THE AVERAGE GIRL. == Suchien’s arnica Salve: = —— BUNDAY, FEB. 24, 1889. A Morning Blaze. At about eight o’clock Saturday morning, while Mrs. John Mitten and her daughter were eating breakfast, their house on Jordan street in the Piety Hill part of town caught afire between the ceiling of the dining room andthe roof. With the assistance of neighbors all the furniture except a wardrobe, 9 carpet, a stove and a table were carried from the burning bnilding. The alarm brought the firemen of Nevada and Pennsylvania. companies to the scene very promptly. A good stream of water was obtained and by its use the adjoining houses—that on the east is owned by W. CO. Gray and occupied by Richard Sara’s family, while that onthe west belongs to Mr, Mitten and had Wm. Hoskins’ family as tenants—were saved from’ damage, The building where the blaze started was however entirely consumed. It consisted of a five-room cottage with cloth-lined walls. Mr, Mitten estimates his loss on the house to be $800, and it was insured for $600 in a company represented-locally by H. J. Wright. The furniture was not in“sured. Mr. Mitten, who is employed as watchman at the Nevada City mine, was absent from home when the fire occurred, It is reported that the same house was afire once before recently, A Sudden Death. H. D, Whittum, a native of Maine aged 55 years, and a farmer by ocoupation, died about one o'clock Saturday morning, at his place near Blue Tent, of inflammatory rheumatism. Week before last he served on the jury at the trialof Wm. Denstan for sluicerobbing, and then appeared to be enjoying his usual good healtli. On Monday last he came to town for some medicine, saying he felt ill. e His death was entirely unexpected and a shock to hismany friends. At this writing the time of burial has not been set, asit has not yet been ascertained when his brother who resides in Colorado can reach here. Mr, Whittum settled at Blue Tent in the latter sixties'and engaged in mining. He was fora number of years an owner in the. Sailor Flat hydraulic mine. About fifteen years ago he married a daughter of I. Moody of Blue Tent. Mrs, Whittum and three childen .survive him. For the_ past ten years,or so he has been engaged in ranching. Mr. Whittum was one of the county’s best citizens. “He was industrious, straightforward in his dealings, and a most companionable gen. tleman. He was atthe time of his death postmaster at Blue Tent. Engineer Morgan’s Mishap. ~W.G. Morgan, formerly employed ott the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad, and now engineer of a passenger locomotive on the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad, met with a mishap a few days ago. The train was running twenty miles an hour when he stepped out-on the foot-board to adjust a valve. Ashe got in front of the.driving-wheels, where the board was icy, his foot slipped. As he began to fall he threw himself into a snowbank, fortunately falling so the train cleared him as it sped by, The fireman brought the train to a stop, and he ran after it and got aboard, He thought at first he was not hurt, spraying, in order to keep the Paris4 but afterwards ascertained he sustained severe bruises and an injury to his spine. He is now compelled to remain in bed. A Perplexed Stranger, Said a recent arrival from the far East as he stood Saturday morning gazing at the ruins ofthe Mitten fire: **Well, I got here at last. But these names heat me, At the hotel they said the fire was on Piety Hill. When I got to Suspension bridge I asked a inan to tell just which way to come to find it. He told me it was on. Jordan street, and I could cut across by Tribu-lation Trail and Job’s Lane, or I could climb Jacob’s Ladder and follow either Gethsemane or Zion street, ‘You Nevada City people must be an awtlul religious set.’’ Successful Parties. The Firemen’s parties at Grass Valley and Auburn on Friday night were largely attended and in every way successful; The Nevada City Department was represented at both: places, and the “boys” who went say they were magnificently entertained, At Grass Valley Goyne’s orchestra furnished the music and Mr. tyer of this city prompted, or A New suit. Mrs, Elizabeth Bigelow has commenced suit in the Superior Court against Daniel Dower and others to recover $300 damages which She claims to have suffered by reason of defendants having injured her Jand ’ by ‘mining operations. She also asks for costs of suit.

