THURSDAY...JANUARY 2, 1896.
Only once in ten years has so little rain fallen to date as during the present season. Four years ago, during the winter of 1891-92, the precipitation, according to the rain gauge that has been kept uninterruptedly at Mr. Dickel's establishment for a time whereof the memory of the oldest inhabitant runeth not to the contrary, amounted to 1.29 inches, yet we had 7.78 inches of rainfall that season, an inch and a hundredth more than the season of '93-94, when 5.04 inches fell up to the beginning of the year, and 6.77 altogether for the season. This year we have had 1.82 inches at New Year's, while last year we had 11.71 inches to date, the largest with one exception in ten years, and a total of 16.77 for last season. In the winter of '94-95 the precipitation to New Year's was 6.77 inches, and for the season, 7.08; during '93-94 we had 5.04 to the first of the year and 6.77 for the season. The year '92-93 was the wettest in years, the precipitation up to New Year's day being 8.65 inches and for the season 16.41. The year before showed the low water mark, with only 1.29 to New Year's day, but we had 7.78 inches for the season. In '90-91 we had 3.04 inches of rainfall to the beginning of the year, and 15.29 for the season. In '89-90 we had no less than 13.82 inches to the first of the year, and 19.56 for the season; in '88-89, 4.34 to January 1st and 15.51 for the season; in '87-88, 17.69 to the first of the year, and 14.91 for the season; in '86-87, 3.76 to January 1st, and 7.69 for the season.
Going back a few years farther we find that in the winter of '85-86 we had 4.26 inches of rainfall to the first of the year and 7.69 for the season, while the year before we had 3.99 to January 11th, and 11.85 for the season. The winter of '84 found us on Januari 14th with 2.84 inches of rain, yet the precipitation that followed that winter was the heaviest in the history of the country—always excepting the flood of 1862, when the waters of the river washed their way into town and sent the early Pioneers to high ground for safety. The total rainfall for the season of '84 was 23.82 inches. The year before had been rather dry—we had only 1.08 inches to the first of the year, the lowest precipitation in our history, and 5.17 for the season. We had had little rain to the first of the year in '85, the precipitation being 1.22 to New Year's and for the season 7.05. To January 1st in '81 we had 5.60 inches, and for the season inside the track can only be done by the property owners along the car line! As it has also been discovered that the company's franchise is perpetual, whether they run cars over the line or not, we presume the only way out of the affair is to have the property owners pave the street, and then let the street cars resume traffic. Meantime Anaheim remains the only city in the county to have a street-car service, and Bundy is coming to be a trick bicyclist.
It's an ill wind that blows nobody good. As if it were not enough for the orange growers of Southern California that the freeze in Florida had given them absolutely the freedom of the market for their fruit, the necessity for replenishing the Treasury at Washington has resulted in the passage of a new tariff bill in the House placing an additional duty on citrus fruits. We have not the full text of the bill before us, but the tenor of the telegrams that have come from Washington leaves little room for doubting that Congressman Beware' bill to amend the duty on California products has been incorpored into the new tariff bill. This bill makes a horizontal increase in the tariff covering all California fruits and nuts, and raises the duty on oranges, lemons and limes, in packages, to 15 cents per ounce foot of capacity; in bulk, to $2 per 1000. This is estimated to be about thirty cents per box, a much more satisfactory tariff protection than the present ad valorem makeshift. Incidentally we might say the duty on walnuts, unabellied, has been raised to three cents per pound; sheffled; to five cents per pound. As we write, on Monday morning, the bill has not been reported from the Senate, but that it will pass that August body there is little room to doubt, and undoubtedly the President will sign it. The bill aims as increasing the revenue, the increase being estimated at $40,000,000 yearly, and is to continue in effect for two and a half years.
BEET SUGAR CULTURE.
SENATOR PERKINS INTRODUCES A BILL FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE SUGAR INTERESTS—WILL THE BOUNTY BE RESTORED?
