New way to Pack Oranges,

Orange packers have yet got consider
able to learn in placing their fruit on
the market in presentable shape, says
the Courier. 1t has been thought suffi-
cient to pack all oranges in the regula-
tion box, numbered according to si2e,
and send the boxes into market. Some
have gone SO far as to use many colored
wrappers on fruit, their names on the
wrapper in glowing colors, that is
neither artistic nor attractive. When
the box is opened by the retailer and a
customer wants one or more oranges, he,
she or it, is not satisfied to take them as
they come, but must handle over at
best half dozen for every one pur-
chased, picking up and throwing back
till the box, even when fairly packed,
looks like lot OF culls before half
empty.
All this should be prevented, and
Duarte genius has hit exactly upon the
right thing by taking pattern after other
fruit packing. He packs dozen in
box and crates the boxer. When cua-
toner wishes few oranges there are a
dozen neatly put up in handy package,
ready for him to take home, and though
he only wanted three or four, or half
uOz6n al InoSb, Uu6y look so well IN Jh6lf
little box that he takes dozen under
his arm and goes home, to find the fruit
as fresh as when first picked and
packed, not beirg bruised or softened
by careless handling, in paving over''
large box by customer, who selects
his fruit from the lot, but injuries every
orange that he throws down in doing
80. In this way the customer buys
more than he otherwise would, being
tempted by the neat appearance OF the
fruit, and he is go we'll pleased with
the superior quality OF the fruit packed
In this manner that he often repeats his
call for a box on his way home. The
fret fruit packed this way was sent tC
San Francisco for trial, and it went like
hot cakes, and the dealer ordered all h,
could get from the grower, and to bt
sent on as fast as possible. This is no

The Apricot Crop.


The apricot crop is reported generally
as failure this season III the north half
OF the state. What lie the reason of
thisP Some say cold rains; others frosts
and rains, while not few lay IL to
wrong pruning, others to too much
pruning, etc. The cold rains, no doubt,
had great deal TO do with the fall Of
the embryo fruit supply for the reason
that the peculiar treatment the trees
had received, and the very general plant
ing of varieties in blocks so that they
can receive no other pollen than their
own, are the principal causes Of these
failures. During such cold, rainy spells
there is little chance for the general
dissemination Of pollen through the air,
and very few insects active to carry 1t
from flower to flower, and as it is we'll
proven that flowers own pollen is
not fully acceptable and fertile
to Its own pistil, we have the
one most common reason for such
failures as this, and the evidence is that
such orchards as do give crops after
these poor blooming seasons are those in
which varieties are intimately mixed.
Thus, Prof. Waite reports that the great
specimen pear orchard of Elwanger &
Barry, Rochester, N. Y, where there
are hundreds of varieties growing all
mixed up, planted with the trees very
near together. seldom fails to give full
crope. That orchard has long been noted
for regular crops OF the finest fruit, and
I know from personal observation that
1t ia not favored by a location free from
spring frosts; the reverse is true. 1t is
on low, frosty land. Yet these same va
rieties that Prof. Waite has proven not
to be generally fertile with their own
pollen will in seasons OF exceptionally
good blooming time give enormous crops.

The protit IN Eucalyptus Trees.

The months Of May and June are the
best of the year for planting groves OF
avenues OF the gum or eucalyptus trees.
Who would believe there is good profit
in acres of eucalyptus groves, where the
land cannot be we'll used for fruit or farm
puTposee? In some localities unusual
profits have been reported from the sale
Of wood from eucalyptus groves. Eu-
calyptuH trees four yeare old yield 40 to
go cords of wood to the acre, at SO per
cord standing, or 81 per cord cut into
four-foot lengths, on the ground. The
income, therefore, Ia $240 to $500 per
acre for the four years. growth, or 500 to
800 per acre year. Immediately after
the forest is cut down a new growth
arises spontaneously, much more vigor-
Gus than the frat growth, on account of
the large roots already formed.
The trees set out this month will grow
to height OF five to eight feet before
next winter, when they will resist all
the frost OF our climate. The cost OF
planting the trees ie small. II the rows
are 10 feet apart, and the young trees
four feet distant In the rows, IL takes
100 trees to the acre. The cost of young
trees, 10 inches high, Ia about go cents
hundred, or SO 60 per acre.
Eucalyptus wood makes excellent fuel,
valuable especially for burning brick,
heating steam boilers and manufactur-
ing charcoal. The eucalyptus is beau
tiful evergreen tree, and on account of it's
grayish, abundant foliage, and erect,
gigantic growth, ia valuable ornament
to our landscape, ifplanted along streets
and for shade. Groves and lines OF gum
trees make windbreaks, and are potent
factors in changing our climate, and af-
fording shelter and protection to young
orchards.
There are tens of thousands of acres Of
land in Southern California that do not
even realize an income sufficient to pay
taxes, because uncultivated. On such
lands gum trees ehould be planted.
After the frat year the tree requires alb
solutely no attention. 1t grows con-
stantly in all seasons. Pomona Pro-
