EDITORS HERALD: l noticed in the

resolution passed by the official board
OF the Central Christian church OF Los
Angeles concerning him, Frank
"A. Wight, their former pas
tor, which they say Tex
plains ITSELF" On or about June
28th last, this same official board. with
some OF the leading ministers of the
Christian church, met to air their spir-
itual conscience by sensational article
in the Los Angeles HERALD which was
published June the 30th, after f. A.
Wight had gone east, and sent several
copies of the HERALD east to his friends
and the church where he had been pas
tor, in order to blast his good name
and ruin his character. But this did
not have it's desired effect among his
friends in the east, az they did not be-
lieve them. / know that these mali
cious stories circulated broadcast derog-
atory of the good character OF Rev.
Wight, are false, and not one of these

quainted with Rev. Wight for eight
years and lived near neighbor to
him for five years, and have been

these years in the city Of Cleveland,
Ohio, and there has never been blot

knowledge. He has been a very sue
cessful preacher and evangelist where
ever he has been, and beloved for his
christian character and his earnest work
in the ministry. He graduated for the
ministry in Lexington college, KY,
some eight years ago, with high honors,
and has been in the ministry ever since.
In September, 1891, be resigned his
pastorate with the church in Cleveland,
Ohio, on account of failing health,
and came to Los Angeles, CAL, and
was compelled by the evangelizing
board to 20 into the field as an evangel-
ist. His labors were crowned with 383 ad-
ditions to the different churches in 10
months. In July, 1892, he returned to
Cleveland, o to bring his family to Cal
ifornia. In September OF the same year
he settled in Los Angeles, and was en-
ployed by the Central Christian church
as their pastor for one year, where his
labors were successful for q time. until
the tongue Of the slanderer began to
wag. He resigned his pastorate with
the church last June and went to Ohio
to see his sick father and transact some
business. While there small
band OF faithful Christian men
and women, banded themselves
together, hired Union hall, corner of
Grand avenue and Seventeenth street,
to hold their weekly meetings, and on
the return of Rev. Wight they employed
him to preach for them. He has &C.
cepted the call, and they have had their
regular meetings ever since. He is not
here to start new sect or preach new
gospel, he is not here as rival to pros
elyte or injure the Central church, as
their LAST resolution would indicate. His
enemies have been persistent in their
hppercritical prosecution to ruin and
blast the character of young
man who has come here to work
for the Master and live a useful
life, and cause dark cloud to hang over
the life of his good Christian wife and
family, who are almost crushed by these
malicious reports, and especially his
venerable old father and mother in their
declining years. God have mercy on
such pretended Christianity and forgive
their objectionable ein is my prayer.

raises horses principally, being the pos

time. He has shipped several thousand
and at another 1900. He is 40 years of

Moccasins elaborately beaded inclose his

long black hair is divided into many
strands, each bound with colored elk

HOW GRAPES ARE KEPT.
The Way the spaniards Preserve Their
Fruit.

Tho Way the spaniards Preserve Their
Fruit.
The New England Homestead says
There are hundreds of barrels OF grapes
sent yearly from Spain and they have
to be kept for weeks and months after
picking. The fruit is cut from the
vines with sharp knife before it gets
over ripe. 1t is spread on benches
IL to IS inches deep in close room and
left to sweat two or three days. All
broken or discolored berries are then
cut out with long, pointed scissors and
the fruit is packed in barrels in dry
cork dust. A layer of dust is put in the
bottom, and then layer of grapes, and
60 on until the barrel is full. 1t is we'll
shaken during the process, and all spaces
filled with the dust. The barrels are
kept in cool places after being received in
New York.
Native grapes may be kept in the
game way. Care must be exercised not
to let them get too ripe. Select well
formed punches and only such varieties
as have q tough akin and hang we'll to
the stem. Those in which the punches
are not too compact are preferable to
the solid punches. They may be packed
in bran or very fine sawdust-in fact
almost anything that will keep the air
away from the fruit. Store the pack
ages in dark. dry, cool place and there
will be no trouble in keeping the fruit
till after Christmas.

Renewing rnsssi. from Corn.

BY D. B. Wier, Trenton, CAL: For
several years great deal has been writ
ten concerning the supposed increase in
the yield OF field corn by removing the
tasssls from every other row as soon rs
they appear. The tAssels carry the male
organs OF the corn, namely the anthers
with their pollen, while the ''silks" At
the end Of the ear shoots are the pistils
CT female organs Of generation. 1t has
long been known that the production Of
flowers WAS quite exhaustive to q plant,

Profit In Prunaa.

Colonel r. f. Moulton is one OF the
principal landowner OF Coluss county.
He expresses much satisfaction over the
yield OF an acee of prune trees which be
planted six years ago. There are 134
trees on the acre of ground, and the
average yield thiseeason was 800 pounds
to the tree. This gives total yield OF
40, 200 pounds. The fruit was sold at
IL cents pound, 80 that the value Of
the crop from the one acre was 1908.
The colonel thinks that this is long
way ahead OF wheat-growing, aud felici.
tates himself on the fact that he has
120 acres planted with prune trees.
The herald., 1893-11-12
Pruning Graps vInes.

J. H. Baird of the Fresno county hor-
ticural board advocates so pruning grape
vines that there will be little second
crop. He believes this can be done by
leaving on the canes at pruning time q
greater number of buds. If the vines
put out 10 fruit-bearing canes there
will be fruitage on the first eight
to twelve inches OF each cane, and
the crop thus borne will be heavy
enough to very much tighten the sec
ond crop. This seems good reasoning,
and may result in Q substantial inn
provement in the output of frstcrop
rsisins; and the full development of
this plan, as experience may dictate,
may result in finally having second
crop go light that there will be no ques-
tion about the disposal of it.

Potash for Dropping Oranges.

Iobhbh hor dropping OIauGeDs
A writer in the Florida Fruit Grower
strongly argues for potash as fertilizer,
saying:
In the spring of 1892 one of your
correspondents reported an experiment
with potash on two groves which goes
to show that lack of potash is the
cause OF oranges dropping. In fewest
words, and writing from memory, it
was In this wise
The owner Of two groves OF like char
acter and conditions gave one OF them
liberal applications of potash during the
season; the other was not go fertilized.
The potash-fed grove held it's fruit; the
other did not. The next year, he re-
versed the experiment, and the result
was again strikingly in favor of the pot
ash, and the grove that had had the
potash the year before dropped
its fruit badly, indicating that
the potash lasted but one
year. Remembering this, early
in the fall OF the same year l applied
potash sulphate. and there WAS scarcely
any dropping. In the previous season
the loss was 10 or IL per cent. A ton
OF potash has just been given to say
800 trees. This il merely supplement
to the regular fertilizing.

In the above caption we have refer
ance to an orchard of almond trees, four
years old at the beginning OF the pres
ent year. the extent Of which counts
APO acres, and the location on Rio Boni-
to, adjoining Biggs. On this orchard
this years crop (according to expert
statements) will not be less
than rs tons, or 100000 pounds.
These almonds are of the
soft-shell varieties - about one-third
paper shells--which always find ready
market at from 16 to 25 cents per pound.
At the lowest price the crop this year
will be worth to the owners on board
