This morning, about 6 o'clock, a
most desperate affair occurred about
one mile from this quiet town, result
ing in the shooting and killing of a
yong man by his sister The family is
known as the Willis family, and the
father, Wyatt Willis, was absent from
home at the time Of the murder 1t

desperate character began, for some
cause, to whipand beat one of his young
sisters, when an Older sister, Mary in
terfered, and demanded that he should
desist, He swore that if he did not
cease interference he would kill her,
and, suiting the action to the word, he
seized an axe and drove her into the
house. Whcreupon she grasped shot
gun near by, and, leveling il ut him,
killing him instantly. The gun was
very heavily charged, and the whole
charge took effect in his neck and side
Of his face, there being only little
more than the guns length between
them The sister says she did not in
tend 10 kill her brother, but only to
frighten him and keep him at bay, as
she did not know that the gun was
loaded When she realized what she
had done she became frantic, and de-
clared that she would kill herself

Mr.. Curtis, before the Farmers Club,
SAYS: " Hogs can be wintered on clover

without any meal or bran being added"
Cattle reducing this to pulp by
mastication, get a similar effect. We
know leading farmers who keep their
diaries during the winter on clover hay

they 20 into pasture strong and in good
flesh, giving large yield Of milk at the

demonstrated yearly, why are we feed

or disregard early cutting, fearing we

green stage. 1t is more an excuse than
ANYTHING else. Others 10 it, cut earl

expedite the drying. By cutting the
first crop (clover) early, when just in
blossom, the second crop may cut, and
in good time, leaving time enough for
an after growth for protection.
Here are two crops; and as clover can

is time for that now. What we need is
testing, and testing fairly. If the best

why may we not all have it? Clover is
the farmers plant of profit. Those en-.

An Extensive Farmer.

The Pacific Rural Press says As an in.
dex to the extent Of agricultural produc.
lions of our valley, we need only state
that we have one farmer in our midst,
whose bill Of expense for the one item
of sacks alone, in which to sack his
crop of the present year, is estimated
to be upwards of $4,000. The unpre-
tending, plain citizen is John Mitchell,
ESQ.,, OF our county (Napa), who has
sown to grain this present year, on his
own lands, $4,000 acres. The question
naturally presents itself-is not Mr..
Mitchell the greatest wheat producer in
the world? If not, where is the man
who excels him? If there can be any
one individual farmer found who sur
passes him, we believe that next year
MIR. Mitchell would 60 him many acres
