A We'll Merited Compliment

Prof. e. W. Hilgard, in recent ad-
dress, paid the following compliment to
California and California fruit-growers:
II don't think that any country on the
American continent will ever compete
with California for grape-growing and
wine making. In the raisin and wine
industry do not think you will have
any American competitors. In other
fruits we have. There are certain other
localities in the United States where
they can produce fruits as well as in
California. New Jersey, for instance,
can produce large amount of peaches,
but it is very small as compared with
California, and would cover only small
portion Of our foothills. And I emphat
ically assent to the proposition made by
Mr.. Davis, that . community Of fiuit-
growers must be exceptionally intelli-
gent; a community of whest-growers
may have large tracts cultivated and q
sparse population, but it consists of rich
men aud poor laborers, whilst fruit
growing section must be exceptionally
intelligent. necessarily-I think intelli-
gent and educated. l think this indus
try conduces eminently to education,
and to small holdings. which necessarily
brings about degree Of popular intelli-
gence and education which it would be
difficult to find anywhere else"

California Fruit-Growers' Associa-
ton


The fruit-growers of California have
formed an association that should be OF
great value to themselves. The object
is to disseminate useful and important
information concerning fruit-growing,
shipping, marketing and curing Of
fruits; the best kinds to raise for profit
and the most enlightened methods Of
packing for shipment. The association
will also look after the various insect
pests that endanger the success and
profit Of fruit-growing. The following
arc the officers of the association:

at No. 40 California street, in San Fran.
cisco, on the last Friday of each month,
at l0A. NJ. The fruit-growers will find
this meeting much to their advantage
and progress. Our fruit-growers will
find 1t very profitable to join this society
and help along the cause that they are
SO thoroughly attached to. 1t is time
that Los Angeles had such society.

Tho Nocturna! cutworm.

In conversation with Judge B. 8.
Eaton, of Pasadena, yesterday. repor-
ter OF the HERALD obtained his views on
the nocturnal cutworm question. The
Judge gave result OF his investigation
as follows:
He had watched this worm for several
years, and found that 1t could be easily
killed by digging around the vine or
tree on which the nocturnal worm is to
feed. He first observed the worm In
1868, in the vineyard Of the late Hon.
B. d. Wilson, when certain rows were
found to be infested with the gray cu''
worm, which gave it the appearance Of
having been burned.
On examining the vines that were
affected It was found that they were
those that had not been cultivated close
to the trunk, and the worms had
their home in the earth close around
the vine, while the rest of the
Viuoyefu Whicu was thoiouShiy
cultivated all round the vine close up to
it had no worms. The rows were dis
tinct and could be plainly seen at q
great distance. The Judge concludes
that the cultivation close around the
vine during the winter disturbs the
larvae, and brings it up to the heat and
sunshine, which destroys its germs Of
life. This cultivation would necessitate
stirring the ground around the vine OF
tree by the use of hoe or mattock in
order to get nearer the vine than the
plow can come. The old Spanish vine.
yards were all cultivated close to the
vine with hoe and had no cutworms.
He thinks that thorough cultivation Of
all the earth around the vine will utterly
eradicate this pest. II this theory is
correct the worm can be annihilated be.
fore it is Matched, and all danger
averted.
The question is one of much interest,
and the theory Of Judge Eaton can be
easily tested. II is time that the matter
was settled at once and forever. If the
cultivation Of the soil Immediately
around the trunk Of the vine will kill
the pest, it is quite time to put that cul
tivation in practice. 1t will be easier
and cheaper to kill the creatures in that
way than to wait for them to hatch and
climb the vines, and then hunt them
with lanterns and tin pals. The ques-
tion can easily be tested by experiment
ing on vineyard, cultivating part Of II
thoroughly and leaving portion with.
out cultivation.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1884-05-02
Fire Alarm.

The necessity Of fire alarm system
in Los Angeles has passed the stage Of
argument. The city is now SO large, SO
wide spread, covering more ground than
other cities Of 100000 people, that
wild alarm, without indicating the local
ity, often sends the fire department ca
vorting in the wrong direction, while the
fire makes destructive headway by the
loss Of time caused by ignorance Of the
locality of the fire. A system Of electric
fire alarm signals would obviate all de-
lay, and when an alarm is turned on it
would indicate its locality in an instant,
and the firemen could at once know
where to 60 without loss Of time. Other
cities Of the size Of Los Angeles have
adopted this system with great success
and profit. By this system it is quite
likely that half the property now de-
stroyed in this city could be saved. Our
firemen are excellent, but the trouble is,
they are not advised where the fire is till
it is under destructive headway. This
should be prevented by a prompt system
of alarm, and there is no alarm that
moves so quickly as that of electricity.
In company with Mr.. Ivar A. Weld,
who is a scientific expert, HERALD re-
porter yesterday examined very COM
plete instrument for giving an electric
fire alarm. The invention is that of Mr..
Lunbsrg, of this city. friend of Mr..
Weld, and is SO made that the party
who unlocks the alarm box cannot lock
1t again and avoid detection after turn
ing on false alarm, and then lock the
box and escape. Another key has to be
used on the inside Of the box to change
the lock so that it can be closed. The
engineer is supposed to have the inside
key, and knows just what number of
key is used to open the box, SO that he
knows at once who starts an alarm,
whether bogus or genuine.
A similar system of alarm, but not SO
complete, was invented in Boston in
1851 by Mr.. e. B. Elliott, then superin-
tendent of the House Printing Telegraph
Company. The machine made by Mr..
Lunberg goes by clock work, moved by
electricity, and rings an alarm for any
number Of district desired until stopped.
Such system would be, like the electric
light, great advance on the present
custom of firing off revolvers in the
street to give an alarm, that nobody
knows where to find. Besides, the
firing Of revolvers sometimes means only
"a man for breakfast, and no fire at all.
We want the best system that can be
found.
