The secretary OF the California state
board of horticulture, Mr.. b. NJ. Le-
long, in recent essay ON the olive tree,
gives the following facts regarding
olive growing in California: At Is
years of age the tree is in full bearing,
producing on an average OF so pounds
fruit to the tree. There are now in
California 5000 acres OF l5-year-old
trees, yielding an averave of ~, 700, 900
pounds fruit per year, while 1900 trees
are not yet 10 years old, but in bear
ing, yielding an average of 20 pounds
to the tree. The 5,5O0,O 900 lbs thus
obtained, added to the !, 200, 900, gives
total OF 1900, 900 lbs olives as the
product OF the state. 1t takes go lbs
of fruit to make a gal of oil. If all the
fruit were turned into oil we would
now produce an average of 2l2, 900 gals
olive oil, with yearly increase as the
trees advance in age. When the
young trees come into full bear
ing, figuring upon the basis of 5000
acres at so lbs to the treee, the
output would be IA, 400, 900 pounds
OF fruit. The remaining lO,6 acres,
bearing 20 pounds to the tree, would
give ~, TAI 600 pounds total of 80.
S67, 600 pounds of olives per year,
which made into oil, the total amount
would be 664, 400 gallons.

Il is my present opinion, says Proi T.
II. Harrington of the Wisconsin Dairy
School, that the mould in dairy tubs
can be prevented by thoroughly dry
ing them before they are used. We
have never had complaint ON account
Of mOuldy butter, although We make
from 100 to 400 pounds daily in our
dairy school creamery. Our sixty
pound tubs are bought as any other
creamery would buy them, that is,
they are not selected tubs. We buy
them in lots Of 800 at time, and store
them in a large attic room of the build
ing. We are careful to have them
stand bottom side up. so that the hoop
will not drop OF and the tubs fall To
pieces while they are stored in this dry
room. Two to five tubs are used
daily. They are prepared for use by
first placing them bottom side up over
jet Of steam, where they are left
about fifteen minutes. After this
steaming the tub is filled with cold
water, and stands full Of water about
two hours before the parchment lining
is put into the tub and it is filled with
butter. This method of treatment has
given entire satisfaction up 10 date to
the parties to whom We ship the butter.
We have never had a complaint from
mould.
Recently | made an attempt to mould
some of our tubs in order to find out
something about the subject. Four
sixty pound tubs were taken out of the
storeroom and kept under water, en-
tirely submerged, for four days. After
this soaking they were allowed to dry
for one day and then placed in tightly
covered tank which had about p inch
of water on it's bottom. The tubs were
left in this damp atmosphere few
days, and soon showed luxuriant
growth Of mould on the surface Of the
wood. This evidence seemed to show
/ to me that the complaints about
mouldy butter probably came from the
dampness of the wood in the butter
tub, and that the mould could be pre-,
vented by thoroughly drying the tub,
before they are used. Store them il
dry room and not in basement.

Washington. The recruiting, mus
tering, equipPng and placing in the
field of the present great army Of nearly
800, 900 in less than ninety days,
nearly every man having to undergo a
strict examination, is regarded by army
experts as q wonderful achievement.
Officers representing the great armies
of European nations have been amazed
at the work accomplished and admit
frankly that Europe contains little OF
such fighting material as is found in
abundance in the United States.
A consolidated statement prepared
by Major John A. Johnston, Assistant
Adjutant- General, shows that OF the
277 500 men authorized by Congress
to be enlisted in the regular and vol.
unteer armies, 257, 479 up to this time
have been mustered into the service.
OF the %, 03l yet required to complete
the authorized quota of the army, 49,, :
308 are regulars, 5000 are volunteers,
under the second call, 500 are immunes
and 85l are engineers.
The authorized strength OF the regu-
lar Army is 81, 900. On April Both it
contained 26, 500 men. Since that
time %, 1872 recuits have been obtained
from a probable $4,000 applicants,
by limited number OF recruiting Off
GERS, for the most part strangers in the
country canvassed, and during period
of competition by state authorities fol-
the same men. In the opinion of the
officials of the War Department the
returns of the regular Army lists will
show an increase as this competition
ceases. The strength of the regular
Army today, less recent casualties
estimated at 1000, is AZ 500.
The authorized strength OF the volun
teer Army is ZIG, 500. OF this number
1923, 900 were included in the Presi
dents first call for troops, all of which
have been recruited, mustered and
put in the field; $4,000 were included
in the second call, 81, 900 OF which
have been mustered into the service
5000 were to constitute three specia
regiments of cavalry, 900 were i'm
munes and $500 were engineers.
OF the volunteers under the secon(
call, 80, 600 thus far enlisted have beel
distributed among complete organiza
tions already in the field, and 81, 900 con
stitute new organizations. The tire
special cavalry regiments, commando
by Colonels Roosevelt, Torrey an
Grigsby, have been recruited to thei
full strength, and there are hundred
of applicants for any vacancies tina
may occur in them.
Congress authorized the enlistmen
OF 10, 900 yellow fever immunes and q
this number 913S have been mustere
into the service. All of the ten regi
ments are complete, except the Seventh
Eighth and Tenth, and they probabl
win not be recruited to full strength.

