Rearing Ca.res Without 1risk.

We well recollect when it was consid-
cred that calves could not be raised pro-
perly without having for several weeks
or months the whole milk of a COW. In
deed a cow was often purchased for the
express purpose of letting the calf run
with it in the felds so as to suck when
ever it wanted. This necessarily made
a very fat calf and jnst as surely ruined
the COW. In our early farming days We
practised this expensive folly. and if the
object is to raise an animal for dairy
purposes, its tendency is to defeat the
object. A growing animal should be
kept thriving only, and such food should
be given as will promote the growth OF
its bones, muscles and tissues what may
he called normal growth and not to
make it fat for the butcher. There Is
no objection to having it thin, providing
it is healthy and in a growing condition.
We clip the following, without knowing
where the credit for it belongs, but 1t
strikes us as sound advice:
With good pasture, hay, oil cake, or
fine oat meal and one COW, three calves
may be kept successfully after they are
ten days old, and all the cream from the
milk OF that one COW made into butter
after the calves are four weeks old. We
have seen it done.
Reclpe.--BoIl one pound OF good tlm-
othy hay in six quarts OF water under
cover for one hour, and strain the tea
int bucket to cool. Stir three tables
spoonfuls of oil cake or fine oat meal in
to quart of boiling water, slowly, as in
making "hasty pudding" or "mush" and
when well cooked stir it into the hay
tea, and to the whole stir in the milk of
the COW. Feed warm at first, but after
a few days it will be quite as good cold.
Increase the quantity of oil or oat meal,
one tablespoonful for each calf every
second week, and the calves will each
look as well when three months old as
those fed entirely on milk. When about
four weeks old. if allowed to run in good
tender pasture, they will begin to feed
until they will depend entirely on grass.
Add a ve.y little salt to each feed, and
if they should begin to scour bail the
milk and stir in tablespoonful of -four
before it is added to the tea. After the
first week the danger frsm this cause
will be over unless they are fed to excess.

THE San Diego border warfare will
turn out to be small sized scrimmage
The killing of "six-toed Pete' or PE-
DRO BADILLo, If true, is of small in
ternational consequence. He was
well known here in connection with
his sister, and their lives were any
thing but edifying. Our charity for
the faults of the dead prevents us say
Ing more of these characters that have
passed to other scenes, there to render
an account of their sojourn on earth.
Judging men by the company they
keep would lead us to suppose that at
least some of the companions of six
toed Pete in misfortune are but small
loss to either Republic. Itwould not
be more than proper to expect that
the government would establish a
military post near the line of a for
eign government, for the protection
of national interest, to prevent SNUG
Cling, to protect our revenues in every
way, and to exercise wholesome ter
ror over the brigandage of barbarous
outlaw class who enter our Republic
as peaceable citizens, but who really
come and return as robbers, murder
ers, cutthroats and assassins. The
present outcry must not frighten Gen.
eral SCHoFIELD. There are more con-
tracts for supplies involved than any
genuine fear of invasion.

A horrible murder was committed
i'm San Francisco on Saturday morn
ing. Louis Lassie kicked his wife to
death. There is hardly portion of
her body without great bruises from
his heavy boots. Mrs. Lasse has been
an invalid for some time, but was able
to do her housework Christmas eve
she went down and purchased turkey
for next days dinner, and on return
ing she and her husband got to quar-
reling. when he knocked her down
and began kicking her. Next morn
ing she died. The inhuman brute is
in jail charged with murder.

Dispatches received in London from
the seat of war in Herzegovina state
that II great battle took place on Thurs
day last near rNitchilzen,, lasting near

were engaged. The Turkish troops
claim a decisive victory. The fighting
on both sides was desperate and the
losses severe.
Friday night, Abingdon, Ills, was
thrown into a fever of excitement by
the assassination of Rev. Oran
Perkley, President of Abingdon Col
lege, an institution belonging to the
Christian denomination there. There
have been two factions in the town
for some time, growing out of the re-
moval of the former President, J. M.
Butler, and the installation of Mr..
Perkley, most disgraceful demon
stration being made. The entire viii
lage seemed embroiled. On Friday
night, Christmas services were being
held in the College building. During
the evening three drunken rowdies,
belonging to the anti-Perkley faction,
named Homex, Lampllin and Gabriel
created a disturbance in the corridors.
President Perkley und 'rtook to quiet
them when Lampkin lit him with
billy, and he fell mortally wounded.
The boys were arrested and are in Jail.
At last accounts Perkley was still
alive, but the doctors agree that his
recovery is impossible.