WASHINGTON (D.C.), Dec. 31.-The sugar interest of California has suffered so much under the new tariff law that an effort is to be made by Senator Perkins to increase the protection duty. The best sugar culture of this State will be fully explained by him and its extent and possibilities pointed out. The members of Congress as a general thing do not know much about sugar beets, and are inclined to think that their cultivation is of nature of garden truck forming, but the rapid growth and wide expansion of trees which had to be deferred owing to no water for irrigation. In the rays of June and July the Zanjieres were used to complete runs on the 16th and 3rd each month; by an examination of these
We learn that, preceding the Christmas sales of oranges in the East, thirty carloads of green fruit shipped from Riverside by Earl, had been rejected by the Eastern dealers, whose holiday trade was said to have been absolutely ruined by these green oranges, and as many more have been turned down since then. How long can our friend Capt. Earl stand this sort of business; or, to state it in another way, insamach as he will undoubtedly be able to "pull out" on his car earnings, how long will the Riverside folly out of the exchANGE permit themselves to be trafficked upon by this man to the undoing of their neighbors associated for their own protection? How is it that, at the home of our friend Glambert, we hold up the torch of the exchange movement so that the growers could see the folly of consigning as well as their way out of it—how is it that at Riverside, the very home of the co-operative spirit, Earl gets the bulk of this fruit to send to market? To the credit of our Orange county growers, be it said that not a car of green fruit has been shipped East from here to cripple the market. Cannot these River-siders see that they are being used for the demoralization of the market? Or is the question of their boasted intelligence yet open? But it is an ill wind that blows nobody good. An unseen hand holds the destiny of the associated growers straggling for the protection of their homes, and guildes them. Another year and Capt. Earl's name will be Dennis!
Quite a scarce was created on Saturday by the receipt of telegraphic advice from San Francisco to the effect that the signal service predicted a killing frost on Sunday night, and that it would be necessary to protect citrus fruits in exposed places:
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 28. The bulletin issued by the weather bureau this morning is as follows: A moderate cold wave will extend southward over Nevada and Utah to-night, causing zero temperatures throughout a large portion of that region. While cold will overhorn California to tonight and Sunday, snow will cause killing frosts in Northern California to-night and freezing weather Sunday night throughout the interior of the entire State. This will probably be the coldest weather thus far this season in California. It will probably be necessary to protect citrus fruits from injury by frost Sunday night.
The prevalence of a Santa Ana wind on Saturday afternoon dispelled any fears that might have been entertained as to frost that night, for we never have any frost when it blows. The wind quieted down at dark,
SENATOR PERKINS INTRODUCES A BILL FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE SUGAR INTERESTS—WILL THE BOUNTY BE RESTORED?
WASHINGTON (D. C.), Dec. 31.—The sugar interest of California has suffered so much under the new tariff law that an effort to be made by Senator Perkins to increase the protection duty. The best sugar culture of this State will be fully explained by him and its extent and possibilities painted out. The members of Congress as a general thing do not know much about sugar beets, and are inclined to think that their cultivation isof the nature of garden truck farming, but the rapid growth and wide expansion of the industry under the favoring conditions of the old tariff will be fully set forth by Senator Perkins, and an effort made to convince Congress that it can be made a leading industry of the United States. The Senator is in communication with the leading sugar man of the Coast and is in hearty sympathy with them in their desire to develop an industry which was so promising until the blight of the Wilhelm bill fell upon it. In the Senate to-day he introduced the following resolution:
Whereas, the conditions of the soil and the climate in the United States are so peculiarly favorable to the growth of the sugar beet and sugar cane that the manufacturer of sugar should be the most important industry of the country; and, whereas, under the operations of the tariff law of 1890 the sugar industry was much encouraged and promoted, to the benefit not only of persons directly interested in the industry but all the people of the United States; and whereas, the operation of such a law was fast making the manufacture of sugar the most important industry of the country, causing vast tracts of land to be put under cultivation and affording employment to many thousands of persons in field and manufactory; and, wherein, one effect of the changes made by the tariff law of 1894 has been to stop the development of this great industry, to discourage the planting of large trees by reducing the price of new material, to take away the means of livelihood from farmers and farm laborers who had been employed therein; and, whereas, there is now pending before the Finance Committee of the Senate a bill to increase the revenue by laying additional duties on a large number of articles, but not on sugar; therefore, be it
"Resolved, that the Committees on Finance be and is hereby instructed to report an amendment to the said revenue bill providing for an additional duty on raw sugar equal to the proposed increase on these articles enumerated in said bill."
The resolution was objected to by Senator Berry of Arkansas and went over under the rules. The question will be taken up by Senator Perkins later, a rigorous effort will be made to secure some action that will benefit California.
