WEEKLY HEIM GA ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA: SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1880. Agricultural and Horticultural Items. A frost in April is a very serious matter here, the budding vineyards being peculiarly susceptible to cold. As heretofore noted in these columns, many grape growers are preparing to use the smoke preventive should occasion demand; and as this precaution has never been adopted heretofore, the following letters, giving information relative to the smoking process, will doubtless prove acceptable. The letters were written in response to queries put to the respective parties by Mr. Langenberger. He asked: 1. Do the vineyardists of your neighborhood use smoke? 2. Has it proved successful? 3. What do they use to make heavy smoke? 4. What distance do they put the smoking places or fires? St. Helena, Jan. 25, 1880. A. LANGENBERGER Esq. Dear Sir—Your favor received. 1. Smoke prevents frost. 2. I put in a flat hole—like a pannenkuchen-ofanne (pancake pan) 1 quart coal tar; then lay redwood or pine sticks across. Keep a pile of some dry wood close at hand; also a good-sized pile of green grass, or rotten straw and mature. When the thermometer sinks down at 3 o'clock in the morning to 36', I get up and watch the weather. When down to 35', I call the men up about 4 o'clock; give each (a) matches; (b) I pint coal oil; (c) a bag full of shavings. Then we all go to the North-west side of the field, distribute the men, and in ten minutes have all the fires (50 or 60) burning and smoking. You must start the fires half an hour before the sun rises, for the purpose of preventing the rays of the sun from touching the frozen leaves and The Leap Year Ball The gathering of brave women and fair men at the Leap Year Ball on Tuesday night was a flattering compliment to the young ladies who so manfully worked to make the success it turned out to be. The novelty of the affair, and the energy and tact of the management succeeded in filling the hall notwithstanding the inclement of the weather. The men braved the terrors of rain, bade defiance to the blasts of wind, conquered their repugnance to mud and affected an indifference to the slush and arrived at the hall under the protecting sigils of their stalwart escorts with toiletts but little disarranged. The dressing rooms were given up to them, and throughout the whole night the ladies scrupulously asserted the privileges which custom has crowned them with during Leap Year, paying the gentlemen those delicate little attentions usually exacted by ladies and with as ready cheerfulness as ever shown by the most gallant gentleman. We may say, with a strict adherence to truth, that no bail has ever given such general and genuine pleasure to the participants, and if, as it is rumored, the ladies contentiate giving a Calico Ball in May next, it is because the gentlemen have graciously acknowledged the superiority of their fair friends in the management of such affairs, and solicited them to assume the direction of the next terpsichorean gathering. ANAHEIM. A Conservative View of This County's Attractions. [Correspondence of the Burlington (Vt.) Free Press] ANAHEIM, Los Angeles Co., December 12, 1879. An article copied in your paper from the Atlantic Monthly on the condition of farmers in Kansas led me to think, perhaps, your readers might be interested in knowing something of the condition of that class of people in Southern California. The Atlantic writer said the State officials of Kansas were consulting as to the best means of providing for the support of the destitute families the coming Winter. But in this State none suffer for food, and the mildness of the climate precludes all idea of suffering from cold. The population is made up of persons from every State in the Union, and from nearly all quarters of the globe, and from all classes and conditions of society. The Vermonter is living neighbor to a Russian, and the reduced banker from an Eastern city, next door to a Swiss peasant, a Swede or perhaps a native Californian of the "greaser" persuasion. Of course from such a heterogenous mass it is hard to lay the foundations of law, order and good society. A large proportion are here for health, very few brought much capital with them, and many, especially from the Southwestern States of Texas and Arkansas, had nothing, being stripped by the ravages of war, and were in the condition of refugees upon reaching this State. But nearly all came with high hopes, not of being contented with a comfortable living, but of amassing a fortune by some lucky stroke. This is partly the fault of the local papers which mainly paint only the fair side of the picture, and chronicle the successes, but are very reticent upon the failures. ST. HELENA, FEB. 2, 1880. A. LANGENDERER Esq., Dear Sir: Yours of 23rd inst., was received and has met a few days' delay, to enable me to consult with vine-growers upon it. I reply to your questions thus: 1. They do use smoke. 