months visit to California. gives re-

but ALTERING account of the condi
ton of affairs In that State He says
that all sorts Of business is ovsrdone
and that an immense number Of peo

out employment. A Sn Francisco
German newspaper, in an earnest edi.
torial, urgently appeals to the Germans
to stay away from there, as large mum
bers Of their countrymen are already
in distress, owing to the absence Of
remunerative occupations. Mechanics
by the thousand are out of employment
and having exhausted their resources,
are xithout the means Of removing
their families to more favored localities
Mr.. Ramsey met with an estimable
man, formerly of Anoka, skilful
mechanic, who was out of work and
had been for many months, and who
could not even get an opportunity to
labor for his board.
Farmers who have removed to CAL
ifornia are even worse off than mechan-
les and laborers, for the quantity Of
arabic land in tho State is out Of all
proportion to the area of the State,
and the best land is limited to the val.
ieys, and consequently its price is fab.
u'ous and totally hey yond the reach Of
men in ordinary circumstances. Land
brings $40 to $50 an acre in localities

transportation facilities ard local mar

ABOUT Eaas.-A writer in the
Medical Journal, discoursing on dys-
pepsia says:
We have seen dyspeptics who suffer-
ed untold torments of which they did
not tell alter some medicine given for
relief: No liquid could be taken with
out suffering Bread became a burn
ing acid. Meat and milk ware solid
and liquid fires. We have seen these
same sufferers trying to avoid food and
drink and even going to the enema
syringe for sustenance. And We have
seen their tcrments pass away and
their hunger relieved by living upon
the white Of eggs, which have been
boiled in bubbling water for thirty
minutes At the end Of a week We
have given the hard yo!k of the egg
with the white, aud upon this diet
alone, without fluid of any kind, We
have seen them begin to gain flesh and
strength and refreshing sleep. After
weeks of this treatment they have been
able, with care, to begin on other food
Aud ali this the writer adds, without
taking medicine He says that hard
boiled eggs are not half so bad as half
boiled ones, and ten times as easy to
digest rs raw eggs, even in egg.nog.
WATER FOR CArrLE.-How much
water cutie require we have learned
this winter. Our water, in pipes to
the barn, being stopped, and the sur
face ct the ground being covered with
| ice s p, as to make it unsafe for the cat
tie to 20 to the stream, we hauled
water for them from the stream-a
quarter of mile-for two weeks. And
this was practiced by many of our
neiyhbors. Fifty head of cattle and
horses drank daily fifty cans CT water.
aud, few times, as many as fifty.
Eve These are milk cans Of ten gal
Ions each So that cattle require at
least ten gallons each per day. There
are four horses, two oxen, thirty six
cows and eight young cattle. l. 1t
would require large cistern for such
supply. 2 Cattle seem to drink
more water in very cold weather 3.
The quantity Of milk seemed to be
lessensd by the use of such very cold
water. 4. We got very certain es-
innate of the value Of plenty Of spring
water coming to the barn.-Cor.
Country Gentleman.
TURN,Ps.- Any farmer who grows
three or FIVE acres oil corn may have
three to Eve tundr.d bushels of fiat Or
fed turnips to feed, if he will take
the trouble to save the seed. fany
one wishes to try it next season, and
will follow the directions here given, l
will guarantee him full crop every
season.
Get good seed. Sow half a pound
per acre in among the corn any time
in July, when working the corn the
last time. Be sure and put the seed
down broadcast, before you plow .o'
cultivate the corn, so as to work the
seed into the ground !; no matter il
you are marking With the plow, you
will not get them in too deep. The
seed will come up sure. For the good
Of your corn and turnips, keep the
weeds down.-A. Donald, IN Moore's
Rural Ne,o Yorker.
EvERaREens.-The whole growth
of evergreens for the year takes place
in about fifteen to twenty days, last
of April and first of May or June, in
the North, according to locality, &c
If they are transplanted just as the
new growth commences for the year
with ordinary care they will live and
grow as rapidly as apple trees. Wher
