WEEKLY GAZETTE. County Official Paper. SATURDAY... DECEMBER 3, 1881 The trial of Gaiteau is drawing to a close, only the medical experts having yet to give their testimony. The prisoner continues his erratic and insolent behavior in the court room, and Judge Cox's failure to suppress him is evoking anything but favorable comment on the learned Judge. In his desire to allow the prisoner every freedom, he permits that individual altogether too much license. At a municipal election in Ireland, a suspect named Morgan, at present confined in jail, was elected Mayor of the town, defeating the present Mayor, who was a candidate for re-election. Some years ago, "Boss" McLaughlin of Chicago secured the election of one of his henchmen to an important municipal office while the candidate was traveling in Europe. Life at present in the South African diamond fields is not agreeable. Hundreds of miners who are unable to get work tramp from place to place, and finally lapse into beggary. Money is very scarce, and very few miners, even with nominal means, can leave the place. Fever abounds, and the hospitals are crowded. Vegetables have run up to starvation prices. Small cabbages are worth nearly a sovereign apiece, and potatoes fetch twenty-five cents per pound. San Diego must utilize its "back country"—wherever that is—right speedily or the question of providing provender for the citizens and animals of the bustling city will soon be a serious one. The butchers of that city have been for some time receiving their meat, slaughtered, from San Francisco, there not being enough cattle in the county to supply the demand. And now they are ORANGETHORPE ITEMS. The "Conjunction" has passed and the "end" is not yet; but we find ourselves moving on in the usual tenor of our way, little thinking of what may happen, when a like phenomena occurs forty-two thousand years hence! Thanksgiving came next in order to remind us that the years roll on, and showing too, how closely allied we are as a people, when even a day is appointed by our Chief Magistrate, that we may all in unison of heart give thanks for past blessings and invoke a continuance of them to One Common Father. How suggestive is a Nation's Thanksgiving? A very notable feature of the day with us was a "sumptuous dinner" at the house of a friend, where with a few other invited guests a most enjoyable day was passed. The children too, will not soon forget it, as nothing was left undone by our host and hostess that would in any wise tend to make it a happy day to them, and doubleless all returned to their homes, wishing in their hearts it would be Thanksgiving "all the year round." Even the five-months old baby laughed and cooed as if in full assurance that she too was under the protecting care and guidance of this one God whom we should all love to serve, and with us came in for a share of these good things of earth. In a late issue of your paper among the real estate transfers we note the sale of twenty acres of land in our district, and it is encouraging to know the purchase was made by parties who, by long years of experience and close observation, are convinced as to where a safe investment may be made. Our ditch is now complete, and farmers are beginning with a zost to prepare for the coming crop. Improvements which began in the building of substantial board fences some months ago, are continued in the erection of new houses, spacious barns and lofty windmills, and with such evidences of a thriving and prosperous people, "new comers" cannot fail to see it will be much to their interest to cast their lot with us in Hough made some very early rain interfered so arrangements, and somehow spoiled in drying.

The butchers of that city have been for some time receiving their meat, slaughtered, from San Francisco, there not being enough cattle in the county to supply the demand. And now they are paying $25 per ton for hay imported from abroad. Even water must be getting scarce, as the milkmen publish a notice that milk will be sold hereafter at 50 cents per gallon. A series of careful experiments are being made at the State University with a view to ascertain the essential qualities of the best grapes grown in California, and to determine the conditions of temperature and treatment most favorable for the production of wine from given grapes. The wines are fermented at the University, and the produce of the following kinds of grapes is being analyzed and treated: White and Golden Chasselas, Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Mission Black Prince, Fiberzagos, Matario and Le Noir. SNEEZING, hitherto considered a harmless action, has all at once developed into a habit attended with no small danger. It was a propensity to sneeze long and loud which was one of the chief causes of the rupture between Miss Dixon and the Faculty of the Normal School, and which resulted in the expulsion of the young lady from the school and the subsequent multing of Prof. Allen in $1000 damages. And it is only a few days since A. O'Connell, of Helena, Montana, after indulging in a hearty sneeze, discovered that he had fractured a rib! The anti-Semitic prejudices of the people of Odessa have developed into sheer madness. On Monday last the actress, Sara Bernhardt, was followed by a hooting, howling mob as she was driving home from the theatre, and her carriage was stoned. They also stoned the house at which she was stopping and stopped the performances at the theatre. It was not the lax morals of the Bernhardt which caused the people of Odessa to act in that outrageous way. It was because they had discovered that the actress was of Jewish descent. The opinion seems to be generally entertained that Postmaster-General James is the most efficient officer in the Cabinet. Thoroughly familiar with the details of the service, and having energy and vitality enough to successfully cope with the multifarious duties of his office, he has accomplished more in the way of reform than any of his predecessors.