2. It has proved successful. 3. They make it with coal tar (procured at gas factories) as follows: First, a pile of brush (the trimming of the vines); pour over that a few gallons of the tar (which is very cheap); set fire to it; it, of course, blazes up brightly; then throw over the dry manure, which smothers the flames, and makes it smoke instead. 4. The distance apart of the smoking piles is about 30 yards. When the wind is likely to come from a certain direction, there is no need of having these smokes on any but the windward side, and one line of smokes will cover a very large territory to the leeward. If you are not certain which direction the wind will come from, it would of course be prudent to have smoke-piles prepared on different sides. Our people inform me that it is not the freezing, but the sudden thawing-out that hurts. For instance, if the freezing were followed by a cloudy day, when the sun was kept from the vines, it would be all right; but if it strike directly on them as soon as it rises, and keeps it up until they are thawed out, the mischief is done. It is to keep the sun off them the next morning that the smoke is made; and to this end it is only necessary to produce it before sunrise after the frost and keep the vines covered with it till 9 or 10 o'clock. The degree of cold taken as a standard is about 30 above, Fahr. When not so cold in the morning, no smoke is deemed necessary; when as cold, or colder, it is. Hoping that this may be of service to you and our friends, and that you may all have a prosperous season, I am Very Respectfully, CHAS. A. GARDNER, Editor Star, and Sect'y St. Helena Vinicultural Society.

Keep a pile of some dry wood close at hand; also a good-sized pile of green grass, or rotten straw and nuture. When the thermometer sinks down at 3 o'clock in the morning to 36', I get up and watch the weather. When down to 35', I call the men up about 4 o'clock; give each (a matches), (b) I pint coal oil; (c) a bag full of shavings. Then we all go to the Northwest side of the field, distribute the men, and in ten minutes have all the fires (50 or 60) burning and smoking. You must start the fires half an hour before the sun rises, for the purpose of preventing the rays of the sun from touching the frozen leaves and blooms before the frost, by the raised temperature, is melted. Keep smoking till the thermometer is up to 36 again. As a matter of course, you will know how to apply the material mentioned. The grass gives, thrown on the cross pieces of wool, the best smoke. You had better experiment with your men beforehand. I forgot to say that I keep, besides a pile of wood and a pile of grass, also a 5 gallon can of coal oil on hand, to help the fire and smoke along. Respectfully yours, C. KRUG. St. HELENA, FEB. 2, 1880. A.

Blowers of Woodland, was read by Mr. Wickson. The paper spoke of the fact that while many new varieties of grapes had been introduced into this country from Europe since the primitive settlement of the State, the old method in vogue at the Missions of pruning with short spurs, leaving from one to three buds to each spur, was still in use. For this reason many varieties of grapes had been thrown aside as worthless and shy-bearing solely because the cultivator was ignorant or their habits and necessities. His experience in Central California was that every variety demanded somewhat different treatment from every other. The Muscat family should be headed just above the ground, with from one to four spurs, according to the vigor of the vine, always keeping in view balance little attentions usually exacted by ladies and with as ready cheerfulness as ever shown by the most gallant gentleman. We may say, with a strict adherence to truth, that no bail has ever given such general and genuine pleasure to the participants, and if it is rumored, the ladies contemplate giving a Calico Ball in May next; it is because the gentlemen have graciously acknowledged the superiority of their fair friends in the management of such affairs, and solicited them to assume the direction of the next terpsichorean gathering. The managers were: Miss Ella Mitchell, Miss Clemmie Schmidt, Miss Nellie Knuchel, Miss Etta Bremermann and Miss Lubbie Yo cum. Following is the order of dances and "Rules for the behavior of gentlemen." After the dances named in the programme had been disposed of, six additional ones were called, and the festivities did not cease until 4 o'clock on Wednesday morning, at which hour a torrent of rain obligingly fell to make the promenade home more interesting and refreshing: 1. Grand March—Spanish Waltz. 2. Lancer's Quadrille. 3. Polka. 4. Schottische. 5. Waltz. 6. Esmeralda. 7. Polka Quadrille. 8. Schottische. 9. Waltz. 10. Polka. 11. Quadrille. 12. Esmeralda.