PILING UP THE PUBLIC DEBT.
DEMOCRATS ARE SORE OVER THE PROSPECT OF ANOTHER BOND SALE—CLEVELAND AND THE PRESIDENCY.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.—Democrats are very sure over the prospect of another issue of long-time high-priced bonds, as they thoroughly realize that with the notice of the new loan will vanish any possible hope of Democratic success for years to come.
Members of both the Senate and House on the Democratic side are exceedingly restless over the financial situation, and in private conversation as freely and forebly denounce the imbecile policy of the Administration as do The Republicans. Since the proposed issue of bonds has been accepted as a fact, within two or three days, there has been a good deal of talking about Mr. Cleveland fourth nomination. The Democrat
We will admit that we have abundance of water which was permitted run to waste in the river up to May, while through the intermangement Directors the ditches were dry. Directors may throw this fault on their postintendent, and the Superintendent Zanjero, but we irrigators hold their responsibility for a dry district during months of March, April and the majorsion of May, while there was good treatment for sale of water in this north of the sandwich, where the land era had contemplated planting thousand trees which had to be deferred owing no water for irrigation. In the month of June and July the Zanjero were superseded to complete runs on the 15th and 23 each month; by an examination of their jersey reports we will find that they were able to complete runs on stated date were compelled to lapse for a week days.
If the water was allowed to run too far in the sandwash as stated by our appraisal it was in the last few days of August; mercially all things are governed by supply and demand; hence if we water had been placed at a reasonable demand would have been greater than probability is that the water would all been turned onto one crochard, but was we irrigators knew that on the September price of water would do 20 cents per hour; therefore we must our irrigation for a few days to get a age of reduction which would continue few days. We feel that if we were more water per share, and at a more able price, there would be no worry water running to waste, especially in years when the demand will be so greater owing to the average of your chards not yet in bearing, which require one-half the irrigation that other crochards require; as a proof of this statement we would be pleased to return to the young orchard of Jan. East. Required but three irrigations this winter whilethe Semi-tropic orchard justifiesthe avenue is being prepared for its firing.
We will note that in trifecty young orchard only about two-thirds land is flooded, while the old orchard truly flooded, thus we see when an comes to maturity, more frequent irrigation is required and about one-third more at each time of irrigation. It will from above that in the course of fifteen years with a few thousand acres did drop ofthe life-giving fluid forthe feature of irrigation mud.
Our opponents call us non-progress if we above statements of extremes progression, we truly do not belong progressive order. We are proud of Directors that can manage our busiest long without calling upon us for an amount more than one dollar per share.
We feel very pleased that we board that can run our business years onthe small sum of $150,000 bonds,to say nothing ofthe large amounts they have created! This is interesting!
The progressive men who are favorite extension ofthe district have basic arguments upona flowing river with limited amountof water.The old are supposedto knowthe amount
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 28—The bulletin issued by the weather bureau this morning is as follows: A moderate cold wave will extend southward over Nevada and Utah to night, causing some temperatures throughout a large portion of that region. This cold weather will overflow into California to-night and Sunday, and will cause killing frosts in Northern California to-night and freezing weather Sunday night throughout the interior of the entire State. This will probably be the coolest weather thus far this season in California. It will probably be necessary to protect citrus fruits from injury by frost Sunday night.
The prevalence of a Santa Ana wind on Saturday afternoon dispelled any fears that might have been entertained as to frost that night, for we never have any frost when it blows. The wind quieted down at dark, and although the weather was somewhat cool, no apprehension of frost prevailed. Sunday the weather was superb. The morning hours were warm and balmy, and at 1 o'clock in the afternoon the thermometer registered 68 in the shade. At dark it was 52, and it was little below that at 8 o'clock. No fears of frost were entertained, and while at daylight the mercury was reported to be 33 degrees, no harm to the orange crop was done. Ice formed in standing water and the weather was accounted cold, yet the "killing frost" failed to materialize. The thermometer in Orange county must have been several degrees above the temperature at Riverside, but no bad effects of the cold wave have been reported from that point. A bad freeze at this time would be a calamity unspeakable to the entire State. After the waning moon no fear of frost will be entertained, and rain is looked for tomorrow or next day.