IN quarreling with and practising
cruelty toward her provinces, Turkey
has done great deal in the way of
destroying that sympathy and protec-
tion which the great powers of Europe
have heretofore extended her. In
place Of sympathy and protection, her
champions now propose to introduce
reforms" in that country, and those
reforms imply a crushing of the gov
ernment. The London Times express
es a willingness that so much of the
treaty of Paris which prevents for
eign intervention between the Sultan
and his subjects, shall be recinded-
With this clause goes the shield which
has so long stood between the Sultan
and annihilation, and the blotting of

earth may be regarded as one of the

A Suggestion.

THE Court House property cost the
people of Los Angeles county $50, 900.
1t is now worth and can be sold any
day for $4,000 cash. The property
belongs to the county, the city having
no interest as city In it. The Spring
street Jail and Council room property
is owned Jointly by the city and
county, and is worth at least 500, 900.
The Court House property is valuable
and will continue to increase in value
in the future. The Court House would
make very creditable City Hall, and
would answer for the city's public
building for number of years to
come. Now suppose the city pur-
chases from the county the Court
House, and the county buys the city's
half of the Spring street property.
The transfer will give the county an
eligible site for Court House and the
city will secure hall which will
meet her requirements for ten or
twelve years and then sell for double
the money paid for it. If the prices
paid were those we have named, the
county would have Court House
fund of S30,000 1t is not our purpose
to urge this or any other measure in
volving expenditure and increased
taxation, but as there is considerable
discussion on the subject of building
a new Court House, we make these
suggestions for the consideration of
both opponents and advocates of the
measure. The county can well af-
ford to dispose of the Court House at
the price named, as it>cost but half
that sum, and she has had the use of
1t for q long period. The city's half
of the Spring street property is esti-
mated to be worth from Sc, 600 to $l0,-
600, but as it now stands it is not of
very great value to the municipality.

An Admission.

The San Francisco Chronicle has
reached the conclusion that the day is
not distant when all roads will not
lead to San Francisco. This is
broad admission from journal of the
city by the sea. 1t has heretofore
been a rare, we may say, an unheard
of thing for San Francisco paper to
admit the possible coming of time
when any other place in the State,
could divide or draw off a portion of
the trade Of that city, yet We now have
the admission of the Chronicle that
Los Angeles bids fair to become q
great railroad centre and as such to
share with the great city the Pacific
coast trade. The middle and North
ern portion of our. s tate were never fa-
vorable to Southern transcontinen-
tai railroad. The San Francisco pa
pers were opposed to the Texas Pacific
and when it became apparent that the
SCOTT subsidy bill was doom ed to de-
feat, they made no attempt at con-
cealing their satisfaction. The ener-
gy and activity displayed by the South
ern Pacific Railroad company, in
pushing their road Eastward from this
city has received but the faintest COM
mendation from the San Francisco
press, but now that the early compile
tion Of that road is regarded as fix
ed fact, we find the Chronicle realizing
what has been apparent to us from the
first-the extension of the Union Pa
cific road into Southern California,
and consequentimportance of Los An
geles as railroad center. 1t is high
time our metropolitan contemporaries
made up their minds to accept the in
evitabie with as good grace as possi-
BILE. Los Angeles cannot be catalogued
with the class of tribulation to San
Francisco in which are ranked Sacra-
mento, Stockton, San Jose and iValle-
10. She is not within reach of the city,s
attractive powers and is not, like the
cities named, drawn into the vortex
Of the great maelstrom. Los Angeles
is q central sun herself and she is the
centre of commercial system which
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-12-28

is rapidly extending and will continue
to expand until even the great jour-
nails which have so long tried to ignore
her very existence, will be forced to
admit that she is not only a great
railroad and commercial center, but
destined to soon become the capital of
a State. No part of the Pacific coast
is improving so rapidly in wealth and
population and no part of the State is
more rapidly developing rich and va
ried resources than Southern Califor-
MIA.

Mr.. JOHN l.. CAMPBELL, Secretary
of the Centennial Commission, makes
the following suggestion, which should
meet the approval and secure the en-
enlargement Of every American cit
izen..
1t seems proper that the local celebrations
of the Fourth Of July, 1876, which will be held
throughout the land, should be made to con-
tribute to permanent historical memorial
Of the Centennial Celebration. In each coun-
ty provision should be made for the delivery
Of an address tracing the history OF that par
ticuIar community for the past century, or
from the time of It's settlement, and inelnd-
ing a sketch Of its growth, its resources, IN
dustries, prospects, etc. These addresses
should be published in uniform siZe,-shat
of the Congressional documents, for instance,
in order that they may be bound together
by States. To competent persons the pFepa-
ration OF such addresses would not be undu-
ly burdensome task; but in the aggregate
they would constitute an invaluable histori-
cal repository, such as no nation has ever had
the opportunity to collect. Designations of
the historians ought to be made without de-
lay. in order that they may have time to ac-
complish their work. 1t is to be hoped that
the press will give general circulation to the
project, and that leach journal will see to its
c0nsummation in its own locality, and that
the slight expense involved be assumed by
the county or town authorities.