Thoroughly familiar with the details of the service, and having energy and vitality enough to successfully cope with the multifarious duties of his office, he has accomplished more in the way of reform than any of his predecessors. It is interesting to know that Mr. James is of the opinion that in three years at most the reduction of letter postage from three to two cents will be possible. This could be accomplished by proper economies and by ceasing to load down the mails with bulky and unprofitable third and fourth class matter. FURTHER particulars of the sale of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company to Villard, is to the effect that Goodall, Perkins & Co., held 9200 shares and bought 1300 more, thus obtaining a controlling interest, which they sold to Villard. The sale includes everything belonging to the company, not excepting the San Luis Obispo and Santa Maria Railroad, and including even the new steamship now being built for the company in the East, and on which the sum of $250,000 has been paid. The capital stock of the company is $2,000,000. The Directors, after the private sale of the controlling interest, were notified that their stock would be bought at $87 50 a share, less a commission to Goodall, Perkins & Co. Three Chinese lepers were discovered in a small shanty near the San Jose depot, and adjoining the place where almost all the washing done by Chinamen in San Jose is performed. These unfortunates have been secluded there for some time, one of them three years. How they have subsisted unaided is a mystery. One of them, although in an advanced stage of the disease, has been in the habit of begging through the streets at night. This shanty has been used by the Chinamen of San Jose as a sort of resort for lepers, and report says that during the period of its existence many of these unfortunates have stopped there until removed by death or otherwise. ORANGE ITEMS. Judging from the great demand for work horses at present, the farmers expect to "spread themselves" by and by. Mr. Ed. Honey was awarded the contract for carrying the Orange mail at $150 per year. Mr. Henry Gardiner assumed his duties as Secretary of the S. A. V. I. Co., on last Saturday. Mr. R. L. Crowder is having his store-room painted both inside and out. Nine-tenths of the people here are anxiously waiting for him to lay in another stock of goods. Messrs. Joplin and Crawley of Belle Canyon were in town yesterday. Thanksgiving Day was observed by us more than usual this year. Both churches united in holding services in the Presbyterian Church. Rev. Mr. Halliday delivered the sermon, after which the congregation wended their way to the Anderson House, where they were met by several of the members of the Ladies Aid Society, and invited to seat themselves at some one of the well laden tables and "eat, drink and be merry." Time prevents me from mentioning the numerous "happenstances" of the day, but suffice it to say that at its close the society's purse contained over one hundred dollars more than it did in the morning. GARDEN GROVE ITEMS. Items of public interest are few in our community. We have not participated in the boom that seems to prevail in our county. Being somewhat away from the railroad and having no agent at work, land sells slowly. Two brothers of Mr. Chaffee who arrived lately have bought 60 acres from Mr. McCrindle; price thirty dollars per acre. Everyone considers this a very reasonable price for the land; in fact quite a bargain. The purchasers intend to put up some fine dwellings and other improvements. The crop of grapes here was very good and Messrs. Chaffee, Nelson, Denling and Hough made some very fine raisins, but the early rain interfered somewhat with their arrangements, and some of the grapes were spoiled in drying. The land here is well adapted to grapes and apricots. We have in this neighborhood over a thousand apricot trees and several hundred will be planted this fall. Our social for the benefit of the Sunday school was a success, and netted about twenty dollars for the Sunday school fund. The first edition of the Garden Grove Gem was read and the editress deserves great praise for the amount of work and ability displayed in its columns. Horses seem to be in great demand; several parties have been trying to buy horses for some time without success. Mrs. C. B. Hitchcock has gone to Illinois to assist her parents in making arrangements to come to California. She writes that although she has been there but one week she is anxious and ready to return to Los Angeles county rather than remain there and freeze. The Garden Grove Store is doing a fine business. Mr. Howe keeps a model country store, and is an accommodating and agreeable merchant to trade with. A VIGOROUS DISCLAIMER. EDITOR GAZETTE: Seeing that the Secretary of the Cajon Irrigation Company was "excoriated" in the last issue of the Gazette by "Y," who is a little off this time in his bearings in supposing that "X," the Express correspondent, are one and the same. "Y" evidently has no particular affection for the Cajon Irrigation Company or its Secretary. A more venomous, malicious, slanderous and false communication I have never seen put together; but then "Y" was serving his master's wish when he penned his mercenary communication. I have been agent and correspondent for the San Francisco Examiner for the last six