SCIENCE OF HoME-MAKING.
Why So Successfully Studied and
Practiced in California.

At the present ruling price of land
in California, less money will procure
land enough to support a family well
than in any other part of our vast
country. There are in that state thou
sands of families earning a good liv-
ing, with all the necessaries and many
of the luXuries of life, and with some
thing laid by each year for a rainy
day, on tracts of from ten to twenty
acres. Many thousand acres of such
land. still unOccupied or poorly farmed
are now on the market at very rea-
sonable prices, say from twenty to one
hundred dollars per acre, according to
location and surroundings.
So fertile is the soil and so genial
the climate that a place becomes pro-
ductive in an incredibly short space of
time Something may be realized
even the first year. while the third or
fourth year will bring an income that
may be increased from year to year
for many years. This result, of
course, presupposes intelligence and
industry, which are necessary to sue
cess in any undertaking.
A soil quick and fertile. responding
generously to good culture, a climate
where cyclones and tOrnadOeS are I'M
known, and where sunstrokes and ra-
bies never occur, and where for near
the whole year it is a luxury to live
CnIy California can offer
During most of the year the table
may be supplied with fresh fruits and
vegetables, all of home raising. The
fig, vine, olive, peach, apricot and nee
tarine bear abundantly, while much of
the state will produce citrus and other
suhtropical fruits with but little care.
With reasonably good judgment in
selecting the land, and the knowledge
that the experience of the last twenty
years has made common property in
regard to what shall be planted and
how it shall be cared for industry and
economy are sure to be rewarded with
splendid results.

tax for surplus is the result of taxation.
1t is also true that in this country prac-
tically all national taxation is levied on
the consumption of goods. The question
arises whether it would not be better
investment to let down few tariff bars
in return for foreign market conces-
sions as provided in the Kasson recip-
rocity treaties and thereby aid our
industries while at the same
time we spend no more of the con-
tax money and possibly lessen
the cost of his necessary commodities.
The Times Republican is in favor of
high taxes on such articles as beers and
luxuries and a let down on the poor
mans necessities wherever it can be
seen that a reduction OF the tariff in
reciprocity treaty will actually lower the
price of the commodity and not stagnate
an American industry. Protection
where protection is needed has always
been good American investment, but
the opinion is quite general that few

themselves without the tariff nursing

SUBSIDIES AND RECIPROCITY.

| One OF the strongest arguments adj
ganced in favor of ship subsidies is the
comparison made with the benefits al
ready accruing to the country from the
generous land grants to western rail-
roads. These lands given to railway
were in the nature of a
ssubsidy and the wonderful impulse they
lave to railway building developed the
vest in twinkling. 1t is now claimed

BRYAN DON'T LIKE IT.

While Governor Shaws appointment
as secretary of the treasury has been
quite favorably received in both east
and west. and but little hostile criticism
has resulted, occasionally there is dis
cordant note, like the following from
William Jennings Bryan. Nothing in
the way of approval was expected from
him, however, and his opinion is merely
given to satisfy public curiosity.
Bryan declares his belief that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is playing for renomi-
nation at the hands of corporations in
appointing Payne and Shaw. He says:
'Payne's selection is not only surpris-
ing when we remember the presidents
reiterations about civic virtue but 1t is
proof positive that the president Is snap
ing his administration to secure NOM
NATION at the hands Of the next repub-
lican convention.
THE appointment of Ex-Governor
Shaw to the place made vacant by the
resignation of Secretary Gage is eVi-
dence of Mr.. Roosevelt's purpose to let
the financiers have their way in con-
Quoting of the treasury department. II
there is anything bad in finance that Mr..
Shaw has not endorsed it Is because the
matter has not been brought to his at
tention. He has been an ultra gold man
end an ultra advocate of the doctrine
that the treasury department should be
run according to the wishes of Wall
street.
ION the trust question he is entirely in
sympathy with the corporations. At the
conference of western and southern gov
errors called to consider the trust ques-
ton, he was the only one who spoke on
the subject in a fiippant vein, the only
one who dared to espouse the cause OF
the trusts. AS governor of Iowa he has
been the friend Of the corporations. With
him at the head of the nations finances
the ordinary, everyday people who
make their living by labor will receive
little consideration"
When it is remembered that Governor
Shaw dealt Bryan's silver theories some
OF the hardest blows in 1896, 1t is not
surprising that the discarded leader
should cherish resentments.

NEW JERSEY SENATOR TO BE CHOSEN.

The death of Senator Sewell, republi-
tan, Of New Jersey, makes the selection
Of successor important at this time.
It is fortunate for the party he repre-
anted that the legislature, which is to
assemble on the 18th of this month, is
TO be under the control OF republicans
There are six aspirants for his seat, the
two most prominent being ex-United
States Attorney General John w. Griggs
and John F. Dryden, president of the
Prudential Insurance Company of
America. The others are Congressman
John ]. Gardner. Edward G. Stokes, Da-
oXid Baird and Barker Gummere. AS
Sewell was from the southern section Of
the state, and Senator John Kean, his
sco-laborer in the upper chamber. is
from the northern half the friends Of
the latter urge that the new man should
be taken from the south, in order not to
interfere with Kean's plans for re-elec-
4ion. So far az can be learned by a
writer familiar with the situation, the
great mass Of the people of New Jersey
are not greatly moved by the sectional
Aplea. What concerns them most is that
the man chosen should be one in every
way fitted to maintain New Jerseys
reputation in Washington, an able.
tlean and unyielding advocate of the
pest interests of the state. 1t seems to
De generally agreed. moreover, that
Senator Kean will be reelected, no mat
ter what the result of the present con-
test.
Attic Griggs and Dryden are both
residents of the northern part OF New
Jersey, they are men who stand out con-
spicuously as leaders, and each is said
to measure up to the highest standard.
The senate would be fortunate il either
should be elected.
