was no apparent realization nl the
awful calamity. Twn awful days anil

At the Ferry Station there wns utter

suffering, Hundreds have been injured, either burned, crushed or struck
by falling pieces from the buildings.
The number nf dead is not known but
it is estimated that at least 500 met
llieir death in the horror.
Reports from tlie interior are most
alarming, Santa Rosa, one of the
prettiest cities of the State, is a total
wrick. There are thousands of homeless men, women, and children huddled together. The loss of life is nut
estimated. It will probably reach
the thousands, untune business building is lelt intact ami whnt was not
destroyed by the earthquake has been

Cbiel Sullivan, who served in tlie Fire
Department Ior over u quarter nl a
century, was killed in his engine-
house adjoining the California Hotel.
Another earthquake occurred in
San Francisco at 7.45 p.m. All day
long explosions have shaken the city
and added tu the terror of the inhabitants. Following Hie lirst shock there
was another, lasting live minutes, but
not nearly so severe. Three hours
later there was another slight quake,
The city is under martial law and
all the down-town streets are patrolled
by cavalry and infantry. Details of
troops are alsn guarding tlie banks.

The Long Wharf was one of the most
important shipping points about the
Bay, and freight traffic will be interrupted considerably.
The lire swept down the streets so
rapidly it was practically impossible
to save anything in its way. It
reached the Grand Opera House on
Mission Street and in a moment bad
burned through the roof. From the
opera house the lire leaped from building to building, quickly levelling
them. The " Call" editorial and
mechanical departments were destroyed in a few minutes, und the
flames leaped ncross to the Spreckels
building, whioh, with its lofty dome,
is the most notable edifice in San
Francisco. Thousands of people
watched the hungry tongues licking
Hie stone walls. At first no impres-
[sion was made, but suddenly there
; was a crackling of glnss and an
entrance was effected. The interior
furnishings of the fourth liuur were
j the first to go. Tliis was followed by
a spectacular illumination, The
ground windows of the dome showed
like so many moons; they burst and
gave vent to long, waving streamers
u( flame. The great structure which
had withstood the lorces of the earth-
qi uko, appeared doomed to fall a prey
to lire. After a while, however, the
light grew less intense, and the flames,
finding nothing more tu consume,
gradually went out, leaving the building standing.

with the fallen buildings. Only one
business building is lelt intact. This
destruction includes all of the county
buildings. The four-story court-house

Nothing is left. Identification is impossible. What was not destroyed by
the earthquake has been swept by fire.
The streets are filled with struggling
people, crying and weeping and calling

is up tu tlio cily In lake up
tlie question and provide for a decent

tlio community and is barely good
enough to house swine let alone

and we hope the council will make

Tin- Hou«e did not break up for the

was a lucky thing perhaps that vacation intervened just when it did, that

and while both sid'-s. held up hands in
holy horror at the terrible extent to
which this commercial crime was
rampant, it appearedfrom the statement ol Mr, Gilbert Garong, "l Charlotte, N. B,, the widely known candy

E. H. Smilli, uf Wont-worth, had a
griuvpuce with a big "G," which he
ventiliilcd at length in Hie House.
It appeals be hud shipped sume apples
tn England Incorrectly marked, a
complaint had been registered by the
buyer in Birmingham, F.ng., and as a
warning apparently to tho trade, the
letter was published in oue nl the
departmental bulletins. Tliis was
resented by Mr. Smith who thought
he had been singled out above all
ethers because he was a political opponent ul the Minister uf Agriculture,
but Sir Wilfrid Luiii'ier guud naturedly
pointed nut that as one nf the ninner-
his laiiiilies ul Smiths, ho was nut
likely to be identified by the agent in
England, while .Mr. Fisher demonstrated that the honorable gentleman
was wrong in supposing that his was
a Inno case, several others were quoted
off-hand and as he stated no doubt
the reoord wnuld show more still.
STOPPING GRAFT.
The wisdom of the legislation proposed by tlie Minister ol Justice,
which looks to the preventing of
members uf parliament, who arc also
members ol the legal profession, Irom
acting professionally for those who
may have business with tlie House or
any of the departments, was well exemplified in Hie course of a debate
precipitated by Mr. Foster, in which
he charged that a certain concession
in the Yukon had been improperly
revived, at the instance of the senior
member for Ottawa, Hon. N. A. Bel-
court, acting for tlie concessioners,
and that Mr, Beloourt's firm hud
received, in acknowledgment ol their
services, a large blnck of stock in the
company working the concession.
This looked bad, hut Mr. Belcourt's
explanation Was quite reasonable and
disclosed no action on his part in anyway incompatible witii his duty either
as a member of parliamentor a lawyer,
Still the discussion showed how easily
tho best intentions and tho most upright actions might be misconstrued
and it was made abundantly evident
that it would lie much better for
everybody, il members ol parliament,
to let legal business alone that in-
volved dealings with tlie Government
or the departments.
ENPOROINO   PAIR   WAGES.
All enquiry as to the action ul the
Department ol Labor with reference
to tho plasterers in Winnipeg, elicited
some interesting information one
afternoon, It appears a complaint
reached the department that snine
men engaged on a Government contract were not getting llie wages Eet
forth in the lair wage clause of the
oontract. The contractors were
warned to keep to tbo terms of their
contract and within a week iron- the
date of the complaint they had paid
uothe shortage. Cases constantly arise
where this department is doing excellent wnrk of this kind. Tin- crcatinn
of this branch of the service has been
justified many times over.

