the orchards and burned. Old trees
which no longer bear and which can
not be renovated, should be dug out and
burned. Younger tress which do not
bear should be closely pruned, the
rough bark scrapsd of, and chen be thor
ouglyisprayed with s,roug solution of
soap and water. Undesirable varieties
should be grated to goodbearing fruit !,
care being taken to select cions from
tress known to be good and regular
bearers.
Plan to sertiliZs the orchards thor
oughly in the spring. 1t cannot any
more produce fruit without aid than
other fields can produce grain without
fertilizing. Potash and phosphoric
acid is probably what the orchard most
needs to produce good fruit. What
ever nitrogen is needed may be Sc
cured by growing and plowing under
crops of clover. Plan to cultivate and
fertilize the orchard for three or five
years, to discover whether or not
larger and better crops may not thus
be secured. DIR. G. G. Croft, in Inde-

Respectfully,
G.. A. LAGRAVR,
State Controller.

State Controller.
Carson City, New, May 6, 1896.
Hon c. 4. LaGrave,
State Controller Of Nevada,
Respected Sir:
Answering yours Of today as your
queries involve questions never judi
~ciOusly determined in this State, and
they being of more than ordinary i'm
portance. I shall give you not Ohly my
opinion but the reasons therefor.
In our nearest sitter State, Calif"r-
MIA. under a constitution OF which that
of Nevada is an almost verbatim copy,
the Lient-nant Governor has actually
succeeded to the 'ofice" of Governor
upon the death o r resignation of the
elected Governor 10 several instances,
and the right to SO succeed has not
been questioned, and though from Il
cursory reading of those two Constitu-
tons one would naturally suppose tn at
it had been the intertion Of the franz
ers OF both Of those Constitutions to
provide for IA regular succt s-iOn to the
oiliCc VI W iIot III 4 SVbtt'S VI
this character; tbs error, if error it
be, is natural, especially in view Of the
unquestioned succession to the office
of President of the Uuitnd States under
the Federal Constitution. Still one is
forced, as it were, to the conclusion
that if an actual succession to the Of
flee Of Governor was contemplated it
would have been so declared in at
least as positive terms in the State
Constitutions as are found in tho Ed
eral relating to the Presidential sue
cession. But we find by a careful
reading hat it is not so declared.
In the Constitution Of the United
States the declaration is almost posi-
tive that the office itself Of Presi-
lent shall ~''devolve" upon the Vice
President. Con. =. s. Art. II, Sec. g.
whilst 10 the State Constitutions OF
both California (Con. Cal. Art. V. Sec.
~ and Nevada (Con. New. Art. V, Sec.
49, and likewise of several other States
it is "the powers and duties IF the Of
fee" only that shall "devolve upon
the Lieutenant Governor" In some
States the "emoluments" also of the
Office ''devolve." but not in Nevada.
And further it is noticeable that all Of
the D. sible contingencies enumerated
aud provided for ia the Constitution
of Nevada, viz. impeachment, remov-
al. death inability to DISCHARGE the
duties. II x X resignation or alb
sence from the State of the Governor
are placed in the same category and
the same provision in ore sentence
made for each, all and either contin-
gency, whether the same he permanent
"a iD case of death. or temporary only
as in case Of al sence from the State OF
the el-cter Governor. And by such
sentence all that ''devolves' upon the
Lieutenant Governor are the ''powers
and duties OF the office during the res
l-ue of the term or until the disability
shall cease Hence the Lieutenant
q vernon is in exactly the same posi-
ton whether the elected Governor is
in condition to resume the ''powers
and duties of his office" or not.

The Philadelphia Press makes the per-
tinent and timely point that when "the
crime of 1878" was committed silver was
per cent. higher than gold. and there
fore the demonstration of silver was
manifestly a benefit to the debtor, mas
much as it made gold the money OF
account in which to settle debts. This
seems to us a complete answer to the
clamor over "the crime of 1S73," for the
crime, if crime there was, was against the

The summer solice is upon us, and
there is at least six weeks ahead of warm

causes everybody but base ball players
