A THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JUNE 13, 1895 11 LATEST OAKLAND NEWS, Champion Shot-Putter Ralston Wilbur Injured in an Altercation. HIT WITH A MONEKEY WRENCH. Efforts to Secure the Wilmerding School for the City of Oaks. Ralston T. Wilbur, the champion shot- putter of the Pacific Coast, was seriously injured in a difficulty with James C. Hay- croft at the Union Iron Wozks on Tuesday evening. The cause of the trouble was due to the discharge of Haycroft, who was compelled to resign on the afternoon of the guarrel. ‘Wilbur has charge of the tools of a certain number of the mechanics at the works, and on the afternoon mentioned, when Hayeroft went to the window of the tool- house to give up his paraphernalia, he got into a hot discussion with Wilbur. One word led to another, and finally the latter lost his temper and made a lunge at Hay- croft, who retaliated by bitting Wilbur on the forehead with a heavy iron wrench. The wound inflicted was quite serious, the blow being sufficient to knock the young man insensible. 3 The injury was dressed and Wilbur was removed to hi§ home in West Oakland. Haycroft made his escape, but was caught late in the evening on Third street, San Francisco. He was locked up in the Southern police station. Wilbur is one of Oakland’s most popular voung men. He graduated from the Oak- land High School last December, where he as an athlete of more than ordinary He has held the championship of ific Coast in_shot-putting for the past three years. For the past three months he "has been employed in the Union Iron Works, where he is studying electrical engineering. A Society Wedding.

The Town Marshal has been advised to delay carrying out the order of the Board of Trustees regarding saloon licenses until the action relating to licenses has been rescinded, which will probably be consid- ered at their next meeting. The saloon- keepers have decided to meke a test case of the present difficulty, and have em- vloyed C. F. Baker of the California Pro- tective Association and Attorney Thomas Garrity of Oakland to draw up a com- plaint and arrest one of their number in order to put the matter throngh the courts. Marshal Lloyd said yesterday to a CaLy correspondent that six men are conducting saloons without a license, some of whom have tendered the $100 fee, which he re- fused.

Robinson, who has been dubbed “Stopover” on account of the sev- eral hundred suits brought against the Southern Pacific for refnsal to sell him stopover privileges between Alameda and San Francisco, has concluded to direct some of his attention to Captain Thomp- son of the Artesian Water Works. The doctor has brought suit in Justice Swasey’s court to recover $110, basing his claim for damages on article XIV of the State constitution, which provides that a water companv must charge only such rates for water as are fixed by the authori- ties of the municipality in which its mains are laid. The point is that in July, 1893, he re- quested the company by a notice in writing to supply his house at 2237 San Antonio avenue with water at the lawful price and rate, instead of which, according to the complaint, the company extorted irom him $10, not as a charge or rate fixed by law, but for tapping the main, a demand which is declared to have been illegal.® Being deprived of the use and supply of water 0 necessary to himself and family, says the doctor, he suffered loss and dam- age in the sum of $100. He therefore prays for this $100 and the $10 paid under duress and protest. The suit was first brought against the Artesian Water Works, a corperation, but the attorneys, Cator and Majors, learned that the works were not incorporated and the complaint was amended by substitut- ing the name of Captain R. R. Thompson. Gray Discharged. George E. Grdy, who was taken into custody Tuesday on suspicion of having stolen $307 in coin from Mrs. 8. Jones, who resides on Lafayette street, had his ex- amination last evening and was dis charged. Gray formerly roomed with Mrs. Jones, and when he left several day ago for San Francisco Mrs. Jones mi her money, which she kept in a canvas bag and two purses. No testimony was pro- duced to show thdt Gray was in any manner connected with the theft, and the case was dismissed. Street-Opening Litigation. Mrs. Emilie G. Cohen, widow of the late Cohen, has put in a claim against th. y for $87, being $57 50 for costs in- curred in Lincoln avenue and $29 50 in the Santa Clara avenue opening litigation. After a contest in both cases the improve- ments were voluntarily undertaken. Suit for the Recovery of Damages. Frederick Mondler, who sustained nu- merous bruises about the head ar by being pushed off a moving train at San Rafael last Sunday, has ret: d Lawyer 5. M. Jennings, ',\;‘ith instructions to bring suit against the ‘North Paciiic Coast Rail- road for $5000 damages. The Trustees’ Annual Vacation. The Board of City Trustees will enjoy a yacation durine the week following the Fourth of July, hence there will be no meeting on Monday, the Sth prox. It has long been the custom for the board to take a rest for one week every summer. A New Point Raised. City Attorney E. K. Taylor has raised a new point in the library entanglement, which is that the warrant drawn by the old board of trustees is illegal. NEWNAN'S QUEER STORY, Peculiar Conduct of Deputy Sheriff Riley and Marion Wilson. Judge Campbell Orders a Searching Investigation to Be Made Into the Case. Judge Campbell’s