The Culture Of Peanuts.

The peanut crop OF Southern California
is not to be snAezed at. 1t is growing
every year, and there are great many
men who get the livelihood for their
families, while their orchard property is
becoming productive, from sales OF their
crops OF peanuts. The market price for
peanuts has been six and seven cents a
pound for many months, and for time
was eight cents a pound. At those
prices there is from sos to $50 an acre in
a good peanut crop. The vines can be
easily grown between the rows of trees
in young orchard. without damage to
the trees. In fact some horticulturists
claim that peanut growing in an orchard
enriches the coil by the decayed vines,
and that the soil is kept in good condi-
tion by the frequent cultivation of the
crop.
A well-drsined, loamy soil is best for
peanuts. Their culture is quite simple.
The variety known as the California
White is considered the best. Plow the
soil to q good depth, harrow down
smoothly; plant in rows three feet
apart, and drop one nut in place, with
20 inches distance between, cultivate
thoroughly, not later than they are well
in bloom, leaving the soil fine and mel
low around the plants. Do not cover
the flowers, for, when the plants are
ready, the flower stalks will bend down
and enter the ground, where the nut
forms. Be sure and have good fresh
seed, crush the shells of the nuts as
they are dropped and cover the same al
corn.-[ Pomona Progress.

Food Tor Frnit Trees.

Without manure of some kind but few
orchards, except for the first few years
after planting, will continue to produce
the quantity and quality OF fruit which
they would if properly fertilized. The
custom of general farmers is to give
manure to crops yielding the quickest
returns and neglect the orchard. Some
even argue that an orchard planted on
poor soil will produce equally as fine
favored fruit in ss large quantities as
trees grown on the best soil.
Fruit trees are like their owners-they
not only want something to eat, but like
something good, and where the soil does
not already contain what is good and
wholesome for them to subsist upon,
then manures that will furnish it must
be applied. There is class OF manures
which is suited to the growth of wood,
and still another especially promoting
fruit. While young trees are maturing
they should always receive manures
which will produce rapid growth,
80 that q large size may be at
tanned by the time fruit is produced.
They will not bear as early as when
not msnured, but will yield so much
more that no time, or at least no profit
is lost, and good foundation is laid
for lasting and more valuable orchard.
A fruit tree makes three demands on
the soil--for the wood, for leaves and
for frpit--and if these demands are not
satisfied in the soil it will be necessary
to apply fertilizers.
Hardwood aches contain the elements
required to form sound. healthy wood.

these seven states will rest content with
only IA United States senators? | do
not believe that he believes it. What is
the remedy? There is only one ans
wer. 1t is very plain. 1t is very sim
ple. 1t is very easy understood.
II is: More states will have
more senators. There is the
whole question OF state division in q
nutshell, Self-deiense on the part of
the people of the Pacific coast will COM
pei them to divide the large territories
of the present states into smaller ones in
order to give themselves their just,
proper and equsble representation in
congress.
So thought the founders Of the state
of California, who sat in convention in
old Cotton hall, in Monterey, when they
framed the first state constitution in the
year 1649.
Hon. L. w. Hastings, as chairman OF
the committee on state boundary. re-
ported:
Your committee is of the
opinion that the present boundary OF
California comprehends tract OF conn-
try entirely too extensive for one state.
The country within the bounda-
must ultimately be divided into severa
different states"
Hon. w. M. Gwin said: "If we in
clude territory enough for several states
it is competent for the people and the
state of California to divide it hereafter
And the past history of our
country, sir, develops the fact that we
will have state upon state here-proba-
bly, as many as the Atlantic side-snd as
we accumulate states We accumulate
strength; our institutions become more
powerful to do good and not to do evil.
/ have no doubt that the time will come
when we will have 20 states this side OF
the Rocky mountains. / want the pow
or, sir, and the population. When the
population comes they will require that
this state shall be divided"
The population is coming. Division
is at hand.
Nor is ths movement confined to Cali
fornia. Eastern Washington and
northern Idaho, physically one, want
political union, and will ultimately get
it. Other such demands will come in
time. until, no doubt, Gwin's prophecy
will be fulfilled.
In taking an antagonistic position on
state division, Mr.. Estee makes him
sell an obstacle TO the progress OF tne
Pacific coast. He has taken the wrong
side, and itly represents the silurian
city by the Golden Gate and its contin-
gent territory.
On the other hand, Mr.. Kinney is not
a lawyer. He is gentleman of culture
and travel. He writes in plain, terse
manner, and has doubtless prepared an
array of facts which Mr.. Estee will find
it difficult to controvert.
Mr.. Kinney and Mr.. Estee are the
pioneer debaters on the question. Their
papers will be read by keen eyes and
digested by critical minds. They will
each have their partizans but above all
the thinkers will investigate their state
ments, analyze their reasonings, and
form those judgments which will mold
public opinion, and mass the voters for
the final battle.
State division ia now a public ques-
ton. No longer can it be evaded by
cringiDg politicians nor omitted from
party platforms. 1t has come to stay,
and it's affirmative side is supplied by a
mass of brain and Drawn, and bank that
will carry it to successful issue.