SANTA ANA is having a jolly good time trying to compel the street car company to grade the road between the car tracks. Some time ago the car company, rather than put themselves to the expense of this grading inside their rails, resolved to discontinue running cars in that town and on to Orange and Tustin, and one of the inspiring sightes at the county capital morning and evenings now is President Bundy coming to town from his home in Tustin on a bicycle. The Trustees are anxious to have this strip paved, as failing to do so, the winter rains will seriously interfere with the durability of the inside edges of the pavement already put down. Now comes the most amusing part of the whole affair. The Trustees sought to compel the street-car company to pave, but Judge Scarborough tells them they have not this power so to do, and as the company have discontinued running their cars, the paving
PRESIDENCY.
Washington, Dec. 29.—Democrats are very sure over the prospect of another issue of long-time high-priced bonds, as they thoroughly realize that with the notice of the new loan will vanish any possible hope of Democratic success for years to come.
Members of both the Senate and House on the Democratic side are exceedingly restless over the financial situation, and in private conversation as freely and forcibly demeanous the imbecile policy of the Administration as do the Republicans. Since the proposed issue of bonds has been accepted as a fact, within two or three days, there has been a good deal of talking about Mr. Cleveland for a fourth nomination. The Democrats declare with much bitterness that as he is responsible for the hole into which they have been precipitated he ought not to shrink the responsibility of leading for form hope next year. It is a peculiar, notable and significant fact that all talk of any other candidate has absolutely ceased, and men in both the great parties are to be found who freely predict that Mr. Cleveland will be renominated by the Democrats next year.
This prediction is coupled with another that he will be the worst beaten candidate who ever made the race for the Presidency. It is said that by the forthcoming bond issue Mr. Cleveland proposes to raise sufficient money to tide him through his present term of office. It will be at least $100,000,000, and it may be as much as $200,000,000 Granting that it is to be $100,000,000, this fourth bond issue within less than two years will make a total increase of the bonded indebtedness during Cleveland's administration of $282,315,400, on which there is annual interest charge of $11,532,616.
The total interest upon $100,000,000 of 5 per cent bonds already issued during the ten years that must elapse before they are redeemable is $80,000,000. Interest on $62,315,400 of per cent bonds, which are not payable for thirty years, will be $75,978,480, making the total interest that must be paid on bonds already issued $125,978,480. From this amount there must be subtracted $19,972,640, premiums received on the sale of bonds, leaving a balance of $106,005,840. Adding to this $162,315,400 bonds gives a grand total of $268,821,640 which the financial operations of the Cleveland administration have thus far cost the country, and on top of this, comes another issue of $100,000,-000 of 4 per cent bonds on which the interest during thirty years which they must run under the provisions of the resumption act of 1875 will amount to $120,000,000.
Including the forthcoming issue and interest thereon, Mr. Cleveland will have succeeded in increasing the indebtedness of the country in a trifle less than two years ap proximately $500,000,000. In view of this tremendous debt incurred in time of profound jeopardy it is not surprising that the leisure of life own party and the people of the country are sore.
Our opponents call us non-progressive if the above statements of extrema progression, we truly do not belong progressive order. We are proud of Directors that can manage our business long without calling upon us for an amount of more than one dollar per share.
We feel very pleased that we board that can run our business two years on the small sum of $150,000 bonds, to say nothing of the large amounts they have created! This is our vision!
The progressive men who are favorite extension of the district have based arguments upon a flowing river with limited amount of water. The old are supposed to know the amount of flowing in our river during these seasons, but for the benefit of these users we will republish an article thaikim GAKETTE of June, 1883:
"The necessity for developing mating water grows more and more every year since an increased area vowed land with no corresponding income in water without which the lace little value. Even at the present there is a demand which could be supplied were there five times water in the Santa Ana river as flowing down to the point of division; the 129 inches goes to Orange and San Diego with no correspondence in those countries. Either locally could or 400 inches to-day, and not waste. It is evident then that the countrys reached a point where so much pariors be done else no further development be arrested many of the improvements which rely on labor of years has destroyed by vitalizing water."
By the above article we can see that have another season like that one might again be reduced to 600 inches headgate, leaving us but 390 inches making the division with Bixby and this to make its way to those through an uncompleted, porous ditch which should have been instead of the ditches where no waste. And now the money and have all been spent and not a penny has been spent toward developing our supply. Why need we jeopardize our system by extending our district to old settlers too well that two out of every three the Santa Ana ripe short?