SPRAYING
FRUIT TREES
Methods of Treatment to Prevent Disease and Loss.
Below will be found information
regarding the spraying of fruit and
shade trees for the prevention of
fungus and insect diseases.
The greatest success will come in
preventing rather than in attempting to cure. Sometimes spraying
does not seem to be necessary, but
the time has oome when tbe mun
who does spray, legardleHs of appearances, will not suffer tho losses
of his less careful neighbor.
Be ready to spray this year. It ie
good insurance and will pay good
returns on short time.
Begin to spray the orchard early
More the buds swell in the
spring, and repeat the operation every two weeks for at least
four times and the result will be a
saving of from 86 to 95 per cent on
the crop.
If spraying solutions are correctly made and applied there need
never be any danger of poisoning
the fruit for food. Fruit to be
placed on the market should be
sprayed the last time with a solution that will not discolor it.
Bordeau mixture will destroy
inngus diseases and paris green
will kill insects. These two sprays
may be easily combined, making a
solution called paris green bordeaux, which when sprayed upon
the trees, will have the same result
as paris green and bordeaux mixture when sprayed on separately,
Look over the following groups
of trees to see what to do, and
when to do it for that particular
group.
APr-LE ORCHARD.
1 Spray with copper sulphate
just before buds start in the spring,
lor bitter rot, black rot and scab.
2 Spray unfolding leaves with
paris green-bordeaux lor bud moth
and apple scab.
3 Spray as soon as the blossoms
lall with paris green-bordeaux for
codling moth, curculio, canker
worm, caterpillars, scab and sooty
blotch.
4 Keep the foliage well covered
with paris green-bordeaux until
fruit is nearly grown, for the succeeding broods of insects and further fungus troubles,
When the fruit is nearly matured
a spraying with auimoniacal solution of copper carbonate will have
nearly thesame effect as paris green-
bordeaux and will not discolor the
fruit. s
Do not put copper sulphate on
the tree after the foliage is out.
Flat-headed and round-headed
borers burrow in the base of the
trunk. Watch trees and cut out
borers whenever castings appear.
Keep all windfalls picked up and
destroyed or fed out.
CHERRY, PLUM, PEAR, APRICOT   AND
PEACH TREES. .
1 Spray with bordeaux mixture
before the leaves unfold.
2 Spray with diluted bordeaux
mixture just after the blossoms
lall.
3 Spray with diluted bordeaux
mixture two weeks after the second
spraying.
Diluted bordeaux mixture is used
lor the second and third sprayings
because of the tender foliage of
this group of trees. Pears may he,
however, sprayed each time with
bordeaux mixture.
Theso sprayings will be effectual
lor leaf spot, mildews, leaf curl,
scab, brown rot and plum pockets.
In case of pear blight, winter
prune all diseased branches, cutting off several inches below the
diseased area. Several weeks after
blossoming, remove all young dead
twigs in the same way. Use a knife
that is sterilized from time to time
by wiping it with a cloth saturated
with carbolic Acid, The disease
occurs nlso on apple and quince.
Use the same treatment.
SHADE TREES, ORNAMENTAL Slllttllls,
All leaf eating insects can be destroyed by spraying with paris
green the foliage they eat,
Leaf lico and othor sucking insect* should be sprayed with soap
or kerosene emulsion.
Borers in maple and olm oan be poisoned from llie outside, 1
successfully treated in September arsenic compounds in thu form
by injecting carbon bisulphide into paris green nro ihe Btondard pi
the burrows and slopping tlicin up j ons to be used  against  the  1,
tight.
In the following groups ol plants
are given their respective treatment
BLAOKBERRIES,   RASPBERRIES,   DEW"
BERBIES,
1 In fall or winter remove all
canes infested with cane-borers,
orange rust and crown gall and
burn.
2 In spring, before the buds swell
cut off and burn all cancB badly
spotted with disease and spray the
rest with bordeaux mixture, repeating the spraying when the young
shoots are about six inches high,
and again in ten to fourteen days.
Aim to cover thc young shoots with
spray. This treatment is for an-
thraonose, oane blight and leaf spot
disease.
STRAWBERRIES,
Spray with bordeaux mixture
before blossoming and twice after
the fruiting season.
In fall run over badly infested
beds, add a little straw and hum
Frequently renew beds.
These treatments will keep the
crown borer and the leaf spot disease in cheek.
GARDEN VEGETABLES.
Spray the following with paris
green when tlie insects appear.
Cabbage for cabbage worm.
Cucumbers, squash, pumpkins and
melons for the striped  cucumber
bettle.
Tomatoes for the tomiitoo worm.
Spray potatoes with paris green
bordeaux for the Colorado beetle
and the flea beetle when they appear, this spray will also prevent
the potntoe blight.
Potatoe scab is treated by soaking the seed potatoes in formalin (1
pint in 30 gallons of water), for
about two hours. Treated potatoes
should not be placed where they
will get re-infected with scab spores.
Spray any of the vegetables with
6oap or kerosene emulsion for plant
lice and any other of the plant
bugs that suck the juices from the
plants. Care should be taken to
reach every insect on the underside
of the leaves.
FUNGICIDES,
The solutions are designed for
the destruction of the fungus itself,
must, therefore, cover all parts of
the affected plants. The solution
will not penetrate the tissue of the
plant and kill the disease on the
interior, but is effectual, more as a
preventive against the entrance of
the disease fungus into the plant
than a curative when the fungus
has established itself in the tissue
of thc plant.
BORDEAUX MIXTURE.
Copper sulphate, blue vitriol, 4 lbs.
Quicklime, not air-slacked,    4 lbs.
Water 40 gals.
Dissolve the copper sulphate in
hot water or from a coarse bag suspended-in cold water; slack lime
separately. Dilute copper sulphate
solution to about twenty gallons,
into which pour the lime, diluted
to about ten gallons, stirring tbo
mixture. Dilute'further now, to
make forty or fifty gallons, Stock
solutions of the copper sulphate or
lime, rate one pound to one gallon
of water, can be kept indefinitely,
but will not keep when mixed.
After spraying the solution lelt
over should be thrown away.
AMMONIAOAL   SOLUTION   OF   COPPER
CARBONATE.
Copper carbonate 5 ozs.
Ammonia 3 pintB
Water 50 gals.
Use just enough ammonia, if
strong, dilute with several volumes
of wnter, to dissolve the copper carbonate, the dilute to final volume.
COPPER SULPHATE.
Copper sulphate 3 to 4 lbs,
Wator 50 gals.
This strength can be used only
as a winter spray; sometimes a
weaker solution, one pound to 250
gallons of water, is used on the
foliage.
INSECTICIDES,
These solutions arc used to destroy insects and aro not effectual
lor the destruction of fungus diseases, insects that chew the foliage
can hu poisoned through the stomach, while those that pierce the
Bleiiis and leaves of plants must he

