10 OUT ON THE RANCHES Pomona Times: A sate rule is not to nee a young boar for breeding until be ie 7 or 8 months old, at least, and not then unless be has been well fed, re sulting in a good growth and develop ment ; and also not to permit a sow to be served at least until she is 6 months old. In a majority of cases it will be well to wait until she is Bor 0. Under what may be considered average condi tions, a sow should not farrow ber first litter until she is 1 year old. A good plan is to breed a good sow from an early spring litter, so that she will far row ber pigs in April. This will usually make her a little over 1 year old and she will be all the better for it. It is bast to keep tbe boar away from tbe sows nntil time to breed. All things considered, one of tbe best plans of man aging the boar is to use a small lot or yard where he can be kept to himsel and the sows turned in to him as desirec to breed. One advantage in this is that bis feeding and management can be euch as is beet calculated to keep him in a bealthy, rigorous condition and will in sure better pige; then be can more read ily be kept under control than if allowed to rnn about. Tbe brood sow should have plenty o sound, nutritious food in order to secure a bealthy growth and development witb out inducing surplus fat. After the sow Is bred it is very important that she be kept thrifty, and her feed is an import ant item in securing this condition. In the selection of the breeding ani mals, they should always be large anc well developed. Tbe boar should be tbe shorter, stockier animal of the two. Tbe lation of the sow should be of a nature that will avoid constipation, anc especially so a abort season before far rowing, in order to lessen tbe feverish condition at this time. Tbe brood sow needs good treatment, and will pay well for the extra trouble required to keep her vigorous and thrifty, aa upon her condition largely depends the vigor and thrift of the pigs. A good sow well fed and properly cared for will bring two good litters of pigs in a year, and will pay fully ac good a per cent on the investment ac any other animal on the farm. But tbe amount o profit will depend, first, upon her breed, and then upon her feed and manage ment. Too early breeding injures her ac a breeding animal in the future, ac well ac lowers the quality of her pige, so that if she is selected for a breeder let her be reasonably well matured, vigorous and thrifty before she farrows her first litter. Some Points in Planting Orchards. Oceanside Blade: Tbe season of or chard planting ia near at hand and some have already plowed ground in prepara tion for planting it to trees. Tbe beet horticulturists advocate preparing the ground well by deep plowing and thor ough pulverization in the fall. They Bay if soil is plowed deep and harrowed thoroughly, then plowed crosswise and harrowed again two or three times, it will be all the better. Even a greater amount of work than this will be found to pay tbe orcbardist much better than to discuss the tariff and silver queetions with his neighbor from opposite sides of a line fence. Another important matter, that has been often overlooked, is care in select ing trees for planting. Many persons, who knew nothing about fruit growing but were attracted to it by tbe profits of the business, thought if fruit trees of any kind were stuck into the ground, soil and climate would do the rest. Many of tbem have lived to learn by experience that in planting an orchard the greatest care should be taken in the selection of the - trees. A man should study the varieties 1 and select the most profitable and mar ketable, and above all select trees true to name. No man, be he young or old, can afford to waste five years of his life in i findicg out that his fruit is not true to name and is inferior to what he paid for. 'Says one prominent fruitgrower: "If possible, make tests of tbe average root system of the trees you propose to buy, and learn if they are built on tha right foundation. Do not plant trees with a defective or scanty root system. Even if bought and paid for, it is better to re plant in nursery or destroy, rather than plant in an orchard. Life is ti ) short, and good stock too cheap, to justify the nursing of feeble trees. It is always a case of losing $5 while struggling to save 15 cents.'' State Fruit Exchange. San Francisco, Dec. 29. —The frnit ■rowers of California met this morning at Pioneer hall to consider the question of establishing a state fruit exchange for tbe marketing of California fruits, raisins, nuts, etc., and ratifying and endorsing, should the convention so de cide, the steps already taken to that end by this society. The meeting was called to order by 8. Le Long. The fol lowing officers were chosen: John Markley, president: A. T. Match, vice president; B. LeLong, secretary ; E. W". Maslin, assistant secretary. The finance committee ia composed of Robert Will iarcs, Sacramento; A.Gordon, Fresno; A. L. Bancroft, Contra Costa. Com mittee on resolutions —H. P. Stateler, Sutter; W. M. Motherell, Kings; M. W. Gladden, Sonotcn; P. W. Butler, Placer, and E. A. Wheeler. President Markley made the opening addresß, favoring the exchange scheme and showing its feaeiDility. The morn ing was taken up with listening to re ports. At the afternoon Beßsion the senti ment was unanimous for the organiza tion of a state fruit exchange. Resolu tions were sdopted reorganizing the California fruit exchange as the author ized representative of the fruit growers of California, and stating the object of tbe exchange to be the opening of new markets and the extension of old ones, obtaining cheaper and better transpor tation, and eerving as financial agent for procuring advances on dried fruit in store in California. Tbe resolutions recommend that all co-operative asso ciations of fruit growers and individual producers associate themselves witb the exchange under contract to pay one-bali cv' 1 per cent of their