upon beneficial Insects to free infected
orchards of the red and black scale,
says the Rural Californian. The Rhi-
zobii have proved ntirely inadequate
TO cope with the emmy, and the Presi-
dent and Secretary # the Society made
strong pleas for artificial fighting of
these pests, and particularly was fumi-
cation with hydpcyanic acid gas re-
commended and endorsed. Its use
promises to be gene,al the coming sea-
son throughout the citrus groves of
this section wherever scale insects have
secured a foothold Viewed purely
from a commercial point of view its use
is a money making proposition. Scaly
fruit is at best drug ON the market
and always brings low price. Wash
ing is often practied to render such
fruit marketable. In cases where it is
resorted to the fruit is thereby more or
less injured; besides, it costs more to
clean it than it would to have fumi-
gated the trees anC thereby freed them
and the fruit from scale insects.

will cost $22 900. OF this the super

$4,000. A popular subscription is
raising the remainder.
The trouble in the Companions of
the Forest has resulted in the secession
of five officers of the Grand Lodge
Treasurer Bohem, Subj Chief McLane,
Inner Guard Boyd, Left Guide Hum

these officers the representatives of the
following circles will doubtless be up
held in their action in leaving the con-

Pride of the Forest and Enterprise
circle, of Oakland, Queen of the Red

of Stockton, Garden City Circle of San
Jose, Ramona Circle of San Diego and
Sunshine Circle of MERGED.
Owing to difficulties being placed in
the way of the Valley road securing
the necessary rights of way its entrance
into MERGED is being delayed and its
progress between MERGED and Fresno
retarded. Track is now laid within
two or three miles of the town of Mer-
ced, but few individual property
owners are barring its entrance into
the town, owing to the unreasonable
demands made on the company. As
the matter stands, it will probably be
ten days before MERGED will be able to
celebrate the advent of the Southern
Pacific Companys competitor. All
track-laying has been virtually sus-
pended. Had there been no Interrupt
ton the road would have been already
completed into MERGED.
The grain firm of C. A. King & Co.,
of Toledo, o., has received 4 1858 crop
reports. The prospect for winter wheat
is very favorable in Kansas and most of
Missouri and Illinois fair.
Indiana is becoming worse and prom
lses less than three-fourths of an aver
age crop, owing mostly to the Hessian
fly. Ohio will have trife over half

Recent rains have been beneficial.
Kansas and Missouri show slight i'm
provement. Illinois and Ohio show no
change. Indiana suffered materially
from the Hessian fly and drought.
Michigan had an excellent prospect,
but some sections say they are badly
damaged by the Hessian fly. The
harvest will average ten days earlier

There are three rules to govern the
adaptation of fertilizers to crops:
/. Foliage or lea. producing plants
require liberal use If potash and nitro
gen. When color and cheapness are
desired, the sulphite is superior to
muriate.
?. Fruit or seed-producing plants
need more phospLoric acid and less
potash than the preceding.
3. Root crops are particularly bene-
fitted by the use of potash. They re-
quire more phosphoric acid than under
/, and less than under 2.
The following shows an analysis of
fertilizers:

IL may be worth while to note a state

which suggests method of avoiding the
difficulties experienced during the cold

plumbers, he pointed out that water

vacuum. Why, then, he asked, could
not plumbers invent vacuum pipe? A
space even an eighth of an inch of a high
vacuum would be sufficient. Inclose

WORDS FOR THECANAL
Action of the House Commerce
Committee.
NICARAGUA DITCH IS FAVORED
Government Aid Advocated Even AT n
Cost OF Over One Hundred
Million.

Washington.-The report of the ma.
Jorlty OF the House Committee on Com.
merce in favor of the Nicaragua canal
signed by nine members, was sinh.
mltted to the House the other day nv
Sherman of New York. 1t deals with
the canal project from the financial
and engineering standpOints, and mar
ticularly analyses the report of the
Government board of which Colonel
Ludlow was chairman.
The questions proposed for the board
are said to have been the feasibility
psrmanence, and the construction of
the canal. The first two questions are
said to have been definitely settled in
the Affirmative. The notifications of
the company's project suggested by the
board are said to look to results desira-
BILE at some other time, but which the
company deems bestto defer until the
demands of commerce REQUIRE larger
accommodations, so that they may be
accomplished when the canal is in
operation and revenue accruine to
make the charge less onerous.
To have charged the railroad system
OF this country in its incipiency with
the cost Of the heavy superstructnre
and equipment now in use would have
been injurious. The deepening and
widening of the Suez Canal after its
building is quoted as a precedent. The
report impeaches the committees esti-
mates of unit prices of work on the
canal by exhaustive quotations from
statements of engineers. Whether the
depth of the canal and harbor shall be
thirty feet at the outset, whether four
locks shall be used instead of three.
whether the water elevation should
be ITO feet instead of 106, and other
differences between the commission
and the company are said to be details
depending upon whether the policy of
making provisions for all demands in
all time to come is adopted.
Because of its testimony ON unit
prices, the report reduces the estimates
OF cost on the basis of the boards plans
from Sl3S, 100000 to $102, 900, 900,
but holds that 800, 10000 will be
ample appropriation. Stress is laid
upon the prospective benefits of the
canal to the Pacific Coast States and
the Allegheny coal mining and iron
interests. In conclusion the report
says that the board of engineers have
stated that they believe the canal en-
tirely feasible, but differ with the Ell.
gineers of the company as to the proba.
BILE cost of the work. The advantages
OF the canal are so great that the re.
port says the canal should be built by
Government assistance to the company
even if it costs over $3.50, 900, 900.

Planting Sugar-Beets.

To those who wish to experiment
with the sugar beet, little instruction
may not be amiss.
Prepare a space about sixty-six feet
square, pillow deep and pulverize the
soil before planting. Sow the seed
after the rains in April or May, using
one pound of seed to one-tenth of an
acre. Sow in row eighteen to twenty
one inches apart; sow with a drill and
just deep enough to be covered by soil.
Thin the beets out as soon as they
develop four leaves, leaving the strong
est or most vigorous ones, allowing one
beet to six or ten inches of space, ac-
cording to the richness of the soil.
Keep the soil loose by cultivating be-
tween the rows until the tops cover the
ground. Beets should ripen from 1870
to 100 days from time of planting.

A new pest that infests pear trees
has been discovered in Fresno county.
1t received discussion at a recent meet
ing of the Board of Horticulture of
that county. The Republican" re-
ports the matter as follows: THE
most important matter brought before
the meeting was new pest which
infests pear trees. So far as any men,
Der of the board could ascertain, this
pest now makes its appearance here
for the first time. Early in the spring
it bores into the leaf bud, deposits an
egg, and later this egg matches into a
beetle. The twig and full description
of the workings of the beetle, so far
as could be ascertained, were sent to
the State Entomologist atSan Francisco,
and he was invited to visit Fresno and
make an investigation, and suggest a
remedy"
