Governor Signs Bills With Odd Courtroom Notes
A fragmented 19th century style notice lists acts signed by the governor on Thursday including penalties for driving while intoxicated and misdemeanors, plus a misfit ad for Ballard’s Snow Liniment promising relief for sore throats and contracted muscles. The oddly garbled text references San Quentin and Poison prisons and a Treasury matter, with a final line advertising a pain remedy and various prices.

Agricultural notes on Tulare County crops and plantings
A Tulare County report notes large eucalyptus plantings in the southern yard with several million trees received by planters. Fresno city farm land is set to become productive, with Varley hay selling for 3500 dollars last season. About 200 acres on a farm are being devoted to alfalfa and over 200 acres to tomatoes in Healdsburg this season. The California Fry Cannery Association foresees good returns at seven dollars per ton if growers supply their own boxes. Tomatoes were shipped to Santa Rosa and W Dougherty Gul near Lodi last week, as Dougherty forecasts a big crop of grass related to sandy peat lands, suggesting many local farmers may become vegetable growers.
