FRESNO COUNTY KAIsINs.
Cost of Producing Them Compared With
 Cost in Malaga.

Cost of Producing Them Compared With
 Cost in Malaga.
 From the Madeira Review,
 w. II. Mills, of the Southern Pacific, it is said, has recently made thorough investigation of the cost of producing hrst-class raisns in Malaga and of raisins of the same grade in Fresno, and the result is of a nature that ought to be highly encouraging to the producers of rasins in this county and ot the State generally. A comparison of his figures shows that it costs over S7 per ton less to produce raisins of the highest grade in Fresno than in Malaga. The cost of labor in Malaga is less, but Fresno has the advantage in that the vines are more productive, no fertilizers needed, less rainfall in the drying season, and better methods in handling the crop and get ting it ready for market. He thinks the fertilizers will never figure in the cost of producing raisins in the San Joaquin Valley. The best fertilizer for vines is alkai, and as long as there is enough of it to maintain certain portion in the soil, the vines will always continue pro- ductive and healthy as they are now. The fact that raisins can be produced cheaper here than in the best raisin producing district of Europe, is of great importance. It assures us the home market for raisins, and when our home market is sufficient, we can successfully hold our own in that of Europe. Vine growing in California is an industry Of wonderful promise.
