How Raisins Are Made.

"Raisin making is a simple pro-
cess" writes correspondent of the
New England Farmer.
"The grapes are picked and spread
on wooden trays which are about two
feet long and fifteen inches wide and
left in the sun seven or eight days,
when they are ready to be gathered
up and put in boxes and bands for
shipment or sold to the packers. The
average price of raisins delivered to
the packers is five cents per pound,
but some of the best growers about
Fresno get much larger price for
fancy varieties. The price Of these
raisin vineyards is about $1,000 per
acre. The vineyards are trimmed in
December and January of each year,
and but little more than stub from
twelve to fifteen inches high is left.
Many of the ripened grapes lie on the
ground, but as there are no rains or
dews in grape gathering time, except
at rare intervals, the grapes never
get grit or mold from the earth. The
soil here is a light, sandy loan,
extremely POROUS, and before the
huge irrigating canal brought water
from the mountains, wells were dug
one hundred feet deep before reach
ing water. Now plenty of water is
obtained at depth of from seven It
twelve feet. The ground is 50 thor
oughly saturated with water that bu
comparatively little is needed fo
irrigation. Our ride of eighteeI
miles took us through many fin,
vineyards and orchards which show
ed the wonderful productive powe
Of this soil and climate. 1t was hare
to believe that palm trees two feet il
diameter and yucaliptis trees thirty
Jeet high had been planted but fiv
years; but the California travelle
must be prepared to believe any
thing"

Apples have enthusiastic advocates.
One of them writing for the Country
Gentleman, says; ut is not claimed
for the apple that it is a complete
food within itself, but on the food
list it possesses a value far above the
nutrients it furnishes. Apples aid
the stomach in the digestion OF
other foods, and, therefore, the best
results are obtained from eating them
after, rather than before, meals. Il
one feels that he has eaten more din
ner than is compatible with his after
comfort, he will find that an apple
will facilitate an early digestion an6
afford greater relief than an alcoholic
drink or drugstore prescription

for riding, as he has an exceptionally
weak back any person might break
it with blow from an ordinary cane.
His strength lies in his great breast
and his feet. He has one great claw,
and very small one, and with a ter
rible precision he can bring down the
large claw with cruel force that will
tear open anything not made of
sheet>iron. &aiul
Savage birds at best, they are dam

The twenty-five birds brought to our
California ranch trusted to their in

California winter, which correspon.

their nests were filled with water and

A Cure for Dlphtheria.

The following remedy is said to be
the best known, at least it is worth
trying, for physicians seem power
less to cope with the disease success
fully, AT the first indication of diph-
iberia in the throat of a child make
the room close then take tin cup
and pour into it quantity of tar
and turpentine, equal parts. Then
hold the cup over a fire so as to fill
the room with fumes. The little
patient, on inhaling the fumes, will
cough up and spit out all the mem
branous matter, and the diphtheris
will pass off. The fumes of the tar
and turpentine loosen the matter in
the throat, and thus afford the RELIEF
that has baffled the skill Of
physicians.