How can an intelligent stockholder annexation when knowing that conditions exist?
THE WATER QUESTION.
INS ADDUCED WHY AN ENLARGE-MENT OF THE DISTRICT IS NOT DESIRABLE—QUOTATION FROM ANOLD FILE OF THE GAZETTE.
FOR GAZETTE.—Dear Sir: We have last few months been reading articles in the local press written by lawyers, artists and land speculators in favor of our water district, and now think for the irrigator to make a few re-which may not be as finent as that capitalist and speculator, but will be upon years of experience, and feel that more profitable to the stockholder. Our first argument is that we have an amount of water as the Santa Ana Irra-Co., which irrigates 16,000 acres.
Argument to meet the above will be the first place the Santa Ana people claim to irrigate 16,000 acres from Santa Ana river—not by several thousands, and if you will give this matter proper consideration it will be plain to that such an enormous body of land must be irrigated with one-half of the that comes over our division box. Who claim that we irrigate only 7,000 with the same amount of water that we Santa Ana. It would appear that we lost sight of the fact that the nation condition of the country immediately the division box is such that we lose per cent of our water before reaching and gate. This loss in Santa Ana's gain have also lost sight of the most important, that we have two other divisions before we reach our district, viz., 100 to Bixby, and 200 inches to Yorba. Bank of 300 inches will be a heavy draw supply at times when we have but supplies coming in at the headgate. It is what we have more than 600 inches amount, but as we will show further on, we have been reduced to that amount these seasons, and what has occurred once recently again, and we do not want to be in the position that we will have to lagging for the night flow of this 300 inch, as we have done heretofore in dry areas.
Directors claim that we had a surplus which was permitted to run to. We will admit that we had an abundance of water which was permitted to waste in the river up to the 18th of while through the mismanagement of Directors the ditches were dry. The directors may throw this fault on the Susendant, and the Superintendent on the roars, but we irrigators hold the Director responsible for a dry district during the month of March, April and the major port of May, while there was good oppor-tions for the sale of water in this district of the sandwash, where the landhold-ment contemplated planting thousands of which had to be deferred owing to hawker water for irrigation. In the months and July the Zanjeros were supposed complete runs on the 18th and 30th of month; by an examination of the Zan-
FLORIDA'S DISMAL OUTLOOK.
E. NELSON BLAKE ON THE CONDITION OF THE ORANGE GROVES.
Chicago Times-Herald, Dec. 5.
"No such disasters ever came to any other State in this country as the Florida frosts of December, 1894, and February, 1895," said E. Nelson Blake yesterday in discussing the conditions of the orange groves and the prospects for the growers. "On the 15th of November, 1894, there were from five to six millions of boxes of fruit hanging on the trees. Net over one-fourth of it had been picked when the first freeze came, carrying the mercury down to 20, and in some locations to only 16 degrees above zero. This ruined every orange in the State north of Lee county. It killed the leaves and last year's growth on the older trees, and in some places killed young trees to the ground. This of itself was a serious disaster. The trees not killed were beginning to recover from the great shock and many had started out in new growth when the second freeze in February came, finding the trees full of sap, to the extremest live twig. From this they have never rallied, but gradually have died to the ground. Trees of all ages, from stock in nursery up to those 25 and 30 years of age, fared alike. Not one-hundredth of the trees in the State were left alive two feet above the ground. This fell on all institutions and all classes of people; owners, laborers, transportation companies, expresses, banks, traders, churches—no one escaped. Where one year ago stood millions of beautiful, luxuriant trees, now stand many millions of sprouts from two to eight feet high, grown up from the root, not from the stumps, for they are dead.
"Not to exceed 80,000 boxes will be grown this year, and they are limited to the lower tier of counties, where orange raising has been but a secondary matter with the few people living there, whose principal industry, if any, has been cattle raising.
"Never again in the State of Florida can the people expect a crop equal to the one of last year. The groves had been the growth of many years. The freeze of 1886 was discouraging, and after nine years of great labor and expense to have all results wiped out in a night disheartened the owners. Many of them are peanilies and helpless. They will not resist their groves, for they believe that the seasons are so changeable that attempts to raise citrus fruits in the northern three-quarterstates of the State are utterly useless.
