Special to the Union. WOODLAND (Yolo Co.), April 30. -- Robert McCloud, Esparto nurseryman, member of prominent Yolo family, was brought to the Woodland sanitarium this afternoon in a very critical conditions. His skull Is known to be fractured, his arm is broken and his right ear torn from the head, as a result of an accident that happened in the bed of Cache creek, near Esparto, shortly before the noon hour.

McCloud was loading a gravel wagon. The team of horses started up and McCloud tripped on some brush as he tried to avert the runaway. Two wheels of the heavy wagon passed over his head. The wagon was half full of gravel and weighed a ton.

Ed Lewis of Esparto, working near by, heard the screams of McCloud. He ran to his assistance and then summoned Dr. C. E. Beebe from Woodband. The injured man was removed here without delay. His condition is critical.

Suit Over Almond Trees
Attorney C. W. Thomas of this city, says the Woodland. Cal. Democrat is preparing an answer for McCloud Brothers of Esparto, doing business under the firm name of the Esparto Nursery Company in the suit recently begun against them by the Oregon Nursery Company for $5,000 on one claim and $800 on a second for 30,000 almond trees, the delivery of which the Yolo firm stopped after contracting therefor. The McCloud brothers will claim that they learned that the trees to be shipped here were what is termed "frozen" or impaired, and they stopped delivery, not wanting to introduce poor trees in Yolo county.

FIVE ESCAPE MYSTERIOUS BULLET

Five Esparto men escaped injury last night when a bullet whizzed by them as they were chatting in the McCloud Nurseries downtown offices at Esparto. The bullet crashed through a plate-glass window and struck the McCloud safe. All of the men were struck by glass but none of them was hurt. In the party were Elbert McCloud, Roy Wal- lace, Roy Johns, Charles Chandon and Ira Coppock. That the bullet came from a re- volver in the possession of a group of boys who were sitting in an automo- bile across the street from the Mc- Cloud offices, is the theory of the Mc- Cloyds. The automobile and boys quickly disappeared. Constable James Nickell had this as his first case to solve. He was consulting Sheriff J. W. Monroe and Probation Officer A. A. Powers to- day. The latter will question the boys under suspicion.

Rocks and not a pistol bullet crushed through the window of the offices of the McCloud Nurseries at Esparto, two weeks ago, said the authorities today. Boys who were sitting in an automobile parked in front of the McCloud offices were responsible. It was accidental, but the lads became afraid and hurried away. The five men in the office believed that a bullet had torn its way through the window.

Burton Prune on Almond

Since our statement that Burton prunes on almond were growing in the Burton orchard at Vacalle, a good subscriber raised the question as to wether or not we had unearthed the whole truth. e believed that in the case of sweet almond seedlings. Mr. Burton had first worked the sweet to :ter almond and had then grafted the prune on s bitter almond wood.

To close up this point we wrote Mr. Burton in jard to it and received the following in reply: 'In the block of Burton prune trees you saw we ve about one hundred and fifty trees. They are seedling almond roots. The seedlings were obtained from McCloud Brothers of Esparto. When three years old they were grafted to Burton Prune and have not been double-worked. 'The season before we grafted the seedlings, they produced a few nuts. Some were sweet, some bitter. About twenty-five per cent (of the bitter and : sweet) made a perfect union; fifty per cent made a fairly good union, twenty per cent indifferent and five per cent a poor union. All are alive today and producing fruit.

"J- W. Mills, Farm Advisor of Solano County, grafted some Texas Prolific almond trees to Burton prunes and said they made a perfect union.

"It is a well known fact that many almond trees die after being grafted to French or Sugar prune. For the benefit of your subscribers who want to graft almond trees to the Burton or other prunes I would advise the following method:

"Trees eight or ten years old should be cut four to five feet from the ground, younger trees lower. All twigs eight to ten inches below the cut should be trimmed off and kept off. All growth below this should be left for at least three years. These branches should be topped off or bent over so they are kept below the grafts. After three years the prune and almond seem to become assimilated, then this growth may be cut away."—Pacific Rural Press, February 6, 1926.

"A few examples of the yield of small tracts near Woodland, Winters, Esparto and Capay Valley are given, for the past season of 1901, in proof of fact that the yield of Mr. HURST’s lot was not exceptional. John WRIGHT received $6,412 for twenty acres of Sultana grapes; J. E. MARTIN of Esparto, received $2.114 for four acres of almonds; A. L. McCLOUD received $1,500 for three acres of mixed table grapes;..."