They prefer the apple as food, but thrive well upon the pear and quince. The moth puts in an appearance during the latter part of April or the first of May, the ime depending upon the season. Warm, early Spring weather brings out this moth two weeks earlier than in ordinary seasons. The California Fruit-Grower gives an interesting description of the pest’s characteristics. The first brood of worms of the season are hatched-from apple by the moth miller, about th time the petals fall. ‘Phe egg hatches in about ten days, and the minute worm proceeds immediately with its work of destruction by eating its way into the fruit direct to the core, where itremains about twenty days at the end of which time it is full grown, and commences-its=éscape from the fruit by eating and burrowing its way out, usually through the side of-the fruit, and, spider fashion, descends. to the ground or some place of refuge. lt generally seeks the trunk or large branches of the tree, and secrets itself beneath some convenient covering and commences to spin itself up in its cocoon, where it remains about ten days. At the end of this time other changes have taken place, and the worm comes-forth a moth, ready to deposit its eggs for the second ‘brood. This time Mrs. Moth is not so particular, and deposits her eggs upon the fruit at uny convenient point, usually where the apple comes in contact with another apple, a branch or limb of the tree. The worm, when hatched in the eye-of the-apple;-feeds—in the regular way, and can be destroyed if poison is placed in the eye of each apple just before or directly after the hatching time. It has bean demonstrated that you can place enough poison in the eye of nearly every apple to destroy this worm by spraying the tree and the young fruit, directly after the petals have fallen, with water in which Paris green (the best poison for the purpose) has beén thoroughly stirred, at the rate of one pound of Paris green to two hundred gallons of water, which is perfectly safe for the first spraying. When used later. on, the spray should be diluted to one pound to about three hundred gallons of water. For what ie known as early apples, one spraying is considered sufficient, unless the trees are very irregulat in putting forth blossoms. For late fall and winter apples, a second spraying is advisable, but should be doné’ before the fruit has grown so large that the eye of the apple is drooping downward, ih place of pointing upwards, as is the case when very young. After the apple has turned-on its stem, there is danger of the poison lodging in the stem-end. The tree should be sprayed from above downwards,.so as to reaeh every b!ossom and the eye of the fruit, The nozzle used should produce an exceedingly fine spray or mist, the finer the better. Great care should be used to see that thesolution is constantly stirred while green suspended, as-it-is inclined to settle very rapidly. A quantity of soap added to the solution will, ina meusure, preventthis, Ifaheavy rain should. occur directly after the spraying, the poison is liable to be washed off to suci; an extent as to lose its effect, and the spraying should be repeated. This method of spraying trees is a practicable remedy, which has been fully tested by hundred of our fruit growers, and with most satisfactory results. In very many instances where the spraying has been properly done, the number of apple worms have been very materially reduced, and in many cases fully 90 per cent. destroyed. There are very many other injurious insects which infest your fruit ‘trees, which can be destroyed by spraying, while the trees can be greatly improved in vigor and foliage by adding to the mixture of Paris green and water about four pounds of flour. of sulphur, two pounds of: blue etone, and ten pounds of soap. You should dissolve the sulphur, blue stoneand soap in ten or fifteen gallons of boiling water, stirring constantly. until thoroughly dissolved; then add the mixture to your original spraying solution. This mixture will not only destroy, if properly applied at the proper time, the Codlin moth worm, but will free the foliage and branches from other noxious insects and diseases. There are other practicable means of fighting the apple worm, one of which is very effectual, the banding system; but we would say in this connection, that experienced fruit. growers maintain that when you have sprayed properly at the proper time, you have done-all that it will pay to do to save your application of other. washes, we will treat in subsequent issues. The last brood of worms spin up in their cocoons, where, if not disturbed, they remain until spring, when Nature’s changes take place, and the moth miller appears to lay its eggs on Points for Owners of Apple, Pear The codlin, moth or apple worm— the most destructive enemy of the apple crop. The banding system andthe fruit forthe spring brood, If all the boxes, packages, etc., used in and about the orvhard are placed in a tight room or