court wisnessed the disclosure of a peculiar story yesterday. Peter Newman arrived from the East last Friday and on Saturday night he was ar- rested for committing an assault with a deadly weapon upon Ah How on Dupont street and also charged with carrying a concealed weapon. When searched $77 and a gold watch were found in his pockets. Newman employed Attorneys Frey and Kenny to defend him, but when his case was called on Monday morni he told them he bad dispensed with their services. The case was continued till yesterday, and, when it was called, Attorney Rior- dan, special prosecutor, said he was ready to proceed. The Judge asked Newman if he was represented by an attorney, and in reply he made a remarkable statement. He said in effect that he was visited in the City Prison by Marion Wilson and Ed Riley, a Deputy Sheriff. They professed great interest in his case, and told him they would procure an attorney for him and witnesses, and get him out on bail if he would sign an order on the propert; Clerk to deliver over the $77 and gol watch and chain to them. He gave them an order on Tuesday, and they went and got his Fmpert,v, but he had never seen or heard of them since. Judge Campbell directed the court stenographer to take Newman’s statement in full and then continued the case after instructing Attorneys Frey and Kenny to make an Investigation and report the re- sult to Chief Crowley. Clerk Moffitt, in charge of Chief Crowley’s office, remembered Riley com- ing to him with the order on Tuesday morning. Moffitt went to Newman in the city prison and asked him if he had signed the order and he said ‘“Yes, I wantm friend Mr. Riley to get my property.” Moffitt_consulted Property Clerk Cullen and at his suggestion Newman was taken to the property clerk’s office, where Riley was waiting. ~ He was again asked if he wanted his property to be handed to Riley and he again replied in the affirmative and Riley got it. Attorney Frey said last night that he would swear out warrants this morning for the arrest of Wilson and Riley on the charge of obtaining money and goods un- der false pretenses. Ratable Values in Englaund. Official regom just published in Eng- land show that the ratable value of all the land in Engiand ana Wales declined from £39,825,000 in 1870 to £33,654,000 in 1894—a fact due to agricultural depression. But in the same period there has been a heavy increase in tgg ratable value of other prop- erty, especially in railroads, mines and buildings. The total valuation for 1894 was £161,081,000—an increase over 1870 of £56,- 211,000, or 53.6 per cent. Railways lead the list. with an increased valuation of 184.8 per cent.—Chicago Inter Ocean. PACIFIC COAST ~ FARMS, Review of Agricultural Condi- tions in California’s Counties. FIELD,ORCHARD AND VINEYARD Notes of Interest From Valley, Plain and Foothill Homesteads and Ranches. The morning-glory is not regarded in the light that its name would imply by the orchardist and vineyardist, upon whose land it has become a pest that is hard to eradicate. Orchardists are now studying methods of killing it off. Senator B. F. Langford of Lodi advises the use of a weed-cutter. He says: “I planted an or- chard seven years ago last springand parts of the land were covered with morning- glory. I ran my weed-cutter, over the patches every Monday morning from six to eight inches deep from the 1st of April to November, which entirely killed it out. The next year fresh seed, which was still in the ground, sprouted and the pest wonld have been equally bad had I not started my weed-cutter. It. does mnot spread from the roots, but comes from the seed, it being scattered by the plow.” A Chicago cattle-buyer being interviewed by a reporter of the Pendleton East Orego- nian a few days ago stated that the cattle supply of this country was 375,000 head short. Prices of fed cattle are a good dollar higher than they werea yearago. Continu- ing, the buyer said: ‘1 would like to say to the people of this section—raise cattle and sheep and hogs. Raise lots of them. Let every ome help along the industry. Don’t depend on grass-fed cattle, though, but raise grain to feed with the hay. You people cannot raise too many cattle. If grain prices are too low you can feed the grain and drive it to market and get good pric:s’in the shape of beef, mutton and pork.” E. F. Kellner of Pheenix, Ariz., is the largest grower of alfalfa jn that Territory and says: “To show what the soil of the valley will do when irrigated I will give an example of my alfalfa patch. I have 1000 acres in a body, all sown to alfalfa, and this pays me clean cash ,000 a year. Fruit has its drawbacks in caring, packing, shipping and a dozen other vexations de- tails; but my alfalfa patch goes right along without trouble, netting me more clean than any other of my investments. Strikes may come and go, markets may fluctnate, scale and pests may eat out orchards, banks may burst and mines peter out, but my alfalfa patch goes on forever.” ‘We stir up the soil often in the summer that we may retard the evaporation of moisture, but the amount of moisture checked in this way is small compared with that which is taken from the soil by dinary growth of weeds. Therefore, 1g of the weeds by the plow is of vastly more importance in conserving isture than is the mere stirring of the il.