"The great loss tell principally upon northern lavalite, who could not live in our rigorous climate, and who had taken up fruit growing as their only means of support in the climate favorable to them. Many of them were becoming self-supporting from the profits off their groves. A ten-acre skill, N. Y., says that Dr. King's New Discovery is undoubtedly the best Cough Remedy; that he has used it in his family for eight years, and it has never failed to do all that is claimed for it.

All Things Were Bigger Then.
Apropos of bundles, a correspondent who remembers things writes: "I met the Rev. Mr. Chickering one day when he was pastor of the High Street church,and he carried a huge lobster under his arm. He shook it in my face and said laughingly: 'I guess my character will bear me out. Nobody will think I have robbed a lobster cart, though I am hurrying home with my spoil.'"
"Nobody can carry a huge lobster home under his arm now; for the reason that nobody can find one to carry. In Dr. Chickering's time lobsters grew so big that the gigantic shell in Levi Atwood's window would turn a deeper red with mortification at the comparison and blush at its inferiority.
"In fact, all things were bigger in Dr. Chickering's day. I often caught trout that measured 24 inches—I am letting myself tell it. The grass was greener then and the sky a deeper blue. Flowers were more fragrant; apples had rudder cheeks; beechnuts were plentier; and boys smoked sweet fern." Great men were easier to find. I remember a group of them in my native town, though at this moment unable to recall their
We will admit that we had an abundance of water which was permitted to be waste in the river up to the 18th of while through the mismanagement of Directors the ditches were dry. The storm may throw this fault on the Suspended, and the Superintendent on the crops, but we irrigators hold the Directive responsible for a dry district during the blossom of March, April and the major port of May, while there was good oppression for the sale of water in this district of the sandwash, where the landbold- and contemplated planting thousands of which had to be deferred owing to heavy water for irrigation. In the months June and July the Zanjeres were supposed complete runs on the 15th and 30th of month; by an examination of the Zanjeres we will find that they were unable to complete runs on stated dates, but compelled to lage for a week or ten days. The water was allowed to run to waste in the last few days of August. Comically all things are governed by the sky and demand; hence if the price of water had been placed at a reasonable figure demand would have been greater, and probability is that the water would have been turned onto one orchard, but as it we irrigators knew that on the first of number the price of water would drop to per hour; therefore we postponed irrigation for a few days to get advantage of the reduction which would come in a day. We feel that if we were allowed water per share, and as a more reason-prince, there would be no worry about running to waste, especially in a few when the demand will be so much lower owing to the sorgeage of young orchids not yet in bearing, which do not meet one-half the irrigation that the old orders require; as a proof of the above argument we would be pleased to refer you to the young orchard of Jan. East, which tried but three irrations this season, as the Semi-tropic orchard just across avenue is being prepared for its fifth irrigation. We will note that in irrigating a orchard only about two-thirds of the flooded, while the old orchard is on maturity, more frequent irrigation required and about one third more water than time of irrigation. It will be seen that above that in the course of ten or twenty years with a few thousand acres and we will require a few more "crystal" forms of the life-giving field" for the manufacture of irrigation mud.
Our next argument is that they have had water by cementing branch ditches, admitted that they have saved some water, there was great need of it. This we will them credit for, and we approve of any movements at any point where water can be used, but denounces the extravagance of putting the Flocontia Ave, and Botford Oaks, and other ditches in the district intendently to beautify large areas of spacious at the expense of the stockholders. It known fast that there was but little or none in these ditches. These "tremendous exorbitations" which have been so greatly aggrandened about, could have easily been dried with the number from the old ones at a small cost, and the people of Bottford Oaks would have been better satisfied to have had to assume this enormous cause caused by cementing.
Our opponents call non-progressive, but above statements of extrema vigence is irresponsible, we truly do not belong to the progressive order. We are proud of a Board directors that can manage our business so without calling upon us for an assessment of more than one dollar par share.
We feel very pleased that we have a deal that can run our business for two weeks on the small sum of $150,000 worth of bills, to say nothing of the large indebtedness they have created!

The great loss fell principally upon northern invalida, who could not live in our rigorous climate, and who had taken up fruit growing as their only means of support in the climate favorable to them. Many of them were becoming self-supporting from the profits off their groves. A ten-acre grove of 'budded' trees that had been set ten years, or of 'goodland' that had been set fifteen years and properly cared for, was producing 3,000 to 4,000 boxes of fruit, worth $2,000 to $3,000, with a steady increase in yield every year, under favorable circumstances. So that after deducting expenses for care and fertilizer there was left to the owner a fair income, increasing as his number of sorts were enlarged.