They are allowed to wink once an hour. 3.-Good-looking gentlemen will not be permitted to hide their faces behind their fans. 4.-Gentlemen wishing to speak to each other on urgent business will hold up their hands and ask permission of the floor managers.

But a large class profit by experience and learn to adapt their wants to the capabilities of the country, and nowhere in the United States; I verily believe, can a family live with less expense, so comfortably, and in a measure luxuriously even; if they will divest themselves of the idea of becoming rich,and be content with a moderate but steadily increasing income. Trees grow very rapidly, and a place five years old has the appearance of an old settled country, with large shade trees; an abundance of fruit and all the home comforts.With two or three cows,a few pigs and chickens,a vegetable garden and economy,a man may support a family of six persons.Ten acres of good land with water will enable him to do this,and live with comparative ease.On the 25th of last June I stood under the trees in a fruit orchard and picked ripe peaches，apricots，figs，apples and pears;we can have strawberries forthe table nine months ofthe year;peaches are not gone before we have apples,pears and grapes,and these are succeeded bythe citric fruits,such as oranges，lemons，etc.The was an exceedingly fine exhibitofthe so-called Northern fruits atthe Los Angeles horticultural fair;as fine apples and as greata variety as can be grown anywhere,a longwith fruits supposedto be especially adaptedtothe climate.A successionof fresh vegetablescan be suppliedfromyour own garden,the entire year，或ifyou do not chooseto takethe troubleto raise them,the Chinese vegetable pediller,forka dozen eggs,giveyou peasenoughfor dinner，witha headof lettuce,a bunchof radishesanda few turnips thrownin.

A. GARDNER, Editor Star, and Sect'y St. Helena Vinicultural Society. The Assembly Committee on Viniculture, to which we referred last week, has through its Chairman, Adams, introduced a bill for the promotion of vinicultural industries. It provides for the appointment by the Governor of a Board of State Vinicultural Commissioners of seven, one from each of the seven districts into which the State is divided. The Board shall meet semi-annually and select competent persons to deliver annual lectures. It shall pay attention to the study of the phylloxera. The University shall give special instruction in the practice and theory of viniculture. The sum of $7,000 is appropriated as follows: $4,000 to the University and $3,000 to the State Society, the former for experiments. The Commissioner of Agriculture has sent to vineyardists a circular asking about two hundred questions relative to vine growing. The information desired is classed under the heads of, 1st—acreage, soil and climate; 2nd—culture; 3rd—harvest and vintage—collection and disposition of crop; 4th—diseases to vine and berry; 5th—foreign varieties of vines; 6th—table showing cost per acre of establishing and maintaining vineyard; 7th—general statistics of grape-growing and wine-making in the county. When the officials of the Agricultural Department shall publish the information derived from the answers to these circulars, there will be much in the report of value to veteran winegrowers as well as to those just embarking in the business. Commenting upon some statements in the Gazette in regard to the advantage of using drilling machines in sowing wheat, the editor of L'Union says that on the "model farms" of France the drill is used exclusively of late years, but the cultivators of small tracts refuse to adopt this way of sowing, preferring to follow the method of their fathers. These men, like their brethern in other countries, are gronds partisans de la routine, and are loth to leave the old beaten path and accept what the Yankees term "new fangled notions." By the term "model farms" is meant those large farms conducted as agricultural colleges by the government, where practical instruction in agriculture is given to the student. It has been definitely accertained on these farms that the same quantity of grain drilled will yield one-third greater than if sown broadcast. The paper spoke of the fact that while many new varieties of grapes had been introduced into this country from Europe since the primitive settlement of the State, the old method in vogue at the Missions of pruning with short spurs, leaving from one to three buds to each spur, was still in use. For this reason many varieties of grapes had been thrown aside as worthless and shy-bearing solely because the cultivator was ignorant of their habits and necessities. His experience in Central California was that every variety demanded somewhat different treatment from every other. The Muscat family should be headed just above the ground, with from one to four spurs, according to the vigor of the vine, always keeping in view balance and symmetry, and the ability of the vine to produce good fruit without overbearing. The Muscat is very sensitive to cold, and if pruned high is brought more into the influence of cold winds, and the sap is chilled. When it again flows part of the young grapes are found to have lost their vitality, and the grape or raisin product is injured. Other varieties, like the Tokay and Black Prince and others, can gradually as they grow old have their heads formed from 8 to 12 inches from the ground, giving room for their long clusters. Some varieties will not produce paying fruit at all unless long canes are left, as for instance, the Emperor. On this vine first, second and third buds rarely produce fruit, and being long jointed, the short-spur system would