The Poor Mans Blessing.

We have frequently called attention to the
great boon good COW is to the poor man, and
the large prof of good dairy. This is espe-
cially the case where only few cows are kept,
and are we'll cared for.
A friend of ours, with three grade short-norn
cows, has realized less than ninety dolus
from the product Of each COW in single season.
besides the milk and butter used in the family.
But these favorable results depend upon two
conditions, one or both which We frequently see
overlooked or disregarded, to w.t.
First, That we have good COW, good in form
that profitable disposition made of the carcass
for beef, when the COW is no longer wanted for
the dairy, and liberal and steady mixer 1t ls
incomprehensible to us that poor cow should
ever be used, when good ones can be obtained at
so small an advance upon the common price.
This is especially true where feed is high,
and the ANIMALS kept with view OF supply ne
milk and butter for the family or market. In
deed, inferior cows should not be kept for any
purpose, but should be slaughtered for beef as
soon as their nferiortv is discovered To keep
an ILL formed COW, poor mixer. for breeder,
il even worse economy than for the dairy. as in
this way we perpetuate and multiply Improbable
stock.
The second condition for success with the
dairy COW is that she have plenty to eat and the
hest and kipdest treatment. All farmers under
stand the Importance of crowding hogs designed
for slauchter-that it takes half as much to
make an animal ''hoid its own" as to keep up the
highest degree OF gain, and that, therefore, If we
only half feed, what is consumed Is dead loss:
so It is when we merely keep alive young cate
or other stock But in no instance does full pas
tire or a proper supply of other food IN winter,
mr. when nasture is short pay better than in the
management of the dairy cow. The more plen-
tiful the food the greater will be- not only the
the Wed, but the absolute prctit.-I =. y, N

The high pretensions of factors appeared to
have prevented buyers from coming forward,

600 bales, and the New York market quiet and

Electricity and Guns.

The recent experiments In Prussia in
the application of electricity TO the dis
charge Of cannon are exceedingly interest
ing BY means of this invention num-
Der Of guns Of the heaviest caliber may be
discharged simultaneously, the balls all
striking the same mark. The experiment
was successfully made with four Krupp
guns, increasing four.fold their individual
destroying force. The introduction OF this
invention in naval warfare would render
iron-clads altogether useless. The in.
crease in the weight Of iron armor for ships
of war, though enormous, has barely been
sufficient 10 keep pace with the increase
IN the caliber of cannon. Guns have been
cast which the heaviest iron armor that
any ship of war can practically ever float
is barely powerful enough 10 resist and 1t
was becoming q question, before these
Prussian experiments, whether iron ciads
were any longer serviceable, since guns
were coming into use which they could
not resist more effectually than wooden
vessels, while on the other hand they were
much slower, cumbersome and far more
expensive. This new invention tends,
therefore, TO settle the question. BY max
ing guns SO powerful that iron-clads must
succumb before them, wooden vessels will
again come into use; while on the other
hand the temperance Of wooden vessels
will render such heavy cannons unneces-
sary, and will in turn do sSay with them
Thus the invention Of these heavy guns
and their discharge by electricity may rem.
der both entirely unnecessary.--Journal Of
tie Tslearaph.

A Rich Mine.

A GENTLEMAN who formerly did bust
ness in this city gives us a few interesting
facts in regard TO the great mine at Kern.
vile, owned by Senator Jones. The mine
is located near the little town Of Kernville.
and was opened some seven or eight years
ago. 1t underwent variety of fiuctua-
tons until 1t fell entirely into the hands OF
the present owner. When Mr.. Jones pur-
chased all the interest outstanding--about
q year since-he at once commenced to
unfold its treasures He sank deep shaft,
ran WINES and slopes in various direc-
tons, made convenient levels and cross
cuts at various points, and prospected the
entire ledge for two miles and halt, and
found it rich In gold at every point. 1t
has an average breadth Of eighty feet, and
the main shaft has been sunk 400 fcet--all
the way in ore. The ledge varies in value
from twenty-five dollars to $500 per ton.
II is now estimated by the men i'm the
mine that there Is ore enough in sight to
furnish work for the stamps now in opera
ton for ten years. The mill and hosting
works are pronounced the best in Califor-
MIA. An eighty.stamp mill, with every
Improvement known to modern mining
science, is kept in constant operation
never ccasing either night or day-and 1t
is turning out vast amount Of bullion.
or course II Is only known to the proprie-
tor and his chief operators how much the
yield is; but If we strike an average Of the
ore, and allow one ton day TO each stamp,
1t would give gross yield from this mine,
with the present works, Of "a, 500, 000.--
