TO PROTECT RANcHERs.


DR.. Woodbridge's Bill to Regulate the
Sale of Fertilizers.
Mr.. S. NJ. Woodbridge, Ph. D., wishes
to get the Legislature to pass an act
regulating the manufacture and sale of
fertilizers. The bill he has drawn up Is
as follows:
l. That every commercial fertilizer
which shall be offered for sale in this
state shall be accompanied by an analv-
sis stating the percentage therein of
ammonia or its equivalent in nitrogen !;
of potash in any form or combination,
soluble in distilled water; and Of phos-
phoric acid in any form or combination !;
the portion of phosphoric acid soluble
in distilled water; and that portion solu-
BILE in neutral solution of citrate of
ammonia, not exceeding 100 degrees F. !;
and that portion of phosphoric acid not
soluble in either of the above named
fiuids, shall be determined separately
and the material from which the phos-
phoric acid is obtained, shall also be
stated; legible statement of such
analysis, together with the net weight
of each package, shall accompany all
packages or lots of 100 pounds sold, OF.
fered or exposed for sale.
q That the chemist of the college of
agriculture shall be the inspector of
fertilizers; it shall be his duty to ana
lyze one or more samples of everv kind
of commercial fertilizers coming within
the provisions of this act which may be
offered for sale within the state, aud of
which he shall be informed. 1t shall.
also, be his duty to publish, in tabu-
lated form, the results of his analyses :,
stating the name of the manufacturer
or manufacturers, and the percentages
of plant foods found by the chemist in
the samples analyzed.
3. That manufacturers, dealers and
all persons interested NAV obtain an
analysis by notifying the chemist of the
college of agriculture, upon which notifi-
cation he shall be authorized to analyze
at his discretion samples selected by
himself, and to furnish certified copies
of such analyses to the person on whose
application they were made.
4. Thet the chemist OF the college of
agriculture shall receive for each certi-
fcate OF analysis made by him upon
the request of manufacturers, dealers or
other persons interested, sum not to
exceed SO for each determination, to be
paid by the person applying therefor.
5. That the sum of $1,000 be and is
hereby appropriated for the use of the
chemist of the college of agriculture, to
be expended as he shall deem fit for
carrying out the provisions of this act.
6. That any person selling, Offering
or exposing for sale any commercial
fertilizer without the analysis required
by the first section of this act or with an
analysis stating that the said fertilizer
contains large percentage of any one
or more of the constituents mentioned
in said fret section than is contained
therein, shall forfeit $50 for the
first offense and $100 for each subse-
quent offense; provided further that the
provisions of this section shall not ap-
ply to any manure cold at a price not
exceeding one-half cent per pound.

Peach Tree Cuttings.

Something new in the matter OF
propagating peach trees comes from
Louisiana. The man who does this re-
sides in Monroe county, and has an
unusually fine orchard. InFpropsgating
peach trees from cuttings he begins the
work in the spring, when the sap'begins
to rise, by cutting off the end OF the limb
back where it began growing the year
before. This point is indicated by a
ring around the limb.
On this limb are the buds which
make the bloom. When it has been
cut off and aharpened it is planted from
eight to twelve inches deep. Long
rows of these twigs are planted each
year, and the result is very gratifying.
De says he invariably gets good trees
from one-balf or three-fourths of the
cuttings, and last spring when the sea-
son was very dry and unpropitious he
secured trees from half of the cuttings.
Trees from cuttings are absolutely
certain to produce the same fruit as
that on the tree from which it was cut.
He considers his plan much easier than
budding and advises all fruit-growers to
try it, Irrigation Age.

Matters.
PASADENA, Jan. 7.-Our worthy street
superintendent, @. @. Brown, voices his
troubles in semi-official communica-
ton to the Star this evening. From the
tone of the said communication this
most worthy gentleman has decided to
assert himself as the street superinten-
dent of this city. He points out as an
example of the dire calamities that may
befall the transgreesor the arrest of two
reputable citizens" and the extracting
therefron the sum of S. each for allow
ing hedge and tree trimmings to lay in
the street and declares his indomitabe
intention of pursuing the careless hedge
trimmer to the bitter end regardless of
results.
All persons having street signs or
awnings within shooting distance from
the sidewalk should also be on the look
out for the aforesaid superintendent, for
he has gore in his eye.
LEFT HIS DEBTS BEHIND.
@. A. Upper, the confectionery man,

Monday evening, and has not been
seen since. The stock and
fixtures in his establishment were put
up at auction this afternoon but failed
to bring a sum anywhere near the
amount Of his debts.
His sudden taking off will prove a
severe blow to some of our good church
people whose confidence had been
gained, much to their subsequent sorrow.
