The Dried Fruit Association.

The Trustees of the Dried Fruit Associa-
ton, chosen at the recent meeting of fruit
growers, met in San Francisco yesterday
and elected the following board OF officers

Weinstock; Secretary, w. H. Bramhall;
Treasurer. Grangers Bank. General Man
ager, General John T. Cutting. Executive
Committee-A. T. Hatch, r. B. Blowers,
John T. Cutting.
The General Manager leaves for the East
in few days to visit the principal markets
with q view of making arrangements for
the sale OF the great crop of dried fruits
and raisins that the association expects to
handle.
He will pay special attention to the
matter of developing markets for the
sale of dried wine grapes, which thus far
in the history of California fruit culture
have been offered East only in small lots.
The association has before it field for ac-
complishing great work in the interest of
California fruit-growing, and therefore de-
serves the hearty support and encourage
ment of not alone the fruit-growers but of
all who feel the importance of enlarging
the markets for our products.
The association will aim to adopt such
methods as will enable the smallest grower
of dried fruit to enjoy every advantage in
the way OF freight rates, transportation and
marketing facilities that are now enjoyed
only by the extensive dealer or large
grower.
1t will further aim to secure the highest
market rates end prompt cash returns for
fruits placed at its disposal, and to regulate
distribution so as to prevent the fruit COM
ing into competition with itself.

The Crown Auemnna

The crown or garden anemone, which is
much cultivated in climates where the
winters are less severe, is comparatively
little known in the gardens of the North
ern and Western States. The difficulty of
raising these plants at the North is the
sensitlyeness of their tubers to frost. If
they are planted in the fall and are so pro-
tected by means of leaves, evergreen
boughs or litter that the ground does not
freeze, they will come through all right in
the spring and bloom abundantly quite
early, or soon after the frost leaves. The
plant is native of the eastern shores of
the Mediterranean, where the winters are
not severe.
1t can be very successfully raised as a
winter house plant if it is borne in mind
that it is hardy plant in climate which,
though not severe, nevertheless has win
ter of some frosts. The most to be feared
for it in the hands of most persons is that
1t will be kept too warm. 1t should be
treated much the same as hyacinths and
tulips in pots, only, perhaps, giving it a
longer rest Plant tuber in good soil in
a tlye-lnch pot, in autumn, water gently,
and stand it away in the cellar. Give at
tention occasionally, and do not let the
soil become quite dry. Leave it where the
frost cannot get at it, and during the win
ter 1t will be making roots. About the
first of February it can be brought into
the window and given cool place. 1t
Will soon begin to make stout growth, and
In time will come to perfection. Do not
attempt to hurry by giving it a warm
place. As the season advances it should
get and can stand a higher temperature,
but it blooms early and passes away early
in the spring. Those who have never
raised it as a window plant will derive
much pleasure from trial of it, planting
a number of the tubers in order to have
several of the many pleasing varieties

The microbe of Dysentery.

Chantemesse and Vidal report the dis
coyery of specific bacterium in dysentery
PTogres Medical, April q, 1889. Work
ing in CorniPs laboratory, they have
studied five cases of tropical dysentery,
and have found the same microbe in the
LESSONS and stools of fatal case and in the
stools of four others. The bacteria were
found in colonies in and between the tubu-
lar glands of the intestine, in the lymph
glands and spleen. The organisms develop
rapidly at the ordinary temperature, thirty
ing on all the usual culture media. They
are bacilli, with rounded ends, and some
what thicker in TIE middle than toward
the extremities. They grow luxuriantly
in sterilized water from the Seine. Fed to
guinea pigs, pure cultures produce intes-
tinal inflammation and necrosis, the stom-
ach itself being affected. The LESSONS are
more marked when the gastric contents are
rendered alkaline. inexperienced injec-
tions cause death in two or three days with
peritonitis, pleuritis and pericarditis. The
liver is affected in these animals, necroses
with colonies of bacilli being found in the
portal areas. All the LESSONS in the expert
mental cases furnished pure cultures of
the bacillus From these facts, and the
absence of the bacillus in the faces of
healthy men, Chantemesse and Vidal feel
justified in claiming specific properties for
this bacillus. In commenting on this
paper, the Medical Nelus says that, although
the observations made are too few in num-
Der to bring absolute proof, they are of
interest as being the first in which so
much has been accomplished. Numerous
other investigators have described micro
organisms in dysentery; but none, up to
this time, have succeeded in cultivating
them. Further developments will be
awaited with interest

Thomas Findley Dies at Georgetown of
Acute Pneumonia.

Wednesday evening announced that Thos.
Findiey died early that morning of acute
pneumonia at Georgetown, Ell Dorado
county, where he has for many years been
engaged in experimenting ditch and min
ing operations. The body has been taken
to San Francisco, where the widow and six
or seven children reside. In speaking of
his death the Nevada Transcript saws:
In the early hfties Mr.. Findley drove
freightng team between this city and Sac
ramento. In about 1856 he opened a
grocery store at Grass Valley, and after
wards conducted at the same town private
bank, which failed in 1878.
In 1858 he was elected State Treasurer on
the Democratic ticket, and served one term.
dis satisfactory administration earned for
him the cognomen, Honest Tom"
In 1866 he was again candidate for the
same position on what was by its enemies
called the Secession ticket" He ran some
4,OO0 votes ahead of the ticket, but was
nevertheless defeated
In 1863 and again in 1871 he was a candi-
date for the Democratic nomination for
Governor. Both times he was defeated, his
successful competitor on one occasion be-
ing Governor Haight, who was afterwards
elected.
he was the original contractor for the
building of the Nevada County Narrow
Gauge Esilroad.
Upon the failure of the bank at Grass
Valley he removed with his family to San
Francisco.
The foregoing sketch of his life is OBJ
tanned from some of his old-time friends
here, who quote the dates from memory.
He is very highly spoken of by them, and
sorrow al his death is expressed here
among bis pioneer acquaintance, who held
him IN high esteem.

by a slight tickling sensation in the throat,

Kisses.

In the old days, when powder and
rouge were indispensable, a gallant gentle
man kissed the hand of his fair lady, and
her hand was kept immaculate, that this
kiss might mean much to him. Nowadays
men don't stoop to kiss your hand it
would get their pants out of shape. So 4
clean face becomes necessity to a woman
who has any liking for that expression of
affection which is generally approved of
and seldom well done. The only kiss
worth having, says writer on the SUBJ
ject, is shat of nice baby. and if the baby
doesn't give it, it only submits to it, and
keeps its sweet, dainty, perfumy little
mouth shaped like an o, as it waits for
you to discover just how delightful it is.
Mems kisses are like Scotch whisky
they are apt to be smoky. Children's
kisses are inclined to cover ones entire
face, but baby simply exists and lets you
take mouthful of the breath of Araby
Men have an idea that their kisses are APP
preciated-they are most immensely mis-
taken. The average man gives kiss Just
as he throws baseball-with too much
force. 1t ought to be as delicate as rose
leaf. Almost a memory in a second. 1t
need not suggest postage stamp nor
porous plaster. One lady says: 81 could
write book on kissing, but mankind is so
determined that l don't think he'd take
any advice on the subject, and yet, as it is
the women who receive the kisses, they
certainly ought to know more about them
than the great, big, stupid creations who
give them. .p-I}ou Times.
