JULIUS VOIGT. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT Of Los Angeles County, State of California. In the matter of the Estate of Maria J. Webber, deceased. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT ON THE 28th Agricultural and Horticultural Items. The farmer who, when the month of March comes, will devote a couple of acres of his farm to the cultivation of the meek and lowly peanut, will be astonished at the profits of his undertaking. There is always a good demand for peanuts. Every pound that is raised in this county this year can be sold in Los Angeles or Anaheim at from four to six cents per pound, and the supply is far from satisfying the demand. Of course, if every farmer went largely into peanut culture, the result would be a demoralized market, but two or three acres out of every forty under cultivation might profitably be given over to the peanut. The great apostle of peanut culture in this bailiwick is Ah Bing. He is a very enterprising Celestial, and knows a thing or two. He knows, for instance, that he can make more out of one acre of peanuts than he can out of five acres of vegetables, and that is why he pays so much attention to the groundnut. He is now gathering his crop, part of which he has already sold at six cents per pound. For whatever value is given in the following the world is indebted to Mr. Bing: The proper time to plant peanuts is in March. About twenty pounds of seed to the acre should be used. The nut will sprout much quicker if the shells are taken off and only the kernels planted. Plant four or five inches deep, in hills (the same as potatoes), and put the hills about 18 inches apart. When the nuts first appear, they should be irrigated; and irrigation should be repeated every two or three weeks when it is practicable. The nuts will grow without irrigation, but by a liberal use of water they will fill better and give a much larger yield. The weeds should be kept down, and the ground kept loose with the hoe. The nuts ripen generally from the 15th of September to the same date in October. We have seen it stated somewhere that peanuts impoverish the soil quickly, but that is certainly not true of this place. The soil is quite sandy and has never been fertilized. After the nut crop is gathered the ground is planted to vegetables which mature before March, and this constant cropping does not appear to have any effect upon the fertility of the soil. The crop this year will average sixty sacks Chicago market with a profit to the producer. In order to show the magnitude of the raisin business, I will give some statistics from official sources: EXPORT OF RAISINS FROM MALAGA TO THE UNITED STATES. Year. Boxes. Hbla. Pralsa. (00 Bc.)

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6. — Professor Riley says that he has reached a stage in the management of the cotton worm where there is no longer any excuse for its ravages, and that the Caterpillar and the bell worm will cease to be a cause of anxiety to intelligent and enterprising planters. Political Points. One of the absurdities of modern politics is the way in which the various political parties announce their meetings. They get up flaming posters and advertisements announcing that Mr. So-and-lso will deliver an address, and calling frantically upon everybody holding the same political views as the speaker to be present. An observant person cannot fail to notice that the invitations to a Democratic meeting are invariably addressed to Democrats, and that Republicans for miles around are drummmed up to attend a Republican meeting. In this way an appalling amount of eloquence and logic wasted. It seems very absurd for a speaker to exert himself until his face resembles a boiled lobster, in injecting political salvation into an audience who thoroughly believe in the doctrines promulgated. If his logic and argument were addressed to a doubting or thoroughly antagonistic audience then indeed IN THE SUPERIOR COURT Of Los Angeles County, State of California. In the matter of the Estate of Maria J. Webber, deceased. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT ON THE 28th day of September, 1880, Alfred Becket presented and bled in the said Court a verified petition claiming to be entitled to a conveyance from the Administrator with the Will annexed of Mar a J. Webber deceased, of the following described real estate, to with all that certain lot or parcel of land situate in the Ranch of La Meritica, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California, and bounded and particularly described as follows: to wit: The south-east fourth of the south-east quarter of Section number twenty-five (25) in Township four (4) south of the base line, range eleven west of San Bernardino meridian, estimated to contain forty acres, subject to the re-ervation by A. Robinson, trustee, of a strip of land thirty feet wide along and adjoining each side of the Township, Range and Section lines for roads, railroads and ditches. That said petition sets forth the facts upon which claim is predicated and said petitioner therein prays that a decree of said Court be made, authorizing and directing Robert Strong, the administrator with the Will annexed of said estate, to convey said estate to said petitioner. And notice is hereby given that Monday, the first day of November, 1880, at ten o'clock in the foreroom, at the Court room of said Superior Court presided over by Hon. V. E. Howard, Judge at the Court House in the City and County of Los Angeles, has been duly appointed as the time and place for hearing said petition. A. W. POTTS, Clerk. Los Angeles, September 28th, 1880. