public appeal to them for a special
collection for himself, that he might
send money to his family, which he
said was in California in state border
ing on starvation. The collection was
taken up, and another in the Sunday
school, at his request, after which
spasms OF generosity the
congregation bethouyht itself
itself that it was rather queer that II
minister in receipt of a salary of $l25a

chased their sovereignty over the acres
and set the Indians at work at eig ghteen
cents a day. They harvested last year
about two tons of coffee, it being the
fourth year from the beginning. This
year their harvest has been twenty-tiv

crop this. year, they have proven their
ability to dry the berry by artificial
heat, and the business OF the partner
now travelling is to construct drying ap-
aratus of sufficient capacity TO work
their whole crop next year. This is
very important discovery for the coffee
industry, for it has been said tha, dry
ing by artificial heat injured the color of
the coffee. but the price realized by this
firm for their crop this year seventeen
cents poundl negatives that assertion.
