The Call has discovered that the
Texas side of the city has a margin
of $13, 1000 more to issue bonds on,
and says sewerage would be good
investment to place it in. You have
long head, Charlie, but we think
the main sewer should be built first
the one that is to receive the
dumpage of those sewers already
built-and then the city can take
its time on the other.

And for q Market We have the Whole

If one had predict I'd, only twenty
years ago, that Idaho would have
within its borders one of the finest
grape and wine producing spots in
America; as 6ne possibly. as there
is in the world, he would have
been laughed down the wind"
1t would have been predicted at
once, that the soil and climate
were both against the proposition;
and indeed. the generally conceded
conditions governing them. totally
negatlved the idea Of producing
nything less hardy than apples
and potatoes. The wine grape de-
mands a warm, moist soil: a long
warm season for generation; and a
subsequent long, hot and warm
one, for the perfect ripening and
maturing Of the berry. That such
could be found in Idaho would
have exceeded expectations. New
ertheless, the conditions do exist,
and, as is satisfactorily demon
strated, in abundant quantity and
quality.
Four miles east of Lewiston,
,-vine-culture in Idaho has had its
demonstrated success. though it is
experimental in many other local.
tiles. There are located two adj
joining vineyards, those Of Hon.
L. A. Porter and Mr.. Robert Sch
leicher, on which, almost simulta-
neously, grape culture as an indus
try was established. The situation
is slightly different, the former
property being in the bottom, and
the latter on a bench somewhat
higher. The soils are practically
the same, the somewhat irregula,
advantage attaching to Mr.. Sch
leicher's vineyard that it is entirely
free from frost, while Mr.. Porter's
vines are subject to and have suf
fered slightly from frost.
The soil is sandy with mica
having alluvial in the bottom, ane
is redeemed by irrigation. There
is. practically, no timber there, nc
sleighing. and strawberries are
picked in December. Gardening
begins in February, and all kind:
Of produce from low temp 2ratur<
to semi-tropical . grown. Ont
Of the difficulties encountered i,
the vineyards is the too rapit
growth Of the vines, which neces
states considerable and constan
work in cutting them back.
On these estates Mr.. Porter ha
81 varieties of grapes; and Mr.
Schleicher has something NOR
than 80. mostly imported cuttings
the chief among them being Ros
fte Peru, Brack Hamburg, Musca
Pf Alexander, Tokay, Black MOI
rocco and Malaga; the leading dc
nestle varieties are Concord, Cal
awba. Delaware and Rogers Hy
BIRDS. None of these, except Cor
cord, are adapted to high colore
wines, owing to the coiorless ns
ture of the skins, so light wines al
indicated as the leading if not tn

In the matter of sparkling wines
different treatment is necessary.
Rocl; candy is added to the wine
after its first presentation, and it is
then packed and the bottles placed
in rocks, bottoms up, until the
last sediment o, lees is deposited,
when the corks are pulled without
disturbing the bottles and other
corks inserted. They are then left
to mature; and when ready for con-
sumption are probably purer and
certainly more pleasant to the
taste than any imported champaign.
1t will not be long now" said
Mr.. Porter, until the vicinity of
Lewiston will supply the whole
northwest with wine. Already
large quantities have been shipped
to connoiseurs and leading families
in St. Paul and other places. Wine
drinkers have agreed without a
dissenting voice in pronouncing it
excellent and bestowing upon its
producers very fattering encour-
agement.

Hardly. The expense Of car
rying wines is very great, and
there are not many ranchers or
small farmers in the neighborhood
of Lewiston able to meet it. Be

there is no one but who prefers tc
sell his grapes green and besides
that not many growers care to take

Mr.. Schleicher has devoted {

NOR in the story of his remarkable devo-
ton to his strange idea, and his fine elab-
Grafton of the plans for sailing into one
of these entrance ways. 1t occurred to
him that when he reached the entrance
he would have TO turn a very sharp corner
to proceed from the outer TO the inner
sea, which he expected would carry him
into the bowels of the earth; and as he
feared, the sudden change of direction
would wrench his masts from their fasten-
ings, he planned his craft with jointed
masts that might quickly be lowered to
the deck. Luckily for Symmes, he died
before he was rudely awakened from his
dream by an unsympathetic world.
Though we as yet know very little of the
interior of the earth below a few thousand
feet not a few scientific men are devoting
a great deal of time to finding out all that
can be learned about IL. They have found
the upturned edges of rock strata lifted
into the air, though they know that at
some remote age this rock must have
been buried 10000 feet under the surface.
They have learned a good deal ABOUT the
entity frozen soil, and they have found that
excellent wheat lands north of Manitoba
overlie frozen earth that never thaws
But, after all, what they are able to ex-
anime in the earth beneath our feet is
hardly more than what pin prick on the
skin of an apple shows of the fruit within.
The result of this imperfect knowledge is
that there are more theories among scien-
tine men with regard TO the interior of
the earth than about any other problem
of physical science,
