Should their impressions of the Indiana Ranch district be favorable ‘and the prospects are found as represented . the gentlemen probably will make further. investments in developing mines. At the same time they say there ‘is plenty of idle money in the East ready: for investment in mining ventures, if the recommendations are quite satisfactory. They went.to Indiana Ranch by private conveyance today, and expect to leave for San Francisco Saturday next on their return to Florida.

The orchardists are greatly exercised over the use of bi-sulphide of carbon as’ a remedy-against the worms in their fruit trees. There have been some statements that the bi-sulphide would
hurt the trees, but this is denied by Prof. OC. W. Childs, ® “successful orchardist, and formerly principal of the State Normal School at San Jose. He says: “I wish that every fruit grower in the State could’ know what a boon we have discovered in the use of the bi-sulphide of carbon.
