Mr.. James German yesterday brought
to market load of Mission grapes that
were very handsome, and some Of the
bunches were surprisingly large. Henry
Norboe took box OF them at the Snug
saloon, and found that some of the clus-
ters weighed six pounds each. The
Mission in the city yields better this
year than it yields on the high foothills,
where the Blaue Elben and Zinfandel
exceed it in bearing.

As a matter Of encouragement to the
parties engaged in boring for heavy oil,
it may be stated as an important fact
that the bottoms Of vessels, when paint
ed with this heavy oil, never have bar
naeles attached to them. This should
make demand for this oil for Admiral
Banning's shipyard, aud also for the
ship yards of San Francisco and other
ports

contribute to this desirable object.

The San Luis Obispo Mirror is respon-
sible for the statement that Supervisor
Z. w. Steele Of that county raised $500
worth of melons on one-thirteenth of an
acre Of land that was sub-irrigated.
This would be at the rate Of over $4,000
per acre. The story is large enough, to
say the least Let the next story teller
come to the front, and beat the National
City Record, which tells of single
Mission grapevine that bore five tons of
grapes this year. This is great
country.

been left undoney Perhaps the proper
authorities have forgotten to see to this
business.
