Curing Oranges.

We believe it is mistake to pack or
anges directly from the trees without
permitting time or opportunity for at
least something of Gu ring process,
says the Pomona Progress. We have
known oranges shipped from distant
points in the tropics in slow sailing
vessels which arrived in prime condition
only because they were properly cured
before packing. They were gathered
from the trees and taken to shady
place or to well-ventilated room. and
spread in thin layers for two or three
days. By this time the skin will have
become soft and tough, enabling the
fruit to endure long transit with COM
paratively little risk.
Relative to the subject Florida
grower of experience writes:
The least possible handling Of the
orange after it is cut, until it has been
shrunk, is the best. the word sweating
is misleading, and ought to be discarded.
1t is better every way to speak of the
process as curing or shrinking of the
peel in order to render it tough and pill
able. The moment the stem is severed
from the bough the peel begins to dry
and shrink, and in very few days, un-
less it has been bruised, it will prac-
tically have the contents Theoretically
sealed. During this process the orange
ought to be exposed to all the air that
can possibly be brought to it without
letting the sum chime on it. But even
the sunshine on it would be better, if
covered at night from the dew, than to
size and pack the fruit when crammed
almost to bursting with juice and the
peel brittle and upyielding, This, then,
is the object of the 48 hours delay after
picking-simply TO all w little of the
superhuous moisture to escape from the
peel, so that it may be toughened and
box without rupture"

mess or two. Not one person in ten has
ever taeted a California prune not one in
hundred has anything like an adequate
supply. The idea of over-production is
absurd. Ten times the present quantity
could find market. 1t is expected, OF
course, that the consumption will gradu-
ally increase with the production. Prune
orchards may not always yield their
owners 5000 or $500 profit to the acre, as
now, but the profits may go down much
below that and still be much more than
comes from the cultivation of the eta
pies, wheat and corn, which are the
largest sources of wealth in the
United States. Owing to the ma
ture of our soil and the charac-
ter of our climate, we have little rivalry
to fear with the Mediterranean prune,
formerly the only supply for the
world. The foreign prune is not only
deficient in sugar, but, owing to the
necessary uee Of artificial heat, has a
smoky odor and decidedly decayed flavor,
while ours is sweet, fragrant and whole
some, because sunshine does the whole
work. There is no suspicion of pesti-
lences or plaques in the California pro-
duct. The Mediterranean country has
been on the line of march of all
the great epidemics for thou
sand years. Every package of fruit
from there seems like a Pandora's
box, full of possible evils. These facts
indicate great and permanent trade in
the prune here. Undoubtedly new va
rieties will appear that will be superior
to that on which our trade was built up.
Even now we have five or six for which
especial merits are claimed. Economy
in processes will also become an inn
portant factor in the future.-[A Prune

A Big Field for Pruues.

Eight years of experience of almost

Late Peaches.

On Monday last Mr.. Hoornbeck, who
has purchased and is living on what is
known as the Averill place, in Redlands,
brought to this Office some peaches just
plucked from the tree and scarcely yet
thoroughly ripe. They are freestones,
round, yellow feshed, with medium red
about the pit, which is small and flattened
slightly on both sides on the stem end.
The peach is of good flavor, but not over
juicy. He has two trees on his place
that were there when he moved in. The
variety is unknown to him and no one
yet has been able to place it. Several
nurserymen have budded from these
trees, but we do not know what name
they propose to sell under.
The peach is only valuable for being
the latest of the season, ripening from
the Goth of November to the 10th of De-
cember, thus lengthening our peach
season to almost six month"; Red

Rivera Walnuts

EDITORS HERALD: An item appeared
in this mornings issue of the HERALD
entitled the Whittier Walnut Crop, in
which, with true Quaker modesty, that
delightful village lays claim to the en-
tire walnut crop OF this section.
Now we are perfectly willing to
credit our neighbor with all the
distinctions she is entitled to-
the reform school, the Murphy ditch,
Hervey Lindley, and all. But we must
insist that Rivera is the real center of
the walnut belt. Three special walnut
trains of 20 cars each have already
started from this place direct to Chicago.
The entire shipment will be over so
carloads. The walnut pioneers live all
around US. and Rivera is the head

Fertilizers on Peaches.

