There are about fifty teams employed
hauling hay and grain into Tehachepi
daily. The wheat crop is a bountiful
one this year, and the high market
price makes the sellers rejoice. Wheat
is held steady at $3.50 per hundred

Out at his home ranch Henry Miller
has about 40, 900 sacks of grain-wheat
and barley-stacked up in two immense

as big as the court house. He has sold
his wheat crop this season for 81 80 a

are hauling it in as rapidly as they

Saturday evening we had the pleasure
of meeting Gates Fowler, OF Phoenix Ar

box OF oranges and lemons grown at
Phoenix, which are nearly ripe, as they
are quite yellow. The season there is at
least six weeks earlier than here. These
oranges are from trees purchased two
years ago last March in Riverside. Mr..

planted eighteen months ago. has just
picked from them a crop that is nothing
less than remarkable. The grapes from
a number of single vines we're weighed
and we're found to weigh from fifty-four
to fifty-nine pounds each. The vines
have made prodigious growth
in eighteen months, and it is hard to
say what their bearing capacity will
be in the course OF a few years. The
grapes are smaller than the Muscats
and larger than the Sultanas, and differ
from the latter in flavor ana in being
absolutely seedless. The skin of the
raisins made from them is very tender
and their flavor is much more delicate
than that Of the Muscat. Those who
have seen the growth and capacity of
the young vines are enthusiastic over
the profits possible to secure in growing
them. In RESP ect to early bearing and
quality Of the raisin, it is decidedly SUI
perior to the Sultana, while possessing
the other qualities which most COM
mend that variety.
TO HASTEN THE RIPENING OF RAIsIN
GRAPES.
A Fowler correspondent of the Fresno
Expositor has this to say of plan for
Fastening the ripening of raisin grapes,
which seems to possess merit enough for
a trial:
Various means have been thought OF
to hasten the ripening of the second
crop of grapes, so as to be able to save
it before the rainy season set in, but
none have met with so much favor as
the one recently practiced by our large
vineyardist, B. E. Hutchinson. The
plan is to gather the ends of the vines
that lay on the ground, and bring them
to the center over the stump and tie
with stout string. This leaves the
punches exposed to the SUMS rays,
which at this season are not very warm,
and in comparatively short time the
grapes are sufficiently ripe to pick. This
also removes the punches of grapes from
the ground and prevents them from de-
caying. One man can tie up from one
and half to three acres per day. The
expense of tying is more than repaid by
saving those that would decay, to say
nothing OF the time gained in ripening,
which is very valuable at this season of
| the year.

RAIslN STATEMENTS.

On Saturday evening, after the Ex-
positor had gone to press, there was
train made up in the Southern Pacific
yards that bore choice cargo of our
raisins to the markets of the south and
east. The train consisted of seventeen
"a foot cars, all of which were hand
somely decorated without to show the
passing throngs what Fresno produces
in such great abundance. The greater
portion of the trainload was consigned
by the Griffin Sicily company to its
eastern customers, and WAS only an
illustration of what the enterprising
firm is doing every day. The contents
oof their cars were the choicest products
OF our vines, and the manner in which
they select their raisins and prepare
them for the market has attracted the
attention and patronage of eastern deal
ers who want the best the market af-
fords. They will have it, too, when the
Sunset special arrives.-[Fresno Elk