building, the windows and other -openings of which are secured by wire ganze, screens or netting, the moths which make their appearance during the latter part of winter and early spring, will be found dead about the windows and openings. In this . way thousands of Codlin moths can your empty packages out’ of doors or under an. open shed, you furnish a hiding place for the fall brood which _. scape in the spring as “moth millers to commence their work of destruction. ee: iO ese The Scuppernong Grape. The Fresno Expositor says: J. R. Nickerson of Nevada county, a pioneer and the first gentleman to set out a vineyard in’ Placer county, is in the city. His objectin visiting Fresno is tointroduce the Scuppernong grape. This grape grows wildin North Carolina, and he says it-has been cultivated in many States with-excellent results. It is very hardy and is proof against phylloxera, mildew and other vine destroying and vine injuring diseases. It requires.no pruning. One hundred and ten vines is all that is necessary to setout an’ acre, The vine not only grows wild in North Carolina but is a eggs laid in the blossom end of tha native of that State and derives its e name from the Scuppernong river. The fruit dosen’t grow inbunches, never more than four berries being found in proximity to each other. The grapes are as large as green gage plums, They make an __ excellent table fruitand produce a fine quality of wine and brandy. The vine is a prodigious bearer, yielding from six to ten tons an acre. There are two varieties of the Scuppernong, the white and the black, both of which are similarin size and flavor. The grapes will yield from 140 to 150 gallons to the ton, C.H, Wiley’s history of North Carolina, written 30 years ago, in speaking of the Scuppernong grape says: ‘The original vine covers five acres. No one knows the age of it, for it was a bearing vine cultivated, or rather arbored, as that is all it requires, by the Indians when the whites first settled the continent.” Experience in this State, however, by no means bear out all that is claimed for the Scuppernony, or as it is known in some places, the Muscadine. It isa hardy vine.and may prove so highly resistant-as-to-be--vatuable fora graft, stock; We should not advise growers to plant largely without pre vious experiment. Old Nevadans at Hollister. City Trustee Tompkins an, wife have returned from a visit tothe lady’s parents at Hollister. While there Mr. Tompkins met several old-time residents of Nevada City who left here in the latter part of the sixties. Thomas Baldwin made a fortune down there «merchandising. He now owns a farm and is making more money conducting that and dealing in wheat. His son Leslie, born here, is Under Sheriffof San Benito county. James Black, who used to be a partner with George M. Hughes in the sash and door factory .still conducted by the latter, is doing well in the furniture business there. Wm. Asher, once constable at Nevada City, isa Justice of the Peace at Hollister.

Following is from Mineralogist Irelan’s report for 1888 : The North Star mine is situated two miles south of Grass Valley, at an altitude of two thousand four hundred feet. The dimensions of the claim are three thousand’ two hundred feet by eight hundred feet. The course of the vein is east and west, with a northerly dip of 26 degrees, and an average width of two feet. The average length of ore shoots is two thousand feet, and the mine is worked by an inclined shaft of one thousand seven hundred feet to a vertical depth of five hundred sand yallons per hour ia raised by a Cornish plunge pump. Sinking costa $20 per foot, and ore, including dead work, is-extracted at an expense of $5 per ton, ‘The work is carried on by the aid of a Risdon Iron Works co.wpressor, National drill, and Giant powder. : The ore is quartz, with free gold, pyrites, and a little galena, and is treated by wet crushing, amalgamation, and concentration. "The mill has thirty stamps, with ten additional being erected, each of which weighs eight hundred and fifty pounds, drops seven inches at the rate of from eighty-five to ninety times per minute, and crushing two tons of ore in twenty-four hours. The shoes and dies are of chrome steel, costing about nine cents per pound, The quantity of water used for the stamps is seven inches for six batteries. The screens are of thirty-mesh brass wire gauze, with a surface of twelve by forty-eight inches clear, and are inclined. The aprons. are silvered, and are four feet wide by six feet long. The sluice plates (silvered) are four feet wide by twelve ‘feet long, and have an inclination of from one and one quarter to one and three quarters inches per foot; the in= side plates are five by forty-eight inches, Challenge feeders are used, one to each battery of five stamps, or six in all. The sulphurets, with an assay value of from $65 to $100 per ton, consisting of iron pyrites. chiefly, and amouating to 34g per cent :of the ore, } are sived by Triumph concentrators and sold.