and hence are the most economical ma
nure for young trees. Leaves by the
time they fall have returned their best
part to the tree, but still some loss occurs
when they are blown away. Where an
orchard is protected and the leaves decay
on the ground, these elements are finally
used by the tree without loss. Though
very important to retain the leaves, it is
rarely done. After trees get old and the
fruit is the main object, we should give
such manure as will produce fruit. A
compost of forest leaves, mold and stable
manure is valuable to the orchard at all
stages of its growth. So are bones dis
solved in ashes and then both bone and
ashes applied to the land.--[Fruit

FROM OKLAHOMA.
Twenty five Thousand Men, Women and

Twenty five Thousand Men, Women and
Children Make For the strip.
ORLANDO, OKLAHOMA, September II.
Twenty-Five thousand men, women
and a goodly number of boys and girls
started in the race into the strip at the
sound OF carbines held by cavalrymen,
sharp at noon yesterday. Hundreds
went In on trains which were jammed,
but the grand rush was by horse and
wagons.
Thousands of people, despairing Of
making a successful race In the great
lam Of people at Arkansas City, came TO
this place, and the total number which
invaded the strip from here must have
besn in the neighborhood of $4,000.
Following the excursion trains, freight
trains hauled great quantities OF house
hold goods and lumber to the new
towns. TEN porary residences and shops
were made of tents, but the canvas
houses will soon give way to wooden
structures.
Near Black Bear, northeast Of here,
the dead body of James Reardon, of
Milford, Mass, was found on the prairie
after the rush. He had been stabbed to
death, and the weapon with which the
crime had been committed was found
sticking in his breast.
Further north the dead body Of w.
D. Blake, supposed to be from Gaines
Vile, Texas, was found. He had been
shot through the heart. 1t is not known
whether he was murdered or shot by &C.
cident.
The dead body of Madeline Granger,
of Terra Haute, Ind, was also found on
the prairie. There were no marks OF
violence upon her body, and it is be-
lieved she died from natural causes.

erection Of buildings.
Campfres dot the prairles In all direc-
tions tonight where the home seekers
have established temporary camps. The
recent drought has closed up streams,
and those who failed to provide them
selves with water were forced TO endure
suffering from thirst, for water is OBJ
tainable In only few places on the
strip except from the rivers.
DR.. Gallagher, OF the general land Of
fee, has received instructions from
Washington to keep the registration
booths open until further orders, and to
issue certificates TO all who were unable
to obtain them before noon to-day.
An old man named James h. Hill, OF
Kingborn, n. j., was shot and instant
ly killed by soldier at the southwest
corner Of the Chiloso reservation. He
started into the strip before the signal
was given. The soldiers warned him
to stop, but he did not heed their orders
aud they fired upon him. The sum OF
$500 was found upon his person and it
was turned over TO the sheriff.
There were many runaways and some
few break downs, but the first half hour
Of the rua at Caldwell passed apparent
ly without serious accident.
The first train into the new Cherokee
district was pulled by engineer j. u.
Scottburn, who has been thirty-three
years in the service OF the Rock Island
road. The train was composed Of
thirty-fye stock cars, and every availa-
Bile foot Of space was taken.
The train was run at the rate OF If
teen miles an hour and was slowed up
every five minutes to allow those who
wished to do so TO jump off aid make
the race for neighboring claims on foot.
An hour after the opening the scene was
quiet one again. Away in the dis
tance, three or four miles perhaps, COW
cred wagons were seen moving slowly
along, leaving their trail Of dust be-
hind. No horsemen were visible; they
had long before passed out Of sight.

