Labor of all kinds is we'll paid in Arizona. Miners receive s to S4 per day. Masons receive S4 to S6, teamsters, s, carpenters S4, farm hands, S25 to $40 per month and board. The wage workers should congratulate themselves on the state of affairs, and should use a little judgment in the hand ling of their earnings. Lay by few dollars for a rainy day.

We learn by our exchanges that poor Bavispe, in Sonora, still con- tinues to be afflicted with earth euakes. Lieutenant Colonel Emilio Kosterlitzsky. in command of the custom house guards at that place, has recently arrived in Hermosillo from there. He says that earthquakes are of daily occurrence in and about Bavispe and are preceded by loud under ground noises. Between Batapeto and Fronteras there is place where the shocks are much stronger and it is believed that a volcano will soon burst forth.

The New Chinese treaty has been made public. It provides that for period of 20 years, dat Ing from the time of the exchange of ratification, the coming of Chinese laborers to the United States is prohibited. This does not apply to the Chinese laborer who has a lawful wife, child or parent in the United States, or property therein to the value of one thousand dollars, or debts of like amount due him. Every Chinese laborer on leaving the United States must, as condition for his return, deposit with the collector of the customs district from which he departs a full de- scription in writing of his family, or property, or debts, and shall be furnished with a certificate show ing his right to return to the United States. Should this state ment prove false he forfeits his right to return. Such right of re- tur.. shall expire within one year of date of leaving the United States, but may be extended for an additional reriod not to exceed one year. The existing treaty confers privileges of travel and sojourn in the United States to Chinese officials, teachers, students, merchants and travellers, for curi- osity and pleasure. The Chinese shall have for the protection of their persons and property all the rights given by the laws of the United States except the right to become naturalized citizens. It is agreed in the treaty to pay S215,- 619 as full indemnity for all losses sustained by Chinese subjects who have been victims of injury in per son and property at the hands of wicked and lawless men.

 pn of the period of twenty years,

acres of land? The above question
 is often asked. Seeing so many
 acres divided into five and ten
 acre tract brings out the query.
 What can a person do on the same
 to gain a livelihood? In Tulare,
 as well as other towns, there is as
 a rule one half of the population
 working for salaries ranging from
 $50 to S100 per month, or $600 to
 S1200, per year, barring no lost time. We are, as rule, slaves to
 a certain extent; toll from one
 month to another, with no rest.
 If a vacation Is taken we have to
 toll the harder to make it up. l
 claim that one who owns five acres
 of good land can, in four years
 time, be independent, and be making more money than if he
 were cashier of bank. I have no
 preference in the different varie- ties of fruit, nuts and berries.
 There is not one variety of good
 fruit but what is profitable, and a
 person owning five acres of the same will make more money than
 one owning larger tracts, simply
 because the five-acre man can tend the same and care for his fruit or berries much better, bringing him larger profits than the 160-acre orchardist. Grapes will pay at four years properly cared for S250 per acre, or S1250 for five acres, and will net the fve-acre man s1OO0 per annum. Figs at five years will pay from S250 to S350 per acre, apricots from S200 to S4OO per acre at five years old; peaches and nectarlnes about the same. Strawberries will pay from $400 to S900 per acre the second year from planting, and the first year the strawberry-grower will get one-fourth of a crop. Olives at seven years will pay from $500 to 5000 per acre. Now to prove facts, I would refer the reader to gentleman living about six miles northeast of Tulare. He is the owner of 120 acres. For a num- Der of years he tried grain raising, and kept getting deeper in debt every year. He at last planted one acre of Langworth's prolific and one acre of the Jumbo straw berry. The two acres of berries have paid his debts, improved his ranch, planted his orchard, and to- day he is independent. Being a truthful man, 1 can state hIs ex- act words: If it had not been for my two acres of strawberries, 1 would be tramping today" The same brings him $500 per acre every year. His young orchard this year netted S200 per acre, and the same man Is to-day an amateur at the business. How many fam lilies in rulare, if they had the land, could cultivate properly, and attend to five acres, while the head of the family was working for a salary? How much independ- ence would there be in the same. Don't stand back because you can't purchase forty or 160 acres, own ten shares in the canal, or pay S2500 for an artesian well; but buy five acres, put two small wells upon it, make two shake windmills, cultivate deeply, plant trees or berries. Place yourself on an equal with your task-mas- ters. Your life will be one of in dependence. It may take from four to five years of hard struggle. but you will be recompensed in the end.-W. J. Langdon Tn Tu- lare Register.
