Mysterious something! What are words to

What thought can find the palace where
you dwell?
How may we know the bounds of thy do
main,
How weigh or measure aught Of loss or

And yet we know thee welll Here by this
hand
I touch and feel l beckon with command
| see the beauty of thy marvels here:
Life's fields are green; deaths acres dry
and sere.
Life speaks to death. but death no answer
gives:
Dead is all death-'tis only life that lives
dagger thrust puts out the perfect light
A snuffed-out candle In unending night
So we may reason; affirm or yet deny:
Still, What is life?" Is our incessant cry.
Question no more. Life Is not mortal

The true life yet to be comes after death!

California could raise. sufficient beets
to manufacture the hundred million
dollars worth OF sugar that is now i'm
ported from abroad. Ii is not neces-
sary to enlarge upon the impetus which
the distribution of such an immense
sum among the producers Of California
would give.
Ii is encouraging to note that the
subject of beet sugar production is at
present engaging the attention OF some
of the foremost men in the State. The
new factory at Alamitos, within 90
miles of Los Angeles, is rapidly ap-
preaching completion. Another fac
tory is talked Of for Ventura county,
and several of the counties in the
northern part of the State are taking
steps TO test the capacity of their soils
for the production Of beets. The sug-
gestion of the State Board that the leg
islature should take steps to promote
the development of the beet sugar in
dustry is a good one The national
Republican platform promises adequate
protection 10 the American sugar in
dustry, and the present is an auspic-
ious time to act vigorously in Califor-
mia, which is admitted by experts to
possess facilities for the growth of this
valuable plant that are found in no
other section of the world.

Inspection Bill.

L. g. Ravens, Horticultural Com
missioner Of Riverside county, has
prepared bill for the inspection at
frontier or port of entry of all plants,
fruits, seeds, etc, imported into the
United States, says the S. F. Chron.
icle. The DILL forbids the landing of
any such products except upon the GER
tificate of qualified inspector that
they are free from disease or pests.
The bill as drafted will be submitted
to a national fruit growers convention,
which meets in Washington next
month, and in the form in which it is
approved by that body will in due time
be laid before Congress. There is no
doubt that this bill should become a
law. Had it always been ON the
statute books we should have been
spared the infection of a multitude of
grievous pests, which have cost the
people of this country many millions of
dollars. There are yet many which are
fortunately not known here and which
should be kept out if possible. At
present California and some of the
other States maintain such quaran-
tine at their own expense, which is, in
a great measure, ineffective because il
can only apply to products to be de.
livered to owners residing in those
States. Infected trees consigned to
Reno, New. can not be touched by our
State quarantine officer, and no pest
once established i'll an adjoining State
can be kept out of California. The
regulation of such matters is logically
and properly a Federal duty.

4 Few Sensible Hints to suit the Busy
Agriculturist.-ItemsT That May
BENEFIT our Readers.
Arid and Humid Lands.

Prof. Hilgard's paper on arid and
Humid Lands was one of the best
ever heard on that subject. He proved
by the proportions of different ingre-
dients that arid lands Of this country
aIe far richer and more fertile than
those of the East. 1t is necessary, how
ever, to prevent the injurious effects of
the alkaloid salts. and of these salts sal
soda is the most disastrous in its attack
on plant growth. By the simple
method of applying gypsum by a
chemical process the sal soda can be
changed to Glauber salt, which is not
nearly so dangerous. Sal soda is the
so-called black alkali' dreaded by
farmers, and though it can be changed
to the more harmless Glauber salt by
the use of gypsum, swapping by the
excessive use of water must hereafter
be avoided or il will return to its
original form. with even worse effects
than before. There should be legisla-
tion to prevent the leaking of bitches,
for this if no other reason. Professor
Hilgard continues:
Barley may be grown on land con-
tanning 80, 900 pounds of alkali to the
acre. provided there is not too great a
portion of black alkah or sal soda. but
on land containing $4,000 pounds to
the acre it will not grow. Glover,
peas. beans and vegetables are sensitive
to alkali; alfalfa will not grow we'll
as rule, though if it gains hold it
thrives remarkably, owing to the fer
tilizing compounds also found in the
alkali lands. The shading of the
ground by tho alfalfa once it gets a
start prevents evaporation, which goes
ON through the plant instead of through
the ground The experimental stations
are trying to give practical aid to the
farmer by determining what plants
grow in different degrees of alkali;
thus the presence of certain plants will
show conclusively to the farmer that
the soil is irreclsimable.
DR.. Koebig delivered an interesting
lecture ON the manufacture of sugar
from beets. He traced the growth of
the beet-sugar industry in California,
at Watsonville. Chino and other places,
and stated that the farmers are eager
that factories should be erected here
where they may dispose of their crops
1t remains for the capitalists here to
seize the opportunity and open up in
California this great industry to its
( full possibilities.

Committee ON Mines and Mining will
urge as an amendment that the bill
shall not affect any existing claims,
and herein lies the story. 1t is claimed
that a combine has secured almost en-
tire control Of the mining properties in
and around Randsturg. The purpose
of the original bill is to break up the
combines strength and the purpose of
the amendment is to prevent it. The
combine secured many of itsproper-
ties by purchasing school lands in
torty-acIe tracts.

University Orchard.
1t is perhaps not generally known
that the plans of the University exper.
iment stations scattered over the State
and already so useful include the
establishment of orchards of unique
value, says the Oakland Enquirer.
The department, of which Professor
Hilgard is the head, has sent out this
season collection of nearly seven hun
dred new ana rare varieties of apples
and several hundred new pears. These
are TO be planted at Paso Robles, Po-
mona and Amador, where considerable
orchards already exist.
The additions planned to the present
orchards include equally extensive col
lections in all other classes of fruits,
and 1t is safe to say that nowhere else
in America can such orchards be more
useful and interesting.
In choosing these 700 new apples
from among the 5000 or more that are
in the European collections, the agri-
cultural department of the University
has borne in mind the needs of the
valleys, as we'll as the mountains, and
has introduced many rare and valuable
types. They have, for instance, the
cider apples showing highest specific
gravity Of juice, from Normandy and
Herefordshire; some twenty varieties
of Russets; twenty five new PeaImains;
dozen new Reinettes; thirty or more
OF the best Sweetings; Crab apples that
keep all winter; apples earlier than
the old varieties; apples that are ex.
pected to keep till July, and many very
famous sorts that once introduced into
California markets will win their own
way. An especial effort has been made
to secure red winter apples of high
quality.
When these apples have fruited they
will be exhibited, of course, and scions
can be given to all who desire them.
The University experimenters can
cross breed the best varieties, and give
us new and improved sorts for our
future orchards. The same thing can
be done with the pears and other
fruits. A catalogue is now being pre-
pared for publication in the next an.
nual report of the experiment stations.
But such catalogue is necessarily in.
completes as the department is constant
ly receiving new sorts. In the near
future the question of land ON which
to plant new varieties will be serious
one. Some millionaire should give the
University several hundred acres of
good fruit land, with sufficient en-.
dowment to carry ON the work of estab.
fishing the most complete experiment
orchard in the world. Such an orchard
could easily contain 1000 varieties of
apples, 1000 varieties of pears, 5000
varieties of peaches, and other fruits
in like proportions. and in time it
would become the authoritative center
of genealogical work in America.
But even as it is, the University
collections will be of great and increas.
ing Importance TO Californians, contain
ing as they do. SO many new and rare
fruits Of every sort, some especially
chosen with view to hardness, others
for late keeping. others for earliness.
and others for commercial value.
