State Inspector Dowling the "Vine disease expert," has been looking over the vineyards of the Cajon Valley in San Diego county, and reports the scare of the disease as manifested last year was altogether uncalled for.

The Santa Barbara pampas plume crop this year is estimated at 1,000,000. The demand for the past two years has been good, but the prices have never been so high as at the beginning of the industry—$200 for 1000. The decrease in price was gradual until 1886, when sales were slow at $30 per 1000. Some of the growers did not harvest their crops that year, and destroyed their plants. In the fall of 1887 plumes were in demand at $40 per 1000, and in 1888 they were scarce at $50 and $60 per 1000, in 1889 prices were good. The acreage has considerably increased, but fair prices have been offered for this season's crop.