—American Agriculturist. The country in and around Fallbrook, in San Diego County, is a rather typical Southern California section, says the Los Angeles Times. It embraces 40,000 acres, 17,000 of which are vigorously cultivated. There are 3072 stands of bees. This rich agricultural district is operated by a popu- lation of only 862. The Logan berry now ranks among the successses in small fruit culture. It isa cross between the raspberry and wild blackberry, is very large andis finely fla- vored. It bears more heavily and requires less water than any other small fruit, and certainly offers quite a field in the way of berry culture. Colostrum, or the first milk after calving, should not be sent to make either cheese or butter. Not until the fifth day does the milk become normal. Previous to thi3it contains a high perceniage of albumen, which is of no use to either the cheese or the butter maker, but it is a decided hin- drance. Reports from the various fruit sections of the State indicate that pear and apricot crops are very light; apples, average crop; olives, an abundant yield; prunes, 50 per cent short; cherries, hali a crop; citrus fruits, outlook favorable; small fruits abundant; grapes give spiendid promise. Wollen are suited to poultry-raising, but it is not beneath the attention of strong men, if it is to be made a business. Cash is the stimulant ever behind it, and the hens supply their daily quota, besides having something coming’ in every day in the future. The size of the egg has something to do with its value, but as a rule it is not of so much importance to the buyer as is a clean, pure shell. Every customer will in preference take that which pleases his eye; appearance will even create a want. Scientific analysis telisus that there is as much nutriment in a new-laid egg as in a four-ounce mutton chop. It is un- wise, therefore, to neglect the fowls and feed them nothing but worthless screen- ings. The birds must more than live. The Missojen wheat is bearded and is Hessian-fly proof. It is a good variety, and oonsidering that the Hessian fly has played havoc with wheat-fields in the East it is well to know that wheat may be grown that this pest cannot destroy. Cassabana, a cucumber-like edible fruit, red in color, is an Indian plant that is be- ing grown as an experiment at the State University farm. It is said to make an ex- cellent table dish. The plant will fiourish in Southern California. As an early grain of fine quality the Australian wheat takes a prime station. It ripens in advance of the varieties now commonly sown in this State, and seed from it is being sent to whosoever may apply for it. Good Seed. Comparatively few farmers seem to re- alize the importance of carefully selected and well-cleaned seeds, says Dwight Her- rick, in the New York Tribune. Espe- cially is this so of the cereals—wheat, oats and rye. Usually the seed is sown just as it came from the thresher, with its light grain and noxious weed seeds. By run- ning through a fanning-mill the light grain und most of the weed seed can be separated from the better grain; this, at least, should be aone. But to improve a variety of grain great care must be taken to secure the best-formed heads, the plumpest kernels, from the stiffest straw possible. One of the very best varieties of winter wheat in cultivation in the United States was secured by selecting the best- shaped heads at harvest-time and after. ward hand-picking to get the most plump and better shaped Kernels. It was a tedious job, but brought the reward. This variety yielded forty-six bushels per acre on an Ohio farm the last season, and brings the highest price of any seed wheat known to the writer. Oats are more apt to deteriorate in this country than any other grain. Imported varieties weighing upward of fifty pounds })er bushel will in five or six years fall to rom twentyveiiht to thirty-two or thirty- three pounds. In the hands of a very care- ful farmer they will not deteriorate so fast; but the blight and _rust caused by our eli- mate weaken the vitality, which cannot be overcome entirely by the most careful se- lection and cultivation. So ouronly re- course is to occasionally change our seed, being sure to get imported grain. The best imported oats come from Scotland and Norway. Most farmers take some care of their seed corn. Why not of the other grain? The same laws govern all. The average vield could be greatly increased by a more care- ful selection of seed. ‘‘For as ye sow, so shall ye reap.”” Preparing Fruits for Market. The value of any kind of fruit in the markets of the world depends largely or is mainly influenced by its size and appear- ance, said B. F. Walton at the Yuba City meeting of the State Horticultural Society. Other things being equal, the greater and more uniform the size the more money the given grade will bring. The soil and cli- mate of California enable the average fruii- grower to produce a very large proportion of his fruit of the more valuable sizes, but so far the attention of few, comparatively, has been called to the importance of a thorough and uniform system of grading as one of the most important steps in the preparation of all kinds of fruit for market. In preparing cured fruit for market, to insure the most saiisfactory results all fruit should be thoroughly ripe before gathering for the dryer; poor or imper- fectly ripened fruit never makes choice dried fruit. It should be graded by hand as to size, to insure uniformity in drying; smoothly cut, if cut at all, to avoid razge edges; carefully bleached and dried, then taken to the warehouse, passed through an