California Farming.

Our readers will doubtless be interested
with the following accounts of farming in
California, conducted ON large scale !;
and some valuable hints may be obtained
by farmers in the eastern portion of the
Union, from the thorough and systematic
arrangements. We copy from the Re-
port of the Committee to visit Farms, &C.,
appointed by the California Agricultural
Society, made to the Society last autumn,
as given in the California Farmer.
From Sacramento we rode to the farm
of ]. c. DAVIS, ESQ.,, about twelve miles
west of that city, on the Puto creek
This farm took the first premium of your
Society last year, and Mr.. Davis has been
incessant in his efforts in improving his
stC ok, orchards, buildings, and indeed ev-
cry thing connected with his extensive
premises. His farm contains about 5000
acres of land-l000 enclosed by good
fence. The water is raised by steam
from the bed of the creek, in such guam
titles as to enable him to irrigate large
portion of his lands. He has a large
peach orchard, and an extensive variety
of other fruit trees, besides several thou
sand grape vines, which are producing
very abundantly this year. His barns,
stables, corrals and arrangements for stock
are all on an extensive scale, and admi-
rably arranged for the purposes ended.
Mr.. Davis has 5000 head of cattle and
about the same number of sheep. He is
using every effort to improve the quality
of his stock by introducing the best breeds
and by this means the value of his stock
is rapidly increasing every year. He ha:
raised this year 400 hundred acres of
wheat and barley, which has yielded over
80 bushels to the acre. He has about l5C
head of horses, some of which are OF a
superior quality.
About three miles farther of the Pu.o
is the extensive farming establishment Of
General Hutchinson and c. Z. Green
They have 1900 acres of land enclosed
with good fence, besides large tract ol
| unenclosed adjoining. One thousand acres
of wheat and barley have been harvested
this season, and notwithstanding the ex
tremely dry summer which has causeC
such extensive failures of the cereal crop
in other parts Of the State, the crops OF
this farm have been comparatively good
