tically sll the native raisins come
from the grape region of Northern and
Central California, Of which Fresno Is
virtually the center.
1t il the intention Of this trust.
backed as it will be, by unlimited
capital. TO build large factory which
is expected TO absorb all others. IL
expects 60 use all the raisin grapes
grown in this otate, and extend the
sales Of the manufactured product.
Trusts, as a general thing, are bene-
fetal only to the stockholders. How
ever, this one proposes to make it an
object to vineyardists to increase their
output of grapes by guaranteeing TO
pay cash and a good price for their
product at the factory, just as TIE beet
sugar trusts do to the farmers. The
latter is a decided success, and there
seems TO be an understanding between
the growers and the manufacturers that
there shall be an equitable division of
the profits; in fact. they mean to and
do act upon live and let live" policy.
1t is TO be hoped that this Iaisin trust
will act ON the same broad plane,
which virtually means success to all.
The trusts can secure what the indi.
vidual efforts Of the growers cannot,
and that is to get Congress to pass SO
high tariff that the Mediterranean pro-
ducts in this line would be shut out.
1t is well-known fact that concen-
trsted wealth, such as trusts and syndi-
Gates, has controlled in Washington in
the past, and there is no doubt but it
will in the future. If every firm OF
corporation doing business in this
State would be satisfied with smaller
profits, bo willing to allow the producer

ments, this would soon become the
wealthiest and most prosperous section
in the Union. California has the soil,
the climate, the people; all that is
necessary is to have business done on
clearly business principles.

Sugar Beets in Washington.

The Louisiana Planter and Sugar
Manufacturer, a journal devoted to the
sugar industries of Louisiana. gives its
leading article of January 80 to sugar
beets in the state of Washington.
Commenting upon the analyses made
by Professor Elton Fulmer of the agri-
cultural experiment station at Pull.
man, the Planter says:
Excepting one sample Of low sugar
content from some exceptional cause,
the poorest sample tested 10 per cent
sugar and the juice 1858 per cent puri-
ty. while the best tested 14.7 pei &, nt
sugar in the beets, and the juice 80. 1
per cent purity. These average results
were hardly as high as those recorded
in the earlier bulletin, but leave tile
beets still averaging above 10 per cent
sucrose, which is the minimum test &C
cepted by the beet sugar factories. 4"
This is incorrect. As matter of
fact, the lowest average showed 1876
per cent of sugar in the beets, and the
highest. that obtained from analyses of
% samples from "a field at Naver-
ley, this county, gave the Unusual.
iy high per centage of 1876. These
tests, made from beets grown at ten
points, show that without exception
beets grown in this State exceed in
percentage of sugar the minimum test
accepted by beet sugar factories.

San Pedro has entered upon the
greatest boom ever known in the his
tory OF the town. The harbor decision
did it. The bidders for constructing
the breakwater are very numerous.
All the great contracting firms in the
United States-and their name is legion
will bid for the construction of the
breakwater. Ii is to the advantage of
Los Angeles that some company not
too remote from the coast be given the
job, and it is probable that the contract
will be let to some firm that is near the
seat OF operation. There are some con-
tractors in Los Angeles and many in
San Francisco who are preparing to
make bids for building this great i'm
provement. IL is<-derstood that the
Southern Pacific Company will put in
a bid Being already ON the ground
this company is well circumstanced
for the work. The Terminal Railroad
Company, being ON the water front,
also has many advantages. But before
any of the bids are let all of the bid
ders will be compelled to make borings
in the bottom of the ocean to ascertain
the bearing powers of the submarine
stratum. This will call into play at
once large number of men and soon
the waters of the bay will be dotted
with all species Of craft with borers
and other machinery. The work at
the scene of the breakwaser will COM
mence ut once and will be continuous,
as the contracts will be let as soon as
possible after the specified time allowed
by law.
