"The Nevadillo blanco and Manzan-
lilo. These excellent varities were se-
lected in Spain by Professor Pondorf
and imported to this state. They were
propagated at the experiment station of
the University of California, and with
others of the new varieties distributed
throughout the state. In 1890 Professor
Papsrelli OF the university made oil and
pickles Of some IL varieties including the
Mission. As the result of his labors he
selected the Manzanillo as the best for
pickles and the Nevadillo as the best for
oil. Bulletin 90, issued by the station,
gives his detailed report. The Manzan-
lilo is large; the bitterness is
easily extracted the pit is very small !;
while it is especially adapted for
pickles it makes an excellent oil; The
tree bears young and heavily; it ia one
of the earliest to ripen-October and
November. The Nevadillo is about the
size of the Mission, but has a smaller
pit; might be classed as medium size;
ripens about the same time as the Man
zanillo; some four to six weeks earlier
than the Mission; the tree is very ro-
bust and vigorous grower, and is re-
markable for its resistance to black scale
where that pest prevails it has a record
as heavy bearer; it succeeds in this
state in cool and hot locations, on heavy
soils and on poor and sandy soils. In

GREAT Profit In Lemons.

We are informed by M. H. Price, a
Chicago merchant who has arrived from
the east this week, that the California
lemon crop will figure in the eastern
markets, especially in Chicago, more
prominently this year than ever. Mr..
Price says that the man in Southern
California who has bearing lemon
orchard and knows how to properly cure
and pack the fruit 30 as to sell it in the
heat of summer, when people crave acid
drinks, has veritable bonanza in any
year, but the man who has now such a
property and has knowledge of proper
lemon curing this year has literal gold
mine. 81 was told last week" I"
said Mr.. Price, "by John Will
kins, the best posted and most
experienced wholesale fruit dealer in
Chicago, that because of the ruin by
frost and sleet OF the Mediterranean
lemon crop and the holding OF the
worlds fair in Chicago next summer.
California lemons will certainly go to
$40 box, and possibly to $12 and $13.
All Chicago fruit men say this will be
the greatest year for lemons since the
centennial OF 1876, when lemons sold for
months at $15 box in every eastern
city. am told there are number oi

A RED-HAIRED CHINESE.
Mish Cos Queue a Not Black and He ]
Consequently Abhorred.

Mish Cos Queue n Not Black and He Ie
Consequently Abhorred.
Chinatown boasts of a great rarity,
says the San Francisco Examiner, in q
full-blooded Chinese who is probably the
only red-headed one on the face of the
earth. And what is more, the Chinese
has light complexion and blue eyes,
and he is cross-eyed.
Mish Go, as is the freaks name, was
born in China of Chinese parents about
80 years ago, and came to San Francisco
a year ago. He is Stunned and disliked
by the great majority of his countrymen.
"Sheepeye" is one of the nicknames
applied to him because from the Chinese
standpoint his eyes resemble those of a
sheep more than those of a human be-
ing. Mish Go lives in one of the dens
of Spofford alley, and is never seen in
close association With other denizens of
Chinatown, except when he goes to GER
tain stores to dispose of cheap trinkets,
by which means he acquires living.
The reason of the Chinese being held
in such disfavor was explained by Wong
Who, fortune teller, who daily occu-
pies portion of the sidewalk on Wash
ington street, above Dupont. "Very
many years ago." he said, 'there was
another red-headed Chinaman in China.
He lived there SO long ago that no one
now living had ever seen him. Chew
Fut was his name, and he was tall and
fair of complexion. From some cause
not pleasing in the eyes of one of the
numerous gods, Chew Fut was known
of all over North China, where he lived
and grew to manhood.
One day it was disclosed to few of
the faithful that this particular Chinese
with the red hair must die, but it was
not explained by the deity why. 1t is
not known to this day why the order
was disobeyed, for no steps were taken
to end the life of Chew Fut, and 30
fearful vengeance was wreaked ON the
people. A terrible earthquake occurred,
and the waters Of the sea overhowed
the land, engulfing thousands of inhab.
itants, who were carried out to sea by
the receding waters and drowned.

Returns from Oranges.

H.C. Snow of Tustin has sold crop
of oranges off of his seven.acre orchard,
on the trees, for the handsome sum of
$500. This amount pays Mr.. Snow
over IA per cent on valuation of $500
per acre or $25, 900 for the seven acres.
This is an enormous sum Of money for
so small piece of land, but the crop of
fruit this year has paid him handsome
per cent on such valuation. From 100
acres of such an orehard-the size of
most eastern farms-the annual income
would be $4,000, and the value of the
farm would be $780, 900. On this valua-
ton the income from the fruit would
pay over IA per cent. From the above
figures it can be more readily under
stood, especially by easterners, why peo-
pie here are always advised to purchase
small farms, say from to 10 acres. A
fve-ecre fruit farm in California is equal
20 100 acres in the most favored portions
of Ohio, Indiana or Illinois, devoted to
agriculture, 30 far as profit on the in
vestment is concerned. If anyone
doubts this let him do little figuring
and then compare results. .-[Santa Ana

Root Knot.

The disease known as root knot is
making rapid progress throughout the
state, but as yet there is no satisfactory
solution of the cause. 1t attacks decid-
uous trees, on the roots, and is in the
form of an excrescence or tumor. A
tree will have every outward appearance
of being entirely healthy, butif attacked
with this disease will soon die. 1t is
found among young trees as well as old,
and no young tree that is at all affected
should be set out. r. Fl. Wilson, one
of our nurserymen, has made an examin-
alton and it is his opinion that it is
caused by cut worm. A careful ex-
animation of young tree with knot,
showed that in the center OF the knot
was hole. About an inch above the
knot he found small worm had bored
hole into the tree, and that the sap
was coming out. This may be the cause
of the disease. II 80 remedy can be
found. lie will experiment for q remedy.
The advice to not plant trees showing
the knot ia good. Great care should be
taken to burn all affected trees.-L Mon
