Of the public library. The fire OF 1906
destroyed the library yet in six years
the number OF readers Is only l,6is less
than IN the year before the fire. There
are 1900 less books in the library now
than then. but they are used much more.
Before the fire there were io.72 persons
holding cards: now there are 39.01S card
holders. The branches have shown even
more wonderful growth. The Mission
branch has only 400 less cards than the
main library. Mr.. Phelan, a trustee, who

Tho war between the grape owners and
the wine makers in California has reached
SO acute a stage that many viticulturists
In tho San Joaquin and Sacramento VAL
leys are roofing up their grape vines and
planting the land to figs, peaches, al
monds and other fruit trees that promise
better revenue. The prices OF grapes
have fallen so low this season that there
is no longer any profit In growing them,
and no improvement is expected for sew
eral seasons. The spread OF prohibition
I'm California has had much to do with this
decline In the price OF grapes, but much
Of 1t Is also due to the desire of the wine
