The Cabbage Aphi- which Was SO DE-
structlve Last Season to the Young
Cabbages, TurnIps aud adishss--Rem-
etites Suggested,
The cabbage aphis, or louse was very
abundant last year, appearing early in
the season and proving especially de-
structive to young cabbage plants grown
for transplsnting. Turnips and radishes
also suffered from this pest. In the cut
is shown, greatly enlarged, one of the
winged cabbage lice. The small lines at
the bottom show the natural length and
breadth, When badly infested the plants
are so covered with the lice that it is al
most impossible TO see the leaves. Like
the grain louise, this species has it's natu-
raj enemies. We can also do much more
with the insecticides when it comes to
fighting the cabbage louise.
One of the best remedies is the whale
oil soap Of commerce. The kerosene
emulsion Is equally effective, and, ac-
cording to Eutomologist j. b. Smith, is
even better. Fish oil soap was perfectly
effective at the rate of Dne pound of soap
to eight gallons of wGtcr. Another very
satisfactory remedy was found in ground
tobacco. This last was used with excel
lent effect put on early, while the plants
were wet, and busted on thoroughly. II

Gross bred poultry versus pure bred
poultry is a very common topic of dis
cussior, and successful growers differ in
their expressions on said topic. Stephen
Beale, the well known English authority.
makes some exceedingly sensible remarks
in his work Oh poultry under this head.
He ssys:
There is III ideavery prevalent that
cross bred poultry K much more profit
able to keep than pure bred. While
there can bc,no question that it is a de-
cided advantage to cross certain breeds
with one another t:n order to obtain
specific results, it is, of course, if tho
crossing is .scientif cally and slilfully
done, having an end in view. This is
altogether different to tho breeding of
mongrels which is 50 common. In the
former case there is method, in the latter
there is none. 1t is to this iudiscrimi-
nate crossing that we owe the present
degenerate races of barnyard fowls, since

The first cross may be useful if proper

layers or table fowls. If only q few can
be kept for home consumption, then we
would advise that crossing b. not at

The Serious Accident Which Befell
Foreman Campbell.

The Serious Accident Which Befell
Foreman Campbell.
Yesterday morning Alexander Camp
bell, foreman of the Southern Pacific
company's machine shops, met with a
serious accident while crossing the San
Fernando street yard. He was walking
along one of the tracks close to the
depot. when locomotive backed down
toward him. In order to get out of it's
way, he stepped sideways on to another
track parallel with that he left but at
the same moment a switch engine at
tached to train of empty coaches ap-
preached from the opposite direction to
the locomotive, apparently unnoticed
by Campbell. who stepped right in front
of it. A shout of warning was raised by
few persons who witnessed the acci-
dent, and Campbell Jumped back, but
he was too late, as the beam of the switch
engine struck him and knocked him
down. He was rolled for few feet
along the ground before the train was
brought to standstill; but as soon as
possible he was picked up and carried
over to the depot. Drs. F. X. Aims
worth and G. w. Lasher. the company's
surgeons, were summoned, and upon
examination it was found that Campbell
had sustained fracture of the left leg,
and several minor injuries. He was
conveyed to the Sisters hospital, at
which place he was, reported as resting
comparatively easily last night.
Campbell has been in the employ OF
the Southern Pacific company for the
past twenty-five years. He is an expert
engineer, and a faithful and respected
employee.

One of the great drawbacks to the
honey industry is disease called foul
brood, which is considered incurable,
and unless diseased colonies are de-
stroyed it is a mere question of time
when an apiary becomes worthless. The
state law, as it now reads, affords very
little protection to the bee men, and as
regards it's enforcement, it is optional
whether the county supervisors appoint
bee inspectors to look after the laws
enforcement. To remedy this, G. N.
Wilson reported bill to the association
that will materially alter the existing
defects of the present law, and it is the
purpose of the association to appeal to
the present legislature TO effect this
change.
The evening session was devoted al
most exclusively to the display of api-
cultural implements. Exhibits by j.

vide for Their Protection.

vide for Their Protection.
Attorney J. d. Bicknell and Super.
visor Davis have at the instance OF the
supervisors of Orange and Los Angeles
counties completed the composition OF a
proposed bill, which will be submitted
to the present legislature, providing
methods of relief from, and prevention
of, damage to land and overcoming the
lmpossibility OF cultivating it, when ii
is subject to the overflow of water
courses or their change of channel. The
supervisors claim that this is the most
important measure brought up for sew
eral years, from the fact that if its pro-
Visions are carried out, it will make the
hundreds of acres of good land which
are now liable to be damaged by floods
from water ways and arroyos.
In brief, the bill provides for the form
ing OF districts for protection, upon ap-
plication of fifty resident freeholders, il
majority of the district shall vote in
favor thereof. 1t further provides for
the election of directors to manage the
districts it provides that the matter as
to whether bonds shall be issued or the
money raised by direct assessment shall
be left to a vote of the resident free
holders of the district; it provides the
full machinery for the assessment and
collection of taxes to raise the money to
carry out the objects of the law; it pro-
vides that the directors shall cause the
channel OF streams to be Strengthened
and levees built, and gives them the
power of condemnation OF lands.