months, but emphatically deny that I ever wrote a single line in derogation of Anaheim, or any of its citizens. I most emphatically deny that I wrote, or ber. Among many reasons for long spike pruning the following ones appear conclusive: The head of the vine is more open to light and air during its coming growth and the maturing of the fruit. The buds nearest the outer end of the spike first expand, while those nearest the old wood remain dormant. An untimely frost may kill the first expanded buds while the dormant ones will not be injured, but will subsequently put forth and give a good vintage. Summer pruning is a barbarity. It deprives the growing or maturing fruit of their agents (the leaves on the extremities of the vines), which nature has provided for its perfect growth and ripening. The viner who sees a necessity for and practices Summer pruning only confesses that his vineyard was unskilfully pruned at the last pruning season. If a due number of fruit buds are left on a vine at the Winter pruning, there will not be any seeming necessity for Summer pruning. The grape-grower who year after year, so prunes his vines that the overgrowth of their branches impedes the growth or the perfect ripening of their fruit should know that the fault is to be found at his own door. He should also know that all the surplus wood and leaves made by the branches of his vines, and which in many cases have made his vineyard an impenetrable ticket during the Summer, and which have been a nuisance in picking time, has been grown by his vines at the expense of the fruit, both in quantity and quality. The forces of the vine and the material which it gathered from the soil and the atmosphere, instead of being wasted in the production of surplus branches, would have been used in the growth and maturing of fruit if the pruner had not in his ignorance removed too many of the fruit buds. I do not hesitate in expressing the opinion that since the time of my first acquaintance with the vineyards of the southern part of California, which embraces a period of fifty years, their fruit product has been less than one-half of what it should and would have had they been tilled and pruned by skillful and careful husbandmen. The missionary Fathers who planted and managed the first and nearly all of the vineyards of California for many years, and other viners who followed their example, pruned their vineyards with considerable skill, but the neglect, or want of means for their proper tillage, prevented the vines from giving such an abundance of fruit as the soil and climate proffered. The product of their vines under the treatment they received was greater than the Fathers had ever known in any part of Spain or of Europe, and they were satisfied. Since the advent of French, German and American viners, the tillage has generally "I evidently has no particular affection for the Cajon Irrigation Company or its Secretary. A more venomous, malicious, slanderous and false communication I have never seen put together; but then "Y" was serving his master's wish when he penned his mercenary communication. I have been agent and correspondent for the San Francisco Eraminer for the last six months, but emphatically deny that I ever wrote a single line in derogation of Anaheim, or any of its citizens. I most emphatically deny that I wrote, or knew of the article in the Express signed "X" being written, till I saw mention of it in the Gazette. Neither do I know, or even have any idea, who wrote it. I would recommend "Y" to take some of his own anti-bilious, anti-dyspeptic medicine," so that his choler may not in the future run away with his veracity. As far as I know everybody is happy except "Y," who neither owns an acre of land nor a share of stock in the Cajon Irrigation Company, and is unable to buy either one or the other. The Cajon Irrigation Company has had its embarrassments, but it is at last a success, and the stockholders are contented and happy; so is the Secretary. Hoping that "Y" feels relieved since he has got rid of his superfluous bile. He had better guess again, and it is hoped that he will depart as soon as possible from his legitimate sphere of Billingsgate, abuse, falsehood and double-dealing and become a decent man. W. M. McFADDEN, Secretary of Cajon Irrigation Co. Fulton Wells, Nov. 28th, 1881. PRUNING VINES. J. J. Warner, in "Express." The best mode of pruning standard grape vines cannot be attained without some artistic taste and scientific knowledge, aided by good judgment, close observation and practical experience. Devoid of these qualifications, the pruner will not form a head to the vine which will combine beauty and utility. Without a knowledge of vegetable physiology, he is like the Arab on the desert who has neither the wind nor the celestial orbs to guide him in his trackless path. It is difficult, if not impracticable, to prune the vines of a vineyard (unless they are of some diminutive variety) so as to form a properly-shaped head without diminishing the full fruit-producing powers of each vine if they are planted less than eight feet apart. In the judgment of the writer, after many years of observation of vineyards in California, a vineyard of Mission vines planted eight or even ten feet apart is worth more per acre than if planted six feet or less apart. Between the vines a little open ground warmed by the