olive tree in Northern California, it gives
me pleasure to state my belief in the same
is affirmed by the fact that have planted
nearly 5000 olive trees of the Picholine
variety on my land. I was born, might
say, under an olive tree, for in my child
hoods home my eyes could rest hardly
on anything except vineyards and olive
trees. The sweet remembrance of the
days gone by has filed me with the idea
Of spending the balance of my life amidst
similar scenes in this new home of mine.
On all good lands that could be properly
cultivated would see vineyards, but on
all arid lands, between rocks, where water
is hardly ever found, would see those
beautiful evergreen trees growing with
astonishing vigor. The olive tree will
stand the longest spells of dry weather.
1t succeeds in the driest lands. It grows
best on the top of hills, between rocks
and stones, where there is but little soil.
1t fourishes we'll in temperate climate,
and is affected only when the thermometer
runs up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit or
is down to 20 degrees. Those ex-
tremes of temperature not being known
in Napa or Sonoma valleys, why should
it not grow as luxuriantly as it does on
the shores of the Mediterranean Sea? The
reproduction of its leaves takes place
twice year-in the spring and in the
fall-but as they last two years, dropping
only during the third year, they keep the
tree always green. There is no produc-
tive tree requiring SO little culture as the
olive tree. Many farmers in France,
Italy and Spain never prune, nor cult
vate, nor manure it, though they derive
moderate crops every two years. But
when properly cultivated and well fed, it
is apt to give enormous erops-very large
one year and Il moderate one the inter
vening year. When planted from the
rooted cuttings it is likely to bear fruit
four years after. It's productive capacity
increases and reaches its maximum when
the tree is about twenty years old. Be-
ginning with. its-eissth--~-~-@
mkt ours, expect to obtain six, eight
or ten gallons of berries to tree when six
to eight years old. As the market price
for sailed olives in barrels is now in San
Francisco about 81 per gallon, and as the
picking and packing will not be over 80
cents per gallon, it follows the cultivation
of the olive is, in my estimation, going to
attract much more interest in California
than viticulture, because either by pick
ling or making oil it will pay three and
four times as much. 1 should add that
the olive tree lives centuries and centuries
over. l saw it mentioned lately that there
are some of them still living at Jerusalem
which were known during Evangelical
times.-AdoLphe FLan1G'at, an SacrG-
D1entO Bee.

The San Francisco Merchant says !:
" A gentleman, engaged in sugar planting
on the island of Hawaii, writes us as fol-
lows have obtained pa tons of sugar
to the acre from my cane, and realized a
decent profit from my investment. Money
most undoubtedly can be made in the
sugar business of this country but the
successful man is only to be found when
he has a thorough knowledge of it, and
watches with an eagle eye the going to
and fro of the dollars and cents.''

THE San Francisco School Board
recently adopted rule abelishing the
use of the rod in school, believing
that corporal punishment is cop
posed to the spirit of the age" and
unnecessary. The school teachers,
who have to manage the children,
unanimously voted against the new
rule, believing that moral suasion is
not sufficient to control the unruly
spirits of the coast. We are inclined
to think that the teachers are right
in their conclusions. Want of paren-
tai control is the weak point in the
social life of California, and especially
SO in San Francisco. Where the
parents of children exercise due au-
thority over them, it is comparative
ly easy for school teachers to man
age their classes.

HAWAII is interested in the ques-
ton of railroad transportation, which
is agitating the United States. 1t will
be an exporter, in q few years, of a
great variety of fruit products and if
railroad transportation were at all on
a reasonable basis it would have the
Eastern market to equalize prices on
the Pacific Slope. We should, there
fore, watch with interest the progress
of the great struggle which is now
occurring between the industrial in
terests of the United States and incor-
porated capital. Hawaiian sympathy
is on the popular side in this quarrel.
The triumph of the American peopel
would be our gain.

The Inauguration of President
Cleveland on March 4th will be a
memorable event in the history of the
American Government. For the
first time since the Presidency of
Buchanan, the American people as a
whole will be fully represented at the
inauguration ceremonies. The blue
and gray will meet in the grand pro-
cession, and bridge over forever the
''bloody chasm" which divided them.
Friends of peace, and lovers of human
progress all over the world should re-
joice at this, and wish success to the
Democratic Administration.

OLIVE CULTURE.
What is Being Done With This I'm
Gusfry in California.
$50

Olive culture is receiving renewed at
tention in Southern California. A few
years ago the insect pests attacking the
olive seemed SO numerous and persistent
that many growers dug up their trees in
disgust, and abandoned the business, but
few men of nerve, like the Kimball
brothers, of San Diego, and Ellwood
Cooper, of Santa Barbara, kept on, and
have come out victorious. The demand
for native oil is increasing in California,
about 100000 bottles being made an
nually, and this demand will grow rapidly
in the future, and California horticultu-
rists are preparing to supply it, as one
man, w. A. Hayne, of Santa Ynez, has
planted 100000 cuttings during the past
two years.-RltraI Californian.

A GAIN ~ SALARY.
An Arrangement Which was Made by the
New Age.-Increase of Fees Drawn by
Harrington From the County Treasury.
Adjourned

The New Age of Mar 2sth, 1884, after
fixing the compensation Of the city marshal
at 81 200, and stating that all fees above that
amount were to be turned into the city treas
ury. made the following economical state
ment:
This arrangement will make saving to
the city, we doubt not, of from two to three
thousand dollars
Let us see how the New Age ring carried
out their promises to the taxpayers of Au-
gusta. From the books of the county treas
urer we learn that the fees of the ring
marshal, Harrington, tor the eight months
ending in November. as recorded there, were
81 ,238.97. Now during the same period of
the previous republican administration the
fees of the marshal were but 1904. IA. showing
an increase for the eight months of police
government under the ring, of $l44.83. A
proportional gain for the remaining four
months will give total increase of Earring
tons fees of $217.24 over the preceding
wear. Thus, instead of saving "of from two
to three thousand dollars" an additional ex-
pense is made to be paid out of the pockets
of our citizens. How do our taxpayers
relish this ? Isn't it high time that the
police department was run on some other
basis than that of moneymaking institu-
tiOn?