THE AVERAGE GIRL. == Suchien’s arnica Salve: = —— BUNDAY, FEB. 24, 1889. A Morning Blaze. At about eight o’clock Saturday morning, while Mrs. John Mitten and her daughter were eating breakfast, their house on Jordan street in the Piety Hill part of town caught afire between the ceiling of the dining room andthe roof. With the assistance of neighbors all the furniture except a wardrobe, 9 carpet, a stove and a table were carried from the burning bnilding. The alarm brought the firemen of Nevada and Pennsylvania. companies to the scene very promptly. A good stream of water was obtained and by its use the adjoining houses—that on the east is owned by W. CO. Gray and occupied by Richard Sara’s family, while that onthe west belongs to Mr, Mitten and had Wm. Hoskins’ family as tenants—were saved from’ damage, The building where the blaze started was however entirely consumed. It consisted of a five-room cottage with cloth-lined walls. Mr, Mitten estimates his loss on the house to be $800, and it was insured for $600 in a company represented-locally by H. J. Wright. The furniture was not in“sured. Mr. Mitten, who is employed as watchman at the Nevada City mine, was absent from home when the fire occurred, It is reported that the same house was afire once before recently, A Sudden Death. H. D, Whittum, a native of Maine aged 55 years, and a farmer by ocoupation, died about one o'clock Saturday morning, at his place near Blue Tent, of inflammatory rheumatism. Week before last he served on the jury at the trialof Wm. Denstan for sluicerobbing, and then appeared to be enjoying his usual good healtli. On Monday last he came to town for some medicine, saying he felt ill. e His death was entirely unexpected and a shock to hismany friends. At this writing the time of burial has not been set, asit has not yet been ascertained when his brother who resides in Colorado can reach here. Mr, Whittum settled at Blue Tent in the latter sixties'and engaged in mining. He was fora number of years an owner in the. Sailor Flat hydraulic mine. About fifteen years ago he married a daughter of I. Moody of Blue Tent. Mrs, Whittum and three childen .survive him. For the_ past ten years,or so he has been engaged in ranching. Mr. Whittum was one of the county’s best citizens. “He was industrious, straightforward in his dealings, and a most companionable gen. tleman. He was atthe time of his death postmaster at Blue Tent. Engineer Morgan’s Mishap. ~W.G. Morgan, formerly employed ott the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad, and now engineer of a passenger locomotive on the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad, met with a mishap a few days ago. The train was running twenty miles an hour when he stepped out-on the foot-board to adjust a valve. Ashe got in front of the.driving-wheels, where the board was icy, his foot slipped. As he began to fall he threw himself into a snowbank, fortunately falling so the train cleared him as it sped by, The fireman brought the train to a stop, and he ran after it and got aboard, He thought at first he was not hurt, spraying, in order to keep the Paris4 but afterwards ascertained he sustained severe bruises and an injury to his spine. He is now compelled to remain in bed. A Perplexed Stranger, Said a recent arrival from the far East as he stood Saturday morning gazing at the ruins ofthe Mitten fire: **Well, I got here at last. But these names heat me, At the hotel they said the fire was on Piety Hill. When I got to Suspension bridge I asked a inan to tell just which way to come to find it. He told me it was on. Jordan street, and I could cut across by Tribu-lation Trail and Job’s Lane, or I could climb Jacob’s Ladder and follow either Gethsemane or Zion street, ‘You Nevada City people must be an awtlul religious set.’’ Successful Parties. The Firemen’s parties at Grass Valley and Auburn on Friday night were largely attended and in every way successful; The Nevada City Department was represented at both: places, and the “boys” who went say they were magnificently entertained, At Grass Valley Goyne’s orchestra furnished the music and Mr. tyer of this city prompted, or A New suit. Mrs, Elizabeth Bigelow has commenced suit in the Superior Court against Daniel Dower and others to recover $300 damages which She claims to have suffered by reason of defendants having injured her Jand ’ by ‘mining operations. She also asks for costs of suit.