It will depend on this and succeeding winters before any fruit may be expected from the sprouts. They are very tender and a light fruit will out them to the ground again. In nearly every case they are sprouts from the lateral roots underground, and will require budding for different varieties of fruit. With most propitious seasons a little fruit will be raised by 1000, but not enough, oven then, to affect the markets.
Lee county, whoh I referred to," continued Mr. Blake, "is in the extreme southern part of the state, and below railroad communication as yet. It is south of Punta Gorda, and contains the Colocasahobie river within its limits, which is connected by the Dixon Canal with Lake Okeeohaboe, draining the Everglades." It is the most tropical of all counties, and it will be the future center of citrus fruits of the State; also of pineples. Being on the gulf coast, it is less aftected by the northwestern from the Rockies."
What do you consider the character of the Florida fruit as compared with that from California or foreign groves?
"Bar superior in spicy flavor and abundance of rich juices. No other fruit can compare with it. To lose such fruit from our tables is a national loss. It had already achieved a reputation superior to all others in English markets."
Cannot persons compelled to live in Florida turn their attention to cotton, sugar cane, rice and other products!
"Not with profit. Soil and climate seems particularly adapted to citrus fruits. Other products are better and more cheaply produced in other sections, with an already overstocked market. Florida soil is largely sandy, requiring great abundance of water and fertility. Should the winters for some years to come continue favorable, many groves will be in a measure restored, as the people fully understand that their citrus fruits are their principal and surest means of business income."
What is the largest number of boxes you ever knew to be grown on a tree?
"I own a tree that yielded twenty-six boxes of grape fruit last winter. My brother owned a tree from which he picked twenty-two boxes of orange. Some have reported larger yields than those."
How many trees are usually set to the acre?
"The best growers set sixty-five. Some set more, but less would be better where they are well cared for, for they will soon cover the ground and make picking of fruit more difficult. As to the life of the tree, some in Italy are reported to be 200 years old, but our forcing system of cultivation would not be favourable to such longevity."
Never again in the State of Florida can people expect a crop equal to one of last year. The groves had been the growth of many years. The freeze of 1886 was discouraging, and after nine years of great labor and expense to have all results wiped out in a night disheartened the owners. Many of them are peanuts and helpless. They will not resist their groves, for they believe that the seasons are so changeable that attempts to raise citrus fruits in the northern three-quarters of the State are utterly useless.

Dr. Chickering's day. I often caught trout that measured 24 inches—I am letting myself tell it. The grass was greener then and the skye a deeper blue. Flowers were more fragrant, apples had ruddler cheeks, beechnuts were plentier, and boys smoked sweet corn. Great men were easier to find. I remember a group of them in my native town, though at this moment unable to recall their names, wisher than men who live now. Exactly what they said or did I do not remember—it was a long time ago—but there is no doubt about their wisdom. One of them was a selectman." —Portland (Mo.) Argus.
Trouble From Using Oil In Boilers.
The fact that the use of oil as an antincurator in steam boilers should be occasionally attended by bagged furnace crowns, if nothing worse, continues to be a source of wonderment to a good many people who ought to know something of the possibilities of oil treatment. It has been pretty well demonstrated that a very small globule of oil, on becoming attached to the inner side of a boiler sheet, will sometimes collect a mass of dirt particles contained in the water, the whole mixture ultimately baking on and forming an excellent nonconductor.
This being the case, the overheating and bulging of the sheet at that particular place are quite in the regular order of things. The only specially noteworthy thing about the matter is that a very thin film of oil and a very small admixture of dirt are sufficient to do a great deal of harm, and that the scale formed by them may be so inconspicuous as to readily escape detection; hence the seeming mystery which sometimes is supposed to attend the coming down of a crown sheet—Cassier's Magazine.
Not a Bleated Aristocrat.
Lord Carmarthen, comptroller of the queen's household at a salary of $4,000 a year, is the eldest son and heir of the Duke of Leeds and is as abbreviated in stature as his father. Whereas the latter is exceedingly portly, Lord Carmarthen is quite the reverse. On one occasion, when addressing a meeting of the electors of Brixton,a London suburb which he has represented in parliament,a certain section of audience showed itself indisposed to hear him.
