The Vine Hopper

This pest is reported to be unusual ly troublesome in the vineyards of Fresno county. There has never been found an effectual remedy for the hop per. He works mostly on the under- side of the leaf, and it is impossible to get to him with spray among the dense foliage of the vine. Some reme- dial measures more or less successful are to turn sheep in the vineyard after the crop is harvested, the animals eating the leaves with the hopper or starving the latter to death by taking away their food. Sheets of sticky fly paper attached to sticks are held over or at the side of the vine while the insects are driven onto them by second person. They may be attracted to any kind of trap by light at night, and kerosene emulsion forced onto the under side of the leaves will kill those it reaches. The hoppers do not have wings on their first appearance. At this time fumigation with buhach burnt over coals would destroy many of them. Cutting surplus canes so that vineyards could be plowed early in the fall, and narrowing or culti- vating clean would undoubtedly do much toward killing those that are left to start the next years crop.-San Jose Herald

A Suggestion About Pear Blight

This disease has created strife be- tween the bee men and pear growers and the trouble bids fair to continue. It is positively known that it is bacterial disease and is therefore sus- ceptible to the remedies which are used to kill these lower forms of vege- tation. Some of the intelligent pear growers of the East have followed up this idea by using these methods and claim a fair amount of success as re- ward for their labor. Lime and sulphur were sprayed on the trees just before the blossom buds opened and there was a perceptible decrease in the aght. mount of bli Whether it was due to the spraying or because it might have happened so from other causes is not known. At any rate it seems to be the only reasonable solu- Should it come within the powers of the horticultural commissioners to enforce proper spraying at the proper time, no doubt great good would come from it. Any one who has passed through or worked in an orchard soon after it has been sprayed with lime,
 sulphur and salt, even if the day was moderately warm, could not help noting the strong fumes of sulphur.
 With this condition of the atmosphere it must be very difficult for the germs of the pear blight to survive. If the favorable results claimed by the east ern grower are due to the spray, our California climate should make it more effective, for it is the heat of the sun which makes the remedy active. This, coupled with the cutting of the infected branches as soon as the disease makes it's appearance, care being taken to cut far below the point that shows the disease, ought to make quite decrease in the amount of damage that is being done. The treat ment should work some good even though other orchards in the neighbor- hood were not so treated. Perhaps a sulphuring with the dry powder might do some good.-California Cultivator.

one of the most original and incontro- vertable reports ever rendered the Indian Department. No outsiders word was taken for granted and the safety of this course was manifested by the fact that the streams measured were found to run from two-thirds to one- tenth less that the estimates made by owners and others, and hitherto accepted without dispute by govern ment inspectors, as is seen in their signed reports.
 Over two days were spent on the Montserrat Rancho, the tract recom- mended by the last government inspec- tor sent through Southern California, and so objectionable to the Indians as a location for their new homes. This tract was found to be worse piece of land than the most strenuous protests against it had represented. Of water there was scarcely any; and the price asked the government is three times what it has already sold for twice. In it's inspection of thirty-five ranches the commission ran across many own CTS who entertained the usual idea that it is good business to "soak" the HONeTUIneUb OIt tne JncOTy tDtb HO SON- ernment man knows the difference {; but as result of the stand taken by the commission, large reductions in the original offers were made in almost every instance, in one case the reduc- tion amounted to 30 per cent.
 The land hunters have found from a dozen to fifteen purchasable tracts which, they believe, are better than any present Indian reservation in the whole West; and fully illustrated report, with recommendations, will be made to the government. probably within eight days. The field work of the commission is not quite done yet, as there are still several minor proper ties to be inspected in nearby local ities.
 When the final act in the life drama of the Cupano exiles will take place is still an uncertainty. Presumably the government will see fit to move the Indians from their present homes as soon as the commissions recom- mendations can be acted upon. The actual uprooting of the tribe will be the delicate juncture of the whole affair. How it will be done is still a question:.
 Of the total appropriation made for the aid of these Indians, $50, ,000 will be used in moving and locating them in such manner that they may start their new life even with the world. If present plans carry they will be fur

periments of the government in the history of Indian affairs.
 In territory where this sort of work has hitherto been undertaken by tenderfeet inspectors from the East, with a ten days acquaintance with the country, compiling no actual data of their own, but taking for granted the prejudiced statements of land owners who were anxious to sell, this party of men has gone laboirously down to the heart of the facts, taken professional measurements of all water flows, and lands examined, all backed by long personal acquaintance with conditions here in the arid West.
 Wherever the waters of the wilder ness were measured with the accurate water weir, photograph was made of the process, showing beyond dispute the streams and their surroundings and these, with innumerable ott CT photographs of each purchasable tract considered, will go to the making of

A New Sulphuring Process

The Hanford Sentinel reports a new process for sulphuring fruits while curing them, which has been adopted by the Ensign Packing company, the device originated with the foreman, Henry Treat, and the engineer, c. N Gallon, employed by the company. It operates ten bleachers, with a combin- ed capacity of 15,0OO pounds of fruit, are all sulphured from one smudge and the amount of sulphur consumed will not exceed the amount usually required in operating one single bleacher on ranch; and it is said that 80 per cent of sulphur can be saved by utilizing the new device. There is also a large saving of labor It is further said that there is no patent on the device, and that no roy alty is being asked. In other words, it is free to all, and growers or others interested are welcomed at the Ensign Packing house, there to familiarize themselves with the invention, and to get the measurements necessary to place the same arrangement in their bleaching sheds.

