A DUBIOUS CASE
Jury Instructed to Return Verdict o,
''Not Guilty" Against Foster

The trial or John Foster, charged with
having abducted 14-year-oldl Lee Mayne
from her home at Downey during the
night time and with having assaulted
her, came to an untmey end yester-
day in department one.
The general trend of the testimony
put in by the prosecution yesterday, in
sofar as it referreG to the Identification
of the defendant as the man who had
actually committed the offence, was as
unsatisfactory as that offered on the
day previous. In the afternoon the
prosecutions rested. and COUNSEL for the
defense moved for a dismissal of the
case on the ground that the statements
of the girl, Lee had in no way been cor
roborated.
This motion was denied, the court
holding that in case such as that at
bar there was no absolute legal necee-
sity that the girls testimony should be
corro borateG, but at the same time
Juo'se Smith drew attention to tbs
meagersiess and doubtfulress of the
testimony that had been offered, with
regard 10 the defendants entification.
Holding this to be insufficient, the
court instructed the jury to return a
verdict of mot guilty" and that being
done the defendant was discharged

Strawberry Beds

Mr. E P. Powell of New York is very
able and successful horticulturist. What
he writes comes with authority. He says
in the New York Tribune that success in
growing Strawberries hangs more or
soil than variety. The soil before set
ting should be free of weeds and weed
seeds. The soil should be deep and
mellow, and we'll enriched with we'll
composted manure. Such fertilizer

A COMPROMISE MADE

ern California Power company, threat
ened to result in great loss to the latter
corporation The power company was
enjoined from carrying the work on, and
very serious loss loomed ahead. The
other day Gregory Perkins, jr., was
elected assignee of Phelan's estate, and
now a compromise has been made that
will have the practical effect of smooth
ing out all difficulties
The compromise has been entered into
by the assignee of the insolvent's estate.
on the one hand, and the Southern Cali
fornia Power company on the other, on
the following basis:
The power company agrees to pay the
assignee $4,000 upon approval by the
court of the compromise agreement. The
petitioner agrees out of this sum to pay
the Blinn Lumber company the Drake
company and other claims. The as
signee valves all right to any personal
property, situated in the canyon, used
in connection with said work. and prom
ises to turn over all the real and personal
property of every kind used by the in
solvent in the prosecution of the work.
The Southern California Power COM
pany. on it's side, agrees to hold petition
er and the estate harmless by reason
of any demand for labor or material per-
formed or furnished in connection with
the contract.
Yesterday afternoon Judge Shaw rat
flied the agreement entered into and now
the work at San Bernardino will be re-
sumed by the power company and car
ried with all speed to completion.

Trimming in the Orchard

Mr.. Powell also gives excellent advice
in the same paper regarding pruning
He prunes all summer, cutting or pinch :
ing back suckers and all superfuous
shoots whenever seen. Neglect of this
means a short-lived orchard. The main
pruning may be done any time in
autumn or winter after the seasons
growth has ceased, In California
autumn pruning gives longer days.
freedom from rain and mud, and abund
ant time to remove brush before the
rush Of spring work comes on Mr..
Powell says in young orchards about
one-third The summers growth should
be removed. He rightly urges that the
best practice will make the removal OF
large limbs unneces ssary. 1t is unfor-
tunate If neglect makes it desirable to
cut large branches off. If we must do 50
the cut should be pointed. Cutting large
limbs, if it must be done, had better be
done in the early spring, just after thf
sap ceases to flow. Raspberries should
have old canes cut off as soon as pick
ing is over. but wait until late fall be
fore cutting back or heading in new
canes If neglected in autumn this
should be done surely in early spring @
The Cuthbert berry canes may stani
thickly in the row, but with such varie-
ties as the Turner and Marlboro the
canes should be as much as three or foui
inches apart in the row.