Finally one of the interrupters cried out," We want no bloated aristocrats here!" The little marquis pathetically turned to his hearers and exclaimed: "Gentlemen, I must appeal to you. I may be an aristocrat,but do I look bloated?" Which retort turned laughed against the interrupter and scored one for Lord Carmarthen.-San Francisco Examiner.

The progressive men who are favoring the expansion of the district have based their demands upon a flowing river with an unstated amount of water. The old settlers supposed to know the amount of water in our river during the past dry years, but for the benefit of the newcomers will republish an article the Ana-Gakery of June, 1833:
"The necessity for developing more irrigating water grows more and more pressing every year since an increased area of cultivated land with no corresponding increase of water, without which the land is of no value. Even at the present time there are a demand which could barely be applied were there five times as much water in the Santa Ana river as is now going down to the point of division. Of 1200 inches of water at Bedrock Canyon, inches goes to Orange and Santa Ana, 600 inches to Anaheim and the contiguous country. Either locality could use 3000 1000 inches to-day, and not waste a drop.
It evident then that the country has reached a point where something must be done, else not only further development be arrested, but any of the improvements which represent labor of years he destroyed by the lack of vitalizing water."
By the above article we can see that if we extend another season like that of '83, we might again be reduced to 600 inches at the divison with Bixby and Yorba, thus to make its way to the district through an uncemented, porous and perforated ditch, which should have been cemented of the ditches where no water is present. And now the money and bonds all been spent and not a penny of it been spent toward developing our water supply. Why need we jeopardize our water system by extending our district when we settle known too well that two years of every three the Santa Ana river runs?
How can an intelligent stockholder favor expansion when knowing that the above conditions exist?

Hood's Calendar for 1896 is out and is greatly admired. Many pronounce it "the handsomest yet." It consists of the head of a beautiful young woman in an oval panel with a stylish gold frame. The background and pad are printed in harmonious brown tints. The remarkable growth of the editions of Hood's Calendars from one million copies a few years ago to over three million for 1896 is only paralleled by the wonderful advance in favor of Hood's Saran-parisle, which is now the only true blood purifier prominently in the public eye.

Important change of time by the Southern Pacific Company, between Los Angeles and San Francisco, and through Eastern points; effective Dec. 22, 1895: No. 19 leaves San Francisco at 3:30 p.m. and arrives at Los Angeles next morning at 11 o'clock, thus aborting the time nearly two hours. Close connection is made at 6:50 p.m. at Tracy by passengers from East via Ogden, leaving there at 1 p.m. previous day, shortening the time, Ogden to Los Angeles, to 45 hours. The through time of this fast service is as follows: Boston to San Francisco 4 days, to Los Angeles 4½ days; New York to San Francisco 4 days, to Los Angeles 4½ days; Chicago to San Francisco 3 days, to Los Angeles 3½. All day coaches are elegantly equipped with the celebrated Scarritt seats, which cannot be exciled in the world for comfort. Via the Sunset route a first-class Pullman car service has been inaugurated between Los Angeles and Chicago via El Paso and St. Louis, over the Southern Pacific, Texas and Pacific, St. Louis Iron Mountain and Southern and Chicago and Alton Railways. This train leaves Los Angeles every Monday, 2 p.m.; Burlington excursion leaves Los Angeles every Wednesday, 2 p.m.; Union Pacific excursion leaves Los Angeles every Thursday, 2 p.m. No change of care between Los Angeles and Chicago. The Union Pacific will run a through tourist car from Los Angeles to St. Paul, via Sioux City every Thursday.
Via El Paso and connection tourist excursion trains leave Los Angeles as follows, weekly and semi-weekly: Sunset excursions every Saturday at 2:30 p.m.; Rock Island, Monday at 2:30 p.m.; Chicago and Alton, Wednesday at 2:30 p.m.; Illinois Central, Thursday at 2:30 p.m.; Wabash, Friday at 2:30 p.m. The Rock Island will take a through tourist car from Los Angeles to St. Paul every Monday via El Paso, Fort Worth and Kansas City, arriving at St. Paul the following Saturday at 9:05 a.m.
Don's forget when going to Los Angeles on business that our First street and Commercial street stations are nearer by one-half the distance to the courthouse or the business part of the city than the Santa Fe can place its patrons.