sale of dried frnit and other products for tbe services ren dered by tbe exchange. Tbe following fruit growers were se lected as directors of the California frait exchange to serve for tbe next year: F. H. Wood, Santa Blara; K. A. Wheeler, Santa Clara; B. F. Walton, Sutter; C. T. Thomas, Los Angeles; John Mark lev, Sonoma; B. F. Allen, Butte; E. W. Maslin, Placer; C. H. Norris, Fresno; D. T. Fowler, Fresno; W. J. Dobbins. Solano; Philo Hersey, Santa Clara. At tbe night session resolutions were adopted protesting to congress against tbe reduction of tbe tariff on foreign fruits tbat compete with California pro duction. Olives. The olive industry ought to be n sue - cess in Southern California. But the man who pays $400 an acre for olive land will sooner or later learn that it was an instance in which "a fool and his money parted." Bearing olive orchards oan be bought for $100 an acre in Italy, so we are told. Our climate ia a thing oi al most incomparable value, but be who buys land should remember that, while it may help bim to enjoy life, be cannot live on climate. In bnying land—or land and water—in California, the stranger shonld closely investigate and fully and accurately determine for himself what he can do witb it; what will be tbe reward of an intelligent, energetic cultivation of it, not for one year but for a period of years—the only method by wbich a fair, honest average can be arrived at. Land and water ought to be had for from $(30 at $100 per acre, generally. Of course locality, soil, frost conditions, contiguity to town and other advantages will and should have weight in the premises, but in a general sense the prices quoted will be as high ac circumstances will war rant. These views will not suit those who are waiting, watching and working for another boom, but we believe we ventured very near tbe brink where conservatism falls, in putting them forth. Time to Graft. Pomona Timee : There are many de ciduous orcharde and parts of orchards in and around Pomona containing fine, bealthy trees tbat fail to produce paying crops, for the reason that the varieties are not such aa are best suited to this valley. In many cases such have been grubbed out and young trees planted. In most cases much quicker returns won id be secured by topgrafting with scions of a well-known prolific tree. Barren almond trees, for instance, are readily converted into bearing prone trees. Grafting can be done in this climate almost any time from December to April. It is not necessary as in the east to wait for spring, and all things considered, it is better io do it in winter when work is not crowding. January is the best time to cut tbe scions and bsfore the pruning is done, as one can then select choice cutting. Select well-matured, medium-sized twigs, from tbe lateral branches of bealthy bearing trees. For keeping, spread these in thin layers on the north side of a building or good Bhade, cover well with fine dirt, wut down and keep moist until wanted for use. Is the Fig Profitable? The fig is generally regarded as a failure, financially speaking, but there are those who have had a different ex perience, ac appears by what the Po mona Times Bays. While some think the fig a lailure, sayet the Times, others do not. Messrs P. S. Martin and George Reeves have fig orcbarde on the Chino ranch, near the experiment station. They very successfully dried some this year, and have encouraging offers for tbe next crop. Ber nard & Co. of Loa Angeles tell them they are confident that goood figs will be worth $50 per ton next year, aa they were this. Martin and Reeves say that but few soured, and those mostly on the trays. Mr. A. B. Loud of Eti wanda also has faith in tbe fig as a profitable fruit, though the crop wae very light this year. He ie convinced that at $50 per ton delivered on the cars, the fig, one year with another, will prove profitable. Recent receipts of Califor nia figs in New York made a most favor able impression; in fact, they were pro nounced surerior to the imported fruit. SPRINGER'S FINANCIAL BILL. A Measure for the Reform of the National Currency. Washington, Dec. 29. —Chairman Springer, of the committee on banking ai 1 i u.rency, has completed the prep aration of a currency bill, the essential features of wbicb are as follows : It provides for tbe creation of a cur rency commission, to be composed of tbe secretary of tbe treasury, the treasurer of tbe United States and the comptroller of tbe currency, which shall be charged with the execution of the pro visions of the act. The com mission shall have legal tender notes printed at tbe bureau of engraving, aDd printing, which notes shall be legal tender, public and private, and shall be redeemable in coin. Such notes shall be issued to any solvent bank having a paid tip capital of over $25,000, on de posit of certain bonds required by the act. Tbe bonds may be either United States or those of etate, county, parish or city witti a population of 5000, when the bonds have been at par lor two years and all interest paid up. Circu lating notes are exempted from tbe 10 per cent tax on state bank issues, end bonds are also ex empted from all taxi tion, federal or local. Banks depositing other than national bonds may receive 'JO per cent in notes. The United States assumes all responsibility for the redemption of the notes. Banks must guarantee tbe payment of the bonds deposited, and all the asseta of the banks are liable therefor. On notes issued to the amount of one-half the capital' stock, the bank must pay a tax of 1 per cent per annum; on an addi tional 25 per cent, 2 per cent tax is imposed, and on the remaining 25 per cent a 4 per cent tax will be re quired. Ample provision is made for retiring redundant currency and for ite cancellation. The credit of the United States is pledged to tbe redemption, in coin on demand, of national currency notes, and a reserve fund in coin is pro vided enual to 30 par centuat of the out standing notes.

