Fourteen years ago this spring Mr..
L. j. Rose. citizen--of Van Buren,
county, Iowa, started to California
with drove Of fine cattle and horses.
1t being the year Of the noted Mormon
war, he deemed it best to keep away
from the Salt Lake route, and took
what was then known as the 35th par
allel route. When some distance into
the Indian country his party were at
tackled by Indians, IA of them killed
and Mr.. Rose lost all his stock. Moth
ing dannted, he pushed on with his
family to Santa Fe, New Mexico,
where he rented hotel, which he
kept for one year, and cleared $l4.OOO
in cash.. Not liking>~t the society of
Santa Fe, he pulled up stakes and
went to Lower California, where he
purchased rancho of 2,OO0 acres, pay
ing cash down for it, $1,000 of which
he had to borrow, at high rate Of in
terest. But having faith in hiss own
energy he proceeded to improve his
place, and to-day he has one OF the
most magnificent plantations in the
world. One hundred and fifty acres
of splendid grapes, GO acres Of bear
ing orange trees, besides groves Of
lines, lemons, olives, almonds, ponce
GRANTEES, peaches, apric0ts, walnuts,
etc. adorn the place, and bear fruit
both pleasant to the eye and taste.
From Is to Is hands, comprised of
Americans, Indians and Cinnamon,
are kept constantly employed, and Mr..
Rose tells us that none are more faith
fal, nor as honest, as John Chinaman.
Last year Mr.. Rose produced 1900
gallons OF grape handy, and 10000
gallons Of wine, and such is the repu-
tation Of these articles tbat they are
kept for sale by every prominent drug
house throughout both the Eastern and
Western States. p
The reputation Of Mr.. Rose as
wine producer is becoming co-exten-
sive with the country, and good
many men Of capital but with less
energy and foresight, arc now endeav-
oring to get possession Of his coveted
premises, which he has appropriately
named Sunny Slope, and only recently
be had an offer Of 4125, 0N FOR his plan
tstion. Mr.. Rose is now on visit to
his friends in this and Van Buren,
county, and stopped to-day in our city |
to sec Taylor, Blale y Co., who are
hia Wholesale assnts et this place.

We pick up our knowledge as the
fowl picks up the corna grain at a
time.
One pound OF potatoes carefully cut
will make one hundred sets. These
will plant "a hundred hills that should
raise from two to three bushels.
Soak beet and carrot seed from
twelve to twenty-four hours before
sowing. This forwards termination
and helps them to eome,up as quickly
as weeds. -
Thin plants and vegetables sufii-
GENTLY; they must have room accord
ing to size. ~
Peas and corn may be forwarded by
soaking the seed. Keep damp and
warm. DO not plant peas twice on
the same ground the same OF follow
ing season.
Weeds should be collected and re-
moved from the ground after being
pulled or hoed up, they often root and
grow. The best way is to bnrn them,
root and branch.
Tomato plants when set ii over
three inches tall should be laid down
and covered except a few inches of the
top: they will give better results.
Keep the ground rich.
Topdress the ground which pump
kins and squash run over.
Squash, cucumber, melon and pump
kin seed put in hills and covered will
be forwarded by carefully pouring on
boiling water and turning over them q
box or vessel to keep the heat in. 1t
is especially good in late planting.
Eternal vigilance is the price of veg
etables.
The thumb and finger is the best
squash bug" trap yet known. Dust
often with sulphur, air-slacked lime or
plaster; use on cabbage and turnip to
protect from fieas.
Begin in season to make your gar
den and be seasonable in all your OPP
erations.

Plants do not eat manure.st they drink

Drop few tomato seed with peas,
sMhen the peas are removed thin to
four feet apart; they will come on
rapidly and make excellent late toma-
toes.
Plant beets rather thickly: those la
ken out whep thinning make excellent
greens.

work backward to bid showing foot

One large, strong eye left on potato
sets throws up one strong stalk and
gives large potatoes. Several stalks
