SCALE BUGS ON THE DECREAsn.
In conversation with l. N. Rafferty,
one of the horticultural commissioners
a HERALD representative was informed
that the red scale which has worked
such havoc in the orchards OF this
county, was being eradicated and would
in year or 80 be entirely cut off here.
The gentleman said that in orchards
which two years ago were badly affected
with the red scale, and in which fumi.
CATION had not been resorted to, the
scale had entirely disappeared.
The damaging reports which have
been going about recently in regard to
our vineyards. are for the most part un-
true. While some traces OF the Ana
heim disease are yet visible, Inspector
Pierce says that the condition of the
vineyards in Orange is improving.
The fruit crop 10 light this season, but
the quality is excellent, and with proper
prices growers will make no complaint.
Orange is pre-eminently horticultural
and viticultural district.

prominent citizens attended.
The great attraction was az to whether
or not the board would make fufther
appropriation towafds keeping In the
Orange county exhibit. It was pener-
ally believed that two OF the superyieors
were against the proposition, and so a
warm tight was expected. Addresses
we're made by large number, nearly
all OF whom favored the matter and
thought it advisable for the board to
make further appropriation.
The petition presented to the board
was signed by $50 taxpayers, and asked
or 5000 of an appropriation. After a
discussion of nearly two hours Armor
moved to deny the petition and Hawkins
econded the motion.
Yoch moved to amend by allowing
1866. .46, and Schorn seconded the amend.
nent, which was carried, Schorn, Ted
ord and Yoch voting aye, and Hawkins
md Armor no. The result was received
vith applause by those present, and
orange county's exhibit will be main
aimed.

losed was denied.