The twelfth annual report of the ex-
pertinent station of New Jersey gives
the results of y number OF fertilizers on
peach trees, which will be interesting
to cultivators of fruit generally. The
trees were Crawford's Late; they were
set seven years ago; the orchard was
divided into twelve plots, one-tenth OF
an acre each; and the experiments were
performed by S. G. Dayton of Somerset
county. The orchard was visited by
the chemist of the station. The results
OF application of the fertilizers were in
teresting. Nitrate of soda, at the rate
OF $50 pounds to the acre, did not in
creaee the yield at all; superphosphate
added about 80 per cent with $50
pounds applied; muriate of potash with
$50 pounds doubled the yield. When
these three, namely, superphosphate.
muriate of potash and nitrate of soda
were applied together in the same
quantity the product WAS more than
doubled. But % horse loads of barn
manure exceeded them all, yielding
three times as much as the untreated
plot. Such experiments, OF course, are
liable to vary with soils, seasons and
treatment, and therefore require several
repetltions. A plot which has been
lined every year gave small return,
showing that lime was not needed
on that soil. In another plot
so bushels of lime with only
10 loads of barn manure gave
much smaller crop than the one with
% horse loads of barn manure. Com.
pairing the cost OF the fertilizers with
the gain secured, the best return for
money expended was by the muriate of
potash. This estimate does not include
the increased selling price of the fruit
on account OF its superior quality and
finer appearance.

Best Sizo for Oranges.

We note in some OF our esteemed con-
:emporaries published in one or other OF
the newer 'citrus belts" that the pros
pect OF a good crop of very large oranges
in their localities is spoken of with great
exultation. 1t is not known perhaps to
many people besides experienced Or
ange growers and packers, that large
oranges are not in the highest favor.
In the case of apples, pears. peaches,
prunes, apricots, grapes or olives the
larger they grow the more valuable
the crop. Not so with the orange. A
box containing 200 oranges of any grade
will generally sell for more in any mar
ket than box of the same eize contain
ing but 1l2 or 90. 1t may be said that
the orange is about the only fruit in
California whose large size, other things
being equal, works against it's CONNER
cial value. The cause of this is that
IAN orange is an orange" with many
people, and the retailer finds that the
price he must ask for the large fruit
checks sales, while hotel men and res
taurateurs find that the average guest is
much more likely to eat one large or
ange for dessert than two small ones,
probably costing less. Thus for large
part of the trade the smaller sizes are
most popular, especially the paper ripd
st. Michael. The sizes running 175 200,
or 225 to the box are of late more sought
after than those of large size, requiring
but 96, 112, 1913. 146 or $50 to fill stand
ard box. 1t is best, then, to work for
great numbers and medium sizes in or
ange culture. 1t will be found that the
navel and some other of the best varie-
ties will generally incline to large sizes.
Contrary to the methode for other fruits,
the orange grower must work to keep
the size of his fruit down to the 176 or
200 SIZE if possible.-[Fruit Grower.

G. W. Garcelon Strongly Advocates
the Lisbon Lemon.
The Veteran Lemon Grower Expire sses
HIS Views-Curing Oranges-A Big
Field for Prunes-Fertil-
1zers on Peaches.

Perhaps no lemon grower in Southern
California has become better known
throughout the state than G. w. Garce-
lon of this city, says the Riverside
Press, and his success has
helped greatly to encourage lemon
planting. He uses as p private brand
for his cured lemons thu name RIP Van
Wrinkle, and this has led some to sup
pose that that was q variety grown by
him. He has recently written for pub.
lication an article on the lemon, in
which he strongly recommends the Lis
bon, from which we print the following:
Now that we who have persevered,
behold our lemons quoted at nearly as
high figure as those of Italy and Spain,
and find that the users of lemons often
prefer the home production, we must
credit our success to quality and appear
ance largely, for that is what sells the
fruit; and if the keeping equals, we
have reached our goal.
For Is years l have been a lemon
grower, and l now maintain, from all
my points OF observation, that the
Lisbon lemon leads, and has Influenced
the decision of the judges at both coun-
| try and state citrus fairs to award to the
writer the first prizes. When sold the
Lisbon has brought the highest prices
and given the best OF satisfaction and
in answer to the many inquiries l have
received, as to what lemon to plant, l
would emphatically say, the Lisbon.
The tree grows we'll and bears well; the
fruit keeps we'll, looks we'll, sells well,
and the buyer is we'll pleased with his
purchase. If there were defects in the
tree or fruit, then l would be the first
one to advise further experimentation.
The Eureka lemon tree has no thorns,
but gather as many culls from the Eu-
reka as the Lisbon; culls are generally
made by the edge of the leaf or by a
small twig rubbing against the young
lemon. The juice of the Eureka lemon
is perhaps about as good as the Lisbon :
but the Eureka lacks uniformity of ap-
pearance, is not symmetrical or well
proportioned, is very often ribbed and
cesrse-rinded, and no amount of curing
will reduce the ridges. The thorns on
the Lisbon diminish as the tree grows
older. l have Lisbon lemon trees 10 or
II years old that have as few thorns as
the Eureka.
Now am anxious that Californi a
should make no mistake about lemons.
Everyone who plants citrus trees
especially, because of the years which
add materially to the expense before you
can rectify an error - should wisely
choose the best, judging from results OBJ
tanned. Be cure and always buy your
lemon upon orange root. Gum disease,
as the writer knows to his sorrow, is
sure. sooner or later, to destroy the
lemon root.
