Planting Orchards.

A correspondent gives his method OF
fruit tree planting as follows: "Now
in regard to the setting OF fruit trees: l
never Get an orchard closer than 20 feet
each way OF any variety Of trees. Before
setting out my trees l prune off all
broken roots, being careful that the
pruning is done with q sharp knife, so
that the roots are not scared. 1 usually
set my trees one inch deeper than they
grew in the nursery. On receiving trees
from the nursery which seem wilted OF
dry, then dig trench deep enough to
receive them, and after watering them
well, cover them up and let them re-
no ain thus from two to three days, which
wi IL usually bring them out ali right, if
they have not been frozen or injured
9th erwise than from being too dry. After
/ se my trees out in the orchard, cut
theIa all back to a uniform height of
IS or 20 inches, keeping all sprouts
rubb ed from the body of the tree, allow
ing only the top branches to grow to
form the tree. My experience in pre-
pairing the ground for my orchard is to
work he land to level. and.cultivate
in the same manner. ."--tT The Alhambra.

What Is Needed fer the Proper
Curing of Lemons.
The Orange Crop Early Oranges at
Palm Springs-To Utilize Culls.
A Season OF Great
Planting.

A San Diego county. correspondent Of
the Bulletin takes the ground that in
the proper curing of lemons, dry at
mosphere and uniform temperature are
necessary. He cites case of his own
curing of rough, thick-skinned, seeding
lemons, raised near the coast, by remov-
ing them inland to an altitude of 5000
feet. He alleges that Tn one montn's
time L had beautiful, thin-skinned
lemon, whose acid had not the slightest
trace of bitterness in it, and with the
loss OF only two lemons from the entire
box treated" This, we may say, is by
no means novel experience, butts well
known to lemon growers and buyers ct
Riverside and other places. 1t is found
also in addition to the fact that coast
grown lemons cure better inland than
near the sea, that the fruit grown in the
drler climate of the interior keeps longer
than that grown near the coast, even
though cured further inland. Celifor-
mia Fruit Grower.
We believe that the time will come
when the view expressed above will be
universally accepted There are some
advantages possessed upon the coast in
regard to lemon growing, but it is very
certain that the interior sections have
on the other hand advantages not to be
overlooked by those who are undertak-
ing lemon planting - Riverside Enter

Utilize Orange CulIs.

There is always certain per cent of
the orange crop, denominated culls,
that is unfit for shipment and for
which there is no demand in the local
markets. Hitherto this has been a
dead loss to the growers. If these
culls could be utilized, the profits in the
culture of oranges would correspond
ingly increase. These waste oranges
are the kind that are used in making
marmalade, which is in demand in the
markets and brings fancy prices. We
would urge that factory be established
in Redlands for the production of mar
malade. A high grade of goods could
certainly be made, aud as we have the
oranges on the ground and the sugar
manufactured in the county. we should
be able to drive the foreign product
from the American markets. The lead
ing orange marmalade is now made at
Dundee, Scotland, and the oranges have
to be transported from the Mediterran-
can countries, and the sugar either from
the tropics or from the sugar beet re-
gions of Germany. With the advantages
that California has in this respect, the
now useless portion Of the crop should
be made to yield material addition to
the revenue of the hortichlturist.[ --Citro-

The Trainer of Tammany Pays Los An

Matthew Byrnes, who trains the
horses of Marcus DAILY, the Montana
copper millionaire and partner OF J. b.
Haggin, is spending few days in town,
accompanied by his family. Mr.. Byrnes
began life as jockey in the employ OF
Pierre Lorillard, but soon grew too
heavy to ride and began to fit himself
for trainer. When the great tobacco
millionaire got ready for his invasion of
England with Parole and Iroquois,
Jacob Pincus was sent over as head
trainer and Byrnes was first assistant.
From that day to this the name of Matt
Byrnes has been in everybody's mouth.
He is quiet and observing man and
regards you with a searching glance
while speaking. Last year he handled
the great colt Tammany, who won five
races out of six starts, and suffered that
one defeat only through bad riding.
He has new lot of English colts and
fillies just arrived at Mr.. Daly's Mon
tana ranch, and will soon be putting
them Ghroagh their PAGES. Mr.. Byrnes
is very much pleased with Los Angeles
and its surroundings ana will stay here
about month. He was out at the
Santa Anita ranch on Saturday, where
be was very Hospitality entertained by
Messrs. Falvey and Woods. He pro-
nounces the yearlings equal to any he
has seen for size and quality, and he is
also likely to give Los Angeles good
name to the eastern millionaire horse
