The Cemetery Locks rIuCh Better

On last Friday morning Twenty
two persons responded to the call
for LADIES to assist in the work OF
grubbing, brlering and wedding
the Monterey cemetery, and the
way they went at their work struck
terror to the wilderness Of brush
5riers and sage grass, and now it
smiles as a garden.
That people generally may know
that there are ladies in Monterey
and vicinity who can lay down the
broom and take up the hoe, when
occasion demands, (and this was a
case Of necessity it seems) we here
give the names: Mrs. G. j. Hiner,
Mrs. w. H. Hiner, Mrs Mate Dick
enson, Mrs Howard Slaven, Mrs. G.
P. Jones, Mrs Fannie Cross, Mrs.
|. Fl. Trimble, Mrs. Mag. Seybert,
Mrs James Wiley, Mrs Hannah
Simmons, Mrs. A. j. Waybright,
Misses Helen and Eva Campbell,
Phoebe Jones, Kate Gibson and
Lizzie Shumate.
Messrs W. Fl. Hiner. Joseph Glib
son, E. b. Whitelaw, S. W. Crum-
nett, John P. Gwin and W. p.
Jordon were there and helped
some.
Now that the ladies have done
the fancy work, it wouldn't be a
bad idea for the men to take the
money the ladies raised, and haye
on deposit. and buy a fence to en-
close the cemetery, and get the
credit for it.
Mr.. G. G. HanSel has a sample
of wire fence that looks we'll, is
strong and durable, and there is
money enough in hand to buy it..
Why not buy it and enclose the
cemetery at once. Do that.

Loss of Trees Caused By Gophers

A farmer at Tropico who has prac- tically lost his orange grove from the attacks of gophers, writes that he has read this department closely to find some remedy suggested for the gopher pest It is getting to be rare thing to see a number of trees in one or chard killed in this manner, and I at tribute 1t to the concerted action upon the part of the fruit growers, the char acter of the soil in many cases. and the intensive cultivation that destroys the roots and foliage upon which the gophers naturally feed. It has been said that the soil is too hot for thls troublesome rodent in many of the best orange-growing localities, but that must be a canard.
 Poisoning gophers is very uncer- tain method where the herbage IS plenty, as they will not eat poisoned food readily where there is pure food in abundance. Flooding the ground Is effective, but rarely practicable in the best fruit sections. Then the question falls back to trapping, where only few are found-and in a neighborhood ehoit Io ueoIioy Ihe peoI py heepiiS after them consistently. A few good cats kept about the farm is very eff fective way of keeping the gopher in check, and possibly bringing extermin- ation. It is one of the natural foods of the cat in this country and is not fatal as. constant diet. A Norwalk farmer tells me he has known a cat with kittens to bring in a dozen gophers in one day. Trapping is the most universal method of extermina- ton upon small farms, strychnine and bisulphide of carbon the main elements of poison-the one placed in grain, po- tatoes, etc.. and the other used as a fume. The bisulphide liquid forms a gas heavier than air, and penetrates to great distance along the burrows. Much has been published concerning the latter remedy, but reminder to try it might save the Tropico orchard ists hundreds of dollars.-Los Angeles Times.

Citrus Fruits in the East

Auction sales of California citrus fruits last week comprised seventy . two cars of oranges and two cars ol lemons as compared with seventy seven cars of oranges ana TOUT cale of lemons last week. Although LOW temperature during the week eXerteu a restricting influence on the market, nrices were very well maintained, anu large navels sold up to $4.5O per box. Medium sizes showed higher range +ban last week on strictly fancy trult' Most of the lemons were of ordinary oualitv. but were better taken than they have been of late. Indications noint to a firm future market on poth California oranges and lemons.
 Owing to heavier arrivals, the grape fruit market is 50 cents to Sl oil rom last week. Large sizes are not wanteu.
 A fine lot of Sunnower brand naVels from Redlands sold for the highest aV- craze of the week. The fruit was heavy. thin-skinned and packed III frst-class shape. A lot from this car sold in Baltimore for an average or SS.15 for regular sizes, and a sale In Boston showed equally good results. I uis car furnished an excellent opJect lesson for California growers and ship- pers. ,,
 Florida orange receipts have been very light this week. The same causes which have restricted trade in other products have greatly curtailed the or ange business, and the stores Of re- ceivers are piled with boxes ready TOT shipment. There is practically no change in prices. Fancy grape fruit is scarce and in good demand at 50 to ST per box, and as high as SS for feW extra fancy lots. Small sizes are down to $5. Tangarines per box, S9.5o to s5; Mandarins, $2.25 to $4.

