Uaea of Olive Oil.

DR.. Osborne, physician in the Califor-
MIA home for feeble-minded children,
presented paper showing the great
advantages following the free use of
pure olive oil in cases of nearly all chill
drens' diseases. 1t is highly nutritious
and readily repairs waste of tissue and
is easily assimilated. Freely rubbed
upon the skin it speedily allays fever,
reducing the temperature by absorption
in the skin. In cases of scarlet fever
its liberal use is of the greatest import
ance. The same may be said in cases of
measles and other ailments. The body
should first be sponged with soap and
warm water, and then have the oil
thoroughly applied by active rubbing.
In typhoid lever this treatment has
been found most effective. 1t is now
largely prescribed in cases of consump.
tion, instead of the nauseating cod liver
products 30 commonly used. 1t is bet
ter in every way and more agreeable to
the patient. 1t will do all the cod liver
oil can possibly do, and is far super u
to any animal oil for medicinal use.
Use olive oil freely in all nervous
diseases. In such cases the demand is
for food, not drugs. 1t is best to apply
tho oil to the skin, in all cases warmed
little above the natural heat of the
body.
Medical maxims are being reversed as
knowledge advances. Formerly it was
announced that feivers must be starved.
All advanced medical authorities now
say 'feed fevers." In most cases this
can be greatly assisted by using pure
California olive oil (no other is really
pure), either in the diet or as sn appli.
cation to the body in liberal quantities.

ols OF Barley in Ono Is.
.f NDsys' Run. 4

@. B. Mccoy, superintendent of the
Simi ranch. was in the city yesterday.
There is Q wonderful yield of barley on
that big domain this year and the boys
have had their work cut out to harvest
the super-excellent crop. The grain is
conceded on all sides by experts to be at
the top notch and the yield more than
usually generous.
There is q man on the ranch named
James Kelly who has had reputation
in harvesting that is not confined to his
immediate neighborhood.
He ran against time with his separator
last Thursday and turned out the as
tonishing number of 2093 sewed sacks of
grain. They each weighed 120 pounds
which made the run in round numbers
5000 bushels. This is regarded as a great
feat and Mr.. Kelly is wearing his honors
modestly. As5
The season has. been great one on
the Simi. The yield Of barley, it is be-
lieved, will average so sacks to the acre.
There are about 1000 acres in the cereal
this year. The land upon which the
crop has been grown is $40 an acre land.
A sample Of the barley brought to the
HERALD office yesterday was very fine.

plea fJr diversified farming:
''Ws must produce our own beef and

hope to fully realize our own natural re-

grain is drug on the market, and per-
haps he is throwing good money after

market improves; il he had two or three
hundred hogs to feed it to he could save
his storage expenses and get from six to
eight cents pound for his porkers on
foot. Another says he cannot get any
thing for his hay; if he had drove OF
sheep or herd of cattle, or hundred
or so of brood mares to feed it to, be

improve the hay market for his less

Pomona Progress: The grower OF ap-
sicots is again confronted with the aues-
tion of when and how much to prune
his trees. The opinion is rapidly gain
ing ground among those who have given
the matter the most attention, that the
proper time to prune apricot trees is in
the summer season, as soon as possible
after the crop is gathered. The reason
is that as soon as the tree has matured
q crop OF fruit, it at once begins to rest
from outward growth and get ready for
another seasons work. While in this
state the buds are formed from which
it's next seasons crop will be produced,
and it is waste of the energies OF the
tree to allow it to form anv buds that
are not to be permitted to grow. In
we'll established tree all the pruning
that is necessary is to remove broken
branches and shorten the growth of the
present season about one-third, cutting
back more or less according to the vigor
of the tree. This should he done as
soon as the crop is picked.
After the pruning, the trees should be
thoroughly irrigated, the brush having
been first gathered into small piles in
the orchard to be burned when dry and
the ashes used as fertilizer. The
custom of carting off the brush is an
exceeding wasteful one, bat care should
be exercised in burning the brush not
to injure the branches of the trees.
good superphosphate, containing only a
small portion of nitrogenous material, is
the best fertilizer for this period of the
year, ressrving the more stimulating
nitrogenous fertilizer for spring applica-
tion before and after blooming.
If the irrigation is thorough, and made
early in August or the latter part of July,
the trees will not need any more water
before the rainy season, if this is not de-
layed later than the 1st of December. If
the winter promises to be dry one,
they should have a winter irrigation
for, while the trees are apparently DOR
mant. the roots are not, but are getting
ready to push both leaf and blossom
into spring. If they are kept too dry,
they will fail when the proper time
comes, resulting in a deficiency Of the
crop.

Heart Failure No Longer Accepted.


The registration and sanitary commit
tee Of the board of health has addressed
the following notice to the physicians Of
the city:
"As the board of health is doing all in
its power to prevent the spread of con-
tagious diseases, you are requested not
to place on any certificate heart failure
as the cause Of death. but the disease of
which the patient was suffering prior to
the heart failure. This term has never
been placed on the list of diseases adopt
ed by this board, 1t being looked upon az
result Of some other illness from which
the patient was suffering. Furthermore,
it furnishes an opportunity 10 conceal

or designedly. 9 ae
Hereafter q burial permit will not be
issued on the certificate of death of
