New Method With Irish Potatoes.

New Method With Irish Potatoes.
Every season springs new sensation
in the way of new methods OF cultlvat-
ing the Irish potato. The horticultural
Cleaner brings to light candidate for
honors as having real new" method.
The secret of the new method of po-
ia to growing is to grow the potatoes be-
before planting and dig the potatoes
planted.
Sprout the potatoes, and raise little
potatoes from the sprouts to plant. To
obtain these results, the discoverer of
the new method constructed sprouting
house, with double walls filed in with
sawdust and sawdust over head, and
double doors. The seed potatoes are
put into old barrels and small boxes to
keep them warm and make them sprout.
The room is kept warm by means of a
small charcoal fire in bake oven. The
young potatoes will begin to grow, and
in four to six weeks, they will be the
size of peas.
The discoverer tells how he plants in
the following language
81 now knock the barrels or boxes to
pieces, and [ find mass of roots and
sprouts and myriads of little new pota-
toes. The numerous roots hold the
whole mass together, and load it on
hand barrow and have two men carry it
down the row while [ break off hand
full of the mass and drop it on the balk
in the furrow already prepared as stated.
Count the little potatoes on the stems
until you can form an idea of how much
a handful you must break off. Your
hand should not contain more than
forty, nor less than twenty
81 plant in water furrow, but leave
a narrow balk in the bottom, and upon
this drop the seed every eighteen
inches. Part of the seed falls on one
side of the balk and part on the otEer,
SO really have a double hill. I cover
with two burrows. The seed I use is
generally the siz9 of English peas,
though they run from the size of q
BIRDS eye to that of marble. Of these
drop from twenty to sixty in each hill,
and if there is enough rain every one
will make a fine potato. It never takes
more than seventyfve potatoes grown
in this way to make a bushel, and often
sixty will do 1T; but it takes manure to
grow them. After rains, put on liquid
manure in addition to the manure
already in the soil. The manure gov
ems the yield"
1t is claimed by the new method, po-
tatoes can be grown in from four to six
weeks, while the old method requires
from three to four months. By the new
method, six crops can be raised an
nually. Of course, the ground it heav-
lily fertilized.

sion of letter from the genuine Schlatter,
written from Albuquerque last August. II
was penned to ask the heale-'s help for a
lady who then lay i'll in Denver. A letter
in plain and rather fine hand, signed
Francis Schlatter, is as follows:
Dear Sir-I recsived your letter Of the
9TH, and will state unto you that your wife
will he we'll in two months. Thank the
father. Yours truly,
P. S.-This letter heals any pain. just
lay it on the seat of the pain, and the pain
will go.
Accidentally or otherwise, in just two
months from the date of this letter the lady
was so far recovered as to be able to start
for California, and she is now alive and
we'll and in San Bernardino.
The man was induced to write his name,
and he wrote "Elijah Lyon" and there is a
striking similarity between it and the letter
from Schlatter.
Whether the man in Jail is the same
healer who created the excitement on the
other side of the mountains or not, he be-
lieves that he is under the direct control of
higher power which orders all his move
ments, and his face is very much like the
accepted picture of the Savior.
He will not be worked in the chaingang
again.

ORGAN RECITAL

Free Concert at the First Congregational

The announcement that free organ re-

South Hill street brought out good sized
audience who enjoyed musical treat that
was novel as well as delightful. Although
Mr.. Wood presided at the organ not:sonce
board with his hands. The beautiful deep
notes of the instrument were produced by
an Eolian attachment, which is worked by
an electrical current and'was heard for the
frat time west of Detroit yesterday after
noon. The people of Los Angeles owe a
debt of gratitude to Mr.. Hildreth for placing
in the city an instrument of such value and
beauty. Although not the largest organ on
the coast it is considered the finest that
has been heard, the range from the deep,
strong bass notes to the treble are we'll
balanced, and are of quality that
is pure and sweet. In the exquisite
selection of Murrillo, allegro de concerto,
then given, the high notes were especially
well emphasized, being soft and delicate.
by singing Farewell, by Mozart. At the
conclusion of the program Mr.. Wood very
courteously invited those interested in the
new aeolian attachment to the platform
and explained in all parts the working of
the instrument. The program was as fol-
lows: Stradella, overture; Foet and Peas
ant, overture; Seniramide, overture, by
Rossini; Midsummer Nights Dream, Men
delssohn; Rhaposde Hongroise, Liszt {;
William FELL, Rossini.
Tonight there will be another free con-
cert. Three numbers will be given by Herr
Middelshulte and the others with the aeo-
liam attachment.

HIS WOUNDS PROVED Fatal
Death OF One of the Cinnamon Assaulted
at Vernon
His Companion In Very Precarious Cond!-
tion-The Clubs With Which tho
Murder Was Committed Found

One of the Cinnamon so brutally assault.
ed by gang of toughs Sunday evening at
the terminus of the Vernon car line on
Central avenue, just beyond the city lin
its, died from the effects of his injuries
Sunday night.
As has been slated, the Cinnamon re-
fused to allow white doctor to attend the
wounded man, or to have him taken to the
receiving hospital, where he could have
proper medical treatment. On the con-
trary, he was spirited away to Chinatown
and concealed in a room in a house on Ap.
ablasa street, where he died some time
during the night. The Cinnamon did not
report the case to the coroner, and the fact
that the Chinaman was dead was not
known Hntil Sheriff Burr went down to
Chinatown yesterday morning, when it was
reported to him. The body was then
moved to Garrett's undertaking establish
ment, on North Main street, where the cor
oner will hold an inquest today.
The second Chinaman, who was also
clubbed over the head, is also in a bad way,
and if he is not properly treated, he too
may die. The Chinaman could give but
little information about the assault, as he
was struck few seconds after the first
man was knocked down. 1t was quite dark
and only the outlines of the men could be
seen. The Chinaman said that one of the
highwaymen was a very small man, not
over five feet high. Another was quite tall
| and had heavy, sandy moustache. The
third was a stout, heavy man of about the
same build as Sheriff Burr. This was all
that he could say, and as the description is
very meagre, there is nothing to work upon
and the officers are not very sanguine of
catching the murderers.
Sheriff Burr has detailed Deputies White
and Barnhill on the case, and they put in
the entire day investigating in the vicinity
of the crime. They finally found the clubs
with which the Cinnamon were assaulted
They are about three feet long and two
inches in diameter and are of green blue
gum. They were taken to the sheriffs
