SUCCESSFUL TEST
Of Fire Hydrant Valves to Be Fol.
lowed With Large Order


The question of the use of the fire
hydrants for street sprinkling purposes
or to fill up the sprinkling wagons, has
been settled by the success of trial Of
new valve attached to one of the n.y.
drants at First and Main streets, and 1t
is almost certain that nearly all of the
plugs will be similarly equipped with
valves. The objection to the use of the
MIGRANTS for this purpose has been that
the wagon drivers have been careless;
the valve seats have been worn out by
constant and improper use; valve stems
have been broken, and hydrants have
been made to leak badly. The new valve
was submitted to the council, and placed
at First and Main streets. It is simple
continuance, such as any person could
use. The water is kept turned on in any
hydrant so equipped, and all that is
necessary is to use the valve as an out
let pipe without working the valve in
the MIGRANTS.
1t has been decided to advertise for
bids for 212 of these valves. so as to place
them on the ''goose-neck" hydrants
Throughout the city. Inspector Smith
Of the street sprinkling department
stated yesterday that the water COM
pany objected to this Improvement OF
the hydrants, but City Attorney Dunn
advised him that there was no reason
for such objection.

termine the value Of bees to fruit trees.
Two peach trees were removed to q

bloom at midwinter. One Of the trees
was so protected as to prevent the bees
from getting to it. while they were al

the time Of bloom the bees worked indus
triously on the flowers of the tree to
which access was had. AS the season
advanced, the fruit on both trees set and
grew without appreciable difference I'M

Poultry Yard Notes

Here are few mistakes. says the
Farmers Guide, that farmers and anna
tours often make:
They buy cheap grain. grain that has
been damaged by fire or that has become
smutty.
They give the poultry only half-atten-
ton, and then. because they do not give
good returns, curse the business.
They do not personally look after the
wants of their fowls. Many small mat
ter would be noticed before 1t becomes q
dangerous point II the owner would give
an hours inspection each day.
They call their misfortune bad luck, .
when the secret was nothing more than
a penalty they have paid for want Of
good care.
They allow both old and young stock
to run together, and do not keep the
cockerels separate from the pullets.
They have too large focks. thus over
crowding and inviting idleness, lice,
over-fat and many Ills.

Some Things to Consider

The State Beekeepers' association and
Beekeepers' exchange will convene in
Los Angeles on the tenth Of this month
for the consideration Of the best inter-
ests of the industry.
The leading question Of interest should
be the increase Of honey and increase Of
markets; better prices and the increase
Of bee forage, that in many places is
growing lighter every year.
The past few years OF failures should
be of sufficient admonition on the i'm
portance Of cultivating bee forage. In
Northern California beekeepers are be-
coming more alive to the benefits Of Gull
tivating bee forage.
The yearly increase Of acreage of al
falfa, fruit trees. ETC., is producing an
increase In amount and quality Of honey
1t Is the duty Of the State association
to encourage the cultivation of good
honey producing plants. There are
many places In our mountains where
much seed can be scattered that will, in
Q short time, produce sweetness for the
labor expended, and will be a preventive
in great measure, Of disastrous fall
ures in the future.-N. lowering, in Cali

favoring such course.

against the granting Of permission to
drill additional oil wells in the vicinity
Of their hospital was referred to the

planned that the great number of wells

tween Chavez street and Alhambra

to abandon the proceeding. Their rea-
SONS, as stated in the petition, are that
there is no present public necessity for
opening the streets, and the benefits
from 1t would not be proportionate with
the costs.

Blackberries and Raspberries

AS things look now, the new favorites,
the Logan and the Mammoth, are likely
to supersede. to large extent, all other
fruits In Southern California. as they
are likely to be pre-eminently adapted to
our climate. Their immense size and
abundant bearing qualities are bound
to make them favorites. Being very Wig
orous growers and Of travelling habit
Of growth, 1t would seem that trellising
will be the best way to manage them,
and for that purpose posts can be set
eight feet apart and the runners trained
on wire strung between posts. For
convenience in picking as well as irriga-
ton and cultivation, trellising with Wig
orous travelling growth is the most con-
venient.-California Cultivator.

Growing the Palm

No perfect specimen Of the palm can be
grown when the leaves are not allowed
to fulfill the purpose Of their being.
When they are ripe they will droop. and
not until then should they be removed.
Better still, where they do not obstruct
the sidewalk. If they can remain until
fully mature and dry. Then the trunk
will grow smooth and symmetrical. and
at maturity show a stately row Of coll
umns, such as that to be seen along the
front of the old White grove on Magno-
liza avenue. Whenever the leaves Of the
palm are prematurely cut there will re-
suit decided lack Of vigor to the trees
growth, inducing tendency of the trunk
to get out Of the perpendicular and to
become dwarfed ct points along the
trunk where such rough treatment had
been given.-E. ". Holmes IN Riverside

