WHEAT AND OATs.-In a recent con-
versation with Paoli Lathrop, Esq, Of
South Hadley Falls, he stated to us that
he had derived great advantage from
sowing spring wheat and oats together
the crop To b0 asota so7 llsssse feea whole
or ground. He stated that the wheat
kept the oats from falling, by which
means they filled better, and that the
mixed crop gave as many bushels as
would have been obtained of oats. while
the value was considerably greater. The
proportion of seed is one-third wheat and
two-thirds oats--three bushels of the
mixture to the acre.-BoSton Caltiuator.

PAINTING FARMING IMPLEMENTS. A
great saving may be made by keeping
implements constantly under shelter when
not in use. But this is nearly impossi-
bic, and besides, many of them must of
necessity be exposed, during their en-
ployment, to many days of hot sun and
occasional showers. 1t is therefore very
important to keep them well painted. -
As general average they will last twice
as long by the protection of coat of
paint, renewed as it is worn off.
A cheap material as coating for many
kinds Of farming implements is boiled

The County Treasurer Matter.

The complicated affairs connected with the
office of County Treasurer, has not vet been
settled On Saturday last peremptory man.
damus was issued to S. L. Magec, former
Treasurer, to deliver up the books ETC., be-
longing to the office, to which he appealed,
and filed his bond. An attachment was then
issued for him, returnable at jackson on Mon
day last, which he answered, that no contempt
was intended, believing his bond stayed pro-
ceedings. A nominal fine was placed upon
him, and the Judge decided there could be no
stay, but that the books and papers must be
delivered up at once. He delivered up a por-
ton of the books, and about 81 800, little
over Sl0o of which belonged to the general
fund. Affidavits were then made of his nom
compliance, after which he went to Jackson
and promised to comply. Wednesday he de-
livcred up large quantity of licenses, but
the amount fell short of what he was charged
about 81 300. According to an affidavit of N
l.. Broughton, of the amount the Treasurer
told him WAS collected in August and Septem-
Der, he is still owing some 1000.
4 writ of attachment was issued against
Magee, returnable at Jackson on Friday
What further has been done, we are unable
to say-but think the mystery is in q fair way
to be compl. .tely unraveled.

ROAD TMPRovENENT.-We notice a number
of prospect holes near the edge of the road
passing out east of town, have been filled up
during the present week, which will add great
ly to the safety of locomotion on dark rainy
nights. The Union Ditch Company are en-
gagged near the same place in excavating a
deep c-t, in order to lead their ditch entirely
above the road. The loose dirt is being
wheeled into the low places in the road, thus
grading and greatly improving it. There are
several prospect holes on the edge of the road
between town and the "Gold Hill House" I"
which 1t would be well for the Oversccr to at
tend to before the rainy season sets in. Some
thing should also be done to improve the road
Immediately below town, as it is almost i'm
possible for teams to get along in wet weather
on account of deep mud holes that have been
formed there every winter for the last four or
five years.

Road from Cave City to the Big Trees

The citizens Of Cave City have been for some
time engaged constructing wagon road from
that place to the Big Trees. This is a worthy
enterprise. as it will shorten the distance very
much, from the Big Trees to Cave CITY, San
AndreaS and other places on the west Here
tofore the citizens of Cave City and vicinity,
have depended almost entirely upon their own
taking. With a hearty good will they put
their shoulders to the wheel and pushed the
work along. and now, rs operations have been
suspended on the main road across the noun
t:lins it would be well for all persons who
feel an interest in opening of the new road, to
lend their assistance TO the people of Cave
City. and help drive the work to completion
The following in relation to the route, &c
We copy from the Caiaveras Chronicle:
'Thc people of Cave City have at length
determined to help themselves to share of
the advantages to be derived from connection
with one of the great immigrant thoroughfarcs,
and engaged in opening q road from
that place to intersect the immigrant road at
the Big Trees. The distance is only thirteen
and a half miles, over practicable route. 1t
is divided into six sections, upon three of
which parties are now at work and upon the
other three, work will be commenced AS soon
the subscriptions will warrant it. This
route reduces the distance from San Andreas
to the Big Trees seventeen miles, which very
important circumstance will insure to it a
large amount of travel to and from Carson
Valley. There is already a good wagon road
from Cave City to San Andreas, connecting
with the stage road to Stockton.
The Directors request the citizens of other
portions of the county to lend them helping
hand to complete the enterprise Whatever
benefits one section of the county confcrs also
an indirect benefit upon the whole, therefore
it would be well to give this new enterprise
some substantial aid.
The following gentlemen have been appoint

ton of the road +. F. Walker, j. S. Smith,
