WAsPs BENEFIT THE FIGS.
Insects Are Necessary to the Fruits
Successful Cultivation.

Insects Are Necessary to the Fruits
Successful Cultivation.
The long-continued effort to produce
the Smyrna fig Of commerce in Cali
fornia has been crowned with success.
The history Of the experiment is inter-
esting. 1t began over twenty years ago
with importation of cuttings from Asia
Minor. Figs have been produced from
these and other imported cuttings, but
they were not the famous white fig of
commerce. The credit of producing
the latter in California belongs to Geo.
G. Roeding Of Fresno. Until this sum-
mer every true Smyrna fig tree planted
in California which bore fruit failed to
mature it; the figs were unfertilized
and withered and dropped. 1t was
finally discovered that the fertilization
of this fig depended upon the service
of the blastophaga wasp, whose habitat
is in the capri, or wild fig. The latter
was imported and thrived amazingly,
but the blastophaga did not accompany
it.
Special importations of the wasp fol-
lowed, but it thrived only for season
on the capri fig and then disappeared.
1t was assumed that it could not sur
vive our winters. Last year the De-
partment Of Agriculture took the mat
ter in hand. A fresh consignment was
imported and it's care intrusted to Mr..
Roeding. Last April the young insect
colony emerged in full force from the
first capri cot, entered the second,
emerged again, and then took posses
sion Of the Smyrna fig trees, the fruit
on which was ready for fertilization.
Mr.. Roeding reports that this expert
ment has been perfectly successful. A
ton Of the fruit has been picked from
his trees and the entire crop will yield
five or six tons more. Mr.. Roeding be-
Heves that the blastophaga has come
to stay and he expects that California
will be enriched soon with another in
duStry.

upon him now.' Stop he says, as I
were going away; they keep a carriage,
of course? OF course says; what's
the good of doctor that hasn't a car

away like a poll-parrot with the black
haired gent. That were last Monday;
to-day's Friday, and this morning there
comes this bit of note to me at our
house. That's what's brought me here
at this time. doctors"
He gave the note into Jacks hands;
and he, after glancing at it, passed it on
to me. The contents were simply these
words: "James Simmons is requested to
call at Gray's Inn Road, at $50 Friday
evening" The handwriting struck me
as one had seen and noticed before. l
scanned it more closely for a minute or
two; then a glimmering Of light began
to dawn upon my memory. Gould it be?
l felt almost sure it was. In another
minute l was persuaded that it was the
same hand as that which had written the
letter announcing Olivia's death. Proba-
bly, if l could see the penmanship Of the
other partner, should find it to be iden-
tical with that of the medical certificate
which had accompanied the letter.
Leave this note with me, Simmons" :"
said, giving him half a crown in ex-
change for it. l was satisfied now that
the papers had been forged, but not with
Oliyia's connivance. Was Foster him
, self a party to it? Or had Mrs. Foster
| alone, with the aid of these friends or

CHAPTER XXIu

Julia's marriage arrangements were GO
ing on speedily. There was something
ironical to me in the chance that made
me so often the witness of them. We
were so merely cousins again, that she
discussed her purchases and displayed
them before me, as if there had never
been any notion between US of keeping
house together. Once more l assisted
in the choice of wedding dress, for the
one made a year before was said to be
yellow and old-fashioned. But this time
Julia did not insist upon having white
satin. A dainty tint of grey was con-
sidered more suitable. Captain Carey en-
joyed the purchase with the rapture ]
had failed to experience.
The wedding was fixed to take place
the last week in July, a fortnight earlier
than the time proposed; it was also a
fortnight earlier than the date I was look

ever, news would reach Tardif from
Olivia.
