saving them,

THE MAGIC OF SILENcE.-You have often
heard "it takes two to make quarrel" Do
you believe it? I'll tell you how one Of my
little friends managed. Dolly never came to
see Marjorie that there was not a quarrel.
Marjorie tried to speak gently; but no mat
ter how hard she tried, Dolly finally made
her SO angry, that she would soon speak sharp
words, too.
80, what shall do?" cried poor little Mar
jorie.
"Suppose you try this plan" said her man.
ma. "rhe next time Dolly comes in, seat
yourself in front of the fire and take the tongs
in your hand Whenever a sharp word comes
from Dolly, gently snap the tongs, without
speaking word"
Soon afterward in marched Dolly to see her
little friend.
1t was not quarter of an hour before DOL
ly's temper was rufled, and her voice was
raised, and as usual she began to find fault
and scold, Marjorie fled to the hearth and
seized the tongs, swapping them gently.
More angry words from Dolly.
Snap went the tongs.
More still. Snap.
"Why don't you speak," screamed Dolly
in fury. Snap went the tongs.
"Speak" said she. Snap was the only
answer.
"I'll never, never come again, never!" cried
Dolly.
Away she went Did she keep her promise ?
No, indeed. She came the next day, but see
ing Marjorie run for the tongs, she solemnly
said, if she would only let them alone, they
would quarrel no more for ever and ever.
asg- Waste not moment of your time, for
q ,nnront of time is a monument of mercy.

pG- An important consideration at this sea-
son of the year is to prevent, so far as possible,
the evaporation of moisture from the soil.
One means of doing this is to frequently stir
the surface. Another is shade for the ground.
The last is best obtained by mulching that
ia, by covering the soil between the rows and
closely around the plants with hay, straw,
half:rotted leaves, pine.straw, or any conve-
nient vegetable trash. This mulch should be
several inches in thickness, and will not only
prevent the rapid evaporation of moisture
and the reflected heat from the ground, but
also the close packing and baking of the soil
from the beating rains and the hot sunshine
which generally follow them. This mulching
should be done while the soil is still moist.
With heavy mulching the Irish potato crop
may be saved, and can be dug as wanted, far
into the summer, and the earliest planted to.
matoes often kept in bearing nearly the whole
season. 1t may be applied with profit to
nearly all the crops, but especially to those
most liable to be injured by heat and drought
H~ Tomatoes should be tied up to stakes or
trellses and we'll mulched. Seed may be
sown for late crop. Onions will be fit to
pull from the middle to the last of the month.
Take them up in dry day and spread on
floor in dry, airy place. Save Irish pota,
toes by spreading them in cool, dark place,
as seed for fall crop. Carefully work your
strawberry beds to kill all weeds, and then
mulch the ground. Ifyou desire new plants,
leave space between the rows, very lightly
mulched, in which the runners may take root.

SANTA BARBARA ITEMS.
[From the Press, July 18th.

Several gentlemen started this
morning for Santa Monica To attend
the sale. 1t is their intention before
returning to lay OFF a town OIL the Con-
ejo. New cities are springing up like
mushrooms, and they will all live if
they can get under the wing of mil
iOnaire.
A huge sea lion was seen this morn
ing sailing around the bulk of the
wharf. 1t is estimated he measured
IL feet in length. Mr.. lion has arrived
just in time to meet the telegram of
John Wilson who wishes to secure
such fellow for exhibition.
The new schooner Skip Jack came
into the harbor this morning and
landed three passengers. She is trim
neat little vessel, and was built this
year in Carpinteria. Her officers are
Capt. Macheinteir and first mate N.
d. Smith. She carries crew Of three
men.
[From the News, 15th.l
The Senator arrived here yesterday
afternoon, only twenty-eight hours
from San Francisco-the quickest
passage on record.
Mr.. J. l.. Barker is erecting six new
cottages, on the block at the corner of
Bath and Micheltorena streets, near
his residence. They will be for sale
when completed. This is good and
sensible investment, and great deal
more capital could be profitably in
vested in the same way. No season
has yet witnessed such rush of i'm
migration to Santa Barbara as will
come with the coming winter. A
great many who have already settled
here have small armies of friends and
relatives who will take up their line
of march in this direction before the
winter storms, while the tide of
strangers promises to be a flood tide,
overfowing our little city. 1t would
be well for other property owners to
follow the example of Mr.. Barker.

Wilmington Items.
From the Enterprise, July l5th.l

Large quantities oflumber continue
to pass through this place for different
points in the valley-which goes to
show that improvements are moving
steadily forward
Mr.. J. III. Riddle, who has the farm
of M. Eames, near Cierritos Station,
rented for the present cropping season,
dropped into our office the other day
and gave us some information in re-
gard to his crops and the situation
that speaks volumes in the behalf of
the lands in the vicinity of Whining
ton for farming purposes. Mr. R. has
100 acres of corn that he is confident
will average 100 bushels per acre. He
also has equally as good prospect for
Irish potatoes. But it must be borne
in mind that Mr.. Riddle is an expert
enced corn raiser from Kentucky, and
that he has applied the same thorough
ness of cultivation that was indis-
pensable in his native State.

PlowMAN,s MILL,

On sunday last, in company with sever
81 Others, we visited Mr.. K. P. Plowman's
mill, situated fourorf five miles above town;
ana after spending an hour examining the
machinery, etc., Of the'mill, we repaired to
the quartz ledge. Mr. Fulton and another
polite gentleman, employed on the ledge,
TOOK great pains in showing us around,
giving Information and answering numer.
Gus questions. At the surface the ledge is
about eighteen inches in width, inclosed
IN splendid walls, and widens out to three
feet. A tunnel has been run in over one
hundred feet, at the end of which the depth
from the surface is forty feet. Here a
three-foot ledge is found with walls as good
as at the surface, and small quantity of
decomposed quartz yielded rich prospect
OF fine gold. After remaining here short
time we returned to the mill boarding
house,o on invitation from Mr.. Plowman, and
partook Of as fine supper as could be
spread in any country. The manner in
which 1t was served showed that one of the
best cooks in the Basin presided over the
culinary department. and our party did am
pie justice to the sumptuous and elegant
repast by attacking it with that zest of ap-
petite which always follows ride in the
mountains.
There is another ledge, the discovery Of
which was made afew hundred yards south
Of the mill on Il high point several years
ago, which Mr. Plowman intends sinking
on during the coming season. Ten tons of
rock-all that was ever taken out Of it
were crushed in the Chickahominy mill,
in 1865, and yielded SIS in silver and 81
in gold per ton. 1t presents all the indica-
tons of good ledge, being wide and
welldefined; and is SO situated that with
small amount of labor depth of several
hundred feet could be obtained.
After some time spent in conversation
with the men about the mill. approaching
night warned US To start for home, where
We soon safely arrived. wonderfully pleas
