Tree Culture In California.

Eight years ago an emigrant from an
Eastern State arrived in one of the bav
counties with his family and capital
of $75. He had some knowledge of
horticulture. and was good practical
gardener. A capitalist, who was the
owner of some comparatively useless
land, contracted with this emigrant for
planting and tending forty acres of this
land in Australian gums or eucalyptus.
The breaking, fencing. planting and
labor on the land cost the owner
$4,000. At the end of the first year he
had $4,000 thrifty trees, and the second
year he set out the shaded ground in
pasture, which retained its verdure near
ly throughout the entire twelve months,
showing a denser growth from year to
year. At the beginning of the third
year he utilized this pasture for dairy
cows, and found it strong enough to
support two cows to the acre. He esti-
mated its value for this use at 81 per
month per acre for eight months out of
twelve, or S32 per year per acre. The
total yearly profit from this source was
81, 280. At the end of the eighth year
he was offered in cash by the keepers
OF wood yard thirty cents each for his
trees. or $3.50 per acre, the purchaser

What We Do Not Know About Malaria.

President Chadbourne, of Williams
College, is an expert in chemistry, es-
pecially in its relation to health. Ma
laria has lately appeared in Western
Massachusetts, and its cause has been
attributed to the mill ponds, reservoirs,
and drains of manufacturing industries.
One company was indicted for main
tanning nuisance in the form of a
sewer which polluted river. DIR.
Chadbourne was asked to .'throw all the
light possible upon the subject" He
says in reply that he used to teach
without misgiving that the malarial
poison producing intermittent fever
was the result OF vegetable decomposi-
ton. especially the decomposition
caused by stirring soils rich in organic
materials and exposing them to heat
and moisture. He now thinks he was
wrong, and that very little was known
on the subject. ave do not know"
he frankly admits, whether the miasm
is an inorganic gas. the vapor of or
ganic compounds, or cryptogamic or
ganisms. Nor have we yet learned
what the specific conditions are that Sc
cure the production of the miasm, nor
the means of its distribution. We have
some facts and plausible theories on all
these points, but no theory that / have
heard of which accords with all the
facts now known. The malaria abounds
in wet and dry places, in valleys and
on mountains. 1t appears in places
where it has before been unknown,
without any change of condition that
can be seem" DR.. Chadbourne is con-
WINGED that moisture has nothing to do
with it, because malaria abounds in the
dryest and cleanest parts of the Rocky
Mountains; and, while he discards the
old theories, he says that he has no
new ones to offer.

son. which destroys them and fits the
land admirably for seedlings. This is
best done in the fail with grass, and
clover in the spring. If the work
throughout has been carefully and well
done a clean and greatly enlarged crop
of grass will result. the yield increased
in the start and maintained afterward
by fertility as needed, permanence be-
ing dependent upon the situation and
nature of the land, direct exposure to
the sun cutting short the grass period
in our climate, whatever the soil, and
in all situations if there is a large pre-
ponderence OF sand; this on account of
the drouth. 1t is important to observe
this. as weeds and coarse grasses pushed
from the dormant germs are pretty sure,
sooner or later, to occupy the vacant
place.
Other methods are employed, but the
fallow and hoed crops, properly man.
aged, are the most ready means of
cleaning our land, and the. fertility
maintained the further means of keep
ing it so, making the land yield much
more and increase the profit. Such
lands, with heavy sod, turned down,
will grow heavy crops of grain, and
thus constant occupancy and shading
of the soil is kept up, forming perpet-
ual bar against the weeds. Practice
has demonstrated this.-Cor. Prairie

Ahectionate Geese.

1t is well known that geese and gan
ders become greatly attached to persons
who habitually feed them and treat them
kindly. But the attachment is seldom
so great as that manifested toward an
English miller who keeps flock. The
faithful creatures had repeatedly fol-
lowed him mile to the village ON week
days, when he went to attend to bust
ness. 1t did pot occur to him that pos
sibly they might some day want to fol-
low him to church. But on a recent
Sunday they seemed to be in devo-
tional frame of mind and marched be-
hind him as he went to the sanctuary.
Arriving at the door they wanted to fol-
low him in, and probably would have
occupied his pew had he consented to
let them do so. He undertook to make
them understand that he wanted them
to go home, but the innocent and awk-
ward creatures failed to graspthe idea.
Finding it impossible to make them re-
turn without committing violence on
them, the miller was compelled to
abandon his religious privileges for the
day and proceed homeward at the head
of the file of his feathered pets
