Fax Lima bean growers of Southern Cali lornia do not believe in trusts but they adyo. cate exchanges. Only year ago their haAns were selling at from $1.sO to $l.se per Hundred pounds. Now they bring from 2, t, eA-2O. This rise is due to organization among growers. Santhern California is the chief producer of Lima beans in the world
 sAys an exchange, but the growers had nc generalization. and the market became unt- teriy demora;ized. The growers thought by lcombinationa price of S2 could be had, and uo they organized last year. There was a surplus of about 500 cars of beans held over from the crop of the previous season, and the first effort to dispose of this by de- vsloping new markets abroad. This was brought about In short order, through an agreement among. the growers that they would sell only through their exchange. The Sfice at once rose to S2, and large orders from abroad, through the efforts of the ex- ehange, soon exhausted the surplus stock ard created keen demand for the new crop. Now buyers are impatient for the coming crop, while offers of $4,l0 await the Consideration of the exchange. Arizona has valley sections where the Lima bean should
 ho grown extensively. The Arizona grower
 could rely upon getting California prices,
 or better. because he is nearer tho markets.

Very little if any Chinese freight will
be allowed to leave Honolulu this week.

and to take charge of the goods i'm
mediately after for shipment.
There is little trouble in shipping Am

Board of Health on the bills Of ladlng.
The origin and condition of such mer-
chandise is inquired into, however.
Alfred w. Carter is organizing a force
of inspectors whose duty 1t will be TO
search for the sick. His services, prof
fered yesterday, were accepted. Allan
Judd has reinlisted as an inspector. He
is today examining suburban settle
ments in search of sick. 1t is the in
tention of the Board of Health to vigor-
ously prosecute this work. If there are,
other cases there may be quarantine

THE OCEANS FLOOR.

Ten thousand deep sea soundings
have been taken during the last ten
years by British ships. For the editica-
ton of the geographical section, Sir
John Murray, f. r. $, prepared table
based on these and on earlier soundings,
showing that SO per cent. of the oceans
floor is more than two geographical
miles below the surface; while Il per
cent is more than one mile deep only
II per cent. is less than one mile, and
per cent. is from three to five miles,,
deep. The greatest depth is in the Pa
cific, east of the Friendly Islands, and
is more than five miles, yet it is only
2000 feet more below the level of the
sea than Mount Everest, in the Hima-
layas, is above it. The extent of the
oceans floor or bed is 100000 square
geographical miles. In the depths be-
low two miles the water is almost at
freezing point, and is perfectly dark. On
90 per cent. of the floor no vegetation
can be found, but on nearly the whole
of it is a mass of animal remains min
gled together there are the bodies or
animals which lived in the light warm,
surface water, and Of those which lived
all their lives in darkness and in an icy
temperature.
