CALIFORNIA LETTER.

We have heard 80 many reports re-
garding the price paid for beets in Cali
iornIa and the cheap labor that was
secured there. We wrote TO one of our
subscribers at jacksonville for informa-
ton upon the subject and secured the
following reply which may be found
of interest to some Of our readers
"In answer to your questions | will
say there are different ways OF cultiva-
ton carried on here, some farmers will
pillow and seed their lands and then
make contracts to have them tbinned
out, cleaned, dug, topped and load the
beets into wagons, and the farmers will
deliver them to the factory. When the
farmers hire their own help they pay
$35, 90 per month. Women do not work
in the field in this part OF the state. A
farmer whom l am we'll acquainted

$3.50 per ton. His yield was 20 tons
per acre, and he received an average Of
$3.50 per ton for his beets, thus leaving
him a fair profit, considering the fact
that this was not a very favorable season
for beets. The average price of land is
about 500 per acre.
some farmers have done well, and
some say they have lost money by rails
ing beets, but notice they always want
to contract again.
Our seasons run closed December Sd
(this included a shut down OF two weeks
to allow the beets to be brought in) our
run was very successful as far as ma
chinery is concerned, not break or a
hitch occurring the whole time.

HOME INDUSTRIES.

Many people in travelling through this
country are forcibly struck by the great
advancement and internal improve
ments that have been made by settlers Of
this section in spite ofthe many obstacles
they have had to contend with. a great
the advice of the founder of this section.
His advice was to foster and build up
home institutions as much as possible
and where that policy is adhered to the
country is bound to grow and prosper.
We live in a practically new country
and in an undeveloped part of it. A
part that is being brought out and de-
veloped every day, and one in which the
resources are 10y no means exhausted
and just beginning to be opened. New
ventures and industries are being started
constantly and only want home en-
enlargement aud sustenance to make
success. All progressive citizens are
pleased to have anything started and
grow that will help out them and their
country.
II is TO such men that this now beauti-
iul country owes its present condition.
There are men and we expect there will
always be men who never have nor
never will advance themselves nor their
country zone iota. A country or town
made up of such men would resemble
those semi-civilized nations who have
not advanced one step for thousands Of
years. That such men do exist amongst
us We have demonstrated in our own
little business, but we are glad to say
tina. such are few and far between,
Most men are ready and willing to foster
and help ms much as is in their power

worms This idea Is based upon the
fact that scab spots form an attractive
feeding ground for variety of insects,
especially wirc-worms, myrinpods and
mites; the common occurrence OF which,
ospccinlly in the deeper scab spots,

directly associated. That this Is not
the case hus been shown by careful
observation, the only connection be

The earliest botanical explanation
of the cause OF scab was in ts4e when
DIR. Wallroth attributed IL 10 the action

Early this morning a man bearing the
name Of Mclaughlin hired horse and
carriage from f R Mcguire Co, livery
men, at No 200 West Front street. He
hired il for the purpose of taking his
wife and children to West Chester, Pa.

When 1t reached Fourteenth street it
turned east to French, and began its
home run down French street.
Between Eighth and Ninth streets the
horse struck vehicle and almost
knocked it over. This seemed to madden
it and il took to the pavement on the
east side of the street at Eighth and
monopoli1ed IL from there to the railroad
depot in such manner that a bicycle
would have been relief to the eye Of the
lodging pedestrians.
When it reached Front and French
streets il never swerved, but went at
breskneek speed across to the northwest
corner of the P, w. & B. station Sew
eral hands were thrown up but they
only frightened the animal more.
John Rathvin, who had just come
from Philadelphia, happened to reach the
corner Of the station at the same time
the horse did. He was struck and
knocked about Eve feet, striking his
head heavily in the fall. The force Of
the collision threw the horse from its

The important legal argument prom
Used between City Solicitor Charles M.

this morning but it was not 80 big as was
expected. Yesterday it was proved that
a colored man named Duff Ward had OBJ
tanned drink from man with a gripsack
in the restaurant of Daniel Harkins, but
it was not shown that Harkins had any
knowledge of the transaction. Neverthe-
less Mr.. Curtis maintained that he was
accountable for the acts of the man
in his house, and obtained a
continuance to look up authorities. He
did not succeed in finding any, but to-day
he again eontended that the law held
Harkins amenable.
''If that is the case" said Mr. Ward
''if Mr.. Curtis WAS busy in his Office and
client of Mr.. Spruance's was there,
who, on the lawyers going out, sold
whiskey to another man. would the city
solicitor consider himself amenable.
