Profit fin Almonds.

W. Treat, an authority on almond culture, has contributed the follow ing to the Woodland Mail: The California paper shell almonds at four years of age will yield $90 net. The California paper shell or the Nonpareil (paper shelD being the most profitable. The Golden Gate and the Ne Plus Ultra are the best soft shells, and might be planted to advantage every fifth row, with the paper shell as hybridizer.
 This year from l90 California pa per shell almond trees five years old covering ? 5-7 acres, l gathered 35O2 pounds of nuts, which sold in Chicago at 2 cents a pound. This is S283. 50 to the acre, little over $4 to the tree lS3 pounds to the tree When these same trees were four years old they bore thirteen pounds to the tree !; at three years old they averaged about three pounds, and at eight years they will double what they bore at five. They will at eight years bear fully forty pounds to the tree.
 At twelve years of age they will bear fully one hundred pounds to the tree, without the least exertiOn. This is, seventy trees to the acre, and reckoning at twenty-five cents to the pound, $l540 per acre, Now, these are nothing but plain, bare, facts. The almond tree never gets it's growth, you might say; of course, after it is | fifteen years old it enlarges very slowly ; but if it only has room it will grow to be monster.
 The reason the almond is not grown in California is because a few have planted the Languedoc, winch is a poor soft-shell and shy bearer, and j sell for a great deal less than the paper-shell Oess than half as much). But the almond is sure to be largely cultivated now that new and valuable varieties have been brought to light especially those of the paper shell class.
 These rev varieties of almonds have been tried and are known to be good, steady bearers, the California paper-shell in particular, the Non pareil, Golden State and Ne Plus Ultra. Their good qualities have been practically demonstrated. The almond is also very easy 10 handle il takes a novice but a short time tC learn what few details there are in gathering, hulling and bleaching. A person absolutely devoid of experience in the almond business can grow the trees and gather the crop as well a; an old orchardist. Another advan tage of almond-growing IS that il ripens after grain has been harvested and help can be obtained at moderate prices and without trouble.
 Still another point in favor of 1t is that the nuts can be left on the trees if for any reason they cannot bt gathered at a certain time, and the grower can use his own time in gather ing them he can also store them if Int is not ready to sell them. All these are advantages that we do not obtain for fruit.

True as Wheat.
LEWIS A. Corr,
 Commissioner

A writer in the Texas Siftings takes very humorous view of advertising He concludes that in this age the man who does not advertise is doomed Every style of advertising pays, but the greatest results are acquired from utilizing the advertising columns of a properly conducted journal An inch advertisement in a newspaper is worth a dozen on a fence. We never knew of but one case in which adver- Using did not pay. It occurred in Chicago. A burglar overlooked eighty dollars in the bureau drawer, and the papers so announced. He returned the next night and not only secured 1t, but suit of clothes besides. The man who doesn't hang out his shin gle and advertise, dies and leaves no sign. The right kind of eyes for bus mess men is advertise. Pufls in news papers may help merchants to "raise the wind" Death and discOntinuance of an advertisement are regarded as positive evidence of going out of bus mess
