pilations are ready for the printer, and that the

length. without the adoption OF definite plans
as yet. Until such plans are adopted, the cost
of compilation cannot be estimated and during

you concerning this important subject.
HoETIcrITURE AND vITICUITURF.
The cultivation of the vine and the fruit tree
has become a leading industry III this State. The
area devoted to the growth Of cereal products
appears to have about reached Its limits while
that adapted for vine culture and truit-groWins
Is constantly extending, the soil OF the state aut
its climatic conditions being particularly favor
able to the growth of those industries. There is
also visible hea!thful tendency toward the
division OF large land holdings into smaller
ones. While the business of grape and ftuil
culture is in the main profitable, its legitimate
followers have many enemies Ia encounter and
many obstacles To overcome. Fruit and vine
pests, the adulteTatiOn and imitation of genuine
products by dishonest producers and dealers ut
home, and the anticipated competition with
similar products from foreign countries, par
ticularly in the matter Of Wines render the call
ing and profits Of such producers neither as Ger
tain, satisfactory, nor remunerative as they
should be \ stringent penalty should be iGl-
