The marriage of Miss Kittie Perkiu
son and Charles C. Carrig at Platte

of witnessing. The ceremony was per
formed at the St. Joseph's church, by

Father Stanislaus and Rev. Father
James. The young ladies Sodality, of
which the bride was a member, were in
attendance dressed all in white with
veils. Miss Katie Carrig was brides
maid and E. Perkinson groomsman, the
four pages being the little twins of
Mr. and Mrs. James H. Lynch and
Mr. and Mrs. P. Hays, all dressed
in white and wearing wreaths of
flowers on their heads. After the cere

for the bride's parents where breakfast
was served. In the evening a reception

A. E. Phinney gives us some inter
esting notes of his winter in California.
He is engaged with his son, M. E., in
the business of raising and selling nur
sery stock A. E. being salesman here
in summer, and in California in the win
ter. M. E. has an orange farm of ten
acres, nine miles from San Diego in the
Sweet Water valley, for which, eighteen
months ago he paid $250 an acre. He
has a hot house 80x140 feet and a green
house 70x20, well filled with salable
plants, etc. Water is piped to the
ground so that every portion of it can
be supplied any hour with any needed
quantity. The farm is set to orange and
lemon trees, for permanent nse, ami
while these are maturing the vacant
spaces are utilized for growing orange
and lemon trees as nursery 6tock, for
which there is a brisk demand. Earl
got his start in Columbus, selling nur
sery stock, and finds the same business
profitable there, selling last winter
nearly 87,000 worth. W. Higgins, who
has a farm of ten acres adjoining
Phinney's, sold bis last crop of oranges,
on tbe trees, for SAOO. Hit farm is
worth SlOOjOOO, and he has one lemon
tree eighteen years old.the limbs literally
lying down to the ground, that measures
around the tree at the extremities of the
limbs, seventy feet nnd from which has
been picked the" last year sixty boxes of
marketable lemons. He knows of one
limb that has on it now 214 marketable
lemons. The towns of California are
now dull, but the country is settling up.
Fruit raising is the great industry of
southern California. He thinks this
year will see the biggest crop of apricots
and peaches ever raised on the coast.
Gu.-iva. a kind of plum, is coming into
great favor. The English walnut is per
haps the best investment to make. In
Cohone valley the rasin grape is raised
in great abundance, and brings the
highest price of any raisins sold in the
New York market. Apples are not a
success on the coast, but are, at the foot
hills. Oranges ripe now, if left in the
trees, will be just as good one year from
now. Since last Xoremlier he could go
out any time and pick a mess of straw
berries. A cabbage plant cut off at the
head will grow another head and so on
to four or five heads. -A tomato plant,
five years old, is constantly bearing to
matoes. Farmers can raise one crop a
year without irrigation. Mr. Mullen at
National City is fat and hearty and well
pleased with the country. John Rout
son sends regards to old friends. Mr.
Schutte at Carlsbad, looked well the
Thursday before Mr. P. left there. Mr.
Libby, formerly of Creston, this county,
has bought an interest in Carlsbad and
improvements are leing made. Mr.
Phinney says that his son Earl has re
cently employed two experienced gar
deners from England, and is making
arrangements for an extensive business.

plowed under and planted to corn or
flax.
The late advance in the corn market
