Hop Culture.

Professor r. III. Mcdowell Of the
Experiment Station, has planted a
quarter Of an acre to hops and pro.
poses to give hop culture thorough
test. California produces about 15, 900
pounds to- the acre the first year of
planting and quarter Of an acre will
be sufficient to demonstrate whether
hops can be profitably cultivated in
this valley or not. Professor Nc
Dowell has planted them right out in
the open where the wind can do it's
worst, in order to test the matter
thoroughly:-Reno Gazette.

TIE ADMISSION or UTAM.

The bill for the admission of Utah
as State, which passed the House OF
Representatives some time ago, has
been reported favorsbly by the. Sem.
ate Committee ON Territories and
placed on the calendar. No attempt
has been made in either House to an
mex Utah to Nevada, though some
goldbug members, early in the ses-
sion, advocated the union.
Congress could not annex Utah to
Nevada without the consent Of the
people Of Nevada though the organ
izers of the Reno Repubicsnstho"ssht
otherwise. The Constitution of Nc
vada defines the boundaries Of the
State. The Constitution cannot be
changed without the consent Of
majority of the qualified electors of
the State. If the people did not
want Utah, Congress could not COM
pei them to accept. In this case,
however, there was nothing to indi-
cate that Utah desired to be annexed
to Nevada, and the only sentiment in
favor of annexation in Nevada was in
the eastern counties Of the State, and
even there it was not very strong
Reno Journal.
Well, tits an old and trite saying
that you must go away from home to
hear the news. The sentiment"
spoken of above only existed in the
IMAGINATION of certain papers in the
western part Of the State, who con-
tended that because, when the propo-
sition was first preached by an East
ern Senator who knew about as much
about the affairs of Nevada as the
Emperor Of China, the papers in the
eastern counties" did not at once op-
pose it, they were in favor of the
move. AS the annexation proposition
was only an imaginary one, with no
prospect of becoming active, it would
have been time thrown away to make
a great bluster in it's opposition,

A BIOLOGICAL QUESTION.
Is Kitten Afraid of Dog the First Time
1t Sees One I?

Is a Kitten Afraid of a Dog the First Time
1t Sees One?
That seems like very simple ques-
ton, and doubtless many of our young
readers will be prepared to answer it
offhand with perfect confidence. Yet
they should not be too sure for men
whose lives have been devoted to the
study of animals differ widely in opin-
ion on the sub ject.
Some of them say that kittens are
terrorized even by the smell of dog
before they have got their eyes open.
Others assert that fear of dogs is some
thing that kittens require a little time
and experience to imbibe. And this
question is being debated in scientific
circles just now.
The question is really an important
one in biology, because it is held that
if kittens are born with fear and dis
like Of dogs. it must be an acquired in
stinct which has descended to them
from their ancestors. and when the
biologist gets on the track of anything
of that kind he generally succeeds in
drawing some highly-interesing infer
ences.
But in this case the biologists them
selves are not agreed as to the facts,
and so here is chance for everybody
to do a little scientific observing of his
own, with possibility that if his OBJ
serva tions are carefully and properly
made he may help to lay the founda-
ton for a small addition to the halls OF
