ROOFING A FARM.
It Is Being Done In California to Fro.
tect Oranges.


tect Oranges.
Frost is frequent feature of orange
growing In California and many de-
vices for keeping 1t from harming tho
orchards have been tried from time to
time with only partial success.
writer III the San Francisco Call tells
OF plan which seems to be working
well and to repay the expenses In
volved. During the day the earth and
trees become warm, but as the night
cools the atmosphere the process o!
radiation sets in and the heat from TIE
earth and the trees is carried of, the
cold, frosty atmosphere taking Its
place. This warm .ir must not be al
lowed to escape. The fact was evil
dent that the trees must be covered.
fog would do this effectually, but
fogs cannot be manufactured to order.
The idea was conceived of covering the
orchard with canvas, which could be
rolled up in the morning and let out
at night. One acre was covered In
this way and It was found to be ex
pensive and unstable. us the canvas
would get wet and decay. Then Mr..
Everest thought OF covering Of
leathering, and it was tried, was a
success. and today is an accomplished
iact. A visit to this ranch would re-
move any doubts one might have re-
garding the feasibility of the new plan.

men are then called up and n process
Oh nring up is commenced. And yet
with all these precautions the frost has
often been too quick. Now the trees
are rooted in with canvas and laths.
Although this shelter has been used
over but fifteen acres the entire ranch
VIII be covered as soon as the work
can be done. Last spring the fruit
which was covered matured perfectly,
while that uncovered was more or less
injured. The operation is perhaps
considered an expensive one. but when
the value of crop Is considered 1t is
inhnitesimal. The cost is about $i00

that the temperature is some five de-
grees higher under the cover than out

this cover the rancher is absolutely
