Pruning Apricots.

1t is well known that the apricot pro-
duces its next seasons fruit from the
buds matured the present season, and it
is very important for the financial in
terest OF the fruit grower that he should
carefully note the condition of his trees
Especially when producing full aver
age CROP, and help them, if necessary,
to maintain their usual health and
vigor for the next season. He can do
this by judicious pruning, irrigation and
fertilizing.
In we'll established tree all the prun-
ing that is necessary is to remove broken
branches and shorten the growth of the
present season about one third, cutting
back more or less according to the vigor
OF the tree. This should be done as
the crop is picked.
After the pruning the tree should be
thoroughly irrigated, the brush having
been first gathered into small piles in
the orchard, to be burned when dry and
the ashes used as fertilizer. The Gus
tom of carting off the brush is an ex-
ceedingly wasteful one.
A good superphosphate, containing
only small portion of heterogeneous ma
terial, is the best fertilizer for this period

Profitable Fruit shipments.

Several experimental shipments of
fresh, deciduous fruits have been made
from Los Angeles and San Bernardino
counties this season. Heretofore ship
menus of fresh, deciduous fruits from
the southern part of the state have cut
but small figure in the annual ship
ments of fruit from California, SAYS
the California Fruit Grower, it was
generally believed that fruit grown in
the southern countries would not stand
transportation to distant points. Sew
eral experiments in this line having re-
suited in heavy loss to the shippers, it
was taken for granted that the fruit
would not stand the journey. But this
season, with the improved refrigerator
car facilities and quick dispatch, fruits
from the southern part of the state are
arriving in fine condition and selling at
good prices. On July goth, the Adams
q Lewis Auction company sold in Chicago
for the Haight Fruit Co. of Redlands
carload of fruit as follows: 657 half
crates Moorpark apricots, 81 35@$1. 80
per crate; 80 half crates Royal apricots at
$1.35 each; 164 boxes Early Crawford
peaches at 85c@$1.4 per box. All this
is highly encouraging, and will have the
effect to stimulate fruit growers in the
south to rival the northern countries
in the amount and high quality OF east
ern fruit shipments.

A New Variety of Peach.

J. P. Eckler is fruiting variety of
peach which may prove of great com
mercial value to this valley. The fruit
was first brought to notice by the early
proprietor of the Powell ranch, Mr..
Clark, who induced G. w. Les and
others to plant few trees for his nur-
sery. Mr.. Eckler watched the bearing
trees for several years, and, becoming
convinced OF the value of the peach as q
shipping and canning variety, be ordered
r. II. Wilson, of Duarte, to bud and
propagate from Mr.. Lees bearing trees.
As result the nurserymen soon turned
out about 1900 fine trees of the new va
riety, and Mr.. Eckler has nearly the en-
tire lot in fine growing condition, and
his orchard is bearing its first fruit this
season. The peach is probably the

several sub-varieties of the same. The
fruit is large cling, pure white meat.
skin blush red on one side and white
the balance over, the stone sometimes
bursting and filling the center with gum
which may exude upon the surface.
The value of this variety will soon be
thoroughly tested by Mr.. Eckler, as he
has his entire peach orchard planted
to it.-Pomotropic.

lating nitrogenous fertilizer for spring
application before and after blooming.
If the irrigation is thorough. and
made early in August or the latter part of
July, the trees will not need any more
water before the rainy season,
if this is not delayed later
than the first of December. II the
winter promises to be dry one, they
should have a winter irrigation, for,
while the trees are apparently dormant,
the roots are not, but are getting ready
to push both leaf and blossom in the
spring. If they are kept too dry they
will fail when the proper time comes, re-
sulting in deficiency of the crop.
Care must be exercised in burning the
small piles of brush under the trees
that injury to the branches does not re-
suit from the fire. Cultivator.

ton as it is possible to obtain upon the
stage, One set shows the interior of a
war vessel with the gun and main decks
just as they are on a real man o'-war.
The time OF the action is coincident
with that episode of the war, known as
the Trent affair, and the plot grows out
OF the attempt OF renegade American
serving as lieutenant in the British
navy, to prevent the arrest OF Messrs,
Mason and Slidell, the Confeder-
ate commissioners. The first act oc-
ours in Havana, and Blythe, the rene
gade, who has been instructed by his
superiors to detain the San Jacinto in
port long enough to allow the Trent to
get away with the commissioners, in
suits an American officer hoping thus
to involve him and his crew in an in
traction OF the Cuban laws, thus causing
their arrest and the consequent delay OF
the United States frigate.
The American officer has been fore.
warned, however, and for his country's
sake submits to the aspersion of his
sweetheart's character. He keeps his
temper until the renegade turns sud-
denly and tears down and tramples upon
the American flag, uttering as he does
30 curse upon the damned rag" as
he calls it. The swords of the two men
are out instantly; an old cockswain
bounds in, and, realizing the nature OF
the quarrel and the danger his officer is
in, cuts down the chandelier with one
slash of his cutlass. There is a combat.
and as the lights are turned on, the in
sulter of the fag is seen falling over the
balcony rail.
The Cuban police rush in ,and are de.
lied by the old coxswain, who has called
to his aid his crew of blue Jackets, who
have been waiting close by in cutter
to convey their officer to his ship. The
ensign is c0urt-martialed for the MUIR
der OF the English officer, in what is
proved by the evidence to have been a
personal quarrel. The coxswain unwit-
tingly gives eliminating testimony, and,
discovering his error, says that he killed
the renegade. at this the ensign springs
to his feet, unable to restrain himself
longer, and admits that he, and not the
coxswain, killed the insulter Of his
country's flag. He is sentenced to be
hanged at the yard-arm of his ship, but
is finally pardoned by the president,
through the ingenious efforts of little
girl.
The play is said to possess unusual
dramatic strength, and great deal is
promised in the way of proper and COR
rect stage settings. The situations are
admirably worked up into fitting cli-
makes, and the play is said to be free
from Objectionable sensationalism. The
company is a remarkably evenly bal
anced one.

Julian Mines.

There is no hurrah in mining circles,
says the Julian Sentinel, butall the boys
that are working are taking out gold,
and doing much better than working
for wages. A. P. Fray and Robert John
son commenced about eleven months
ago to open up the Eagle mine in the
face OF almost insurmountable obstacles !;
they have said nothing about their
work, but have accomplished greater re-
suits In that time than any mine in the
camp. They have driven tunnel 800
feet into the mountain. Last week
they had their first crushing of ore, and
those that stood by the men have found
that their confidence was not mis-
placed: The ore yielded $S5 per ton;
and they have considerable on the
dump and plenty in the mine.

A Great Mine.

Mention was made in these columns,
says the San Bernardino Gazette, some
weeks ago, of rich iron mine that had
been discovered in the Dalton range, on
the San Gabriel river, by M. Lehman
and Valentine Riehl.
A few days since Mr.. Lehman and his
partner went out and took samples of
the ore in different parts of the mine
and brought them to this city and had
them assayed, and the following are the
returns: gold, per ton, $47; magnetic
iron, 67 per cent.
Mr.. Riehl went out today to the mine
to prepare it for the inspection of a
couple Of Los Angeles capitalists, who
will leave here on Saturday for the pur-
pose OF examining the mine with view
to purchase. Mr.. Lehman and his
partner have had several fattering Of
fers for the mine and will sell as soon
as they get their price. Mr.. Lehman
brought in several specimens of ore
from the mine, and also some specimens
OF .petrifed wood which can be seen at
