HoNE-GRowN HoPs.-Lorenz & Haglemar
of the Bavaria Brewery, have lately made
"brewing " from hops grown in the Weavervll
basin. Those who have tasted the Lager bee
made from them pronounce it an improvement
on tha! made from imported hops. The favor {
The beer is richer and more lively, and a les
quantity Of hops is required. We hope The pro
prietors will next year try the experiment of rails
ing their own hops. believing that it can be don,
successfully. Any amount OF unemployed lane
suitable for growing hops may be found In The
vicinity, and thousand hop roots can be had
for mere song.
While on this subject we remember being told
some months since by Mr.. C. Meckel, one of the
proprietors Of the North Fork Brewery, that he
last year purchased the hop crop of Mr.. Joseph
McGillivary, on Trinity river, and had satisfied
himself that better article of beer could be
made from home raised hops, and that he intend
ed purchasing Mr.. McGlliyarys crop the present
year. II hops Of better quality can be raised
at home, why send abroad for them.

day to the hand, with ground enough TO employ
the owners for ten years to come. They are
working in what is evidently an old river chan
mel, notwithstanding its elevated location. II
is easily worked, being composed of a soft de-
poslt OF clay and washed gravel. One great in
convenience in working the claim is the scarcity
OF wafer and the fact that none has as vet been
brought sufficiently high to work the claim the
usual way The dirt is drlted and wheeled to
the ditch OF Phillips j. Co., some distance be-
low, where 1t is passed through the sluices If
water could be had on the surface of the claim,
$50 day, to the hand. would be easily realized
SOCIAL REUN1oN.-By reference to advertise
ment elsewhere, it viii be seen that the GYM
nastic Club will give grand performance and
