Our Draught Horses.

Besides what the people of Minnesota
are doing in regard to breeding the trotting
horse, they are gathering within the state a
very large and valuable collection OF
draught horses which, in the near future
will add largely to the taxable personal
property of the state. and to the general
value of the commonwealth. A good deal
of evidence was furnished on this point by
the display made at the state fair last week.
Notwithstanding the fact that many of the
railroads declined to bring to the fair
grounds and return stock for exhibition
upon the reduced terms heretofore allowed,
the display was very large and
individually and collectively very SUI
peror. III two instances that came
under personal knowledge. horses of this
class were kept away. George E. Case d
Co. of st. Peter MIMI, withheld their en-
tries, comprising a number of fine importa-
lions made this year, and so also did a lead
ing importer and breeder of Illinois, the pro-
posed entries of the two numbering seventy
five head. These are not all. Other I'M
pOrters and breeders who had signlhed
their intention Of showing at this fair were
absent for the same cause. NOtwithStand-
ing this, the exhibit of horses of the differ
ent breeds was large, and decidedly credit
able. The largest exhibitors were in the
draft lines. OF course, and of these Leonard
Johnson of East Castle Rock, Dakota
county. this state, and Galbraith Bros.
GAINESVILLE. Wis. made the largest
and best display. The first named
shows Percherons. most of which
were imported this year, and the latter
English Shire and ClydeSdaIes. Either
one of these exhibits was such as to cause
any one that has adequate judgment for an
opinion upon such valuable animals, to re-
joice that there are men in this state who
have taste and inclination enough to go into
the business of breeding and importing this
very valuable class of stock. 1t is precisely
the stock that is wanted. This stock is
large, strong. dociEe, good-natured and
patient. 1t is evidently destined to play
very important part III Minnesota farming
operations.

RAISIN MAKING.
An Industry that is Becoming Prominent
in California.

in California.
That there is future for California as a
raisin- producing country is no longer a
matter of doubt or speculation. The in
dustry has, indeed, passed beyond the ex
perimental point, and is assuming consid-
cradle proportions. Merchants ON this
coast, and also in the East are eyincing q
desire now to handle our home raisin pro-
duct, instead of the foreign article. Dur
ing the last season there was a special
demand for California raisins to take the
place of those usually imported from dis
tricts IN Europe where. during the raisin
season OF 1885, cholera prevailed. Thus
California raisins got into the hands of
persons who might not, otherwise, have
sampled them for years to come. The gen.
eral verdict was that the California article
outranked in quality those from the famed
raisin districts of foreign countries. There
are several counties in the State in which
grape-growers are turning their attention
to the raisin industry and wherever the
experiment has been made, under favora-
BILE conditions, it has been successful,
The soil best adapted for raisin
culture is deep, rich, sandy loan,
with capacity for the retention of moist
ure during the season of grape
makers have found excellent results to fol-
low subsoil irrigation-in the valley sec
ton. But in the decomposed granite-slate
soils of the foothills it will probably be
found that irrigation of any description
Will not be necessary. The foothill soil
seems to be well adapted to n-culture
Some of the largest and finest grapes ever
exhibited at the State Fair were grown
without irrigation in the foothill region
the clusters sometimes reaching weight
of six pounds, and the berries full and
large. Soil that will produce such grapes
without the aid of artificial irrigation,
should certainly be valuable for the choicest
varieties of raisin grapes.
1t is not our intention at this time TO give
history of the growth of the raisin indus
try in California, up to the present
time. That subject has been quite ex-
hausted in articles heretofore published in
these columns. 1t is sufficient for the
present purpose to merely call attention to
the fact that satisfactory progress is being
made in this important branch of indus
try. In very few years the raisin product
of California will cut an important figure
in the list of exports.
From the reports of the Assessors of
the several counties for the year
1885. filed in the Office of the State
Board of Equalization in September last,
we take the following figures relative TO
the raisin crop. As these reports were
compiled in the spring, they could not. Of
course, include the raisins made in 1885.
but in 1884. Otherwise the showing might
have been greater. Following are the
figures:

THE DEAD OF THE YEAR.

The dead of the year, who, in life were
famous, were many. Notable persons died
in greater number in 1885 than for many
preceding year. Schuyler Colfax, once
Nice-President of the United States, was
about the first to go. His death marked
the passage to the shades of another realm
of one of the old guard of liberty. Gen
eral Grants was the most notable death
of the year, and stirred the nation deeper
than any loss since the fateful day when
President Lincoln fell. Ex-Secretary
Frelinghuysen, ex-senator Gwin, B. Gratz
Brown, ex-Secretary Jacob Thompson, ex-
Senator Robert Toombs, and finally Vice
President Hendricks, leader among men,
and one of the prominent figures in the
history of the Democratic party, fell be-
fore the ruthless destroyer. Among phi
lanthropists, the loss was that of Sir

CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA,
In South and Central America the chiefly
notable events of the year have related
first to the Instructions and difficulties
that have met the De Lesseps canal COM
pany; the augmented cost of the scheme
now seriously threatening it: the brief
struggle between the Central American
States; the instruction in the State of
Panama and its quick suppression, and the
| unhappy state of affairs in Peru. where de-
| moralization is the rule, and the effects of
the late disastrous war with Chile are be-
ing now most seriously felt These have
been intensified by internal resistance to
constituted authority. which took on the
form of instruction. The situation really
appears to demand the Intervention of
humane foreign governments to preserve
the nationality of Peru from extinction, and
that people from the geeed of rivals. There
has been no notable political or CONNER
ciai events in Brazil or other South Amer
lean States in 1885 that are deemed of such
world importance as to call for RETROSPECT
