&C., Nv WIN
Our old friend Schoppman has again
arrived. He has been setting his In.
strumsnts for the last two weeks, and
says that We are In Utah. He Is prob
ably in with Brigham and the editor
Of the Salt Lake Nems.
We notice In the departures tho
names of J. s. Pitzer and W. w.
Bishop, both GU their way to Carson
to urge an early passage Of the bill to
remove the county seat from Hike to
Phoebe. Hope they will have q pleas
ant journey and get 1t through by the
10th Of January.
On Tuesday night the great question
was, who would get to Hike first, the
mail rider or tho unknown. Two to
one freely offered on the unknown.
The unknown and others were the pos
SCISSORS of an old title to some Of our
mines, aud General Conner was sup
posed to have a deed to the same
ground, left to 60 by the Hike mail on
Tuesday evening, and the race was for
who would get their deed recorded
first. We Judge that the unknown had
slightly the start and the best of the
race, as before the nail rider left he
was slightly show come you so"

DEATH FROM EXPOSURE A letter
received from Captain Rock, Of Bel
mont, dated December 20, states that
Ezra III. Van Decar, z. o.. II. L. OF
California. was found dead near Clo-
veniale. In Nyc county. Captain Rock
a v that Mr.. Van Decar arrived in
Belmont about tho 10th of November.
He had two horses on which he packed
his blankets, etc. About the lst Of
December he left for California, and
he appears to have got lost and WALL
dered through the western part of Nye
county until no got to Clovcrdale,
where It Is believed he died from cold.
His remains were taken to lone,
where they were inferred. 1t is sup
posed that deceased was somewhat de-
mented, for lie got lost twice last sum-
nier while going from Silver Peak to
Belmont. Mr.. Van Decar was long \
resident Of Auburn, Placer county,
California, and we believe was Judge
of the County Court there. He lived
In Austin in early times. We under
stand that he was possessed Of some
property Captain Rock thinks 1t was
landl In the State OF New York. and
our exchanges In that State would con-
fer q favor to his relatives by publish
ing a notice of his death.-Reese Rirer
Rereiie, cf Friday.
Judge Van Decar resided in Gold
Hill for several months In lsGS, and
was watchuian in the north works OF
the Yellow Jacket mine. When he
left here he started for the eastern part
OF the State. No doubt he died OF
heart disease and exposure. as he was
afflicted that way when he lived here.
He was a very bright and an exem-
plary Free Mason, and a good man.
He had a sister and other relatives
living at Wisconsin Hill. in Placer
county, California, some years ago.

Is not the boast Of Tom Fitch, that
the Radicals would turn over to their
successors a bankrupt State; no cent OF

proof that there was a general neces

We believe that the assertion that
Tom Fitch made such a boast Is false
and no man Of sense believes that the
author of the canard has the check to
claim that he al prove what he has

Raising and Storing Cabbages.

4 correspondent of the Washington
Star, who has been uniformly successful
in raising the largest and best cabbages,
and in keeping them safely, gives his
plan as follows:
Last year the writer succeeded in rails
ing cabbages of a size and perfection
surprising those of a series of years pre-
vious. The method adopted was as fol-
lows: As early in the spring as the
ground would allow, the plat designed for
csbbages was plOwed, raked and sown
with ruta baga turnip seed. These came
up, and when the season for transplant
ing csbbages came round, covered the
ground with dense growth of vegetation.
This was then spaded under, and holes
were dug for receiving the plants. Into
these holes manure was thrown, and also
into each a ruta baga that by chance had
remained over unused in the cellar, and
for which there seemed to be at that late
period no other use. Although the soil
was light and not well suited to cabbages,
the result was that the plants grew finely,
and formed dense, close heads in the fall,
VI size Is ldISG as COulu NC uCSu6u
The unusual growth of the cabbages is
attributed to the decay and decomposition
of the vegetable matter Of the turnips,
which, being of like nature with the
former: afforded to them just the material
needed to make them thrive.
Having succeeded in raising fine cab
bsgcs, the question arose how to preserve
them through the winter in a cellar so
dry that all previous attempts had failed,
few weeks having sutficed to shrink and
render worthless all that were stored in it.
As an experiment, some long, narrow
boxes were placed in the cellar, and in
these the cabbages as taken from the
ground were set, and soil from the garden
was then placed about their roots, upon
which water was afterwards sprinklcd.
The experiment has proved a success,
after period of three months since they
were store, some may be seen nearly as
green and fresh as when taken from the
ground.
A neighbor has succeeded in keeping
his cabbages equally as well, by digging
a trench in the bottom of his cellar, into
which the cabbages were put, and the
earth separated about their roots

To Increase the Flow Of MIX,

A writer who says his COW gives all
the milk that is wanted in family of
eight persons, and from which was made
260 pounds of butter in the year, gives
the following as his treatment: ''If you
desire TO get a large yield of milk, give
your COW, three times q day, water
slightly warm, slightly salted, in which
bran has been stirred, at the rate of one
quart to two gallons of water. You will
find, if you have not found this by daily
practice, that ycur cow will gain twenty
five per cent. Immediately under the eff
feet of it, and she will become SO attached
to the diet as to refuse to drink clear wa
ter unless very thirsty, but this mess she
will drink almost any time, and ask for
more. The amount of this drink is an
ordinary water pail full each time, morn
ing, noon and night Four hun bred
pounds of butter are often Cbtained from
good stock, and instances are mentioned
where the yield was even at higher fig
ure."

FOOD for Young rnrrors.

The Maryland Farmer tells US that
"the most suitable food for young tur-
keys from two to six days old is boiled
eggs. Insects Of al kinds and cooked
livers of animals are also good. A
cheap and excellent food for young poul-
try may also be found in fresh curds, pro-
vided the whey is drained out. 1t is not
until the turkey is two or three weeks old
that it viii naturally take to eating grain,
and then only very small seeds. 1t first
needs to build up digestive apparatus
before il can dispose of the kind of food
it eats in after life. When the young
chicks first manifest an appetite for
starchy food, be careful to furnish them
with sand or powdered brick, if they are
not on the ground, as it is necessary 10
swallow this with the first grain they eat.
