He rakes the city council, fore and aft, for Illegal

But now when paper that has been and is, violent

Alfalfa and Clover.

1t is very generally conceded that
alfalfa will take the first rank among
our foliage plants, producing larger
quantity per acre than any other of the
cultivated clovers or grasses, and MAX
ing fair quantity. of hay. Its won
derful prOductiveness coupled with It's
power OF remaining green and succu-
lent, whilst all other forage plants are
withered and dried for lack of rain, for
four or five months of summer, will
make it favorite feed with the Cali
fornia stock grower, summer and
winter.
Its habit of sending its root down to
moisture in any soil in which il gets a
hold renders its cultivation a success
uDon lands so high and dry that most
of our cultivated grasses and even the
favorite red clover of the Eastern
States would be completely dried out.
But the red clover makes q better
green food for auy animal than alfalfa
and a letter hay; it is the next most
productive of our forage plants to al
falfa, and on suitable soils will be
found the most profitable of all.-Pa-

To keep sweet potatoes through the

which has been thoroughly heated, so
rs to drive out all the moistures, and
then set them in q warm, dry place.
Instances have been known where
they have been kept for two years,

rom the San Francisco cbron;cl,


A few days ago, and there was a
dish-washer named George Woodruff,
employed at the California restaurant,
on Montgomery street-a dirty, greasy,
grimy cuss, with scarcely cent in his
pocket or hope in the world to-day he
is milliOnaire-a six millionaire, in
fact. One day, while reading G morn
ing paper, his attention was attracted
to an advertisement hesded Person
al" stating that one of his name would
find it to his advantage to address q
certain party in New York, The name
was familiar to him, and he concluded
to answer'the advertisement. He did
so, giving his address, and i'm due time
he received letter stating that his
uncle had died in New York, leaving
property to the amount of $4,000, 600,
which the deceased had willed 10 him.
He was astounded, and could hardly
believe that the news was true until it
was confirmed. Upon its confirms
ton he cast off his greasy clothes, and
forsaking the sacred precincts of the
kitchen, he donned new raiment and
departed for his estate i'm New York, a
richer if not better man. There is
new dish-washer at the California
now, and he is waiting for a rich and
forgotten uncle to die and give him a
lift. He reads the Personals" with
avidity every morning.
