still bearing. A tree in California will
bear some fruit the fourth year from Its
planting in the orchard, and when it is
eight years old it will bear nearly four
boxes of fruit each year. When it Is
| twelve years old it has reached it's full
vigor; but it is not for twenty or more
years yet that 1t begins to show signs Of
old age. The oldest known lemon tree
in California is that in the mission gar
dens at Santa Barbara. 1t was probably
planted about 1921. 1t has a good foli
age and looks strong and sturdy, but it
has borne only dozen or so lemons in
the last fifteen years. When it was
twenty years old it bore half ton of
fruit in one season, but not Of good
quality.
The largest lemon groves in Southern
California are in San Diego county,
where 1t has been found that the prox
unity to the breezes from the ocean. the
light, frlable soil, and especially the
mild, even temperature all the year
round, combine to make that an ideal
region for growing and curing the best
lemons sent out of the state. Among
the people who have invested small
fortunes in growing lemons in San Diego
county are U. S. Grant. jr., Jesse Grant,
ex- United States Minister William E
Strong, ex-United States Senator Cole
and Charles Nordhoff. In the last six
years over $4,000. 900 has been invested
in lemon groves in San Diego county.
and while there were 1891 trees growing
there in 1890, there are now upward of
100000. There are several groves of
eighty acres each, and one that COM
prises 1870 acres.-N. Y. Tribune.

Principles of Profitable Farming.

The attention Of our readers is called
to a most valuable little book, entitled
"Principles of Profitable farming" We
do not know of any book on the subject
that gives to the farmer SO much practi-
cal information in the same short space.
In this book experiments are described
upon different soils and crops, and the
farmer is instructed how to use fertil
izer properly, in order to procure the
largest yields.
The reading matter is divided into
three parts, as follows: Part one de-
scribes some of the important results
trst obtained by Prof. Wagner, director
of the experiment station at Darmsdat,
Germany, through green-manuring by
means of potash-phosphate fertilization.
Part two gives an account of the expert
mental farm at Southern Plies, North
Carolina, which is under the auspices of
the Nerth Carolina state horticultural
society, acting in cooperation with the
state experiment station. The object
of the experiments conducted at this
farm is TO ascertain the relative proper
tions of the three principal fertllizing
ingredients needed by various fruit and
vegetable crops, viz, potash, phos-
phoric acid and nitrogen. Part three is
summary of many important results
obtained by the use of potash in expert
ments conducted at experiment stations
| in the United States.
The foregoing outline will give the
reader some idea of the scope and char
acter of this little book. All the facts
are stated in clear and concise language,
and the principals of profitable farming
are set forth in practical way. The
book, which is full of illustrations and
neatly printed and bound, is free of
charge. card addressed to the German

DEBS TALKS In CHURCH.
Declares Christ Would He with the Toiler
- - Wara He ON Earth

Declares Christ Would He with the Toiler
We're He on Earth.
Tcrre Haute, Ind, March est was a
mixed congregation in the First Bap-
fist church that heard Eugene Z. Debs
Sunday night tell what he thought the
church could do for the uplifting of the
wage-earneE. Hundreds were unable to
gain admission. Everyone in rcrre
Haute has heard Debs speak in public,
but no one had expected to hear him in
a church, because it was well known
that he is not believer in the Christian
religion.
Rev. DIR. Holmes, in Introducing Mr..
Debs, said that when Debs returned to
his home after the Great Northern
strike in 1894, he (Holmes) went to the
public meeting given in reception of
Debs prejudiced against him, but came
away believing he was long-headed
man with a big heart. He had not had
occasion to change his estimate, and he
was glad to be the first minister in the
city Of Debs' nativity to ask him to
speak from a pulpit.
Mr.. Debs said that too many pillars of
the church looked upon labor as COM
modify and were lacking in that spirit
of the brotherhood of man which should
characterize those who believe in the
Christian religion. He spoke OF the in
creasing numbers Of the UNEMPLOYED
who were becoming tramps, and said
society and the church barred the doors
against these unfortunate fellow NOR
tails. The church as church has done
nothing for this class of people, but is
arrayed against them as exiles, when as
a matter of fact they were fellow NOR
tails who deserve the attention of the
church. The Christ of the Christian
would be with the la boring man and not
with the rich supporters Of the
churches if He were on earth to-day.
The debauching Of legislatures by
rich corporations, he thought, could be
discussed from the pulpit, and the de-
basement of the courts was for the
church to consider. 1.-THE golden rule was
lived up to by church members the
labor question would be solved in "a
hours. He did not take gloomy view
of the situation. He believed the fact
that the church is beginning to consider
these questions is harbinger of bet
ter things. He believed the brother
hood of man would be the accepted doc
trine of man yet.

Says Proposals Anent Venezuelan Affair
Are Now Before. Our Government.
London, March 23.-Lord Salisbury
has sent reply to the memorial in IA
vor of Anglo-American arbitration of
the Venezuelan question adopted by the
Peace society at meeting in Queens
hall. The reply is addressed to Rt. Hon.
James Stansfeld, ex-member of parlia-
ment, who presided at the meeting.
Lord Salisbury says:
II am glad to be able to inform you that
this question is receiving the consideration
of the government and that proposals in
the direction indicated by the memorial are
now before the government of the United
States.''
The Daily News QiberaD has an ed
itorial on Lord Salisbury's reply. to the
memorial of the Peace association for
arbitration of the Venezuelan dispute,
in which it says:
Lord Salisbury's letter is the most hone
FIJI word we have had for long time from
the premier. We hope that it portends a
definite clearing of the International situa-
ton in one of the stormiest quarters. We
may even dream that it will presage a new
and brighter era in the worlds history.
1t is not perfectly clear whether the ques-
ton has been advanced stage or whether
the government has merely confirmed and
adopted Lord Rosebery's policy. If Lord
Salisbury is able to convert his words into
deeds he will go far to make his present
term of Office illustrious and benefcent.''
The Chronicle, also liberal, echoes the
Daily News hopes that the United
States will reciprocate our good will.
eff so,' the Chronicle adds, there is
no need to trouble ourselves further