The Football Controversy. Editors Herald : In Monday's Her ald the Alhambra football team was severely ecored for making an engage ment with tbe Pasadena team. The facts of'the case are, there was no agree- j ment made at any time by the A. A. C. j boys ur play in Pasadena, for reasons fully understood by the Tbroop leather kickers, and it is a gross injustice for the reporter (?) to place our club in such an unfavorable light before the public simply to cover up his mistake in ! announcing a game that wae not dated. ' Alhambra did try to get a game early in tbe week, but the arrangements on witb C'laremont prevented it, and a practice game at Alhambra was broken by tbe Tbroop captain by telephone in j good season not to discommode anyone. | The Alhambra team are nearly all raw ' men, many of them not having seen a game ol football until witbin two weeks, and considering the efforts of the club to assist the sport it would at the least seem proper for the correspondent at Pasadena to print facts instead of ficti tious items calculated to arouse enmity between the two clnbe. Captain A. A. C. Tuam. A QUEER AUCTION. The Annual Sale at the Dead Letter OfiUe In Washington, Washington correspondence of tbe New York Press: The annual sale at tbe dead letter office takes place Mon day. It always attracts a curious as semblage of inquisitive people and sec ond-band dealers. It is always produc tive oi laughable incidents. The articles which are put up for sale are divided into lots, and each lot ie numbered and described in a catalogue. But occasion ally a box or package figures in tbe list, and there is much speculation es to the contents. People have been known to buy second-band desks and find govern ment bonds in them —and a great many of the people who attend the dead letter sale confine their bids to tbe mysterious parcels, whose contents are unknown. Some of these bidders carry away their purchases without examination, but othere open them in the face of tbe crowd, and there is always a loud guf faw when some gray haired man finds that be tias purchased a pair of old cor sets and some badly worn stockings. Everything, from old shoes to scorpions, goes to tbe dead letter office. It happens sometimes tbat things of great value creep into a dead letter sale. The superintendent of tbe dead letter office carelully weeds out tbe money in letters. He finds as much as $50,000 in misdirected letters in a single year. Under the rules of the department every effort is made to find tbe owner of a let ter or parcel. If be cannot be found and tbe property remains unclaimed for two years it is sold for Uncle Sam's benefit. But the owner does not lose hisj interest in it. If be can prove his claim at any time in the future, if it wae in money or any negotiable security, he will get its full value. If it was in merchandise, be will only get what it brought at tbe auc tion sale. Unclaimed money is much the largest source of revenue of the dead letter of fice. The sale of unclaimed property seldom brings in more than $3,000. Tbe sale of last year realized $2,807. There ie a great variety in the articles which will be offered for sale by the auctioneer, beginning Monday. Silk bandkercbiefs predominate, and Catho lic emblems are not far behind them in number. There are more women's ar ticles than men's to be sold. Tbere are gloves and ribbons, hair crimpers, rucb ing, jerseys, corsets (tbe eize of which is carefully set forth in each case), aprons, worsted capes, shawls, mittens, hoods, dress goods samples, scissors, assorted underwear, work boxes, jewel cases, laces, Bewing silk, veils, fans, hairpin cushions, pin cushions, bustles, calico, oasque lining, wire bonnet frames, hat ornaments, zephyr yarn, shoee, stock ings, slippers, purses, thimbles, braid, hat feathers, aigrettes, muffs, stamped patterns and almost everything else in the line of small shopping. Out of tbe 7500 lots which are offered, probably 100 or more include "poems." There are a great many poems to be sold. There is a great deal of stationery, most of it identified ac "cheap." There are curtain rings and revolvers, tobacco pipes, old neckties, shoemakers' knives, dental instruments, harmonicas, drill bits, testaments, electric belts, cartridge shells, typewriter supplies, pocket cook stoves, flags, music, watch springs, violin strings, pillow cases, spy glasses, rat traps, music box cylinders, wigs, bicycle bells, dark lanterns, toys, Grand Army buttons, cutlery, quilts, screw drivers, pressed flowers, coin banks, tuning forks, lead pencils, eyeglasses eyeglass cleaners, telegraph sounders, button tryers,calipers, a detective badge, a priest's collar, carpentere' tools, drummers belts, playing cards, poker dice, dating stamps, parts of harness, metal letters, whistles, pulleye, can openers—-anil indeed so aaany