Succession of Fruit.

1t is very desirable to have succession
of fruit on a large fruit farm, so as to be
able to handle something through the
season continuously. To the man who
puts up large dryers this is even more
necessary than to the shipper of green
fruits. for he cannot afford to construct
costly apparatus to use merely one
month in the year, which is about the
time of any one variety OF prunes.
Neither can he cure large crop of one
variety in the brief time of its becoming
ripe without great labor and embarass-
ment. 1t is easier done in California,
where fruit can be sun-dried, than
where evaporators are in use.
The Peach plum comes in so as to be-
gin curing August lst, but is no longer
dried, and the Petite prune usually be-
gins to fall about August Goth, and con-
tinues for six weeks, but mostly ripens
from August 25th to September 18th,
one months time. The Columbia plum
usually comes in about August 10Th to
Goth. Claude de Bavay and the Silver
Drune comes latest of all and sometimes
do not fully ripen until October 10Th.

Ordered to Vacate Military Reserves

Lieutenant JOHN L. Sehon, of the U.
S. Army, stationed at Vancouver Bar
racks, Washington, has been making a
tour of the sound in his official capac-
ity, giving notice to occupants of the
government military reservations to
vacate the same. Persons occupying
these lands are given until the fifteenth
of September in which to vacate and
remove their improvements as far as
possible. The law, as we understand it
is, that any person or persons failing to
obey the order of removal is liable to q
fine of $4,000 and one years imprisOn-
ment, besides the destruction of such
private property as may be found on
any of the military lands, at the expira-
ton of the time given will be liable to
destruction by authority of the govern
ment. The order under which Lieu
tenant Sehon is acting, eliminates
directly from the war department and
applies to all the military lands reserv-
ed in Washington. What object the
government can have in view, that
causes the present course to be taken we
are unable to find out, but we are in
formed that the orders under which
the government officials are acting are
imperative and will be strictly enforc-
ed.

Wages and Silver.

From its bearing on one of the most
important questions of the time, it is
interesting to note the comparison be-
tween wages aud silver. From the unit
of 100 in 1860, wages increased to 1889
in 1880, payable in gold or in paper, or
silver, at par with gold. From 100 in
1860, the gold price of silver bullion fell
to IA in 1890. Therefore, in 1890, with
wages at 1889 and silver ia, a days
labor exchanged for more than twice
the amount of silver bullion that it eX-
changed for in 1860. Or, conversely, an
ounce of silver bullion purchased less
than half the quantity of labor in 1890
that it purchased in 1860. Considering
that money is exchanged for labor more
than for any other one thing, the rela-
ton between the silver question and
labor questions stands out in bold re-
lief. The money question of the day is
a labor question. Will the history of
1S6O-lS65 in deprecated currency and
reduced earnings of labor be repeated?
