The case of the Rev. a. 3.
Savage. recently superintendent Of
the Indian school at Perris, CAL, j,
shows the opportunity for stealing
which dishonest man has in srch
q position. An examination Of his
books shows that he began his
thefts as soon as he was installed
in his position and continued them
until he fed to Mexico. The regu-
lar examination of such an institu-
tion ought to have revealed some of
these frauds. but this inspection
was probably as perfunctory as the
examination of State banks.

APRICOTs.

The apricot grows aud natures
upon the lands of the Salt River
valley to as great perfection as it
does in any aection of the coast,
and with intelligent management
can be made just as profitable. In
an article on the apricot in Cali
fornia, the Los Angeles Times has
the following:
"The apricot is one of those fruits
that succeed specially y we'll in South
ern California. The section along
the coast from Santa Barbara to
San Diego is peculiarly adapted to
the growth of this fruit. In Ven
tura county it has been made much
of a specially, but it succeeds vel!
all over Southern California. Some
of the returns that have been re-
ceived from apricots in this section
during the past few years have
been remarkable, and are not at
all behind the profits of orange
growing. Thus at Ventura one
grower harvested 100000 pounds,
or sixty tons, OF dried fruit from
forty acres, and sold the crop for
$4,000. A man at North Ontario
sold his crop of royal apricots from
three acres for over $1,000. The
crop from two acres at Pomona
sold for $63o. Several trees at
Azusa averaged 700 pounds Of
apricots each, for which l cent per
pound was obtained.
There is no fear that the produc-
tion of aprlcots will be overdone.
It is fruit which comes to per-
fection in very few sections. In
Europe it is grown in some sections
on the Mediteri anean, but not to
an extent that can compete with
the orchards Of California. The
taste for apricots, whether fresh or
dried or canned, is one that rapidly
grows. 1t is only few years since
this fruit was comparatively un-
known to the people Of the East,
but they have already become very
fond of it. There is no doubt, as
wc have stated, the apricot is des-
tined before many years to become
one of the leading products Of the
State.

A MAN who expects to engage in
fruit raising in a hap-hazard, slip
shod manner will leave success be-
hind him. In order to succeed in
the business o man need to inform
himself upon every detail which is
necessary to insure success. Con
cerning the thinning of fruit a hor-
ticulturist of years of experience
gives the following as the result of
his observation: It is universally
understood that the proper thin
ming ont of fruit will help to give
a greater quantity and much better
quality, and that it is not only
good practice for market-growers,
whose profits depend on good,
evenly-graded fruit, but that it
pays from every point of view in
private orchards. One advantage
OF thinning not generally taken in
to account is explained by Prof.
Taft in the current number of the
American Agriculturist. A tree
which is allowed to ripen too great
q number Of fruit will be weaken
ed, so that it will not he able to
mature fruit buds for next years
crop, and the tree will then waste
half its time in recovering. The
flesh of the fruit is largely water, it
10 true, but the seeds contain much
mineral matter, and when we re-
member that q bushel of peaches
from trees in which the fruit has
not been thinned contains three
times the number of pits which a
bushel does from the thinned trees,
we can see what a draught this
makes both upou the soil and upon
the tree, aud how it helps to ac-
count for the irregular bearing and
the premature exhausting of or
chards. Peaches, plums and other
stone-fruit trees are particularly
liable to injury from excessive
bearing, but other fruit trees are
injnred in the same way, although

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than Others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
ative; efectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation:
Tt has given satisfac tion to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid
news, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and ST. bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs
and being we'll informed, you will moi
accept any substitute if offered.

Judging from the numerous COM
plants, the city is overrun with fakirs
of all kinds. Following close upon the
swlndling methods of the man who sold
alfalfa for tea to East Side housewives,
there comes a meaner man who deserves
punishment.
He goes to residence where he knows
the man of the house is absent, and ex-
plains that he knows him and his old
acquRintances in the east He says he ia
very tired after having tried go hard
to find the place and is invariably in
vited inside by the lady to rest awhile.
The lady finally becomes interested in
him when the swindler states that he
came around to get $1.50 from Mr.. So
and So. He would receive q draft from
the east the next day, he said, when he
would promptly return it. And, max
ing a move to go, he would say that ne
was sorry his gentleman friend was away
from home.
This WAS too much, and for her hus.
bands sake the lady would kindly Iet
him have tho $3.50 upon faithful
promise that it would be returned the
next day.

with big black bow and a bunch of

Mr.. Hinckley added that his wife had

advice to compromise the case as the
