California as Seen by Pullmanite.

Of the two great valleys of Califor-
MIA, the San Joaquin is the longest,
and it is a difficult matter to tell
where it ends. Any point named as
the southern terminus of this valley
would be a rather arbitrary procedure.
The ascent of this valley is a very
gradual one. of about one foot of the
mile.
South of Sacramento, the vinyards,
the vegetable gardens, and the hop
yards, vie with the poultry farms in
making this region very hive of in
dustry. The number of windmills
that dot the landscape is amazing, and
water from wells must be easy to OBJ
ain. The San Joaquin river is navi-
P%b1e to Stockton. distance Of fifty
miles from the capital. One peculiar
ity of Southern California is the
special things each section raises.
Stockton is noted as the home of the
insane asylum, and the center of the
greatest potato region in the state
Two hundred miles south of Sacrament
to is Fresno, city of 20, 600 people,
the county seat of Fresno county, and
the center of a remarkable section of
country. 1t is noted for its intense
heat, its abundant water. its immacu-
late oiled roads free from dust or mud,
its numerous wineries, its grapes and
it's peaches. But above and beyond
all else, its fame rests on its raisins.
Other regions may possibly equal its
luscious peaches, other places may
perhaps surpass it in wine and table
grapes. And yet others may outdo it
in oranges and lemons, but in no
place in America can the raisin be
raised and cured to such royal perfec-
tion. and in such quantities as in this
reclaimed desert of burning sands and
shimmering heat. Whether the cause
be found in the SOIL the abundant
water supply the turquoise sky, the
scorching sun, or the dewless nights,
| know not, but certainly this region
is alone and unequealed in its great
speciality.
All over the valley the pumpkin and
the watermelon are almost Indigenous.
Since irrigation gained such headway.
sub-irrigation has grown to such an
extent that many vinyards need but
little irrigation and wells are every
where.
Vegetation is rank and vigorous and
bird life is very plentiful, the most
plentiful being the valley quail, the
linnet, the blackbird and the southern
mockingbird. The latter seem to re-
joice day and night for their southern
home, and sing at all times. John
son grass is the greatest pest, although
l saw as vigorous specimens of cookie
burr there as l ever did on the river
bottoms of old Missouri, but of nox-
oius weeds, Johnson grass easily
holds first place. 1t is a rapid and
vigorous grower, springing from both
seed and roots. When a field is once
thoroughly occupied by it a long, des-
perate struggle is required to reclaim
the soil, as every joint of root left in
the ground will spring above the sur
face like Jacks beanstock.
Prices were very good last season
for both raisins and dried peaches.
The former sold for 63 and the latter
for 10A cents per pound. A great deal
of the land in raisin grapes and peach
es brought from $3.50 to $500 an acre.
Japs do the bulk of the work and are
great favorites with fruit growers of
that section. G.

ALANo OF NEW GU NsA.
Grass That Makes Fierce Warfare on
All Other Kinds Of Vegetation.

DR.. poch. the Austrian anthropo-
logist who has spent a long time in
New Guinea studying its natives and
its geography. tells of a remarkable
variety of grass that makes fierce
warfare upon other kinds of vegeta-
tion so that practically nothing else
grows where It gets a foothold
The natives call It alang. II has
tall thick and tough stalk. but its
greatest popularity is its roots, which
spread out through every particle OF
earth they reach and give It a matted
texture something like felt There Is
really no room left for the the roots
of any other kind of vegetation.
FieldJ of alang cannot exist in for
ests because the plant does not thrive
in the shade. Neither can any kind
Of tree make headway in patch of

The two kinds Of vegetation are an
tagonistlc. One viii not grow where
the other exists. Large patches OF
alang are found surrounded by tim

no trees will grow in them. Between
the alang and the forest is a sort OF

almost invariably give their services
without charge and follow as far as
possible the instructions and ideas OF
Wagner. For the most part they dis.

the part OF the audience. and never
recognize any applause that may be
given. When the operas were first
produced there. the audiences In.
variably remained silent but this rule
is not now generally observed. except
In the production Of "Parsifal." On
those occasions the object is to secure

The singer is supposed to be the mere

earnest address of these two men of
faith is found in Mum. 14-7. 8 and 8.
They said Fear them not. for the
Lord is with US. They thus showed
that faith in God and His promises
which marks the difference between
those trusting God and those who dc

Because of this supreme faith the
promise was made to Caleb by God
