Improvement In Grape Culture.

The HERALD has shown from time to time
the folly OF planting grape vines six feet
apart, when the vine In California has nll
the vigor and absorbing qualities of tree.
A cutting but eighteen months In the
ground, washed out By the freshet Of last
winter In the Nadeau vineyard, and now on
exhibition In the HERALD Office, shows horl-
zontal roots twelve feet In length. In few
years these roots, II unobstructcd by rival
growths, would reach three times that
length. This fact should show that grape
cuttings are planted too closely together,
our old vineyards that are pented six feet
apart are committing homicide. The roots
are inter,wincd and nnthgonistic, aud the
fruit Is small and of moderate yield. A
cutting out of three-fourths Of the
vines would doubtless result In great In
crease In the yield OF grapes and SaNcn large
amount In the cost OF pruning the vines
This fact Is remarkably illustrated at Fresno
where the grape growers are planting their
vines ut generous distances In that settle
ment the vines are planted sxl2 and l0xlt
feet, and the consequence Is Il larger crop
and finer fruit than can be produced ON the
old 6xG vineyards This fact Is remarkably
exemplifcd by the crop Of 1851, now being
gathered. Prof. II. W. bard Informs the
HERALD that the Fresno Vineyard Company
from their vineyard Of 400 acres, now foui
years old, have just gathered twelve tons OF
grapes to the acre. This is more than double
what n 6x6 vineyard will produce In this
county, and shows that the prosperity OF the
vincynrdists In Southern California lies in the
direction of planting vines at greater dis
tanccs apart. This is especially noticeable
in the making of raisins, where the clusters
on vines twelve feet apart are finer aud
larger than those raised on the old style OF
vineyard
With these facts before the people, will
not some. of our vineyardists plant vine
yard l2xl2 or l6x16, and compare the re
suits with the old methods? A vineyard ext
contains 1910 vines to the acre, which are t.
be planted, pruned suckered and gathered
while an acre of vines l6xl6 contains only
40 vines, and will cost but one seventh the
expense of caring for vineyard of the for
mer style, This most important fact should
not be lost sight of by our vineyardists. Who
will be the first to plant u vineyard l6xlt
feet In Los Angelesy After that has proved
to be success II Is likely that some one Will
plant another 20 feet apart and win greater
success. This Is the age of rapid improve
ment In everything, aud the grape growers
should not be behind In the race

Marrying His own Daughter.

singular case of domestic relations is re.
ported In a Schoharie county town, Il few
miles from Schenectady. A son of farmer
eloped eighteen years ago with fifteen
year-old daughter of a neighbor, and they
settled in Esperance, Iowa. A daughter
was born to them. While the child was an
infant the mother eloped with a commercial
traveller taking the girl with her, and they
went to Chicago. When fourteen years old,
the daughter, whose name was the same as
her mothers, ran away, and on the ears met
a man, who, taking a deep interest in her,
obtained for her a situation, The aoquaint-
ance ripened into love, and they were finally
married, taking up residence In schoharic
county. In some way the girls mother
learned of her marriage and decided to visit
her daughter The woman appeared uneX-
pectedly, and with the other Interested per.
sons was astOnished in discovering that her
child had married her own father and the
husband whom the mother had deserted
years ago. The woman promptly withdrew
and has returned to the West. The separa-
tion of the husband and wife, or the father
and daughter, who have one child, will fol

santa Ana Items.

From the Santa Ana Herald of yesterday
the following industrial items are selected
Two carloads of wine and two carloads o
merchandise went out from our depot yes
terday morning.
A carload of walnuts was forwarded from
our depot this morning, The nuts were pur
chased In this valley by Mr.. Geo. Leslie, and
go direct to Chicago.
Four hundred and fifty-nine votes were
cast in the town of Santa Ana, at the late
election. We had confidently calculated on
at least 500, but II number failed to register
and quite n number who were registered
were away on election day.
The following are the exports from the

Some of the farmers of the Swamp have
gathered their corn, others are gathering IT,
but by far the larger number have not com
menced harvesting the crop, which Is not
sufficiently ripe, though men have been al
ready engaged to do the work. Good reports
continue To be received as to the magnitude
of the crop II will not only be large but OF
good quality. The gloomy outlook for crops
OF any kind last winter, In the Swamp
region, caused by overflows and heavy
rains, has been happily dispelled, and the
farmers, 1t is to be hoped, will realize good
figures for their produce

Millions IN our Foothills.

Last spring Messrs Ilammel q Denker
tried the experiment Of planting the loot
hills with fruit trees. They are the proprie'
| tors Of the Rancho RodeO de las Agnas, west
| OF this city, which extends from the plain
up To the Cahucnga mountains. ON the
foothills, formerly covered with brush, the
| proprietors last year cleared and plowed
the land aud late Ia the season, In the
month Of May, planted abont 1000 fruit trees
consisting Of peaches pears, aprieots, ap'
| pies, plums aud other decidnous fruits.
| These trees were the remnants Of the sea
| sons business of n nursery, and the trees
were not noticeable for their health or
| ylgor, but Messrs. Hammel 4 Denker plant
| ed them Ms an experiment and left them to
| the care OF the soil aud the climate. The
| result has been no disappointment. The
| trees on these heretofore dry aud untitled
fields have grown remarkably well and
have exceeded all expectation. Their
growth has been 80 Opulent that they have
been trimmed In once or twice and are still
showing II vigorous growth
This experiment Is Of vast importance to
Southern California. II these high, dry hills
600 feet above tho sea, will produce fine fruit
without irrigation the value of the high
brushlnnd Is established and made proml'
nent factor in the business of the city: When
this experiment was started the HERALD
called attention to the fact and stated that II
was an experiment that might be OF vast
value 10 this section Of the StatC The result
has been all that could have been expected.
The trees have grown lnxuriantly, more
than could have been expected, ana SHOW
that our high foothills are valuable for fruit
growing without the labor and expense OF
Irrigation. All that seems TO he necessary Is
a thorough cultivation of the soil In the
early winter and narrowing Of the lana III
summer to prevent the growth OF weeds. All
blowing IN summer Is to he abandoned. The
soil should be opened In the early winter by
the plow to receive the rains, and after that
only the surface is to be kept mellow as
mulch for the rich subsoil beneath.
The trees planted by Messrs. ilammel Il
Denker were really the culllngs Of the nur.
sery Of Messrs. l.. l.. Bequette CO., nnd
planted purely as nn experiment to see
what could be done on our dry loot hills
The result has been surprise and delight
to those Interested In the undertaking, aud
shows the Inherent capabilities OF our here
toforc unoccupied high. dry mcsas. This
will be new incentive to the owners OF
Crcsccnta Canada and other high locations
to plow and plant In the winter season, when
Apollus will water enough to give glorious

and the emulation between them has risen

election recently held, when Santa Ana
polled dj9 votes and Pomona 1l5, so the
goodly town of Saint Ann gets away with
the claim of having the largest number Of
voters. Now Pomona will declare that that
town has hundreds of voters who had not
been residents for a year and therefore
could not vote. Santa Ana will claim the