sun will reflect the heat and greatly assist ventilation by the constantly ascending air which will permeate every part of the head and add materially to the healthy growth of the vine and to the more years, their fruit product has been less than one-half of what it should and would have been had they been tilled and pruned by skillful and careful husbandmen. The missionary Fathers who planted and managed the first and nearly all of the vineyards of California for many years, and other viniers who followed their example, pruned their vineyards with considerable skill, but the neglect, or want of means for their proper tillage, prevented the vines from giving such an abundance of fruit as the soil and climate proffered. The product of their vines under the treatment they received was greater than the Fathers had ever known in any part of Spain or of Europe, and they were satisfied. Since the advent of French, German and American viners, the tillage has generally been good and the growth of the vines stimulated thereby; but the French and German viniers brought with them, or adopted, a style of pruning which, in great measure, neutralized the good effects of the tillage. They so pruned the vine that in its pruned condition it more resembled a pitchmop with the handle stuck in the ground than it dul a graceful head of that plant the juice of the fruit of which glaidens gods and men. The head of a vine formed by this barbarous mode of pruning, instead of having branches in the midst of which Venus and Apollo would delight to meet and inhale the balmy air of early morning or receive the fanning of the evening breeze, resembles a monstrously knot stuck full with rusty iron spikes. It is not even a caricature of a head, but an abortion which, instead of wooing the gods, would drive Bacchus himself into the wilderness. The pruning of vines in the first, second and third years after the planting should have for its object the greatest growth of their branches and the upright form of their stocks. A symmetrical and very pretty head to a vine, and one which combines productivity with facility of pruning in all subsequent years, can be formed by having the one stock separated into three about a foot or eighteen inches from the ground, and each of these three again separated into three about a foot above the lower forks. This mode of forming the head may be continued until the vine in its pruned state presents the form of a well-trained dwarf tree. Any of the three branches which have been previously left can be removed at any subsequent pruning if it should become necessary in order to preserve the symmetry or openness of the head, without injury to the vine. Respecting the best time to prune, I do not think it makes much difference whether a vineyard in Los Angeles is pruned in the early part of December or the latter part of February. It there is danger of injury from frosts in the Spring it will be prudent to delay the pruning even until the buds at the extremities of the branches have opened into leaves. The flow of sap or bleeding which frequently attends late pruning need not alarm the viner, as this bleeding is no more dangerous to the vine than is a little bloodletting to an animal organization.

In the judgment of the writer, after many years of observation of vineyards in California, a vineyard of Mission vines planted eight or even ten feet apart is worth more per acre than if planted six feet or less apart. Between the vines, a little open ground warmed by the sun will reflect the heat and greatly assist ventilation by the constantly ascending air which will permeate every part of the head and add materially to the healthy growth of the vine and to the more perfect development of the best properties of the fruit. The vine pruner should ever keep in mind that nature endeavors to preserve a perfect equilibrium in the growth of the roots and branches of perennial plants. The growth of either depends upon the power of the other to furnish the requisite material. The growth of fruit upon a tree, (and the vine is of the same nature as a tree), necessarily impedes the growth of both branches and roots. In this is to be found the reason why many fruit trees take on the habit of biennial bearing. A comely and well shaped head, sufficiently open to give free circulation of the air through it, and to permit the rays of light to reach all its parts, is of primary consideration. When about to prune a vine, and having considered how he can improve the shape of the head, the pruner should first determine whether in the growth of the preceding season there was a redundancy or deficiency in the growth of its branches. If he finds the former to have been the case, he will govern his pruning so as to leave a sufficient number of fruit buds to prevent a like growth the coming season. If the latter was the case, he will leave a less number of fruit buds, so as to cause a greater growth of branches. Having determined the number of fruit-producing buds which the vine can sustain, the pruner will then consider whether any, or how many, of the old branches require removal to perfect the shape and symmetrical proportions of the head. If the condition of the head will permit him to choose between leaving two or four fruit buds upon each spike, he should choose the latter num- Wm. Schneider, convicted of the murder of R. C.
