Where Drummers Are Taxed.

Commercial travellers licenses In
the British South African colonies and
protectorates amount to $500 annual
ly, says the Consular and Trade Re-
port. A new tax imposed by the Por-
tuguese government in Delagoa bay
increase the burden. This new IL
cense must be taken out quarterly,
but it amounts to yearly tax of s235.
If an agent remains only one day in
the district and neither brings sam
pies nor rents a desk, he is adjudged
to be a commercial traveller, and
therefore, liable to these charges. a
very heavy penalty hanging over his
head for noncompliance.

45 ACRES IN ROSES
UNIQUE FARM IN
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.
Forty-Iivc Acres OF Ground Has Over
100000 Growing Rose Plants Upon
It--Slow Process of Preparing the
Tiny Shoots for Market-RoSe
Plants Attain Two Years Growth I'm
One Year in California.

The following entertaining descrip-
ton of a 45-acre rose farm near Los
Angeles, Cal, is from the Midwinter
number of the Los Angeles Times:
A visit to the home of 100000 rose
plants, many of them in full bloom,
and running riotously over As acres of
ground, is one Of the rare treats of
Southern California, and an expert
ence one can not but treasure up as
among the pleasantest OF a lifetime.
They were in all stages of growth,
from the smallest of softwood cut
tings, snugly tucked away in artific-
tally heated glass houses, additionally
covered with canvas. to the blossoming
plants, already matured and large
enough to be started on their long
journey east.
In December of each year the tiny
cuttings are started, six beds of the
softwood cuttings, with 10000 to a
bed. They are placed in sand which is
pounded down hard TO retain the
moisture. These propagating beds are
we'll supplied with bottom heat. Here
they are left until they are rooted,
which generally takes about five
weeks.
They are then transplanted to the
smallest Of pots. and placed in the
greenhouse, where an even tempera-
ture is maintained. There are now
10000 potted cuttings that will re-
quirc a years growth in the field be-
fore being ready for shipment. OF
the coftwood cuttings about so per
cent are lost. After they are placed
| in the field the loss is only 10 to Is
per cent.
The hardwood cuttings need no
transplantlng, for they are placed in
the field from the first. The present
number of these now growing is 200. .
| 000, and from go to 70 per cent sur
vive. The plants are irrigated every
1Sh days with about 80 inches of
water, running continuously for 176
hours. The water used is from Sam
tiago creek.
| In December the plants are prepar-
cd for shipment. They are stripped
of all their leaves by japanese labor
ers, who wear muleskin mittens pro-
cured in Alabama expressly for such
thorny work. The plants are left
from two and a half to three inches
high. and packed in bundles of 2s
each. with the roots wrapped in damp
ened moss.
They arc then stored in rows in the
refrigerator cars, the doors of which
are built up with gunny sacks to hold
the plants in. Upon their arrival at
Newark the cars are run directly into
frostproof cellars. from which the
plants are Immediately Distributed n
