Tho legislature is to bo nked to
mnko appropriation for extensivo
work'in tho poultry line by tho Stnte
Agricultural College, nud a plant will
bo- established at Corrnlin that will
cover fifty ncres. The professor,
however, is nn advocate of a sub
station in thU valley, where lie says
tlm nlimato and tho soil combine for
ierfection in the industry.
Tho professor's idea i that some
of the lands less valuable for agri
cultural purpose! would be just suit
od for raiting poultry. He eayH that
at least twenty-five .ncrvsi would be
required to establish a proper dem
onstration farm, of which sufficient
to produce what crcen food is nec
essary should be agricultural land.
The" purpose of tho farm" would be
tli breed poultry in lino from known
producers or quantity and quality
eggsrand to sell throughout the ktnto
breeders at tho minimum charge.
Bsildings and equipment would be of
the most approved patterns and mod
els, and the establishment would di
rect the poultry industry in the dis

CALIFORNIA GROV
E
That Profesor O'Gura's work in tho

grower of California to sftva his crop
is attested in n letter received from
C. Nichols, of tho Uimersity of Cal

"I wish to thnnk yon for bulletin

Ve saved all but about li per cnt
of tho crop and this 15 per cent lost
was, about all in sections of tho or
chards on high ground where no pro
tection in tho way of Miiudge iots
had been provided. Tho Limoueira
company thought that because these
high sections bod never been injured
befor, that they never would be; but
their reasouing was proved erroneous
this year. At 0 p. in. on Jaunarv G
tho thermometer read 32 degrees Fin.
