lions upon which certain foreign insur-
ance corporations, associations, partner
SHIPS or individuals may be permitted to
transact insurance business in the State
Oh California, was taken up for the third
feaQlng. An amendment by McGowan
10 limit said companies to the transac-
non OF fire insurance only, caused the
usual storm.
LSenator Flint in the chair
senator MCGOWAN took the floor and
scored the bill in vigorous speech. He
SAID the bill was no stranger 1t had been
before the California Senate many times,
and had always met with just defeat
upon the proposition to allow foreign
companies to transact marine insurance.
The aim of the bill, and the joker in it,
was to choke the small home companies
TO death, and thus do away with present
competition. TO allow wealthy foreign
companies TO transact marine insurance
business meant the freezing out of homo
companies now engaged in that business.
once let the wealthy foreign companies
get clear field, and insurance rates
would climb so high that they would
bankrupt the policy holders. At first
glance the bill would seem to show that
the millennium had arrived, but under
meath the millennium cloak of peace, love
and charity, peeped the cold, grinning
mask of sOrdid avarice and gain. The
=
deposit OF 5000, 600, as that action would
more fully give them their first hold
upon the Threats Of home companies,
which would furnish the only COMPETE
ton if the bill passed without the amend
ment.
Senator Bert stated that the object of
the bill was TO oblige foreign insurance
companies to make a deposit to cover
their policies outstanding in the State.
lie said that similar laws were now upon
the statute books of the States of New
York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, etc.,
and that similar bill mad passed the
Legislature at the last session, but was
vetoed by the Governor.
Senator MCGOWAN said it was Just and
proper that deposit should be put up
and he was opposed to the bill only on
the ground that IL would drive out the
small companies now doing business in
the State.
Senator Ford regretted that he could not
support the amendment, but he did not
think it would be the right thing to do.
Senator GleaveS also opposed the
adoption of the amendment.
roll-caiI being demanded. the amend
ment was adopted by vote of II to II.
Senator MahOney changed mis- vote and
gave notice that he should move to recon-
slider the vote by which the amendment
was adopted.
senator McGowan raised the point of
order that motion to reconsider could
only be made upon the final passage Of a
bill. and the point was sustained by the
Chair.
The bill was ordered to print.

IT IS NOT CREDITABLE."
Los Angeles Times.

1t is pleasing to note that the question
OF good roads continues to attract much
attention throughout the country. The
convention which has been in session for
couple Of days III Sacramento will
doubtless bring out some new ideas and
lead 10 some good work. 1t is not
creditable to the great State of California
that we should be 80 backward III this
important line OF development, which
has received so much attention in the last
few years from sections OF the country
that are not nearly so much favored by
nature as ours. As one of the delegates
to the convention at Sacramento re-
marked, California ought TO have the
best roads in the United States. Unfor-
tunateIy, however, as we all know,
she has not. In fact there are COM
paratively few highways in the State
that are worthy of the name. Per-
haps, if the conditions for road-mak-
ing we're not as good as they are in
California, we might have better roads.
1t IS, however, q very poor excuse to
make that nature has given us natural
roads throughout the greater part Of the
State. That should be an inducemeut
for US to do more and build thorough
fares that would be the admiration Of the
country.

A fracture Of some blood vessel back
Of the eyes is probably the cause, but
how this was brought about or why it
should have occurred simultaneously in
each eye cavity is unexplained.
The eyes themselves evidently lost all
life at once. for not only was the sight
completely lost, but the eyeballs rapid
ly showed signs of degeneration, and it
became necessary to remove them

TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.

In calling our next association to
meet at Butler, April ID, we feel
assured of the same hospitable well
come which greets us at all points,
as one of the most pleasant meetings
in the history of the association was
held with the Butler people about a
year ago. Our most progressive
teachers still manifest a most com.
mendaDle interest in all that pertains
to the betterment of our schools. As
We go about our work in this line,
we are forcibly reminded, sometimes,
of the poet where he says:
''some were born for great things,
Some were born for small;
And some-it is not decided
Why some were born at air.
But earnest effort and intelligent
preparation will do much to solve
this problem. To aid in this prepar-
alton, and for the purpose of develop
ment and culture, has been and is
one of the chief aims of the associ-
alton. That ''good seed" is being
sown on a fruitful sol. is plain to all
observing minds. We dare not hope
but that some will fall by the way
side and upon stony ground, yet
there is no doubt that some will fall
upon good ground and bring forth
good fruit-to this end we work.
The program as presented below
promises to be both pleasing and in
instructive. Come one and all and
give us cheer and courage by your
presence and help.

At the Missouri swine breeders con.

were as follows:
A small number OF pigs at the first

ment Of a sufficient number of teats, SC
that subsequent litters will not be sup
piled with milk for the whole number
Of pigs One speaker suggested the plan
Of borrowing pigs from some other SOW
in order that a good development might
be secured for a particularly fine SOW.
AS TO the care needed for a brood SOW,
1t was agreed that this should begin
some time before narrowing. Good feed,
not too much corn, plenty Of exercise,
coed quarters. The sow should become
used to the place where she is expected
TO farrow some weeks before. After the
narrowing care should be taken not to
feed too much at first. Give wholesome
~diet-bran, some slops, not too rich
diet, for thereby our in the pigs may
be brought on. As as pigs begin to
eat prepare a trough apart from the sow.
Wheat meal, bran, shipstuff and milk
were all considered good.
Many remedies for lice were given.
Coal oil or crude petroleum was used;
also an ointment made of mercurial
ointment 10 ounces, sulphur 4 ounces,
carbolic acid 8 ounces, oil of penny
royal IL ounces, a quart of grease.
Melt, mix and stir till cold. Use by
rubbing on the posts in pen or by satu-
rating a rag and lacking the same to
the posts Of pen in reach Of pigs, They
will rub it On themselves. Crude petro-
leum vas recommended very highly to
give to hogs. Mr.. Vivion said he kept
1t by the barrel. Several others gave
very satisfactory results from its use.