They prefer the apple as food, but thrive well upon the pear and quince. The moth puts in an appearance during the latter part of April or the first of May, the ime depending upon the season. Warm, early Spring weather brings out this moth two weeks earlier than in ordinary seasons. The California Fruit-Grower gives an interesting description of the pest’s characteristics. The first brood of worms of the season are hatched-from apple by the moth miller, about th time the petals fall. ‘Phe egg hatches in about ten days, and the minute worm proceeds immediately with its work of destruction by eating its way into the fruit direct to the core, where itremains about twenty days at the end of which time it is full grown, and commences-its=éscape from the fruit by eating and burrowing its way out, usually through the side of-the fruit, and, spider fashion, descends. to the ground or some place of refuge. lt generally seeks the trunk or large branches of the tree, and secrets itself beneath some convenient covering and commences to spin itself up in its cocoon, where it remains about ten days. At the end of this time other changes have taken place, and the worm comes-forth a moth, ready to deposit its eggs for the second ‘brood. This time Mrs. Moth is not so particular, and deposits her eggs upon the fruit at uny convenient point, usually where the apple comes in contact with another apple, a branch or limb of the tree. The worm, when hatched in the eye-of the-apple;-feeds—in the regular way, and can be destroyed if poison is placed in the eye of each apple just before or directly after the hatching time. It has bean demonstrated that you can place enough poison in the eye of nearly every apple to destroy this worm by spraying the tree and the young fruit, directly after the petals have fallen, with water in which Paris green (the best poison for the purpose) has beén thoroughly stirred, at the rate of one pound of Paris green to two hundred gallons of water, which is perfectly safe for the first spraying. When used later. on, the spray should be diluted to one pound to about three hundred gallons of water. For what ie known as early apples, one spraying is considered sufficient, unless the trees are very irregulat in putting forth blossoms. For late fall and winter apples, a second spraying is advisable, but should be doné’ before the fruit has grown so large that the eye of the apple is drooping downward, ih place of pointing upwards, as is the case when very young. After the apple has turned-on its stem, there is danger of the poison lodging in the stem-end. The tree should be sprayed from above downwards,.so as to reaeh every b!ossom and the eye of the fruit, The nozzle used should produce an exceedingly fine spray or mist, the finer the better. Great care should be used to see that thesolution is constantly stirred while green suspended, as-it-is inclined to settle very rapidly. A quantity of soap added to the solution will, ina meusure, preventthis, Ifaheavy rain should. occur directly after the spraying, the poison is liable to be washed off to suci; an extent as to lose its effect, and the spraying should be repeated. This method of spraying trees is a practicable remedy, which has been fully tested by hundred of our fruit growers, and with most satisfactory results. In very many instances where the spraying has been properly done, the number of apple worms have been very materially reduced, and in many cases fully 90 per cent. destroyed. There are very many other injurious insects which infest your fruit ‘trees, which can be destroyed by spraying, while the trees can be greatly improved in vigor and foliage by adding to the mixture of Paris green and water about four pounds of flour. of sulphur, two pounds of: blue etone, and ten pounds of soap. You should dissolve the sulphur, blue stoneand soap in ten or fifteen gallons of boiling water, stirring constantly. until thoroughly dissolved; then add the mixture to your original spraying solution. This mixture will not only destroy, if properly applied at the proper time, the Codlin moth worm, but will free the foliage and branches from other noxious insects and diseases. There are other practicable means of fighting the apple worm, one of which is very effectual, the banding system; but we would say in this connection, that experienced fruit. growers maintain that when you have sprayed properly at the proper time, you have done-all that it will pay to do to save your application of other. washes, we will treat in subsequent issues. The last brood of worms spin up in their cocoons, where, if not disturbed, they remain until spring, when Nature’s changes take place, and the moth miller