RAiSINS And wine
Important Products of the Fa,
nous Malaga District.
Vines Not Trained on Arbors, but
Pruned to Form Bushes Cover
ing About One Square

The two principal varieties of grapes
grown in the Malaga district are the
muscatel and the Pedro Ximen. Rails
ms and wine are both made here from
the muscatel and wine from the Pedro
Ximen, observes a correspondent.
The vines are not trained on arbors,
but are pruned to form bushes that
cover an area of about one square yard
at harvest time. The vines are set out
in rows ten feet apart. During the
spring and summer they are carefully
cultivated and sprayed with sulphate
of copper to destroy insects. The
grapes begin to ripen about the first of
August. Laborers with large fiat
baskets or trays gather the fruit. 1t
is not all cut out at one time, but the
field is gone over periodically and only
the ripe clusters are cut from the vine
with scissors.
The raisins produced near Malaga
are not treated with sulphur, I've, or
oil, as is the practice in other parts
of Spain. In or near the grape field
there is thrown up an earth terrace
inclined toward the setting sun. This
is divided into sections about ten yards
long and twelve yards wide, around
which a low brick or stone wall is
built, to protect the raisins and to sup
port the canvas stretched over them
sS night or during inclement weather.
The object of this slanting surface Is
to keep the sun constantly shining
upon it. The bottoms of the drying
beds are covered with fine gravel to
retain the heat.
Immediately after being gathered,
the grapes are spread out on the beds
for exposure to the burning sun. At
nightfall the raisins are covered with
canvas to protect the fruit from the
heavy dew, and, as stated, the canvas
is also spread over them in the event
of rain. There is rarely any rain in
this section during May, June, July,
August and September. During the
process of drying the grapes that re-
main green or become spoiled are care
fully removed, and the clusters are
turned from time to time in order that
they may color uniformly. The drying
process takes about three weeks, so
that the first raisins of the season are
ready for packing about the end Of
August. Heaviest shipments go for
| ward in September.
Before packing the raisins are sort
ed and graded. After small and i'm
| perfect raisins have been cut off the
clusters are laid in boxes lined with
white paper and containing usually p
or 25 pounds of fruit. Good fruit which
has become detached from clusters
through shaking and ralsins cut from
small and irregular clusters are sena-
rated from the rejected fruit and are
! also packed for shipment. The boxes
| of raisins arc then brought to Malaga
| by the growers for disposal to the ship
pers and dealers. The prices realized
vary considerably according to the
quality of the fruit and The qCanity
of the crop, also according I" 1he c"a'
dition of the industry in the other
countries whore raisius are produced
and the general dp,a"ad in the Wor!%
markets.

Each subscriber to the Loan is to
receive a button when he makes his
subscription. and the banks and
trust companies, which will receive
the subscriptions, are amply prepared
to make the distribution promptly.
Almost every institution which has
made its call for buttons up to April
LIST had increased the number re-
quested over the number used in the
Second Loan. The button demand
measures the number of individual
subscribers to the Loan in each case.
Thus far, they have risen in this
order:
First Loan 100000
Second Loan 1900 900

NORTH SIDE MAKES REMARKABLE
SHOWING IN LIBERTY LOAN
DRIVE

Ii any one charges the Jewish commun-
ity of Minneapolis with lack of patriot
ism, no better proof of the falsity of that
charge can be given than the result of
the Liberty Loan drive in the four Jewish
precincts of the Third Ward This was
the territory assigned to the Gymal Doled
Club, the drive being engineered by Har-
ry Naftalin assisted by seven captains
each in charge of team of six men. The
captains were Messrs. Ben Goldman, Ben
Weisberg, Israel Kreiner, l. S. Joseph,
Max Shallet, Ben Dockman and Abe
Bolter. 100 subscriptions totaling $780,
600 was obtained by the teams. This
showing was very remarkable considering
that the community is poor and hardly
Americanized as Yiddish had to be spok.

NcW York i0itNn.

New York, Feb 8-The cotton mar ket opened steady today at a decline of to II points under Liverpool selling and scattering liquidation. Trade interests were good buyers of July, however, and theI market soon rallied. March sold up 10 3O.34 to 30.42, or back to about last niehtS close while May advanced to 29.S2 and July to 29.21 before the end of the first hour. or three points to seN- tn points net higher. Announcements that heatlcss Monday had been aban- doned in the states of Virginia was considered @ bulliah feature as prom lsins increased consumption in the southern mills. There Was also H feeling around the ring that con tlnuatlon of the present mild weather would soon lead to an improvement on the coal situation among the northern mills.
 Offerings increased slightly around 29.S5 for May, or about 10 points over last nights closing figures and the market eased off late in the morning. The approach of thol first March no tice delivery seemed to bring about some liquidation and the easier rul- ing of that month affected latter de- liveries. General business remained very quiet and the market showed a tendency to stamy at net decline Of to points.
 Washington advices that cotton might not be included in the price fixing bill now under consideration by the house agricultural committee probably contributed to steadier rul ing of the earlier afternoon market. Trading continued quiet and March held point or two under last nights closing figures but May worked up to 29.75 and July to 29.21, or 3 to 1 points net higher.
