License Committee of the
Supervisors Roasts"
the Judges.
The Issue Is Whether the City
Shall Pay for Chops and
Tomato Sauce"
On One Side Are Threats of Criminal
Action, and Upon the Other
Side Sarcasm.

The Board of Supervisor. yesterday
afternoon listened TO a little "roast" OF
the Superior Judges. who have agreed that
the jurors IN criminal cases must have
their meals supplied TO them by the City
and County, Notwithstanding that the
Judiciary Committee of the board has de-
cided ,hat demands for such meals will
not be audited. The roast was admin
istered by the Judiciary Committee. 1t
was incidental to report containing
other matters. That part of the report
WHICH referred TO the announced inten-
ton OF the Superior Judges is as follows:
Referring to the communication from Judge
Cook OF The superior Court, stating that he
VIII disregard the provisions of resolution No.
15,IO2 (thlrd seriesl i'll the matter OF meals for
trial jurors, your committee deem it TO be u
matter of regret tnat the Judges of our Grim
1nai courts cannot appreciate the situation.
The large expenditures made during the cur
rent fiscal year on account of jurors. simply
for attendance, whether they perform Jury
duty or not, make it appear reasonable to pre-
sumo that they should pay for their meals as
they would have to do under other conditions.
There the matter stands and may stand
for several days. Whether the jurors will
have "chops and tomato sauce" or other
yands at the expense of the City and
County will very soon be determined.
The Supervisors voted some weeks ago
1. Meanwhile the Superior Judges have
intimated that if the City and County
officials prevent the feeding of the Jurors
they will become amenable to prosecution
under the Civil Code.
On the other hand it is said that the
provision for paying the jurors per diem
has been enacted since the Criminal Code
proposition went into effect.
The committee yesterday made other
recommendations concerning jurors as
follows:
In the matter of demands for service or st.
tendance as jurors in the criminal depart
ments of the superior Court it is also recon-
mended that the opinion of the City and
County Attorney be requested as to whether
or not. in those cases where the persons
named arc delinquent for State, City or County
taxes, they be required to pay delinquent
taxes before the SAID demands are allowed;
also whether the board can deduct from said
demands the amounts due.
1t is recommended to place on file the COM
munication from the City and County Attor-
ney, with his opinion that the CITY and
County IS liable for the fees of Grand Jurors
at the rate OF 80 per day for each GAYS attend
ance, and for the fees of trial juiors at the
same rate Tor each days attendance on the
Superior Court when the court is engaged in
criminal cases, whether the juror has been
actua ly impaneled or not: also that the CITY
and County Is not liable for the fees of Jurors
in civil cases except when q party litigant.

SOIL FOR RAsPBERRIEs,
Different varieties Demand Entirely
inherent Ground.

AS to soil for raspberries different va"
rieties demand different soil in order
TO do their best. The red and white
kinds require deep, rich moist soil and
one that is rather compact. Generally
they do poorly on sandy soil, though in
the extreme north they may show an
exception to the rule. The black rasp-
berry will do well in either light or
heavy soil, but they will do best on soil
that is light. In the selection of plants
we will remember that no variety of the
raspberry is other than biennial. That
is to say, one year they produce wood,
the next year fruit, and that is the end
of them. We need not look, therefore,
for two or three-year-old plants. Il
is best TO get one-year-old plants for
transplanting always. But while the
wood is short lived the roots are long
lived, often being several years old.
Before planting the raspberry, in any
way, thoroughly prepare the soil. In
selecting plants get those with plenty
or small fbrous roots, and set no deep
er than they originally were. If the
ground is poor manure in the hill, at
the time of planting, and afterwards on
the surface, working it with plow or
cultivator. Keep the soil as level as
possible, and free from weeds. The
raspberry receives very little pruning.
In field culture none is given, except to
cut off the old wood after fruiting. 1t
would .often prove beneficial, however,
to prune more.--Western Plowman.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Keep suckers from growing around
the base of the trees.
There is no necessity for any kind of
shade in the garden.
The time to shape the heads of the
trees is when they are young.
In selecting trees take those with
smooth, healthy-lool1ing bark, with
small fbrous roots.
If trees are planted for wind-breal5
care should be taken to have them of a
close-growing habit.
If the trees are washed in the spring
with strong soapsuds or lye, many in
sect pests viii be destroyed.
With seeds that are slow to germinate
in the garden it viii often be a good plan
to SOW few radish seed.
One advantage in having fruits grow

fruits will come to a maturity earlier.
