This family of Ona Indians are the only
representatives of their lurge tribe that have
ever been taken from their homes Many
years ago some natives from the south coast
were taken To England and received there
a mdimentary education. But the Onas,
who are spread over more than tour-iifths
of the great islands, have been almost UNI
known until the recent discoveries of Lista
and Pepper; and the mountain ranges that
parallel the south and west coast have been
a barrier which the natives ON either side
have never tried to cross,

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS THE WORLD
Fifteen Hundred Acres Devoted TO Fruit
Raising

T California, famous for its gigantic trees,
its mammoth vegetables and its magnih-
cent fruits boasts of the greatest orchard
in the world. 1t lies in an open valley of
the Sacramento, in Butte County, and COW
ers two and half sections, or 800 acres
of land Its owner, Gen John Bidwell, is
one of the early pioneers, having crossed
the plains i'm lS41 He was an associate of
Suffer and Fremont, and his life in those
early times was replete with adventures
among savage Indians and wild beasts.
He has more than quarter of section of
land, in fact nearly 200 acres, planted to
peaches alone He has over 100 acres set
to plumbs and prunes. The latter when
dried, are superior to the finest of the im-
ported French; prunes, while the plums
are truly magnificent, including the yellow
egg, Washington, Columbia, Ponds seed
ling, Goes golden drop, Duane purple,
peach plum, and still others varieties.
Several thousand pear trees form a grand
orchard i'm themselves While many var
ieties are grown. vet the Bartlett leads all
others. The Seckel. Flemish beauty and
kietfer are among the most profitable var
ieties. There are some ), 900 apple trees that
include much of the standard varieties.
It is noticeable IN this warm climate that
what are known as fall apples in the At
lantic states are summer apples here, while
those known as winter apples there ripen
early in the fall here.
The apricot orchard includes between
sixty and seventy acres, and the best yarie-
ties only are set out.
There are .357 cherry trees and these
make wonderful growth and bear pro-

con, measures sixty feet high, seven and a
half around its trunk, and bore in one sea-
son 700 pounds of fine fruit The cher
ries were picked and weighed under the
most careful supervision, so that no errors
could occur At the prevailing price this
season this tree returned TO its owner a
greater profit than ten acres Of land plant
ed to wheat.
There are great numbers ofalmond, which
reaches state Of high perfection in this
warm climate, many fig, nectarine, orange,
olive, ounce. walnut, chestnut pecan and
other kind of trees, but it would be useless
TO here specify the number of each.
The vineyard covers 200 acres, and the
varieties mostly grown are white muscat,
which numbers 1913 vines, black Ham
burg, fame and blue tokay, emperor, rose
of Peru, and black Morocco.
There are three large packing houses for
handling the fruit. Driers are not used,
as. owing to the dry climate, the fruit
and raisins are all cured in the sun I'M
mense quantities Of the fruit are canned,
and for this purpose a mammoth building
was constructed. 300 persons are given
employment. During the rush Of the
peach and apricot season much larger
number is added To pick box and dry
the fruits in the orchard 300 men are EN-
ployed So that this mammoth orchard
alone gives labor to 500 persons
During the present season five car loads
of fresh. dried and canned fruits were
shipped daily The is a rich sandy loan,
and the trees are grown without iuiga-
ton.

poultry breeders will wonder why the
hens don't lay. If they have one breed.
then that particular breed will be blamed
and another one tried, only to find the
same existing conditions Of manage
ment. Now is the time to make such
arrangements as will go far toward i'll
surfing liberal supply of fresh eggs
during the winter, when eggs are scarce
and high. The first step toward this is
to sec that your poultry house is not
only clean and free from dampness. but
that it is made tight-wind and rain
prOOf-and that proper precautions are
observed for ventilation. One of the
very. best things to make the
house storm-tight is tarred telling.
which is also obnoxious to lice and
mites, though more substantial out
side covering can be made by first paint
ing the building thoroughly. and then,
before the paint dries, putting coarse.
close-woven baggIng or canvas over the
whole, lacking well in place. The bag
ging can be treated to two or three
coats of good rubber paint and the
thing is done. A warm, comfortable
house goes far towards insnring winter
eggs. and when to this be added, in the
start, good early Matched and vigorous
birds and plenty of suitable food, there
need be no reason for asking why the
hens don't lay. They naturally will not
furnish as liberal supply in winter as
IN summer, but they will furnish none
at all If left to shift for themselves.
