During the past few vears there. has been much adulteration of paris green, and because of this there has been some failure to obtain good results. There are three distinct classes of adulterated paris green—bogus. adulterated and low grade. There is danger from arsenical adulterations, and they are Injurious to foliage. It has been demonstratel that dry paris green can be placed upon a leaf in any quantity, and so long as the leaf remains dry no evil results will follow. A number of States have laws requiring that parls green contaln 50 per cent of arsenious oxide. " A number of compounds have been sug- gested for paric green and more or less thor- oughly tried, and results obtained in some in- stances highly satisfactory. The cheapest ar- senical home-made compounds are arsenate of arsenic and lime and arsenic, soda and r Colby illustrated the mixing of the varlous remedies. evening session Leonard Coates per on “Fruit Tree zer of Santa Rosa ne Stocks,” and Ed- of Monterey treated of A dispatch was received at yesterday's convention from the Mayor of Santa Cruz, tendering the hospitality of that city for | the convention in 1900.

They failed wofully, their efforts having just the opposite effect to that for which they hoped, as the league adopted resolutions against the propositions advanced by the touts of the man from Mexico. The necessity for a new street law was urged at the morning session and a committee was appointed to suggest amendments to the statutes. Chair- man Hutchinson of that committee was advised early that Paris Kilburn of the Board of State Harbor Commissioners would be very much pleased if the league wou adopt resolutions requesting the Governor to call an extra session for the purpose of amending the existing street laws. The same source also adv d the chairman of the committee that such a course would be the most speedy way of remedying the existing defects. When the league met last evening Mr. Hutchinson, who is evidently not easily fooled, | spoke against such action on the part of the organization and Introduced the following resolution, which was adopted unanimously: Resolved, That it s least one year to fully laws of this State the opinion of this league that it will require at investigate the condition of the street improvement and draft thoroughly considered substitutes for or amend- ment of the same; and for that reason this league hereby requests his Honor, Governor ge, to omit from the call for a special session of the Legisla- ture, should such sion be calle I reference to that subject. “Resolved, That the secretary be and he is hereby Instructed to trans- mit forthwith to Governor Gage a copy of these resolutions.” 04040404040 000000000000000000000000000. @+040404040404040404040404040404040 404040404 000000. formed by Rev.
