ankles, may be doubted, but quite enough has been proved to his discredit. At the same time it is improbable that he would ever, like Herr Karl May, have returned to respectability, even if the opportunity had been allowed him. Another and less known man of letters who combined literature with crime was George Barrington, transported to Botany Bay for pocketpicking in 1790. He did recover his character, became high constable of Paramatta, and was much thought of in official circles for his good conduct. His literary fame rests mainly on the often quoted description of the true patriots—"Be it understood, we left our country for our country's good."

"Crops are excellent everywhere," Wilson says. "As a result, prices of meat, and therefore other foodstuffs, are sure to decrease. The average man will soon be able to regain his financial breath."

And presently, as you come nearer, you hear the deep roaring of lions and tigers, and learn that this is the recently opened Hagenbeck wild beast farm, a new departure in practical zoology. Here may be seen and studied fierce creatures of the jungle enjoying a kind of half liberty, no longer confined in small cages, but allowed to move about freely in large, rock-bound spaces that admirably represent the dens and caverns of their native wilds. The caverns are built in rows of hills that rise in precipitous crags to heights of a hundred feet or more, and spread to a considerable width at their bases. Against the verdure of the park they stand out boldly, their sides fashioned roughly into caverns or inclosures for lions, tigers, bears, buffaloes, deer, mountain goat, camels, antelopes, etc., their depths pierced by doors and passages for attendants and spectators. Needless to say, these hills are made of artificial rock, but so cleverly has the work been done, and so skillfully have the surfaces been marked and veined and colored (by the use of various cements), that a geologist himself might be deceived; and in the manner of hardness and durability this artificial rock is in no way inferior to the natural product. Has some one told you that all the good things in life have been gobbled up by someone else? There are a great many stiff-necked pessimists going around the country preaching that doctrine, but don't believe a word they say. There are opportunities today for the man or woman who is ready to take advantage of them. The chances for those who are willing to put their soul into the work they are following are far better than ever before. Here is an illustration: The U. S. Civil Service Commission is holding a special examination in all the leading cities in the country in December for Stenographers and Typewriters. The reason for this special examination is simply this: that they have not been able to get a sufficient number of eligibles from the regular examinations which are held twice a year. Now that condition of affairs does not speak very well for the ambitions of "Young America." These places pay from $900 to $1,200 a year, and offer opportunities for rapid advancement. Why don't you prepare yourself for such a place? There is nothing to hinder but yourself. We can prepare you to pass an examination and just as soon as you pass the examination you are sure of an appointment. By enrolling now you can be ready for the spring examination, but if you wait until after the first of the year there will not be time enough. Write to us immediately if you are interested and let us tell you about this line of work. $75 pays for the complete course, including tuition, books, stationery and coaching for the examinations mentioned above.
