MARKET SUPPLIES IN
PANAMA CANAL ZONE

Although the quantity of food sup
plies purchased by the commissary-
subsistence department has increased
greatly in the past few years, approx
imately ten times as much green food
is imported by the department as is
bought on the isthmus However,
formerly 1t was almost impossible TO
obtain American vegetables, but now
number of Italian and Chinese truck
growers are raising cabbage, okra, let
tuee, string beans, tomatoes, parsley,
radishes, onions, eggplant and spinach
Practically all the buying of vege-
tables on the isthmus is in the city of
Panama, about 10000 pounds being
purchased each month.
Panama is also the exclusive fish
market except for a small quantity of
sea turtle, which is grown and sold at
Colon. In all, about $4,000 pounds of
ket is quick for frstgrade fish, oysters,
Holsters and shrimps. The department
maintains a steady supply of first
grade fish by means of reserve in
storage; auxiliary to this ii makes
most of its purchases from the princi-
pal fish dealer in Panama The de-
partment buys most of its bananas at
Matachin and Monte Lirio, employing
a riverman to visit the natives up the
Chagres valley and stimulate the
trade. About 500 lunches are bought
each week and distributed on Monday.

FEATURES Of CALI
FORNIA LAND Law

At the conclusion of a three bours,
conference Tuesday night between
Secretary Bryan and the l2O members
of the California legislature. the sen.
ate amended the BirdsalI anti-alien
land bill to conform with the measure
which had been originally worked ont
by Francis J. Henev, and later wb;n-
ped into shape by Attorney General
Webb.
The amended bill was then sent to
the printer with crush order.o It's
provisions are as follows:
l That all aliens eligible to citi-
zenship may own real property in
California to the same extent as citi
zens of the United States.
z. That all other aliens NAV own
real property in the manner and to
the extent and for the purposes pre-
scribed by any treaty now existing be-
tween the government of the United
States and the nation or country of
which such alien is a citizen or sub
Ject, and not otherwise.
3. That a corporation of which a ma
Jority of the members are aliens other
than those eligible to citizenship. or
In which majority of the issued
capital stock is owned by such aliens,
may own and hold land in accordance
with the existing treaties between the
government of the United States and
the nation or country of which such
members or stockholders are citizens
or subjects, and not otherwise.
4. Whenever it appears to the
Court in any probate proceedings, the
provisions of this act would prevent
an heir at law from taking real prop
erty, instead of ordering a distribu-
tlon of such property, an order of sale
must be made and the proceeds turn
ed over to the heir in lieu of the real
property.
5. The machinery is provided by
which property held in violation of
the act shall escheat to the state.
D. The measure provides that
nothing in this act shall be constru-
ed as limitation upon the power of
the state to enact laws with respect to
the acquisition, holding or disposal by
aliens of real property in the state. F"
Z. Leasehold and other interest in
real property less than fee are brought
under the provisions of the act.

new ACT With
S[[LS-FLOTO SHOW

Although animal acts of various
kinds have for many years been fea
lures of travelling tented organiza-
tions, still they have up to date never
reached such a state of perfection
that tigers and lions would perform in
the same arena together.
This season the Sells Floto Circus,
which comes here on Saturday, MAY
II. offers this marvellous feat of train
ing as one of the features of their
program.
Margaret and Captain Dutch Re-
cardo are the names of the trainers
who have succeeded in accomplishin ,
this novel departure They appear in
a steel arean, together with six Afri-
can lions and three Malay tigers,
which during the past winter they
have trained to perform as one family.
1t must not be understood that these
animals are by any means in the kin
dergarten stage because they have
passed that long ago. Their training
is absolutely complete, so much so in
deed that they mount pedastals form
ing heroic groups, balance on rolling
balls, see-saw, ride bicycles, jump
through hoops of fire and mount gal
Looping horses.
The remarkable part of the whole
entertainment is, the Recardos enter
the cage carrying no weapon or fire
arm of any kind. The education of
these fierce animals was accomplished
with no other persuader than an ordi-
nary buggy whip, their methods diff
fering from all the other great train
ers who have helped to make the his
tory of the world's best menageries.
Perhaps it is that the Recardos pos
sess some strange and magic power
over dumb animals, but be that as it
may the exhibition given bv them is
one which has never been equalled
and probably never will,