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT Of the State of California, in and for the County of Los Angeles. JAMES GARRISON, Plaintiff, MARY CAROLINE THOMAS et al., Defendants. Action brought in the Superior Court of the State of California, in and for the County of Los Angeles, and the complaint filed in said County of Los Angeles, in office of the Clark of said Superior Court. The people of the State of California send greeting to Mary Caroline Thomas and Ierdel Dayles Thomas, Defendants. You are hereby required to appear in an action brought against you by the above named Plantiff in the Superior Court of the State of California, in and for the County of Los Angeles, and to answer the complaint therein, within ten days (exclusive of the day of service), after the service on you of this Summary—if served within this County; or, if served out of this County, within forty days—or judgment-by default will be taken against you according to the prayer of said Complaint. The said action is brought to obtain a decree of this Court for a partition of the land described as follows: to wit: (All that tract of land situate in the Ranch Santa Ana, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California, commencing at the N.E corner of the land of Francisco Rodrigues (being the tract of land sold to Rodrigues by A. B. Chapman on the 13th day of October, 1870); thence east 14 chains 27 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west 74 chains 37 links to a point; thence south 34 chains 80 links to a point; thence west THE FAIR THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HORTICULTURAL Society will make the finest and largest display of Horticultural and Agricultural products this Fall ever made by them. In addition to the premium offered by the Society, the Sixth District Agricultural Association also offer a liberal premium list for agricultural products, the exhibit of which is to be made together with that of the Horticultural Society, in the Horticultural Pavilion. OCTOBER 18th to 23d, inclusive The Joint Exhibition in one Pavilion will ensure the largest and best exhibition of Horticultural and Agricultural products ever made on the Pacific Coast. The Premiums offered for Horticultural and Agricultural products to be exhibited at the Horticultural Pavilion this Fall exceed in number and value those offered by any other Society or Fair on this Coast. The Southern California Horticultural Society is the only association on the Pacific Coast which makes Horticultural and Agricultural Products the basis for an exposition. The people of Southern California are more especially interested in, and more nearly identified with the important work of advancing and improving the Horticultural and Agricultural industries of our country than in any other enterprise. Nothing will or can do more to advance these interests than a general and friendly competition, and every citizen of Southern California should make the very best exhibit of their products, as well as attend the Exposition for the general knowledge to be obtained and a friendly meeting of citizens from all sections of the country. A number of distinguished citizens from abroad have signified their intention of being present at our Fair. We bespeak a full exhibition and a large attendance worthy of Southern California. FOR SALE. FROM 5000 TO 10,000 GALLONS OF WINE PIPES CHEAP. Inquire of F. SAINSKYAIN, San Bernardino, Cal. Correspondence Hints to Wine Makers. SAN FRANCISCO, October 3, 1880. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Continued exhausting work has prevented me these months from writing to you. But the most important period in the wine industry having begun, I deem it of interest to send you a few lines which may be of some little use to those of your readers who have anything to do with grapes. Yours is not a region of light, delicate wines. Nature has given your county hardy liquids that when properly made and developed would be not only indestructible, but, class by class, improve and be valuable for future cellar use. No doubt coming generations will, on the side of the wines rich in vinoity, from positions that possess conditions for their production, present wines that will be classed with tender and mild-tasting and smelling cold wines of more northerly counties of this State. The great aim, however, for the growers of your county and the neighboring ones ought to be the production of wines of the characteristics of Sherry, Madeira and Marsala-like wines, and the market wines Anglica and Sweet Muscat. Port-like wines of red grapes from your county and San Bernardino are now recognized to be among the best this State produces. A ripened Cucamonga Port of the Malvania grape will hold its place with really good Oporto Port. Could the color of the Ports of that grape be heightened, they would surely be perfect wines. The sweet wines of your region deserve the greatest attention on the part of the producer, as, if well made, those wines will preclude any attempt of the growers of Sonoma, Napa and other districts of first-class cold, dry wines to make Ports and Angelicas and sweet wines in general from their grapes not adapted to that object. As to making Sherry and Madeira-like wines from white grapes, it must be borne in mind that these wines require absolutely perfect fermentation. Sherry and Madeira in their crude, natural condition are thorny. San Francisco Market. Corrected weekly by Spess, Meade & Co., No. 316 and 318 Washington St. E.

