PROFIT IN FRUIT.
What Some Men Did Last Season
on a Few Acres.

(WlnterS ExpreSS)
Does fruit-growing at present prices
pay? OF course it does, and here is
proof: Mccormack Hughes, who lives
near this town, has finished drying,
sold his crop, settled up his expense ac-
counts, and finds that from three acres
of peaches his net income was 1882 o.
That means means $12766 per acre.
The fruit was sold at cents per pound
(present price from IL to 13 cents),
which is double what he realized. Ten
acres of peaches would have yielded
him better income than he could have
expected from almost any other in
vestment.
There is a fruit-grower in the upper
portion of Capay Valley who cleared
from his Eastern shipments of green
fruit Sl22 an acre net for twenty acres
This does not include any fruit that he
dried or other products raised on the
land

SUGAR BETS.
The Crop About Lodi Proved an
Utter Failure.

The Lodi Sentinel says that the en-
tire crop of sugar beets raised in that
vicinity was lately shipped out in one
car, which it about half hlled- Inc
load was supplied by five shippers out
of twenty-five who planted, the other
twenty not considering their crops
worth harvesting.
While it has been a bad season for
beets in that part of the State, 1t Is
difficult to account for the total failure
which has occurred. The Sentinel
doubts whether any further expert
ments will be made there in beet cult

THE MODERN JOCKEY
His Importance, and inc Way He
 Gains If In Modern Sport.

Ihe jockey dS an important creature There are plenty of men that can ride horses; th9re are evecI q respectable number that can race them with judg-
 ment: but owing to the custom that tils grown up of racing horses under
 weigfI;s they would have to carry in ordinary work. the number of men that
 can ride and race horses at the weight
 called for by the handicapper is very
 small In horse racing the thing de
 sired is extreme speed and evidently
 with ninety pounds up horse can Go
 far better than with q hundred and
 fif.y; heree no race horse on the flat
 is allowed to carry the weight of an or
 dinary man. This ssate of affairs gives to midgets like Tod Sloan and AIaher an importance they would have in no other way, and is perhaps natures way of conDenSating them
 for their inferiori4y in size to the or diDary man.
 A really successful jockey. as every enc knows, can almost command his own price. Besides his regular salary. which would pay rhose of several col lege professors. be is likely to receive gifts to several times the amount of his salary after any winning race When an owner has won q small for lGlE1- Ou q lew S8CDl1l : WOTh or -lOf.k ey and horse. he is in an expansive mood. and the world looks large and seems to be mostly in his own pocket.

Ills opportuni- ties for dishonesty are very great. and neither his breeding nor his education usually leads to the greatest moral de veIopment.

LoCKWooD's GRIEVANCE.
Tie Reason For His SIanEler on the
 Election of Judge Haight.

Some years ago Supreme Court
 Judge in Erie county decided a suit be

 MT. Lockwood adversely to the latter's contention. Some vars af7.erward one
 of the political parties of this state
 r0minated that Supreme Court Judge
 for Judge of the Court of Appeals. and
 he was elected. Reference is made to Judge Haight. Now. Mir Iockweed
 declares that fe was nominated be cause he decided against him. and that | the Standard Oil Company accomplish ed his H0minltiOn ard election by money.
 The secret was long and we'll kept Not human being knew if or suspect ed it. but NIr. Lockwood-or does vel. The republicans were ignorant of it. The democrats were unaware if it. Not ever the populists imagined it. Lockwood alone was possessed of the Knowledge. and he kept quiet about it. while Judge Haight was going through the process of blfng e'ected by an i'm mense majority. in one of the years when his party had everything itS own way. Those who bore TO personal grievance into the election that year. have always attributed Mir. Haight's nOmina tiGn to the urion of deIegaips from western New York on him. :n his party's state convention. and his elec- ton to the loss of the state fy fine democrats. but thair own failure to please 5he people The first n;idi to at tack the Judges character is Mir.
