pounds. In any event the outside dis
tricts are probably considerably lighter
than the Santa Clara district The esti-
mated crop percentages from the va
rious producing districts are as follows:
Chico, 25 per cent; Colusa, so per cent;
Napa, 40 per cent; SonOma, 80 per cent
SOlano, so per cent; Yolo, so per cent
Santa Clara, so per cent; Tulare, 80 per
cent; San BenitO, 50 per cent.
Market: Since our last letter the
prices for both spot and future goods
have risen materially. As much as l-2
cents has been offered for spot goods in
Santa Clara county. During the past six
weeks there has been a good movement
in the old crop at prices ranging from
3 3-4 to l-2 cents. The bulk of the
1915 prunes are now in the hands of the
holders who expect to realize cent
basis or better. The increase in the spot
prune price is mainly due, according to
the New York Journal Of Commerce
"to marked increase in the eonsum
ing demand"
The market for the 1916 crop is in
very good shape from the growers
viewpoint. There is large short inter
est still uncovered, as much as, perhaps
20,0O0,0O0 pounds or 20 per cent of the
entire crop. Sales to date, in California
by growers to packers, have not been in
excess of 1000 tons, and most of these
sales have been on cent basis OF
better AS much as cents has been of
fered in at least one instance although
this was special case. The Bureau
believes that there is no reason why
any grower should sell his 1916 CROP
for less than 5 l-2 cents.

SAFETY I'M FIRE DRILLS

Although no blanks for. reports on
fire drills this year have been sent
out by the state fire marshal, the
schools of the state are being kept
track of by that department and any
failure to fulfill the requirements of
the law that provides for fire drill
every month in all buildings of more
than one story, or buildings of any
kind occupied by schools that have
more than one hundred pupils, will
probably result in serious consequent
ces for those responsible for the fail
ure. Both the teachers and the mem
bers of the school board are liable
under the law for any failure to dc
their duty in this regard.
Sometime during the winter blanks
will be sent out calling for a report
from each school as to whether OF
not monthly fire drills have been held
regularly since the beginning Of the
school year.
Fire drills held at regular hours Of
dismissal or intermission do not meet
the requirements of the law.

CLYDE TILLSON
PUTS HIS AUTOON
SLED-RUNNERS

Clyde Tillson of Belgrade Lakes was
a visitor to .Waterville Monday, which
in itself is not any great Of an item, for
Clyde is a frequent visitor here, par
ticularly in the summer, when he runs
an automobile livery in that thriving
resort, but this time his visit caused
a whole lot of craning of necks and
everyone stopped and looked at him as
he went by. He was driving a Ford,
nothing out Of the ordinary in that;
everybody does it, but it was the way
the Ford was changed that did the
trick. The tires had been taken off
the front wheels and fastened to them
was a pair Of cleverly designed run
ners which Mr.. ,Tillson said he made
Monday morning. They had not been
equipped with steel shoes as yet but
they travelled over the roadway and
through the deep snow in. a way that
looked as though they would be bet
ter than the wheels that they replaced.
The runners had been made by saving
out a couple of pieces OF plank into
the shape of runners with a part that
came up nearly quarter way on the
wheel. Holes had been bored through
the wheel and the runners bolted on
solidly.
Mr.. Tillson made a number Of trips
up and down the street, crossing the
car tracks with ease and the car ham
died in good shape and seemed to 60
along as easy as though all four wheels
were working. The only difference no.

and said that little later they were To
have directors meeting and at that
time would take the matter up and would
arrange for him to get something out OF
it. Mr. Lombard then returned to Maine.
but never heard anything from the Holt
Co. and they never paid any attention to
several letters which he wrote to them
regarding it. Mr.. Lombard figured that
they were million-dollar concern with
their own retained attorneys and that if
he tried to fight them he would have to
go to California, would be compelled to
take his witnesses from here and it woulo
cost him thousands of dollars for every
one it would cost them and the only
thing for him to do was to keep still and
attend to his own business here.
A few years ago the c. l.. Best Co. of
Oakland. Cal, started in to make the
tractors similar to those made by the
Holt Co. AS soon as they had got them
onto the market the Holt Co. sued them
for infringement. and the Best Co. sent a
man on to Washington to look up the
records in the patent office. This man
found that the patents really belonged to
a man by the name of A. o. Lombard,
whose home was in Waterville, Maine,
and so he came here to see Mr.. Lombard.
The latter had just started on trip
through the northern part of the State
but he was called back by telephone and
the whole matter was gone into with this
man. The fellow returned to California
and a little later Mr.. Lombard was made
an offer to go to California and talk busi-
ness with the Best Company. He did so
and as a residt of his visit he made ar
rangements with the c. L. Best Co to
fight the case and they have started the
suit against the Holt Co. Mr. Lombard
and his daughter, Mrs. George E. vose
have just returned from trip to Cali.
