l'he Discovery of Haymaking.

How and when men first learned to
make hay vii! probably never be known,
says London journal. For haymaking
is a "process' and the product is not
simply sun dried grass which has been par
tialv fermented, and is as much the work
of mems hands us flour or cider. Prob
ably its discovery was due to accident; hut
possibly man learned it from tile pikas,
the ''callin9 lares OF the steppeS, which
cut and stack hay for the winter. That
idea would tit in nicely with the theory
that Central Asia was the ''home of the
Aryan race, If we We're still allowed to
believe it. and haymaking is certainly an
art mainly plactised in cold countries. fol
winter forage. Probably there are 10
meadows in the world 50 good as those in
England, or SO old. Yet from the early
Anglo-SaX"n times, old meadow mas been
distinguished from ''pasture and has
always been scarce. Two-thirls of what
is now established meadow land still
shows the marks of ridge and f,rrow; and
from the great time required to make Il
land. 100 years on the worst men have
always heen reluctant to break up old pas
ture. The ancient meadows, with their
great trees and close rich turf. are the
sole portion of the earth surface which
modern agriculture respects and leaves in
peace. Hence the excellence of the mea-
dows in England, and the envy Of the
American.

A fine OF so cents for contempt OF
court is not very onerous tax upon the
pocket OF the average citizen who goes
to law, and when that sum was assessed
against James Monroe, by Justice Shaw,
yesterday morning he smiled and paid.
The case did not involve a great
amount OF money, but the litigants had
Just ae much vexation of spirit out of
it, as if it were complicated suit over
riparian water right.
About the beginning of the year,
James Monroe sued ]. w. Foster for the
possession OF land which the latter had
entered upon, as Monroe alleged, il
legally. The parties to the suit lived at
Calabasas, which has the reputation Of
turning out more litigation to the
square inch than any other place in the
country. The land was located near
Calabasss, and both sides proceeded to
get very hot in the collar over the legal
proceedings. The case was tried before
Judge Shaw, and after quite long trial, /,
a Judgment was rendered against Foster,
who was directed to turn over the land
to the plaintiff. He hated to obey the
order, and fingered in possession OF the
land go long that Monroe became impa-
tient, and had Foster brought before
Judge Shaw on a charge of contempt OF
court in not removing from the premises.
The contempt proceedings were in May,
and Foster got off with an order direct
ing him to vsmoose from the property
and pay the costs of the contempt mat
ter, which amounted to $22 35. He went
back to Calabasas, very much out OF con-
ceit with law and courts of all kinds, ,and
did not pay the costs. The whole neigh
borhood was more or less in sympathy
with one side or the other. and the suit
and its side issues were fruitful theme
of discussion at Calabasa0. Time went
on and on until two or three
weeks ago, when Foster was brought
again before the court on charge OF
contempt in not paying the costs of the
former proceedings. He had given up
the land in the meantime and moved to
Les Angeles, where he now lives. He
fought still, but had about. had enough,
and yesterday morning came into court
and paid the costs. After they were
paid, the court brought up the question
of his fine on the second charge of con-
tempt, and, while Foster was awaiting
in fear and trembling fine that would
cause him to go deep in his pocket-book,
Judge Shaw relieved his mind by assess
ing the fine at 30 cents. He paid it, and
said that he would be blowed if anybody
caught him at Calabasas again.

a suoeerrnaean Lake.

During the moving of heavy thrash
ing engine across the Opper farm, eight
miles northeast of Clyde, in Sandusky
county, O., recently the wheels became
mired as ii in quicksand, and it was left
there till morning. During the night it
had sunk gradually until only the top OF
the smokestack was visible. A derrick
was hurriedly obtained, and the engine
saved from total loss. The phenomenon
caused borings to be made. and water was
struck at various depths. Soundlngs were
made, and subterranean lake was dis
covered. An extreme depth of $50 feet
was reached. The place is known as the
Rush prairie, is destitute of soil and vege-
tation, ard the rock is of porous, honey
combed nature. Near the south boundary
of the barren tract, in a depression of the
ground, is a spring $50 feet in diameter.
The existence of numerous underground
streams has long been suspected, and it
was thought that these were feeders to the
remarkable mineral sulphur spring at the
village of Green Spring, in the same
county.

Deciduous Fruits. i.

Many statements have been published
about the yields and receipts for decid-
uous fruits in and about Pomona. The
Times of that place publishes the follow.
ing statements, which are good reading
for eastern corn and wheat farmers:
Mr.. M. W. Cobban's place OF five
acres is on Cemetery street, near Towne
avenue. He has just about three and a
half acres-not rod more-in six-year-
old bearing apricot trees, which have
never been irrigated. OF these three
and half acres he sold apricots to
Loud & Gerling for $776 81 and enough
to other parties to make the total re-
ceipts $Sl0-a little over 1921 per acre.
P. S. Martins place is on Ninth street,
west of Hamilton avenue. He sold
Bartlett pears from one acre to Waters
& Ford for 1915.
J. w. Brown of Guthrie, Oklahoma,
has ten-acre tract in the southeast part
of Pomona, on Phillips boulevard, in
fruit. Thatcher & Mccain paid him
$1652.54 for the pruues grown on six
acres-a little over 1915 per acre. The
other four acres are in pears and apples,
and Mr.. Brown says that the receipts
from these fruits, though not all sold,
will swell the amount go as to net him
5000 per acre for the ten-acre lot which
ia short by land being taken on two
sides for streets.
Mrs. J. A. Howe of Lordsburg has five
acres of prunes. She has just sold the
crop to Thatcher & Mccain for $S74S0--
just $172.96 per acre. Her trees have no
irrigation.
M. D. Franz OF Lordsburg has 12O
prune trees-about one acre and quar-
ter. He sold the fruit from these trees
this year to Thatcher & Mccain for
$227.13. or over s1S1 per acre. The trees
have no irrigation.
W. S. Young, near Lordsburg, has
three acres in prunes, and sold the crop
this year to Thatcher & Mccain for
$553 30-or $1S4 40 per acre. Trees new
er irrigated.
The report made some weeks ago that
Mr.. /. Bristol's five acres of peaches on
the west part of the Chino ranch
5-year.old trees, never irrigated, would
bring 5000 per acre, was made before the
| peaches were ripe and on estimates
given by the buyer. The orchard is less
than five acres by 30-foot street, anC
one full row 40 rods long was reserved
from sale. The peaches were sold on
the tree for 1926 cash, go that consider
ing the fruit reserved and short acreage
the net yield was surelyI$125 per acre.
Trees never irrigated.
MIR. j. w. Stringfeld has IL acres in
fruit in the southern part of the city
From FIVE acres of 5-year-old trees OF
prunes he received $710.50, and from
two acres of apricots and half acre ol
miscellaneous fruits 500, and there is
still about $50 worth of apples to be
sold, making just about $751; per acre
The reader will bear in mind that this
orchard is quite young.
H.J st. John sold his prune crop ol
II tons from PIG trees to G. A. Loud fol
$765-just about $400 per acre. This
orchard is in the Kingsley tract.
M. ]. Simpsons place is at the corner
of Ninth street and Hamilton avenue
He sold the prunes from six acres to G.
A. Loud for trifle over $280O-a little
over $466 per acre. Who can beat this
All the orchards referred to are in Po-
mona or near by, and the fruit from
them was handled by our dealers.