effective grader and each grade placed in its appropriate bin, where it is to remain until soI)d. when each grade should be nicely packed and branded with the appro- priate label generally adopted for it. To make these successive steps practical among ordinary or small fruit-growers, association and organization become at once desirable and a real necessity. From the experience of the past four years the co-operative plan of curing and packing fruit has proven most satisfactory to growers and can be greatly extended, as it brings all the ndvnntag]qs of machinery, warehouse and other apoliances .possgsse.ti by the most extensive orchardist within reach and available to the smallest grower. It is strongly recommended as the most effective means to secure satisfactory re- turns for all our cured products. It ma- terially reduces the cost of production and at the same time tends to greater uni- formity and superiority of quality and gives to the average grower a much wider and varied knowledge of his business. Profit in Raising Capons. “Now that the hard times have waked people up to the profits of to be made out of poultry-raising, why not branch outa little and raise capons for 8an Francisco epicures,”says E. W. Sanderson in the San Jose Pathfinder. In the spring of 1893 I shipped Ao Ban Francisco one and a half dozen of young roosters and got ssllper dozen—less freizht and commission. The next week I Shis)kped one dozen capons from the same flock and the same ageand got $15 per dozen, a clear profit of 50 cents each on my capons. The nextone of my neighbors sent down some Cochin capons, about nine months old. He got $15 per dozen. Inow ask the question, ‘Will it pay? 31f you ask a poultry-dealerabout capons he will tell you there is no market for capons on this coast. The reason there is no market is there are no capons. If a club was organized that would produce 100 dozen capons of some large breed and give the selling or them to some good, responsi~ ble dealer in the city it would not be long before he would have his regular capon customers, who would pay more per pound for good capon than they would for turkey, and then that dealer would have to keep capons. And how would vou feel if you had say 200 capons to sell, that would average twelve Potmds each, at 15 or 20 cents per pound ?”’ Rules for Fattening Fowls. Recently I have been favored with a statement from one of our most successful poultry fatteners, as to the rules which guide him, and the methods he adopts to secure success. The following is a sum- duction of flesh, as compared with the condi- tlons under which the birds are kept. 2. There is considerable difference in the readiness with which fowls fatten, even of the same variety. In selecting for this purpose, & large-framed bird should be chosen,and one that has well grown. _ 3. The birds thus selected shouid be placed in a large run (outside), and for the first three or four weeks fed on no more than one meala day, then gradually increasing the quantity until they have as much as they can eat, when they are finished off by cramming, which, in itself, occupies three weeks. The object of this freatment is to reduce them as much as possi- ble at first, and then gradually build up the fiesh upon the frame. This method is not suit- able for young chickens, which are fed right off, but for large fowls to be killed about Christmas. | 4. When cramming commences each bird should be placed ina separate pen, or half & dozen of the same age and sex togéther, in & quiet, sweet, and, if possible, rather dark room oz shed, and for the first few days be fed from & trough, finishing off by the crammer. The food should consist of either fine barley meal, or fine Kentish ground oats, mixed with & little fat, and made with milk into a paste when feeding from the trough, and like very thick cream when used with the crammer. The fat should be small in quantity at first, but may be gradually increased during theé process. 5. Before & bird is crammed each meal the crop is felt, and if there remain any food in it irom the previous meal no_food is given until the next time of feeding. Observations should be made as to the quantity assimilated so as to | give a fowl each time as mear as possible just about as much as it can digest. Should a bird show anv sigus of sickness during the process itshould be-placed in an open run for twenty- four hours without food. To sid digestion grit muy bekept in o dish before cach pen, and boiled nettles mixed with the food twice or thrice a week asan aid in_keeping the blood cool. Young chickens may be fed thrice a day, but for older bizds twice & day is much to be preferred. 6_After the birds are killed, to prepare for which they should be kept without food for thirty-six hours, the blood is drained from the body, end the fowls are plucked immediately. The meat is then drawn by the hands forward o the breast, and the legs tied back to keep it in place. The bird, while still warm, is dipped into cold water, and thus becomes_stiff, but it is an improvement to wrap the body in linen cloths dipped in milk or water. : The above indicates the methods adopted for producing the best table fowls, and while en- tailing trouble and care, brings its own re- ward, for the specimens so produced com. i‘nlgd 8004 prices.—Stephen Beale, H—, Eng- an Always FIRST ¢ (ail Borden ¢ Eagle Brand H CONDENSED [MILK L2 & Bt 1 Yo et e 1818 the A PERFECT FOOD FOR INFANTS 000000000 AUCTION SALES.
