OF Carlson Il Currier, manufacturers of
Bedding Bros. & Co.'S spool, skein, en-
broidery and knitting silk. 1t is the only
silk manufactured on this coast, and as
California is fast approaching the time
when it will be one of the first manufact-
uring States in the Union, everyone should
give preference to goods made on this
coast-for the wealth of a State lies in its
productions"
WARNING TO THE PUBLIC.
There is need to warn the public against
a dangerous swindle. One would suppose
that when it comes to the sale of insect
cides he would have no difficulty in Sc
curing a genuine article. Unfortunately
for human nature, this is not true. Take
! the case OF the plant producing the insect-
eide popularity known as buhach 1t is
grown by J. d. Peters and g. \. Milco
upon q tract Of 300 acres in MERGED county.
upon the line Of the Southern Pacific Road
This tract, which is to be enlarged to 500
| acres at once. is traversed by the line of the
great MERGED irrigating canal, full &C
count Of which appeared q few
DAYS ago in the RECORD { MON.
The plant is towering, and known
in botanical nomenclature rs Prethum
ciaerarim foiium. The commercial title,
secured Is a trademark, is BUnAcH,"
and none is genuine unless the can is
corered by the label bearing the words,
Buhach, G. \. Milco's California Univer-
sal Insect EXterminator" The prepare
ration is made by grinding the flower of the
plant 1t is reduced to powder, which is
yellowish in color and not difficult to imi-
tate. Now, whenever an article is sold as
buhach which does not in use do all that
the buhach labels prospectuses and adver-
tisements promise for it, it is very likely to
be spurious article, and the firm growing
and preparing the genuine will be thankful
if samples OF it are sent to them, with the
name of the seller. and the date and Mace
81 purchase, and. if possible, the package
! cover or can and label bought with it. A
dealer may offer to sell it in loose bulk
When he does so. it is a fraud. Some.
however, will sell it out of original buhach
cans, by the pound. 1t is then very diff
cult to detect the fraud, except by testing
it. The safe way is to buy sealed packages.
marked as stated above, and the genuine is
put up IN such variety of sized cans as To
accommodate all needs. Some $500. 900
has been invested in this article by the
growers, and they can afford to guaran
tee every ounce sold under their labels in
sealed packages, but they will under no
other circumstances of sale be responsible.
As will be obvious to all, this is a precaution
OF wisdom. In the Pavilion is pyramidal
exhibit Of buhach, III packages, containing
about eight tons of the article Mr. Matthew
Cooke, the well-known entomOlogist, is in
charge of the exhibit and will explain the
properties Of the article, its uses, its growth
and transfer by manufacture to the article
OF commerce, to all who desire, and exhibit
samples of the plant and flower and genu-
TH,a, .1,,. H. u
buhach is natures antidote for the insects
and parasites that do grievously afiiict Us
and our domestic animals and fowls.
Strange as ii may seem, so wondrous are
the untathOmable mysteries of nature, that
designs for our good when least we
know it. while buhach is certain death to
all manner of insect life, from that in
visible to unaided sight to the largest and
most nOXlous of the insect world, il is ab-
solutely harmless TO human life or TO ami
NAL life. Even the concentrated extract of
the powder has been freely administered in
teaSpOOnful doses without harm to the per
son. No mightier proof OF the direct pro-
vidential character Of this marvellous plant
can be adduced.
That very law which molds a tear.
And bids it hickle from its source:
The law that preserves the earth sphere,
And guides the planets in their course"
Buhach has other and greater uses than
in Kidding our bodies and our dumb servi-
tors Of insect pests. A short time ago the
great fruit industry Of California was as
sailed by scores OF noxious insects. There
is no need to tell what they are They
assaulted vine and Zig leaf fruit and branch,
dcspoiled the roses and lilies, and bid fair
TO wreck the beauty OF our gardens. and
bankrupt our orchards and vineyards. |
But it was found that buhach. used
III powder, or, better still, in spray
with soap, was the enemy Of these pests
and the salvation OF interests worth mil
lions to this State. Still another use has
been discovered for il. Prof. C. Y. Riley. |
Of the Department Of Agriculture, Wash |
ington, reports that he has found mixture
Of one pound Of buhach with twenty
pounds OF wheat -four TO be perfect exter-
mlnatOr al the cotton worm of the South |
So, TOO, Professor 4. J. Cook, of Lansing |
Michigan, states that one pound of buhach |
to 200 gallons of water, sprayed upon cab
ba@es, Is still potent to kill the cabbage
worm. But Matthew Cooke, of Sacra- |
mento says, Use ten gallons of water to
one pound OF buhach, and apply with |
force pump and cycle nozzle, and no insect
will escape Thus buhach protects not
only our food, our dwellings and our bod |
les, but the textile fabrics in which we
clothe our bodies, from which we may well
conclude that we can no more do without
buhach IN the house than without flour in
the barrel or money in The purse.
