CATTLEaTEN MAY RAISE
BOUNTY ON WILD ANIMALS
Woodland Stock Raisers VIII Meet to
Discuss Plans for Protection
Against Beasts.

WILLOWS, Sept. 24.-Dr. Charles
Keane. the State veterinarian, haS-just
paid an official visit to this vicinity.
He finds the cattle in an excellent con-
dition, but advises greater precaution
in the destruction of the carcasses of
dead animals. He advocates the COW
ering of the carcasses with coal oil
and then burning. This method has
proved quite effective in stamping out
the anthrax, which had gained quite
foothold in the region of Colusa,
and with it's continuance there for an
other month Keane expects to have
the disease entirely eradicated.
A mass meeting of the Stockmen's
Defense Association has been called to
further raise the bounty on animals
that prey upon stock. 1t is proposed
to raise the 50 so bounty on coyotes
and to place, a bounty on bears and
panthers.

ATTEMPT TO REPAIR DAMAGE.
Oakland Suffers From an Unexpected
and Unusual Fall of Rain

OAKLAND, Sept. 24.-Orders were
issued to-day by Street Superintendent
OFT directing his entire force to con-
tinue work on Sunday in an attempt
to repair the damage wrought by the
recent rainstorm and make passable
the streets flooded during the down
pour of the last two days.
Washed out GROSSLY walks, ruined Gull
verts, streets full of gullies and gut
ters clogged with refuse confront the
workmen. Night and day the men
have been working, repairing the ruin
caused by the deluge.
More men than are available could
be employed and the order has been
issued that "all hands are 20 work all
day Sunday to clear the streets"
Contractor William Heasey is the
greatest sufferer of those whose work
has been damaged by the storm. His
extensive sewering operations at San
Pablo avenue and Broadway have
been hndered and his trenches so de-
stroyed that his loss is estimated III
between $4,000 and $4,000.
The East Fourteenth-street sewer,

them to continue operations.
Rains washed away the newly
placed dirt at the high fill on Com
merce street. near East Sixteenth, and
the new sewer at Twenty-second ave-
nue. and Fourteenth street has caved
in for quite Il distance.
Many hundreds of telephones were
rendered useless by the high winds of
the last few days. but nearly all this
damage has been repaired.
The rainfall fer the last twenty-four
hours was /. 60 inches, making a total
of inches for the season. At this
time last year no rain had fallen.

has been no rain In this immediate sec
ton since the precipitation Of "a of an
inch on the 22d instant. All of the
streams are running full, and while
there has been some damage from
cloudbursts in the desert and noun
tain section the rainfall in the agri-
cultural districts has been just right
TO help and encourage the farmers. The
crop outlook is good and larger acre
ages Of all crops will be planted for the
next season.
SANTA CRUZ, Sept. 24.-The precip-
itation in Santa Cruz was more than
four inches at o'clock tonight, and
at Boulder Creek CTS inches. The table
grape crop on the vines is almost a
complete loss, and the loss of wine
grapes is very heavy. In the southern
part of the county the bean crop. which
is about 24OO tons. is almost totally de-
stroyed, as it was ungathered.
SANTA BARBARA, Sept. 24.-Santa
Barbara Is being subjected to an un-
precedented deluge. At o'clock this
evening the precipitation was $50
inches. Previous to the present storm
the September rainfall has never been
more than 81. this amount falling In
1898. The storm has done untold dam
age to the lima bean crop. and in the
city the violence of the storm has been
so great that trees have been uprooted
and other damage done.
SANTA ROSA, Sept. 24.-Rain fell
here in great quantities to-day. The
streets were flooded almost from curb
to curb. Thunder and lightning came
at intervals. Late this afternoon the
rain came down in torrents.
FRESNO, Sept. 24.-Rain has been
falling here steadily all day. Though
the weather forecasts given out by
Weather Observer Bolton gave the raj
sin growers plenty of time to stack
their trays, many raisins have been
ruined. Those who thought to save
money and use paper trays will be out
most of their crops. 1t has rained near
ly a half-inch to date and showers still
continue. Many of the soaked raisins
will be sold TO wineries at nominal
prices.
WILLOWS. Sept. 24.-So far the rain
fall for this storm registers in the
neighborhood of three inches. The
weather is still threatening and more
rain probably will fall tonight. While
it will bring uD the young grass if fol-
lowed BY a warm spell and will make
fine pasturage. the rain will cause con-
siderable damage to the late fruit
crops. on Packers Island there were
about forty tons of prunes still in the
trays. Along the river levee there is es-
timated to be in the neighborhood OF
10, 600 sacks of grain in this county
alone. This grain was placed there
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1904-09-25

prunes and some peaches in the drying
yards. If warm sunshine follows the
storm very little damage will be done
to prunes. If it continues wet and
cool the loss will be large. Wine
grapes are considerably damaged, but
the acreage is small and the total loss
in the vineyards will be small.
GRAIN ON RIVER BANKS.
COLUSA, Sept. 24-It is raining
hard here tonight, with indications
that il will continue throughout the
night Along the river banks are
+, nearly 100, 600 sacks of barley await
ing shipment. The rain is doing much
damage to this grain. Steamers with
extra barges are now working to get
the grain TO shelter. There are about
1900 tons of prunes spread out on
trays drying. but these have been
stacked. Thus far the damage to
prunes has not been heavy. Should
the storm continue much longer the
damage will be great.
VENTURA. Sept. "a. Another
drenching rain visited this county to-
DAY, making the precipitation at this
point three-quarters of an inch. In the
mountain sections the precipitation is
much heavier than in the valleys. The
bean growers are feeling pretty blue
over the outlook, though If bright
weather follows much Of their crop
will be saved. The small beans are
likely to suffer more than the limas,
because the pods are thinner. Beets
and walnuts are not injured. The fate
of the lima bean crop depends on how
Icing the soggy weather continues. The
crop is all right as yet.
REDDING, Sept. 24.-Four inches of
rain has fallen in Redding since Tues
day morning and tonight the indica-
tions are excellent ror a continued
downpour The crops are damaged
considerably. What few prunes there
were. about half crop, were undergo
ing the drying process when the storm
commenced and many were ruined.
Other fruit suffered TO very great de-
gree
The hay crop was baIed and under
cover before the rain came.
The miners are jubilant over the rain
and want more.
NAPA. Sept. 24-There was a severe
rainstorn, accompanied by thunder
and lightning, here tonight. The rain
fall for the storm up to tonight is $40
inches.