Why Butter is Bitter

There is always more or less com plaint in winter about bitter butter, and wonder is expressed why it should be so. .,
 Butter very easily gets "off flavor, and one of the principal causes is want nf proper cleanliness in the stables when milk is being drawn.
 The rank odors and filth of stable very easily infect milk with a talnt which remains with it until it comes to the churn, and then a peculiar taste is transferred to the butter; no amount of rinsing and washing can remove it.
 The secret lies in not allowing the filth to fall into the pail, and in g1v- ing the stables proper ventilation and thorough daily cleaning.
 If a sufficient amount of good bed ding is given the cows it will largely obviate the necessity of cleaning their udders at each milking in order to prevent the filth from coming in con- tact with the milk.
 This may seem a small matter, put when the butter goes to market the exact difference between pure and i'm

To Cure Egg.eating Hens

There Is nothing more provoking and more improbable than flock of hens which has acquired the habit of eating their eggs, says H. s. Babcock. This is habit more easily prevented than cured. Give the hens plenty of exer- else, with variety of food Gather the eggs frequently, provide sufficient resting places and keep one or more porcelain eggs upon the floor of the house. Dark nests are advisable, and a meat diet is excellent.
 To cure the habit provide dark nests and add meat to the food. Remove the end from several eggs and pour out the contents. Make a mixture of flour, ground mustard and red pepper, adding little water to hold the ma terials together. Fill the shells and place upon the floor of the henhouse. The hens will make a wild scramble for these prepared eggs, will gobble down some of the contents, and will soon be gasping with open beaks. Fol low up this treatment until the hens refuse to touch an egg. It seems, and perhaps it is, somewhat severe, but no permanent ill effects will follow. The hens will soon learn that eggs are not so palatable as they regarded them and will desist from the bad habit Positive cures have followed this method.- Southern Fancier.

KING SCORES ARlSTOCRATS
Making Money Out of Coronation and
 Shirking Entertainment Obligations

Now that the route of the coronation parade has been settled, owners of houses which will afford a view of the procession are evicting tenants wher- ever possible, as was done at the time of Queen Victoria's jubilee. The great est sufferers are the poor people occu
 pying rooms overlooking the route on the squalid streets along the south side of the Thames. Extensive plans have been prepared already for erect
 ing stands along the route, and ridicu- lous stories are published of the colos- sal prices alleged to have been refused by householders at favorable points.
 The King, it is declared, has ex- pressed severe reproduction of the eff forts of aristicratic householders to utilize the coronation to make money by letting their houses to Americans and at the same time evading their duty as providers of entertainments.

MOstnnC Stated

An editorial in the National Home maker sums up the accomplishments of the movement for national irrigation in a most conclusive manner in the issue for January, adding five reasons for the phenomenal advancement of the idea of natic Il control. The Times has for years espoused this side of the contest, and Qu les with pleasure the succint summary of principles as set forth in the He nemaker:
 1. That the public lands are the property of the whole people of the United States. and must be admins tered for their benefit, and reserved for actual settlers under the homestead act.
 2. That the national government must build the great reservoirs and mainline canals necessary to bring water within reach of settlers.
 8. That the cost of irrigation works built by the national government to reclaim lands must be paid by the set tiers who get the lands.
 4. That the ownership of the re- claimed land and the water thus pro- vided for it's irrigation must be in- alienably united
 5. That where there are settled communities already in existence res ervoirs for flood storage and stream regulation should be built by the gov ernment as internal improvements, as recommended by the Chittenden rc- port.-Los Angeles Times.

Prince Henry's Visit

The New York Suns London corre- spondent says Prince Henrys visit to the United States claims larger share of public interest in Europe than any other approaching event. Re- iterated protests that it does not bear any pollIlcal significance serve simply to confirm the opposite conviction in the general European mind.
 It is not what Prince Henry will do that the European chancellories will watch with keener interest than any other development in the international relationship now pending, but what the American people will do. .

Ginseng That Failed

Quoting from the recent mott on ginseng a lady writes from Burbank that she has tried the cultivation of ginseng without success. The plants were purchased of good stock, and planted according to directions. She writes that this climate is too dry for this plant AS might have been ex- pected, there is string to these gin seng circulars, and note was writ ten to warn the farmers that the east ern promoters had an ulterior motive money without rendering value in return. The Burbank planter only re- veived a few small rootlets and a few seed for S5. Those who really believe there is future for this plant here may find better sources from which to get their stock than that of circular and unknown advertiser.