the Call.

Chicago. The Civic Federation az
Chicago has given out a call for a
national conference, TO be held at
Saratoga Springs, N. Y, August 18th
and Goth, TO discuss the future foreign
policy Of the United States. The call
is signed by over 1000 men in every
State in the Union. II says:
1.-The undersigned deem il necessary
that national conference be convened
at an early day to consider the future
OF the foreign policy OF the United
States. The war with Spain gives
promise of the overthrow OF Spanish
power in Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philip
pines and other Of that country's colo
nial possession. The question of what
disposition the United States should
make OF these possessions when peace
is reached is none too soon in engaging
the thought OF our people.
THE question impresses us as being
one OF the most serious the American
people have had to consider. 1t is
new question and one upon which here
tofore very little thought has been be-
slowed by the great majority of our
people. Whether the foreign policy of
the fathers should be adhered TO or
departed from is enough to challenge
the most considerable OF our ablest and
most thoughtful men.
In our opinion this conference
should be composed OF men from all
parts of the country, without respect
to party affiliations, whether they are
for or against policy of territorial ex.
pansion, men whose ability and posi-.
tion and character entitle their opin-
ions to the respectful consideration of
the people.

lures, stated that neither the genesis
nor conduct of the war would be dis
cussed, nor any political cast be given
the proceedings, the object being en-
tirely educational.
The responses were prompt and en-
thusiastic. Among the signers are
many Governors, university presidents
and prominent business men. Among
them appear the names of Martin Kel-
logg, president of the University OF
California; p. NJ. Daniel, president OF
the Los Angeles Board of Trade, and
George Hawley, president of the San
Diego Board of Trade. Governor Lord
of Oregon has also signed.

l sometimes think it would be more
profitable to our fellow workers il we
would sometimes relate our failures or
mistakes instead OF always writing OF
our successes. Last year we made a
mistake which cost us valuable COW.
1t was an expensive lesson, and have
thought that perhaps by relating ii
some one else might be benefited by
our lesson.
The COW referred to was fine, large
animal, when in milk very flush
mixer, due to be fresh in May. She,
with the rest of the herd, was running
ON pasture of rye and oats; each
morning the mich cows were fed a
feed OF oats and bran and occasionally
she was allowed to eat with the milk
ers.
We noticed her bag was filling up
and so milked her before she was fresh;
she gave candy-pail full of milk at a
milking.
In twenty-four hours after the calf
was born the COW was dead from milk
fever. AS soon as we discovered she
was sick We commenced doctoring her,
but all we could do was of no use.
We are confident now it was liberal
feeding caused her death, and hence
forth will feed more dry feed TO cows
expected TO be fresh at this time OF
year when pastures are good, even II we
have to keep the cows stabbed part oil
the time.
We believe that one ounce of preven-
tion in case OF this kind is worth ten
pounds OF cure. Our COW was too far
gone before We noticed that she was

AN ADDRESS BY THE cusANs.
An Appeal to President Mckinley by
Insurgents.