Fraudulent Cheese

The filled cheese law seems to be doing

production of artificial cheese from the
time it went into effect, September 8,
1896, down to the LIST of last July, accord
ing to statistics compiled at the treasury
department. In that period 1868, 067
pounds of filled cheese were manufac-
tured, upon which tax Of 81. $3.50 was col
Iected. against 12000.000 pounds during
the fiscal year 1896, 10000, 900 pounds in
1895, and 14,000, 900 pounds in 1893.
The number of factories which paid
the special tax of $500 during the fiscal
year was seven, all in Illinois. They
numbered an even 100 in the previous
year, and in 1898 reached 265. Only one
wholesale establishment paid the tax of
$3.50, and So retail licenses were issued

Liver Trouble in Fowls

Fowls frequently suffer from liver
trouble; in this case the comb looks pale
and has a yellowish tint. occasionally
turning dark in color. The comb and
general appearance indicate the condi-
ton OF the fowls. When the stock does
not appear well 1t should be attended
to; the sick ones should be removed to
separate quarters. If the droppings are
green in color, pill should be given Of
salt and calomel-mixed with soft bread
las much as will go on the point Of a
penknife. They should not be given
anything to drink except sweet scalded
milk and soda; put just pinch Of soda
In the milk. I have found the milk and
soda very effective in cases Of indiges-
ton. liver trouble and dysentery. In
each OF these cases the fowls crop is
usually full; the food therein becomes
sour, which the milk and soda tends to
sweeten; by having the bird drink liber-
ally Of it and then by working the crop
with the hands will often cure bird

amongst your shoats ''porcine vermin-
GUS bronchitis" 1t Is disease which
usually has a ten days duration, unless
death puts stop. Watch for the worms
and mucous coughed up. and burn or
boil 1t. If there be no worms it may not
be verminous bronchitis, but common
swine cough. Give teaspoonful Of oil
Of turpentine, well mixed in twice the
amount Of table salt. Feed the best and
most nutritious detection oil cake il
good. Give sulphate of iron, one to two
drains for small ones, two to three to the
large, and a little ginger. You need the
most persistent vigilance. Give plenty
Of pure air and sunshine and perfect
cleanliness.-Hoard's Dairyman.
The Planting Season
The planting season is now SO close
upon us that those who intend planting
must bestir themselves both by securing
trees and getting the ground ready, says
the California Cultivator. Trees should
be bought early, for then there is bet
ter choice Of good healthy trees and
large variety. Late In the season fire.
quently trees are not in as good shape as
they ought to be. and although the or
binary purchaser cannot detect 1t, after
planting they make very uncertain
growth and may take a whole season to
recover. Trees should be taken at once
and heeled in under the best conditions
taking care that the roots do not have
chance to dry out. Then they should
be planted before the heaviest rains are
over, and in this way better results may
be secured. Never buy tree from an
irresponsible party. as that class of peo-
pie generally have any kind Of tree
wanted. Responsible nurserymen are
sometimes out Of particular kinds. but
your tree peddler, never! Mistakes will
even then occur, but any reliable nur-
seryman will be glad to rectify such.
Now Is the time to get the ground In or
der. If time permits two plowings are
better than one, but one good blowing is
better than two poor ones.

UNPlEDGED DELEGATES.

In the local column is a plan pro-
posed by the Reno Journal regarding
the election of delegates to the State
Convention.
A man who stands sufficiently high
in the party to be selected to go as a
delegate to the State Convention
ought to be considered a man sufhci-
emily trustworthy to send unpledg-
ed.
# he betrays his trust and fights
the interests of his own country his
constituents can locate him for further
reference.
The APPEAL believes that the sug-
gestior of having all delegates un-
pledged that the convention after
meeting can fully discuss the claims
of all candidates and act for the best
interests of the whole party, is good.
Unpledged delegates are the most
satisfactory to the voters.

GOOD EXAMPLE,.

A movement having been recently
lnauguIated TO incorporate the Demo
cratic financial plank in the platform
of the State Republican Party of Utah,
Senator NJ. a. Hanna, Chairman Of
the National Republican Committee,
has addressed a letter to United
States Marshal Glen Miller, of this
city, in which he says:
Il have been informed that it has
been suggested that the Republican
Party Of Utah, at the next State Con-
vention, indorse in its platform the
free coinage Of silver AS chairman
of the National Committee, charged
with the duties of the position, l pro
test against the Republicans of any
State taking action. 1t would be
clearly ID opposition to the principles
of the party as declared in the plat
form at the National Convention at
St. Louis, and l trust you will use
your influence and efforts to the end
that that declaration may be sustain
ed"
The Utah Republicans have the
right idea of the matter. They be-
lieve that a party always pledged to
free coinage, as the Republican party
claims to have been, should continue
to be for free coinage after the party
leaders have been coaxed into aban-
doning it by Wall Street influences.
The Republicans of Nevada will do
we'll to follow the example of the Re
publicanS of Utah.