destroy the crop, as they do not bear second crops of any magnitude. In this respect they differ from the Black Morocco, which bears a heavy second crop, but no first crop, if pruned short. The writer's mode was to keep the head as near the ground as possible, then pruning the best low canes from two to three feet long. After that he cut away all the old wood above them, leaving enough short spurs to bear canes for the next year's crop, and tied them securely to stakes. The vine-grower will find many varieties which will repay treatment in this way, especially the seedless varieties and many others called shy-bearers. By noting the different habits of his varieties and the conditions of soil and exposure to the winds, etc., he ought to grow creditable grapes anywhere from Tehaina to San Bernardino. The San Francisco Rural Press (which by the way, always speaks of "Anaheim" wheat when it alludes to the so-called "Odeasa" variety) finds in an Australian paper an account of a new rust-proof wheat which it is supposed came from East India, as it is called "India wheat." This wheat was put to several severe tests, and grew without rusting, while other varieties were ruined by the rust. Prof. J. Henry Comstock, Entomologist of the Department of Agriculture at Washington, is now in Florida examining the insects which infest orange trees, and he will soon visit Southern California on the same mission. Farming on a large scale generally has not paid well, for several reasons: Labor is from $20 to $25 per month, the nearest market is San Francisco, and that for many things is only a shipping point, and freight is high, being controlled mainly by the Southern Pacific Railroad. For the last two years this section has felt the pressure of hard times, and the disturbance produced by the adoption of the new State constitution (or confusion) has given an uncertain feeling in business circles. But it has also taught the people to be cautious, and not stake all upon a single experiment, and the present outlook is more hopeful. The wine interests never looked so encouraging or brought such large returns. Thousands of acres will this year be planted to vines. I heard two intelligent men estimate the profits from a bearing vineyard, either for raisins or wine, at $50 per acre, and say it was a moderate estimate. Wheat raising bids fair to be profitable, and other enterprises await the careful business man who has the elements of success in himself. The present public school system is excellent, and the teachers as a class are cultivated, middle aged men and women, such as in Vermont are found in the academies and seminaries. You can seek your own society: If you wish good company it is to be found, and if you prefer low associates there is no lack. It is too true the saloon keeps company, and sometimes precedes the church and school house. But as the country grows older it is to be hoped public sentiment and education will correct this. One great and crying need of the country is good substantial men and women with sufficient principle and stamina to build up comfortable Christian homes, and help counteract the baneful influence of the loose immoral element to be found in all comparatively new countries, where there is a considerable floating population. To such persons there are as great inducements, I am sure, to be found here in Los Angeles county, as in any part of, the so-called Western States. J. W. Mackay, of Bonanza fame, has given $10,000 to the Irish Relief Fund. Representative Del Valle's Railroad Commission Bill has passed the Assembly. It now goes to the Senate. Interviews with Democrata in sixty-five towns in California as to the favorite for Presidential candidate reveal divided sentiment, Thurman, Tilden and Bayard being the choice of equal numbers. On last Friday instructions were sent out to the Associated Press agents in various towns in the State to interview leading Republicans most prominent in the face for the Presidential nomination was the favorite. The result shows that the sentiment among California Republicans is overwhelmingly for Blaine. Grant and Washburne have a good many adherents, but Sherman appears to have little strength. GAZETTE.

Mr. James Sturges, who with our young friend Seth Owen left us some days ago to seek their fortunes in Arizona, are greatly missed from the social circles, to whose enjoyment they so greatly contributed. We wish them well, but hope, when they have made their pile, they will settle among their old friends here to enjoy it, and themselves after the good old ways of the past. Mr. Gus Cook has also left us to rejoin his wife and child in Illinois. We are glad to know that he left us with regret, for we shall greatly miss his genial society. We think he will be glad to return to our sunny clime, after a short experience of the rigors of a Northern winter, and "What most we wish we long believe." Our esteemed friend Mrs. J. D. Chaffee met with quite a serious accident last Wednesday afternoon. Returning from the Beach, whither she had gone for her health, the horses gave a sudden and unexpected jump in crossing a mud hole, which snapped the bolt that held the seat. She, and Mr. Silkwood, who was soaked with her, were thrown violently backwards upon the ground. He escaped uninjured, but she sustained a severe shock, which has confined her to her bed ever since. No bones are broken, and we hope there is no severe internal injury, but her sufferings have been severe and she is not yet able to be about. As I write, the cold wind is howling about the house, quite in the fashion of "the States," and the fire is kent blazing in true San Francisco Market.