appears to lay its eggs on Points for Owners of Apple, Pear The codlin, moth or apple worm— the most destructive enemy of the apple crop. The banding system andthe fruit forthe spring brood, If all the boxes, packages, etc., used in and about the orvhard are placed in a tight room or building, the windows and other -openings of which are secured by wire ganze, screens or netting, the moths which make their appearance during the latter part of winter and early spring, will be found dead about the windows and openings. In this . way thousands of Codlin moths can your empty packages out’ of doors or under an. open shed, you furnish a hiding place for the fall brood which _. scape in the spring as “moth millers to commence their work of destruction. ee: iO ese The Scuppernong Grape. The Fresno Expositor says: J. R. Nickerson of Nevada county, a pioneer and the first gentleman to set out a vineyard in’ Placer county, is in the city. His objectin visiting Fresno is tointroduce the Scuppernong grape. This grape grows wildin North Carolina, and he says it-has been cultivated in many States with-excellent results. It is very hardy and is proof against phylloxera, mildew and other vine destroying and vine injuring diseases. It requires.no pruning. One hundred and ten vines is all that is necessary to setout an’ acre, The vine not only grows wild in North Carolina but is a eggs laid in the blossom end of tha native of that State and derives its e name from the Scuppernong river. The fruit dosen’t grow inbunches, never more than four berries being found in proximity to each other. The grapes are as large as green gage plums, They make an __ excellent table fruitand produce a fine quality of wine and brandy. The vine is a prodigious bearer, yielding from six to ten tons an acre. There are two varieties of the Scuppernong, the white and the black, both of which are similarin size and flavor. The grapes will yield from 140 to 150 gallons to the ton, C.H, Wiley’s history of North Carolina, written 30 years ago, in speaking of the Scuppernong grape says: ‘The original vine covers five acres. No one knows the age of it, for it was a bearing vine cultivated, or rather arbored, as that is all it requires, by the Indians when the whites first settled the continent.” Experience in this State, however, by no means bear out all that is claimed for the Scuppernony, or as it is known in some places, the Muscadine. It isa hardy vine.and may prove so highly resistant-as-to-be--vatuable fora graft, stock; We should not advise growers to plant largely without pre vious experiment. Old Nevadans at Hollister. City Trustee Tompkins an, wife have returned from a visit tothe lady’s parents at Hollister. While there Mr. Tompkins met several old-time residents of Nevada City who left here in the latter part of the sixties. Thomas Baldwin made a fortune down there «merchandising.

Following is from Mineralogist Irelan’s report for 1888 : The North Star mine is situated two miles south of Grass Valley, at an altitude of two thousand four hundred feet. The dimensions of the claim are three thousand’ two hundred feet by eight hundred feet. The course of the vein is east and west, with a northerly dip of 26 degrees, and an average width of two feet. The average length of ore shoots is two thousand feet, and the mine is worked by an inclined shaft of one thousand seven hundred feet to a vertical depth of five hundred sand yallons per hour ia raised by a Cornish plunge pump. Sinking costa $20 per foot, and ore, including dead work, is-extracted at an expense of $5 per ton, ‘The work is carried on by the aid of a Risdon Iron Works co.wpressor, National drill, and Giant powder. : The ore is quartz, with free gold, pyrites, and a little galena, and is treated by wet crushing, amalgamation, and concentration. "The mill has thirty stamps, with ten additional being erected, each of which weighs eight hundred and fifty pounds, drops seven inches at the rate of from eighty-five to ninety times per minute, and crushing two tons of ore in twenty-four hours. The shoes and dies are of chrome steel, costing about nine cents per pound, The quantity of water used for the stamps is seven inches for six batteries. The screens are of thirty-mesh brass wire gauze, with a surface of twelve by forty-eight inches clear, and are inclined. The aprons. are silvered, and are four feet wide by six feet long. The sluice plates (silvered) are four feet wide by twelve ‘feet long, and have an inclination of from one and one quarter to one and three quarters inches per foot; the in= side plates are five by forty-eight inches, Challenge feeders are used, one to each battery of five stamps, or six in all.
