Fences for Frost

Pasadena Daily News: With con-
gress impOrtuned to appropriate
100000 to investigate and perfect a
system Of frost prevention in the citrus
and deciduous fruit regions of the
United States and the California legis-
lature inclined to lend what help. it
can by authorizing a deposit of state
funds to the extent of S2,0OO,O0O, to
be loaned to growers at low rate Of
interest for one year or more, the pros
pect Of great good arising out Of what
seemed at first hopeless situation in
inspiring to all concerned. Meanwhile
more encouraging reports are received
from the affected fruit districts, the
benefcian rains promising returns es-
timated worth half million dollars a
day to The growers.
We are greatly Interested in the plan
advanced by Editor E. F. Howe of the
iiiptiioi NollCy W ltlCC OuU lIOSlS.
in past years, following heavy vista
tions, he has ''trailed the frost streaks
to their lairs" and is satisfied from his
observations that, like currents of air.
the frost waves flow in to the citrus
fruit districts from higher attitudes.
He would block the advent of these
cold currents by building high and
tight fences in the known line of the
frost channels. 1t is his theory that
the frost germs, like many tight skirt
ed women, cannot climb a fence. He
would defect the currents around AMI
away from the groves instead Of try %
ing to "heat all outdoors" by means
of smudges.
At least, Mr.. Howe's theory is not
unreasonable and the remedy he sug
SestS is simple. He calls attention t.
the fact that the frost, generated on
steep mountain sides. glides down the
canyons into the valleys, the coli
heavy air always being confined II
channels like water, save that, being
lighter, it is more easily driven out
by the wind. But, he asserts, expert
ence has shown that the wind never
blows the froStS out of the channels
except yhere there is gently sloping
bank. Frost will not climb a preci
pice, ergo, it will not climb fence.
First locate the frost channels, which
he asserts, is not difficult, then build
your fence dellectors. We shall ex-
pect to find Mr.. Howe laying his the
CRY and remedy before the investigat-
ing body which it is hoped congress
will authorize. Throwing a frost chan.
mel out of its stride may yet be child's
play compared to the roping of a wild
brOnchO.

TUCSON, Ariz., Jan. 13-Pedro

Paso for Mexico City, a peace proposal
from rebel leaders operating in north

The peace proffer is prefaced by an

Intervention is probable unless Mexican
hOstilities cease at once. 1t is signed
by Generals SalaZar, Rojas, Caraveo
and TOrtillO. The proposal was delv

Of General Salazar who also accom-

Execute Opium Smoker

SHANGHAI, Jan. iL-Death as a
punishment for opium smoking was
meted out to woman of This city
who persisted in the use Of the drug
despite the stringent manifesto issue
by the government on Christmas day
prohibiting the people from indulging
in the habit.
BY order Of the governor Of the
province the woman was taken to a
public place and executed by shoot
ing in the presence of a large crowd
of spectators.
The manifesto expressed the desire
for the suppression of the evil in Or
der to save the people from a life of
degradation, but at the same time
voiced the fear that although the gov
ernment was in earnest, the people
would try to evade the law.
The probable collapse of the opium
trade was fOreshadowed some time ago
when it was found that Indian opium
to the value of S6O,OOO,OOO was
stacked in thousands of chests in
Shanghai and Hongkong warehouses
without finding buyers After the man
ifesto was issued by the government
it was virtually impossible to buy opium
in the coast provinces or the Yangtsc
provinces and it was known that the
authorities had been ordered from Pc
king to enforce the prOhibitOry laws.