Instead of the velocipede being considered a toy and plaything, it is put to practical use by travelers and business men. In describing a trip through England, by an American, the following language is used: "Clerks and business men were riding about the streets attending to their ordinary vocations. Bicycles were everywhere. Scores of men and boys were taking their evening exercise and ambling along as if horses and wagons had never been invented. In the old English city of Coventry everybody rides bicycles. They are used by business men in lieu of horses and buggies. One English Bicycle Club has a membership of three thousand." In our own country there are numerous similar clubs and their number is steadily increasing. They are found in all the older States, and the formation of bicycle clubs in California is even now a mooted project. among the best this State produces. A ripened Cucanonga Port of the Malvasia grape will hold its place with really good Oporto Port. Could the color of the Ports of that grape be heightened, they would surely be perfect wines. The sweet wines of your region deserve the greatest attention on the part of the producer, as, if well made, those wines will preclude any attempt of the growers of Sonoma, Napa and other districts of first-class cold, dry wines to make Ports and Angelicaes and sweet wines in general from their grapes not adapted to that object. As to making Sherry and Madeira-like wines from white grapes, it must be borne in mind that these wines require absolutely perfect fermentation. Sherry and Madeira in their crude, natural condition are thoroughly dry. The quality of the natural Sherry-like wine depends on the kind of grapes used. In the grape, all the elements of the wine are ready-made. A low proportion of the right kinds of acids with a high saccharine content, are the first conditions in the grape for a good must. Just as all the requirements for a good wine are in the grape—the fully ripe, healthy grape—so also are most of the defects of wines, contained in unhealthy, unripe grapes. Equal degree of maturity and soundness in each bunch should be looked for. Not one grape hurt by insect, mildew or rot should enter the press together with sound grapes. This is of far greater interest for the future of the wine trade than may be imagined by easy-going growers. Thorough maceration of the pulp of the grape is equally important and the pressing should therefore be a thorough one, eschewing the fracture of the pips, which would act with their tannin in the fermenting mass, causing a rough, objectionable taste. The main care should be given to the temperature of the fermenting room. A wine cannot be properly fermented—perfect wine cannot result from a fermentation if the temperature of the must be not kept constantly equal. Southern California wines, when not grown on calcareous soil, or soil that has a good proportion of lime, have an inclination to a taste in which alkali (potas- like) is discernible. Ordinary wines of your district possess more or less this same defect, and many a disproportion of acids and salts in dry wines of other parts of California may be ascribed to this great difficulty, which in part may provoke the stigma of an earthy or ground taste. Reflective growers may do more to utilize this hint than could be done by me, distant as I am from any vineyard here. Practical and observant growers will improve qualities and recognize what kinds of grapes are most adapted in each locality for a good wine. That from blending fine varieties of grapes in the press high class dry wines that will develop sherry-flavor and taste may be obtained, admits of no doubt, but it requires the intelligence of the grower to find out which kinds of vines serve that purpose best. The difficulties the crude young wines made by so many growers give in the subsequent treatment, would disenchant many a one of the growers. To ease the work of the dealer and do the best to raise the standard of our wines, by the greatest care in the vintage and fermenting season, is the bounden duty of the growers. One observation may yet be allowed. The abundance of Muscatel grapes in your county might eventually cause an over-stocking of dry Muscat wine, which cannot be easily utilized by the trade. For Sweet Muscats the outlet is likewise limited; while the Muscatel grape makes delicious and valuable raisins, and attention might be called to the utilization of part of the crop for that purpose. The following is a translation of an item which appears in the Ferro-Carril, published. Railroad News. San Diego, Oct. 5th.—The party surveying the line of railroad hence to the junction of the A. & P. R. R. at the Needles, comenced work to day. It is expected that the line will be finished to the San Bernardino line within a year from date. Chicago, Oct. 5th.—The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad Company has just completed 35 miles of a new road in New Mexico, from Socorro to San Marial, and expects to have enough completed by January 1st to make a connection with the Southern Pacific Railroad. Sleepers will then be run through from Kansas City, a distance of nearly twelve hundred miles, and other important connections will be completed.