MISS ESTHER
Little Miss Cleveland Has = Future Be-
fore Ber. According to the stars.


New YORK, September 17.-Little
Miss Esther, the new American prin-
cess Of the house of Cleveland, has a
future before her that is romantic, and
career that is distinguished, il the
portents OF the stars and the signs OF
the heavens are TO be trusted.
Her horoscope has been cast and the
whole planetary system seems to have
done iss prettiest 10 give the new baby
place in future American annals.
This is what the astrologers said at the
conclusion OF her study. 1t is indeed a
fortunate nativity.
The baby has four planets near q con-
junction In the mid-heaven. She is
destined to arrive at great eminence, TO
become noted aud prominent like her
father. She is fated to be we'll made,
rather tall woman, most closely resem-
bling her mother, of compact aad grace
full frame. She will be of light CON-
plexion, brown hair, with high
forehead and deep, expressive eyes,
her hair will fall we'll back
from her temples. Her nose will
be prominent, her features clean
cut and dainty. The planets tell OF
courteous and gentle disposition. Good
nature, mildness and charity will be her
chief characteristics. The forecast OF
the early part OF her life shows sickness
and trouble OF a critical sort. Up 10
the age OF FIVE she will be continually
In delicate health.
Though her danger In early life will
be great, the sun, the giver Of life, Is so
strong in the mid-heaven, that there is
little doubt that she will live to q good
old age. She will take place in public
affairs, in all probability, and has
much better chance OF becom-
ing the first "lady Of the
land" than her older sister. Her
resem blance to her mother will extend
into inner characteristics, for besides
being intelligent and cultured she will
be refined in the highest degree and
noted for her good, sound common
sense. Like her mother, again, she
will be a woman and have hosts OF
women friends, all of whom will be
very fond of her. Wealth she is certain
to acquire, II not through her own
mental exertlons, through her marriage
at anY rate. The planets say that this
event will not take place before she Is
"a, and that she will enter the marriage
state only once. They will have no
more than three children, and they are
likely TO be boys, but there is danger Of
two OF them dying in infancy"
1t is altogether very glowing career
that is depicted for the young Miss
Clavalaad

The Distress and Loss OF Life Greater
Than AnticIpated-A Tale of Horror.

Than Antioipated-A IAle OF borroT'
MADRID, September 1.-THE dlstres s
In the flooded districts OF New Castle
continues and the loss OF life is greater
than anticipated. Fresh storms and
continued downpours OF rain delayed
the departure OF the relief trains des-
tined for the villages which have suf-
fered most.
Starvation is staring the inhabitants
of many towns 10 the face.
This is also the case with
parties OF villagers who have been
driven from their homes by the floods,
apd who have sought refuge on
neighboring hills, in their ef-
forts to escape the rising waters.
Some of them we're lucky enough 10
take away sufficient food to last sew
sral days. Others escaped with their
lives only, and have been living on any
thing they could pick up ever since they
sought refuge on the hills.
The suffering in the neighborhood OF
Villa Canas is said to be terri
bic, and the tales told OF
the horrors witnessed about the
fatal cave where hundreds OF inhabit-
ants sought refuge is almost beyond
discrlption. Some OF tho caves In
which the terror stricken inhab-
itants OF Vllla-Canas sought refuge
were fairly choked with corDses OF men,
women and children. Abont eighty
bodies have already been recovered, but
this number is said to be far below the
actual loss OF life.
Many villages ir the vicinity OF Villa
CaDas, which had escaped the first
floods are now inundated and the work
of destruction continues without any
signs OF sbatng.
At Romeral. two hundred houses are
destroyed and many others are sub
mereed. Business In the flooded dis
tricts is entirely suspended and will re-
main so for some time TO come.
Large forces OF troops have been sent
TO the distressed neighborhodds with
provisions and pontoon corps, but the
still rising waters interfere seriously
with the work Of relief.
Great damage has been done IN other
parts OF the penInsular plantation vine
wards. and buildings in the vicinity Of
Salemanca have suffered severely and q
large number OF cattle have been
drowned. All the boats procurable
have been placed at the disposal OF the
government 10 assist in the work oil res
cue and relief, and everything else that
can be done TO assist the unhDppy peas
ants is being done on all sides.
