well-conditioned requiring to be fed but a short
time TO fit them for the shambles. Their mich
cows are the best the section affords, aud are well
cared for both in summer and winter and, in short,
no animal is suffered to lose ground, or 10 remain
stationary, that is susceptible of further improve
ment Doubtless this is the true course and we
find fully realized in the practices of these gentle
men the doctrine so often enforced, of cutivating
no more acres than can be well MANFRED, aud keep
ing no more stock than can be made constantly to
improve. In either case, if the acres begin to de-
terorate in produce the profits of labor are at once
diminished or if the stock begins TO fall away or,
if growing stock even to remain stationary, the
profit of feeding is at an end.
In closing this hurried notice we have to remark,
that these gentlemen have never been welded to old
customs simply ms such, but have ever been ready
for substantial improvements and probabya good
share of their us farmers, may be attributed
to the fact that for many years they have teen in
tegent and constant readers OF one or more agrl-
cultural publications. Indeed, the intelligent obyery
er, in travelling past these arms would not fe7 be
told of this fact; he would recognise it by unmisa-
kable general appearances.

The Mechanics Advantage.

Not many years ago, Polish lady of plebeun birth,
of exceeding beauty and accomplishments, won the
affection Of young nobleman, who having her con-
sent, solicited her from her father in marriage, and
Was refused. We may easily imagine the astonsh-
ment of the young nobleman.
Gam not, said he, 'of sufficient rank to aspire to
your daughters hand"
you are undoubtedly of the best blood of Poland
'Then having your daughters consent how could
/ expect a REFUSAL
'1lis sir, said the father, lis my only child, and
her happiness the chief concern of my life All the
possessions of fortune are precarious. What for
tune gives at her caprice she takes away. | see no
security for the independence and comfortable living
of n wife but one in a word, am resolved that no
shall be the husband of my daughter who is not
master Of n trade
The nobeman bowed his head and retired silent
ly
In year two AFTER the father was sitting at the
door, and saw approaching his cot wagons loaded
with baskets, and heading the cavacade, the noble
man in the dress of basket maker He was now
master of a trade, and brought the wares made by
his own hands for inspection, and certificate from
his master that he was master of his skill
The condition being fulfilled no farther obstacle
was opposed to the marriage. But the story is not
yet done The revolution came-fortunes were
plundered-and lords were scattered like chaff be-
fore the four winds of heaven. Kings became beg
gars-some of them feachers-and the noble Pole
supported his wife and her father in the infrmtes
Of age, by his basket making industry.
California Gold Region, 1t is said that fifteen
millions worth of gold have already been gathered
in the gold region of California The following is
extract of letter received by merchant of Bal
timore, dated
SAN Francesca, Aug. IA, 1913.
As 10 the richness of the mine were we TO set
down half the truth, it would be looked upon in 9TH
err countries "Sinbad" story or the history of
'Alladn's Lamp which required that the possessor
should but wish, and his wishes were accomplished
Many persons have culled in one day. of the finest
grade gold, from three to eight hundred dollars aud
for many days averaged SIS to $3.50.
Although this is not universal, yet the general n.y.
erage is we'll settled, that when man with his
banor basket does not easily gather $50 to $40 in
day, he moves TO another place, so that taking the
general average, including the time spent in moving
from place to place and in looking for better 'diggns'
we are of the opinion that we may safely set down
an ounce of pure gold, or SIG, per day to the man.
Surprising there are 1000 persons at work they will
add 10 the aggregate wealth of the territory about
1000 ounces, or 100000 day.

Yet every question, the discussion of which tends

more or less importance. If an animal is to be

the same way, and lead to the same results. Man