Are climatic changes so universal that we are to have a genuine cold Winter, while the fruit buds are swelling in Michigan, and the warm breezes blowing over the pine forests of Maine? Charles Coleman of Pomona had a warrant for eighty dollars drawn on the State Fund of San Jose School District. He sent it to the Commercial Bank of Los Angeles for collection. He was notified by the bank that the State fund would not be apportioned until March. Mr. Coleman made inquiries and found that San Jose district had a credit of over $700 of State fund. He wrote an indignant letter to a newspaper, charging in effect that the County Superintendent of Schools was trying to swindle him. The Commercial Bank in reply writes that they received the warrant for collection and that as it was drawn on the State fund, and as the State appropriation is not made until March, they filed the warrant with others drawn on the same fund, intending to present them for payment when the fund was apportioned, and notified Mr. Coleman of that fact. That gentleman is probably now ruminating on the impropriety and folly of "going off half cocked" as the phrase is. It is not always best to rush to a newspaper with your grievance, without making patient inquiry and being certain of the correctness of your position. The Chronicle's report of Kearney's Sunday speech at the Sand Lot: Denis Kearney at the sand lot yesterday afternoon said that Parnell told him that he came here, not to raise money for the relief of the starving people of Ireland, but to enable him to carry on the political agitation in the old country. He was favorably impressed with Parnell, and was satisfied that he was on the right track and should be supported. Since his return to California he had noticed that the New York Herald and its leprosa proprietor had donated $100,000, ostensibly for the relief of the suffering in Ireland. He undertook to assert, and defied contradiction, that it was a move simply designed to interfere with and break down the movement of Parnell to raise a fund for the Land League. The $100,000 was sent over from London for this purpose. It was British gold sent over by the Irish landlords and gold kings for this express purpose by the Herald, which had always championed the interests of the landlords against the poor people of Ireland. More than tnat, Jim Bennett was now in England seeking to marry the Princess Beatrice. He hoped Bennett would rot there before he ever returned to this country. He counselled the Irishmen of this country and their friends not to subscribe anything to such a fund, designed to fill the hungry bellies of the people in Ireland, but to give their money to the Land League fund, which, after giving the people a good meal, would enable them to rise and control the landlords to give them the land.

That the sentiment among policans is overwhelmingly not and Washburne have a sense, but Sherman appears length. The following is from a Missouri paper: Southeast Missouri is looming up as a sugar producing region. Experiments here the past summer with the early amber cane proves this section to be admirably adapted to the production of sugar from the amber cane. Besides several smaller experiments, Mr. S. J. Tompkins, of St. Louis, has operated here quite largely by planting several hundred acres. This is the second year that he has cultivated the amber cane in Southeast Missouri, and he finds that both the seed and the cane improves in size and quality each year, and the syrups made have found quick sales and remunerative prices among the largest wholesale dealers of St. Louis, commercial bakers preferring it to the best quality of New Orleans molasses formerly used by them. The syrup is easily granulated, producing from six and a half to seven and a half pounds of the finest grade of brown sugar to the gallen of syrup. Mr. Tompkins is so well pleased with Southeast Missouri, after experimenting in other localities, that he has permanently located there and is preparing to put up buildings with suitable steam machinery to manufacture sugar here on a large scale next summer from amber cane. The people feel a deep interest in the experiment and have no doubt of its complete success. From St. Louis south the amber cane, if planted early, ripens two crops to one planting, each crop yielding from 160 to 200 gallons of syrup to the acre, and from 10 to 15 bushels of seed to the acre each crop, which is worth as much as corn for feed and is said to produce from 30 to 35 pounds of flour to the bushel, fully equal to the best quality of buckwheat flour.
