Sacramento. Cal, June 23.-The
California deciduous season is far
ahead of last year, as there have
been shipped 204 cars. against 81
year ago. shipments by varieties
have been; Cherries, l3S cars; an
ricots, A cars; peaches, cars;
plums, 10 cars.
The districts shipping the bulk of
the various varieties are: Cherries,
San Jose; apricots, Winters; peaches,
Placer, and plums, VaUayille. About
three-fourths of the cherry crop has
been shipped. The estimate on the
crop is about 200 cars. So far prices
have been good and the promise is
they will continue to sell we'll
The apricot crop will be short
probably 2 per cent-but a larger
shipment of peaches is not expected
because of the failures in other sec
tions. \ big portion OF the Califor-
MIA peach crop goes to canneries; but
If the market rules better during the
harvest, they will be diverted to re-
frigerator cars.
The best data on the Sacramento
River pear crop is that il will be
about 10 per cent Of the normal.
Though it is a little early to give any
figures ON the possible grape crop
the bloom is excellent The damage
comes, as a rule, during the hot sum
mer, when the vines are liable to
burn. Good prices are being offered
on contract basis.

the church and rural problems, eco

FOR IMPROVEMENT
OF LAKE CHAMPLAIN
CHANNEL IL FEET DEEP AND 200
FEET WIDE.
$751;, 900 Appropriation Asked BY En-
gineer Bixby.

Burlington, Vt-The report Of
Chief of Engineers w. H. Bixby OF
the United States army, asks for
an appropriation of $4,000 for
the improvement OF the "narrows"
in Lake Champlain, north of White
hall. The report also requests a
maintenance fee Of $4,000 a year.
Lieut.. R. D. Black, who has often WIS.,
tied this section, is responsible for
the report, Chief Engineer Bixby ad-
vises channel depth of IL feet and
width at the bottom of 200 feet.
The work should be completed in
three years. The improvement to
the narrows is designed to afford the
needed facilities through this link
between Lake Champlain and the
canal system of New York state. If
let in its present condition, it would
be obstructive to the commerce which
it is hoped will result from the large
expenditure being made in the
waterways by New York.
