With a prOnged hoe work about the
trees that are not thriving until the soil
is well fined about the trees five or six
feet in every direction and lOosening the
soil and filming il as much as possible to
the depth of ten or twelve inches While
doing this work in six or eight pounds
of bone dust Finely ground raw bone
Work this in thoroughly so it will be well
mixed through the soil Just so soon as a
good saturat ting rain occurs. mulch about
the trees with pine straw or anything that
will act as mulch.
If you can procure it just before ap-
plying the mulch broadcast about the
trees evenly and five to eight feet in
every direction, one ana half to two
pounds of nitrate of soda Or YOU
might add three or sfour pounds of
cotton seed meal to the ground bone and
work it in to give the trees a good start
of. Next season you will doubtless see
the young trees enter upon a proper
growth, This fall draw the mulch away
from about the trees and broadcast FIVE
10 six pounds of kainit in like manner as
suggested for the nitrate of soda or eight
or ten pounds of rotted oak and hickory
ashes can be substituted for the kainit
From time to time examine the trees for
the bOrer. Keep the mulch away from
the trees in December and January so as
to let the freezes have their ameliOrating
effect upon the clay soil. In February
after good working of the soil about the
trees draw the mulch back to them and
let it stay there all during the summer.
In the winter protect the trees from the
rabbits ana keep an eyeOut for the borer

Tho Trottipr OK.

Next to the elephant in general useful
ness we should be inclined to place the
"trotting OK" Of India. Gan Indian oxen
can ba trained to trot,' says Mr.. Lock
wood Kipling. "The sloping quarter and
straight hook may possibly account for
something In their more horselike gait.
One Of the first things to strike q stranger
IL the hurry1ng OK" The rekla, a light,
two wheeled cart, drawn by a pair OF OK
en-, cheap, speedy and convenient, Is the
hanson cab of the natives Of Bombay.
All through the Mahratta country the
OK is the common draft animal, differing
in speed and size according to the work
for which he is required. Cattle Of the Ma
gore breed, used by rich men to draw
their state carriages, used to be kept near
Delhi for carrying dispatches. Mr.. YOU
att was informed that they would travel
with q soldier on their back Is or 16 miles
In the day at the rate of 8 miles an hour.
The Nagore cattle have none Of the
awkward swinging motion of the legs of
the English COW. They bring their hind
legs under them In as straight a line us
the horse. "They are very active" con-
tinues Mr.. Youatt, 'and can clear q five
barred gate with the greatest ease" One
owner possessed a calf which would jump
an iron railing higher than a gate, and a
bull which would leap the same railing to
go to water and having drunk leap back
again.-London Spectator.

Arrivals at The He'enn.
Pious ~Canuibalism.

A criminal ceremony exists among the
tribes of the interior of Sumatra, which is
without doubt the survival of an ancient
and very cruel custom that has passed in
the course Of time into a civil and religious
duty. These people, although of rather
gentle disposition, piously and ceremoni-
ously Kill and eat their aged parents in the
belief that they are performing a sacred
duty. At the appointed day the Old man
who is destined to be eaten goes up into a
tree, at the foot of which are gathered the
relatives and friends of the family. They
strike the trunk of the tree in cadence and
sing a funeral hymn. Then the old man
descends, his nearest relatives deliberately
kill him, and the attendants eat him. With
some people animals take the place of hu-
man victims.

Physicians' Visits.

A club in u Russian town is composed
of 1875 families that employs, at a cost of
so cents a month to each family, a physi-
clan, who. visits the households at stated
intervals 10 look after the health Of their
members. If his advice and watchfulness
do not keep them we'll, he attends them
without further charge, through any ILL
ness. ....."
In this time of increasing tendency to-
ward s~pecialties in the profession Of medi-
cine and surgery it is difficult to think
that such Il system will ever prevail here
in America to any great extent, yet a New
York physician was heard to remark not
long ago that he considered this the only
rational way to practice the healing art
and thought that future generations would
see 1t universally established, Undonbted-
~ more illnesses can be prevented than

able stopcock to much costly ~imprudence.

too great for feline lungs to COPE with.

THE SEWER COMMISSION.

The experiences at Govan prove that
the subso1l of city may be polluted by
noxious gases. In that place, in the use
of compressed air to tunnel under streets,
the subsoil gases were forced upward and
occasioned much sickness. The cesspool
system, no matter in what soil used.
tends to poison the earth and charge it
with these disease breeding gases. The
sooner a city abandons the cesspool sys-
tenn, therefore, the better, for the more
the city grows the worse the evil be-
comes.
The year is slipping away and Sacra-
mento has as yet no report from its sewer
commission as to what ought to be done
here. The commission is acting only
semi and is without compensa-
ton. The gentlemen composing it are
public-spirited, and give their time and
talents to the work of investigation free
ly. But in the light of the experiences Of
other cities we submit that it ought not
to take months to report in favor of some
system adapted to this city. We believe
the chemical deposition plan to be best
and more economical for Sacramento;
but we are not tied to it. What the REC

THE NEED FOR IT.
Says the Maxwell lfereuru:


Apropos to the Good Road Convention to
meet at Sacramento on September 1th, we re
mark that we are In favor of good roads and
have seen some of the best on the continent.
but they were not made by a convention
Any section that is willing to pay for good
roaGs can get them.
That is the old. old song. Why. neigh
Dor, convention was necessary to found
the Republic; it took convention to put
California into the Union: convention
was at the bottom of all the liberties you
enjoy; convention put on foot the reform
that gives to all men equal rights before
the law; convention framed the Decla-
ration of independence. OF course a con-
vention will not build roads. But it will
bring men of ideas together to consult as
to what good road is. As it now is the
question 'what is good road?" would
be answered in about as many ways as
we have counties.
In convention only can there be ex-
change of ideas, comparison of data, and
the communication of intelligence in a
compact form concerning the advances
made in what is now recognized as
science-road building. Are you not
aware, neighbor, that in the matter
of road construction there have
been made in recent years exceeding
great advances2 We wish to consult
about them. to ascertain how far they are
applicable to California conditions. We
wish to learn what are the obstructions
in the way of good road building in this
! State. It is desirable to create public
! opinion of the right brand concerning
the influence good road agitation will ex-
ercise in upbuilding this State, and aug
menting its prosperity.
The convention IS the popular tribunal
that tries public sentiment. 1t is by con-
vening that we can best consult with one
another in order to secure harmony OF
action. OF course, we repeat, the CON
vention will build no roads. But the
simple fact that such convention con-
venes will do an immense work for Cali
fornia in Eastern estimation. The coun-
ties might, tits true, build good roads as
it is, without any convention to discuss
methods and economics in that direction.
But they do not do it, and for the simple
reason that nine out of ten of all our
counties are away behind science, dis
covery and accomplishment in other
.r.
the people interested in roads need to
consult, and not once but several times
| i'll convention.