THE MINES,
The Stnv says the Elwood Tinwork-
ers Mining Company propose putting
in machinery nt their Shining Beauty
mine on Ice River.
There is very little doing in the niin-
ing line at Cobalt, and the town is
over crowded with idle men.
Encouraging news uf new coppor
discoveries at Aspen Grove come
through n Vanoouver investor who
claims to have ure on one location
recently made which will go 80 per
cent copper.
The total receipts ul ure nt the I). 0.
smelters fur the past week were 35,415
tons and fur the year tu date 48G,44H
tons.
In the Ainswurth district the Ar-
genta Mines, a Boston syndicate, hns
started to develop its property which
ia a low grade copper mine, situated
about two miles on the old wugun road
above the townsite ol Argents.
A, H. Grncoy, manager of the Eva
mine nt Cnmliuriie went to Nelson
this week. He reports good progress
in development work.
Silver is nt 64j, and copper at lSe.
Kootenay miuing stocks hnve dou
bled in value during the past year.
There is a drop in Sullivan shares
due to interest on tlie bonds lor building the smelter being in nrrr-nr.
A preliminary report on the Ross-
hind district by R. W. Brock is being
issued by tlie Geological Survey nnd
will be sent free ol cost to any applicant. The preliminary report, meanwhile, contains a large amount ol
useful Information. It deals with the
origin of the ore deposits, nnd with
the chances of their value in depth,
and it discusses the probabilities ol
other deposits being lound outside the
area now being mined, It relates the
methods now being employed, or propped, and touches lightly on the
question ol costs and profits,
line in America to be double tracked
Irom the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Sir William Van Home is inclined
to treat seriously tho statement that
Hill proposes to build n new line in
Canada, south ol the Canadian Pn
cilic line. " Near the intornatioua*
boundary," he snid, " our system hns
gridironed the country in the grain
belt and if Hill continues west, he will
(strike arid lauds which the Canadian
Pacific bends north to avoid. There
is no pnss through the Rockies not
already taken except those which hnvo
been abandoned by projected systems
on iiecount ul their enormous cost,"
The Canadian Paoillc Oompanj una
decided to await the outoomo of experiments by the New York Control
nnil New York, New Haven & Hurt-
ford Railway Companies boforo taking
steps fur tlie electrification of uny part
uf its system. Once tlie electrifies
tion of steam railways on u largo soalo
has passed beyond the experimental
stage, there is little, doubt the C.P.R,
will be prepared to adopt the system,
They have accumulated a lot of dnta
on the subject, and will be prepared
to net ut the easlicst possible moment.
The lino from Montreal so Quebec will
iu all probability witness tlie lirsl
installation.
