NAVAL RESERVE.
Three Companies TO BE Recruited
in This City.

Captain J. Fitzgerald, Commander of
Charleston No. l Naval Association, an or
ganiZatiOn which came into existence in this
city few short moaths ago, is one of the
most active workers in this State for the es-
Enlistment Of a naval reserve on the lines
laid down in a recent act Of Congress.
In conversation yesterday with CALL
reporter the gallant Captain, who, by the
way is a veteran of the United States navy,
stated that he went up to Sacramento last
week TO interview the Governor and his
Adjutant-General on the subject He found
both gentlemen in warm sympathy with the
movement and anxious to begin the work Of
organization Immediately. The Governor.
in addition, acknowledged that he had b cen
in communication with Secretary Tracy on
the subject and bad learned from b i'm that
the SIS. 900 appropriated by Congress 10 be
distributed among the States which shall or
ganiZe this new force VIII be ready for APP
pOrtiOnment as soon as the standing OF the
naval reserve in the different State luTiSdie-
tons is aSceTtained.
The amount which will probably come 10
California under the law will be about a
third of the entire appropriation, as il is the
intention to organize four companies here.
The money will be used for the purchase of
accOuterments, rent of barracks, etc. One
company Is already enlisted in San Diego,
and will be mustered in as Company 2;
the remaining three companies will be re-
cruited here.
Tomorrow evening Captain Fitzgerald
will begin recTuitingO peratiOns. He VIII give
preference to ex-navy men for enlistment in
Company 1, and will only accept applicants
who are between the ages of y and 30
years. The rules governing enlistments in
the other two companies will not be so
stringent, but every inducement will be Of
fered man-O wars men TO come to the front.
The Captain says that once enlisted the men
will have nc picnic on hand. There will be
dTiil I'VE nights in the week, and strict dis
Cipline will be maintained at all times.

gree for the house, the plans of which have
been patented by Mr. Hill.
The mushrooms are TO be raised from
spawn imported from France, and of the
button Varlety-the champignOn or French
mushroom of commerce. Spawn is conf
posed OF white tbers, from which, under
proper conditions and by form of fer
mentatlon, is generated the fungus, from
SIX to eight weeks elapsing between plant
ing and harvesting. Future supplies of the
spawn Will be supplied from the mature
pod in the beds.
After the full growth of the mushroom
the spawn continues to bear for six months,
when the beds will be torn up and the fer
tlllZer StreWn upon the ground. exposed to
air and sunlight, and under natural cOndi-
tions fresh crop will be produced. At the
conclusion Of the second crop new beds are
made and the operation of generating the
spawn repeated.
1t Is the intention of the promoter Of this
enterprise TO construct within the next few
months five or six additional tunnels Fa-
cillties will also be provided for canning the
mushrooms, and it is believed that fl suffi-
cient quantity can be produced to supply
the Western market.
In 1890 French canned mushrooms to the
value OF $4,000 were imported to Calif0r-
MA and four-hfthS of the imi ortation con-
sumed within the State. The first product
