After session lasting eleven weeks the

five achievement. and its virtues were chiefly
of a negative character. II there were no en-
actnents of conspicuous Importance, the record
shows that many useful laws and few bad ones
survived the ordeal OF legislative and eXecu-
tive scrutiny. The work Of revising and codl-
fving the statutes. begun under Governor
Griggs. was continued by Commissions ap-
pointed by Governor Voorhees,. bit the Vaiue

Worthy of passing notice is the fact that
when the gavel fell on the announcement or

Voorhees, broke every record and cstaDlShed Il

should remain in session until he had disposed

A CALIFORNIA FRUIT BREEDET
A Famous Inventor of Fruits and Flow

A fdIIuuS liNeHlOr or ETulIS ana FLOW
 CTS.
 It seems strange that there should be such thing as all inventor or evolv CT of fruits and flowers But if it were not for the inventors of fruits the world would now be eating or rejecting fruit that was hard, flavorless. acid and in digestible, The peach in it's beginning was valueless, diminutive, ill-shaped thing that was actually poisonous. A long time ago an inventor took hold of it and made it less so, and in the time that has intervened many other invent ors have taken a hand at it, until now it is beautiful and luscious. And the end is not yet. Future fruit inventors are not going to be defrauded of their chance to exercise their genius and the finish of the peach is a thing for the to glow over. The inven- ton of fruits is probably the only one