Will Raise Turtles

The turtle industry is to be tried in Carpenteria, Santa Barbara county, and the enterprise is undertaken by Dr. Cauch, who has on his place at Carpenteria an abundance of water for the turtles to occupy, and as there is little else requisite for their successful growth, it is expected that the experi- ment will prove paying venture, for there is growing market for these cho ce articles of food, and he antici- pates no difficulty in disposing of his product, says the Press.

THE GREAT AMPHITHEATRE
Point Loma, Cal.-Formal Dedication
 July 4th

The most notable and striking Fourth of July celebration this year will be that held at Point Loma, California. Here will be gathered several hundred representatives from all quarters of the globe, and here, too, the past and the present will join hands in the great Grecian Amphitheatre, which, on that occasion, will be formally dedicated by impressive and pictur- esque services such as only Katherine Tingley and the students of the Uni versal Brotherhood Organization can devise and carry out successfully.

Hundreds of Summer Pupils

In point of numbers the State Uni versity mid-term session will probably lead the summer school of any institu- tion in the United States. On Friday the enrolment at the local college was 744, and as several days yet re- main for enrolment it is Lelieved that the number of students will reach nearly 1000. Last year Berkeley was second to Harvard University. The session will continue until August 6.

Recently Frederick Warde, the tragedian, paid visit to the Point Loma Homestead and was entertained by series of historical tableaux in the Aryan Temple by children oi the Raja Yoga School. The great actor could hardly find suitable words with which to express his appreciation of the remarkable things he saw and heard there. but when he was con ducted to the Amphitheatre he threw up his hands in delight and remained speeches.. "This is the climax" he finally said. and then upon the invita- tion of Katherine Tingley he advanced to the center of the Amphitheatre and recited "All the Worlds a Stage" as only Frederick Warde can recite it.
 The location of the Amphitheatre is ideal in every imaginable way. It occupies little rift or box canyon that the winds and rains of long cen- turies have rounded out to a perfect contour. A writer in The New Gen. tury thus describes it:
 "Standing in the middle of the upper tier of seats, we look arcoss the stage space, which is one hundred and fifty feet deep. by over one hundred feet wide, into the recesses of the water worn canyon with its countless pillars of rich brown red soil, around and among which the foliage has sprung up luxuriantly. At the other end of | hn IaE1a holf ,,,;1n E., ocean, and from the point of vantage we can look away and away, across the water, until the eye is arrested by Catalina Island, one hundred and twenty-five miles distant. No painted nature scenes are needed here, with their flat and motionless colors. Here is scene which gives to the sight ar actual passage of one hundred and twenty-five miles of nature, and every instant sees change of hue, and every passing cloud and every dergee of the suns journey are pressed into oul service as scene shifters.'
 In this modern reproduction of the ancient Grecian open-air theatre Katherine Tingley and her students propose to revive the old Greek mys- tery plays and symposiums, not, how ever, only the basis of professional theatrial venture, but as department of the altruistic and humanitarian work of the Universal Brotherhood, known as the Isis League of Music and Drama, whose chief purpose is tc "educate the people to knowledge of the true philosophy of life by means of dramatic. presentations of a high standard and the influence of the grander harmonies of music"
 Some of the brightest children oi the Raja Yoga School are under careful training in the School of Dramatic Art. Weekly they present original plays, and their work is exciting keen interest among the eduationalists who visit Point Loma. Some of their plays have been given amid nature surround ings in the great Amphitheatre.

Indian Commission Out of Wilderness

After travelling through the wilder ness some five hundred miles by wagon and horseback, and having inspected several hundred thousand acres of land, the Warmers Ranch Indian Com mission has returned from its mission among the Indians of Southern Cali fornia. The outfit was left at Temecula, the two Indians who accompanied the party returning to their homes from there. A junta was held with the Temecula natives, who long ago lost their lands to the whites.

Democracy; that is the position of the
Wake Democracy; that is the position OF
the Rowan Democracy; that is the posi-
ton of the Buncombe Democracy. 1t is
umphant Democracy of North Carolina.
That party is not threshing over old
issues. 1t tried to settle the negro ques-
ton; it hopes it is settled for twenty
years. But it is resolved to keep its
feet planted on that Pandoras box and
stomp ('stomp' is a good world the po-
litical life out of any man or set of men
who try to open it. The Republicans can
not open it. They are powcrless. The only
danger to Democracy is in so-called in
dependence7the sort of independence
that looks to independent candidates to
weaken the strength of Democracy.
Mr.. Busbee doubtless thinks that in
dependent action in politics will prove as
salutary as in some Northern States.
But Mr. Busbee is mistaken if he sup
poses that it is to the interest of the
people of North Carolina to take a single
step that may make Republican victory
possible in any section of North Carolina.
1t may be that the Halifax Democrats
have become a little suspicious when
even the best of men preach ''independ-
ence." That was the siren song the
Liberals sang as they marched into the
Republican party. That has. been the
burden of the speech of every man who
was pluming himself for a fly into the
Republican camp. Having in view Mr..
Busbee's refusal to support the National
Democratic ticket and his recent affilia-
ton with Col. w. H. Day and Daniel l..
Russell, is it surprising that the "un-
terrified of Halifax were suspicious of
Mr.. Busbees new talk of independent
political action?" Was it not natural
that they feared he was adroitly en-
couraging disaffection? Was it a COIN
cidence merely that Mr.. Busbee in Hall
fax and Mr.. Tompkins in CASTOR, should
have chosen such themes for Fourth of
July orations? Some people think that
those speeches, together with certain
editorials, were part of a concerted de-
sign to weaken the Democratic party.