Santiago de Cuba.-The document
which is being circulated for signatures
among Cuban residents in Santiago adj
dressed to the President of the United
States thanking him for the co-opera-
tion of the Army of the United States
and expressing the hope that the
American Government will recognize
Cuban sovereignty in the surrendered
portion OF the Province of Santiago de
Cuba, was drafted by Aras the news
paper correspondent ON the staff OF Gu
ban General Castillo, who directed the
alleged letter OF protest from General
Garcia to General Shafter.
The following is the text of the
Cuban address: ITO President McKin-
ley: The undersigned, Cubans by
birth, landowners and residents OF
Santiago de Cuba, representing with
their families the non-combatant pop
ulation that suffered for many years
Spanish rule in this section OF the is
land, wish to express their warmest
thanks to the people OF the United
States for delivering them from the
insufferable yoke of Spanish rule.
They wish also to express their
absolute confidence in the good faith
and humanitarian purposes of the
United States and in the pledge that
the territory Of Cuba is not to be con.
quered by the American troops for pur-
poses OF annexation. We believe and
would urge that our own people are
capable of fulfilling the international
obligation to establish a government
for the island. Cuba in the future
may possibly become, in the course OF
few years, part OF the territory OF the
United States, thus increasing the
comfort and happiness of this people,
but now all desire government OF our
own, as compensation for the suffer-
ings and heroism of our army, and the
definite establishment of the Cuban
republic, with Cuban authorities, in
accordance with the resolutions OF the
United States Congress.
I'VE hope that the present state OF
affairs at Santiago, where Spaniards
are still the administrators OF our in
terests, property and fate, will be brief;
that the city may soon be turned over
to the Cubans and that our army may
enter, the flag OF Cuba waving tri-
umphantly beside the American flag as
Cuban soldiers fought side by side
with the Americans against the CON-
mon enemy"
General Skaters refusal to permit
the entrance of armed Cubans into
Santiago is an extremely wise one, as
in these excited days there might be
trouble. Unarmed persons, however,
are free to enter at all times. As
soon as the Spanish soldiers have en-
barked Cubans will be allowed to enter
the city freely.

The Seed Question.

Many people make a mistake in
selecting their seed for planting. In
the spring We look over our seeds that
were left the year before, mark down
such as we need and send for them to
the house which has given up the most
satisfaction. Some select the cheapest
seed, and we used to do the same thing,
but changed our ideas. Formerly we
applied for the catalogues quoting the
cheapest seeds, and when they failed to
grow did not know what was wrong.
We now send to the place where the
climate is like ours, and get the best
seeds regardless of price. Years ago,
when we had good catalogues, we
changed off for cheap ones, and when
the seeds failed to grow discovered our
mistake, and were glad to get our old
ones again. The cheapest seeds are
the dearest in the end. In planting
cheap seeds we nearly always have to
send second time for seeds. would
advise to not get the cheapest seeds.

The prospects of the coming orange
crop and the disposition to buy supplies
to the best advantage is seen by the fact
that the Southern California Fruit
Exchange advertised in Los Angeles
for bids for furnishing 1900, 900 boxes
to be used in the packing OF the coming
seasons orange crop. The figures,
which show that an enormous increase
in the production in Southern Califor-
mia is anticipated, will give basis for
estimates OF the increased shipments
over previous years which may be
looked for. Not only are the condi-
tions for full yield favorable now, but
there is great increase in the acreage
OF trees now coming into full bearing.

Havana. - Captain General BlancO
has issued the following proclamation,
announcing the equalization Of Santi-
ago:
After three months heroic defense
and many bloody eombats, owing To
scarcity OF ammunition and vietuals, the
garrison Of Santiago de Cuba has been
forced TO eapitnate under honorable
conditions and with the honors OF the
war. This occurred on the day OF July
10th, when it was recognized by the
brave Spanish General OF the division,
who was acting commander OF the
place, that resistance was useless and
that he could no longer hold the place.
Notwithstanding that re-enforeements
had been possible, and that though he
should receive such from ManZanillo,
and although he should still covet
further losses and bloody combats, and
although he might put the city in a
better condition OF defense, he was still
face to face with the fact that re-en-
forcements would only make further in
roads upon the already greatly con-
sumed and early exhausted store OF
provisions OF the Spanish garrison.
The city was thus placed in very
lamentable condition. The situation
was anticipated, but it caused great
depression TO the Spanish forces.
The occupation Of the city OF Santi-
ago by the military forces OF the Amer
leans is lacking in strategic import
ance, owing TO the fact that the city
had previously been closely blockaded
for a long time by the American ships,
and will have little or no effect on the
development OF the Spanish campaign
which is to decide SPANS fate. The
Spanish army is intact and eager for
glory. 1t is willing to measure arms
with the Americans, and in this array
the King OF Spain, the Spanish Gov
eminent and the whole country places
the trust OF defense at any cost of the
integrity OF Spanish territory and the
honor OF SPANS immaculate flag.
This army is sure to be triumphant
and victorious. That at the last, in
spite of so many dangers and impede
ments, il will show once more the in
dom table spirit and well-known mill
tary talents OF our people is the hope
and expectation of our General-in-
Chief. BLANCO.