other things tbat they are literally "too numerous to mention," except in a catalogue. Homo few of the articles are exceed ingly personal. For example, there is a door plate with tbe name "Fariar." This is grouped with a coffin plate, on which are the words, "At Rest." If you buy tbe door plate you must buy the coffin plate. There is a cup in scribed, "May, 1890," which is de cidedly oat of date. There ia a finger ring with the name "Orra," there are thimbles with "Maggie" and "Mary" engraved on them; there are hat linings with the initials "O" aad ' O," and there are embroidered initial handker chiefs witbout'number. The Ac*. How fortunate for us all would it have been had we been born a century or two later, or had civilisation began 10 cen turies earlier 1 For the ninteenth cen tury has been, in a large sense, a pro bationary epoch, an era of beginnings, a period of the planting of seeds of which the 20th or a later century will enjoy the fruit. Man haa long been preparing for thia great harvest o! time. For ages past tbe clearing of the ground, tbe plowing and harrowing of the soil, have gone on; and a harrow ing time it baa proved for poor human nature. The planting began later, and haa teached ita height of activity in the present century, this era of great dis coveries, valuable inventions, strife and stress of industrial relations,and general turmoil of social conditions, in all of which we perceive promise of rich fruit far the coming generations.—[Obarlss Morris in January Lippmcott, She Didn't Weep.

Surrounding the property It tbe valley portion ot the Chino Ranch, comprising 1(1,000 acres lying north and cast of Ohino crsek, tubdlvtdod into 10 am- tracts, which have a gradual (lifeline toward the south and southwest, giving ample natural drainage for successful cultivation. In 1891 the Beet .Sugar Company was organized and the refinery built and pot In operetta* at Chino, In a central portion with reference to the property. The resntt obutined from the operation ol the factory for the few years past shows a remarkable degree ot adaptability of the soil to theauccessful cultivation of the Hugar Beet, both in amount of production and In per centage oi saccharine matter, and also in the efficient capacity oi the manufacturing plant. The factory handled during the present aeason of 1893 1000 tons ot beets per day, and have from 600 to 900 tons per day coming in conttnunusly for the entire campaign, covering a period ot nearly fuur monbts. it is proposed now to increase tbe raDacity of the factory by the erec tion of an additional huildiug aud machinery to suit the requirements of increasing produc tion. The returns for ti.o present campaign have been a total.yield oi oyer 15,000,000 pounds of sugar, which have been shipped oat as crude sugar to be refined elsewhere. Under a direct and speolQc contract between Mr. Gird and tbe Cblno Valley Beet Bag** com pany, a corporation which Instituted and operates the Heel Bngar lncustry, they agreed to pur chase from Mr. (jird or his successors ail the beets grown on the ranch for years to come, and at the present date, about November 1, 1893, beiore tbe commencevent of the next season, a Hied price is establish d that the factory will pay for the beets at maturity next season. This lnsnres the planter in tne market for his crop, and with tho price that is fixed, beiore ha takes any risk in the matter or makes the first move towards turning over tbe ground. Possibly there is no other branch of industry where calculations for future results can b* made so readily or so correctly calculated upon, and returns realized in so short a time at in the cultivation of the Sugar Beet under such auspices. While speaking particularly Id regard to the important Industry of beet growing for the manufacture of sugar, estimates of general iruits should not be lost sight of. as a great portion of the land is especially adapted lo Deciduous Fruits and Deciduous Trees. Orange groves planted on portions of the Ranch are comtng (orward, and olivet, figs, aprt. cots, prunes, pomegranates and berries, in fact California fruits of all kinds, teem indigenous to tbe soil, It is alto demonstrated that uorn, barley, wheat, and In fact all the cereals ami vegetables, flourish in this soil and attain a high degree of perfection. The townsite of Chtno, located at a convenient point with reference to all portions of the ranch, ia a flourishing California town, with telegraph, telephone and express offices, schools and churches. Means ot communication and transportation are ample. The Southern Pa Jill a railroad runt ita main line direct Into Chino, aud is four miles distant from Pomona and Onta rio, on the main overland line, and in addition ts tbe proposed extension which is now assured from Pomona, through chino, to South Riverside and Klslnore.
