An easy method within the reach OF
all fruit growers is to evaporate or

There are various styles and sizes OF
evaporators, ranging from those which
will handle bushel day and set on

nercial plants which will handle 100
bushels or more in "a hours. Practi-

Such things as these were coming

fear in the hearts of every one in the
state of New York. 1t was at about
this time that the demand was made
for casket which would Withstand
the depredations of these fiends. At
first a cast-iron box was made, but
shortly after this the modern ghoul-

springs which fasten securely on the

THE DEPARTMENT ACTS.
Steps Taken to Stop Ravages o
Wolves and Mountain Lions.

Germ killing and bug hunting of one sort
or another are old pastimes with the De-
partment of Agriculture, but It Is only re-
Gently that Secretary Wilson has had to go
after game the size of wolves and mountain
lions. This has come about, however,
through complaints from the stockmen or
the west. where 1t is said that the var
minis are increasing rapidly as to seri-
ously threaten some sections Of the cattle
country. The department has already sent
out one experienced hunter after mountain
lions" which, of course, are not lions at
ALL but cougars And now ii has detached
a member of the biological survey, Mr..
Vernon Bailey, and sent him out wolf catch
ing.
Wolves and mountain lions are giving the
StoCkmen a good deal of trouble on the
ranges in several of the national forest
reserves. Vigorous complaints have been
made TO the forest service of the loss OF
cattle and sheep. particularly cattle, from
this cause. Protection is sought by the
stockmen, and the forest service, which col
iects a fee for the grazing permits has
promptly assumed the task of finding and
putting into effect practical measures TO
aid the cattle owners in discriminating the
destructive animals.
The chief difficulty has been on the Wind
river division OF the Yellowstone reserve, In
Wyoming. Some of the live stock cam

are increasing rapidly that the future
welfare of the cattle industry is In serious
danger. Among the proposals which these

Certain parts of Mob hill are still untouched. though very threatening. The fire is raging around Union and Franklin streets with every prospect of continuing.
 Ut now looks as if the entire city will be burned before the fire is stop ped. A section bounded by Union and Octavia streets and Golden Gate ave- nue and another lying between Market Hays and Fillmore streets are about all that is left of the city north of Mar ket street. There is a section o' the Mission district. south of Market street. which has not yet been burned.
