Eggs for Matching

"It is often problem why we secure good hatches from part of the eggs placed under hens, while but poor re- suits are obtained from other sittings. In the first place, in a majority of cases, the trouble is with the eggs, and not with the hens," says Charles A. Arrick in the Agricultural Epito- mist. Hence, he says, Git would be well if the eggs were tested after being under the hen for a week the incubator operators understand this and why should not the same practice be followed with sitting hens? It is an easy matter. Make an egg tester by pasting paper boards together, or by using thin boards if preferred. The eggs will appear dark should they con- tain chicks the large end appearing clear; this clear space around the in- side of the large end is the air sack. Should the egg contain no chick, it will look clear, and it compared with fresh eggs, will show the same ap- pearance; therefore always use fresh egg tor comparison. Put the dark eggs back into the nest and keep the clear ones. Cook them and keep them for feeding the young chicks"

President Roosevelt has put his signature to the public buildings ap- propriation bill and that measure is now law. Los Angeles can now figure definitely on its new public building.
 Reresentative McLachlan will lose no time in putting the machinery in motion.

PARK REGULATIONS
Interior Department Makes Changes if
 Policy Governing Them

The interior department has promul- gated new regulations that make inn portant changes in the policy govern ing the Yosemite, Sequoia and General Grant national parks in California. Under the new rules owners of patent ed land within the park limits are entitled to their full use and enjoy ments, but the metes and bounds of the lands shall be marked so as to be distinguished readily from the parks. Stock may be taken over the park lands to patented lands under the super vision of the superintendent.
 The herding or grazing of loose stock or cattle of any kind upon government lands in the parks or driving them over the same is strictly forbidden ex- cept where authority is granted by the superintendent.
 The regulations provide against the sale or use of liquor, posting adver- tisements or herding of live stock in the parks without authority, also fish ing for profit or in any other way than with hook and line.

Saving the Wa1nuts

The Herald correspondent at Fuller ton reports that Professor Newton B. Pierce, United States pathologist in chalgesof the experiment station there, "spent May 20 in one of the local walnut orchards, making a careful in- vestigation of the conditions of the crop and the walnut disease. The professor is making some extensive ex- periments in this locality with the walnut disease, notably in the orchards of w. A. Worms and Mir. Lowering on
 Orangethorpe avenue, where he is spraying with three different solutions.
 Professor Pierce has been making these investigations for some time and gave out every hope for the ultimate

IN FIELD OF HUSBANDRY
TOPICS OF INTEREST TO FARMER
 AND ORCHARDIST
Early Apricots In Kings County-Light Crop In Santa Clara valley-Cause t0f Pear Blight Saving The Walnuts-lndio Mellons Will Be RipeThis Week.

A press dispatch from Hanford says that the apricot crop Tn Kings county is at least three weeks earlier than crop will be heavy. Picking is expect ed to begin about June 10 and help is scarce. There is a demand for 5000 people to work in the orchards.
 The San Jose News says that the asparagus season is now at its height, and Santa Clara county growers are reaping q golden harvest as the result of their plants. This vegetable is grown in great profusion in various parts of the valley, and good prices are reported, both as market article and for canning purposes.
 The Oroville Mercury says that the ripe olives that were picked and placed on sale there in the fall have now been almost all disposed of. It does not think there are 100 gallons left in or near the town. The demand for such olives is increasing from year to year, and the time is coming when all that can be grown will find ready market.
 The Napa Register says that while there are orchardists here and there who will gather light crop of prunes, fruit trees generally in Napa county are heavily loaded, and yield will be ali the producer can ask for. William NJ. Fisher, whose orchards and fruit packing establishments are northwest of town, says the prospects hereabouts are most satisfactory. He recently made tour of the valley, and speaks by the card.
 The Healdsburg Tribune says that a couple of Santa Clara county's fruit raisers visited Healdsburg, and in company with representative of the Tribune visited several of the prune orchards on Dry creek. These gentle men, after giving a careful examina- tion, stated that the conditions in Santa Clara valley were identical with those found in Sonoma county. From some cause the prune crop in the Santa Clara valley will be light, hardly one- half crop, or just about what may be expected here, while other kinds of fruit will probably prove fall crop.

Coachella Valley Melons

The Indio Submarine of May 17 reports that the "melons are netting nicely all through the Coachela valley, and some of them will be ripe this week, Y" and adds that Git is safe to say that small shipments will be made by next Saturday, and that more extensive shipments will go forth June l, and on. And those famous early cante- loupes at Rocky Ford are just coming to the top of the ground. They will be ripe some time in July, the latter part probably. In the Rocky Ford country 460O acres of melons have been planted, as against 800 in the Coach- ella valley. Our growers will have the money for their crop in their pock- cts before the Rocky Ford people com mence shipping"

Cattleman Shot Best

A special to the Salt Lake Tribune from Sunnyside, Utah, says: Tom Dill lick, a cattleman shot and killed Steve Chipman, prominent sl,eepman, and shot Chipman' s Mexican herder through the left hip, eight miles north of Sum nyside Friday afternoon. The herder, bleeding profusely managed to ride his horse to town and notified the authorities. The men quarreled over range rights. A party went to the scene of the shooting after Chipman s body which was found lying where it had fallen.

KERN WILL GIVE POWER
River Will Prope1 Street Cars in Los
 Angeles

In year Los Angeles and surround ing towns and cities will receive elec- trical power and light transmitted by the Kern River company no miles, from Kern river, and Bakersfield will receive power and light from the same source. The Kern River company will supply 10000 horse power of electricity to the Pacific Electric and Power com pany, the new organization of Los Angeles capitalists that has absorbed the San Gabriel Electric company and the smaller concerns that were allied with the San Gabriel. Thursday the Kern River company let contracts for the construction of twenty-mile power canal that will have capacity of 30, ,000 miners inches of water. The canal will draw it's supply of water from Kern river beginning at point near Kernville, and following the course of the river to point at which an immense power plant, with a capacity of 15,0O0 horse power, will be built. Contracts were let for grad ing at cost of about $200,000, for lumber to the amount of 75,000, and contract will soon be let at price of nearly $30, ,000 for hauling materials and machinery. Machinery for the generation of electricity will be order- ed at once, but owing to the inability of machinery manufacturers to supply the demand for the product of their factories, it is believed that nearly a year will elapse before the machinery can be delivered. Contracts to the amount of $1 ,250, ,000 for construction work and materials were signed by representatives of the company.
 The Kern River company will sup ply power to the Huntington-Hellma eletric railway syndicate for the opera tion of cars in Los Angeles and over the interurlan system of railways of the Pacific Electric Railway company. in addition to supplying currents to the Pacific Electrical company for lighting and power and to the Redondo Railroad company for operation of it's cars to Redondo. Electricity will also be transmitted to Bakersfield and Randsburg and to San Bernardino and other towns nearer to Los Angeles. Construction of the line to San Ber- nardino is now under way. There will be two lines of wires to Los Angeles, each no miles in length.
