GAMBLING GAMES AT STATE
.fr.rf fa t...f. te4 FAIRS. t.f-g aids os. ~

AT meeting of the California State
Board of Agriculture, held August
4th, Director La Rue objected to the
wheel of fortune privilege which had
been let for the park. He said it was
demoralizing to young men and ndla dead
job. He moved that the vote grant
ing the privilege be reconsidered, but
after long discussion his motion was
voted down. The Stockton Iadepe,a-
dent comments on the transaction thus:
"The question Of licensing gamb-
ling game was discussed. But one
director opposed it on moral grounds,
while others either excused it on the
ground that the society might as well
get the benefit as have it 60 to others,
vino would ruin games anyway. This
argument is a very poor one. It is
the same that is employed by all
classes of evil-doers from the thief,
who rolls a drunk, to the rogue.wh
robs in millions and by strategy.
Though the directors do not seem to
see it, it's logic is the same in each
case, and to this: Some rogue will get
the money, and [ may as well be that
particular rogue but it is always q
rogues's argument. "1aI 915 ne9"5s9

THE ELECTRIC LIGHT A STIM-
mol yULANTe TO VEGETABLE lob
,I. tuI -r,;- GROWTH. ~ - .gyoa

1.-The electric light has been expert
,mented with as substitute for solar
light in stimulating vegetable growth.
Through, the aid of the spectrum
analysis it has been found that it ex-
actly corresponds to the sun in its
com binationl Of colors of rays, the
difference to the sun appears only In
its volume. q DR.. ,Siemens has come to
the following conclusion. That cleo
trio light is eficacious in producing
chlorophyl, which is the green color
ing of leaves, and that plants are pro-
NOTED in growth. That an electric
light equal to 1000 candles, placed at
q distance of ten feet from. growing
plants appeared to be equal in effect
to average daylight, but that more
economical effects can be attained by
more powerful light. That plants do
not appear to acquire period of rest
during the twenty -four hours Of day,
but make increased and vigorous
progress if subjected during the day
time to sunlight, and during night to
electric light That plants can sustain
increased stove-heat, a circumstance
favorable to forcing in greenhouse
culture by electric light.-Prcf. KIRBY.

dealt many years in stock in Moore,
1butII never found where Mr.: Cox.
raised his hogs, on acorns. If acorns
will raise meat as easy for the Mrm-
ers as for Mr., Cox why then they
don't need fences. H a farmers stock
outside Of his farm Keeps up his fence,
why then lit is bestto have a fence; but
if he has to hunt up money from some
other sourcerto fence his stock off his
farm, then his stock is dead expense
on his farm Sorry stock is heavy
drag on farmer, and the quickest
way to: remedy it is to pass stock
law, and then men will study their in
terest in the way Of stock. There are
so many farmers who, don't want to
give up the old fence, when time has
brought about q change SO that stock
is all run down and farmers don't take
an interest in improving their stock;
they wait for something to turn up,
but they better make it turn by pass
Ing a stock law and looking after
good stock, and not.depend on acorns
to raise their hogs. Mr.. Cox says he
lives near the no-fence law and they
are getting very tired of it, and that
q COW perished to death tied to stake
in sight Of grass. tIdon't see why
one eaof his fvey hundred pound hogs
would not perish to death tied to .
stake near an oak tree also; and what
would become Of his hogs the year
acorns failed? b2H#FfF E7fllh1 9'5
I simply write this to let Mr.. Cox
see that brother Farmer" has friends
on the nofence side of the question as
well as he.
Now I will close, hoping to hear
Mr.! Cox's views, further. on the fence
question. The farmers on the no-fence
side think it good thing; they get
clear Of repairing fences and can apply
their time to improving their land to
their interest. uq moi doidU yd ,5aDIj

day. At nine o'clock ballots were taken
and twenty females and three males

Col. CIV. Sharpe, then delivered q
forcible address to the members on
the good of the Order. Right here |
will state that if all members were
like him, the Alliance would certainly
prosper, Alliance adjourned at twelve
o'clock for dinner; all hands proceeded
to a grove near by where there was
long table prepared expressly for the
picnic Spread with fruits, meats and
fine samples Of the culinary depart
ment, which was done justice to by
the hungry crowd. ~ After dinner,
public speeches were made by Messrs.
j. C. Lentz and w. M: Dulin, two
members Of cur Lodge. I will not
do them an injustice by trying to
reproduce their speeches. They were
short, practical and to the point. AL Ali!

EDITOR FARMER:-It is pretty well
known that the counties of Piedmont,
North Carolina, and principally those
tributary to Winston, are noted for
the superior quality of the leaf pro
duced, especially adapted to the manu-
facture of an excellent quality of
chewing tobacco, for which Winston
has become famous, as Durham is for
her smoking tobacco. But there are
few who live outside of Winston who
have any conception of the magnitude
which this business has attained, of
leaf handled, or the immense output of
the factories now in operation.vaThe.
business has grown so rapidly that it
has excited the fears and jealousy of
our friends across the border, and as
a result the Danville Register is frankly
appealing to her manufacturers toI
gird themselves for the contest, and
try to recover the trade that w inston,s
manufacturers have wrested from
them. Not many years ago, you
know, Danville was the only tobacco
market South of fILynchburg, as if was
also the only tobacco manufacturing
town. Its factories grew in mum ber
and fourished. It held its position
till after the war when enterprising

have to borrow money should use
their influence in trying to have our

of interest from the high rateIof 8 per
cent. back to the rate of 6per cent.

surprising calculations. , / repeat this
