Business versus Bombast.

The person Eulogio +. de Cells
published yesterday a supplement
to La Reforn,a In which he makes
a number of ridiculous statements
to the effect that the publisher OF
the HERALD held the forms of La
Refornla because he knew that
said de Cells was about to publish
an article, copied from the San
Francisco Golden Era, attacking
the Farmers and Merchants Bank,
of this city. We have never sought
to make ourselves acquainted with
what Mr.. de Cells put in his paper.
Controlling a number of power
presses, run by steam, the publish
er of the HERALD has printed all
sorts of newspapers, French, Span.
ish and German, on the single con-
dition that our bills for the work
should be paid on presentation.
We have at various times printed
La Cronica, II Union, the Sued
| CdtifOrniSche Post and other
papers, and the managers of those
journals have always paid their
bills with gratifying promptitude.
With Mr.. Eulogio F. de Cells the
case has been entirely different.
To get the little stipend from
him that our contract called for
for doing the press-work on
La RefOrnaa has been as difficult
as it would ordinarily be to
squeeze blood out of turnip.
The other day, and once before, de-
termined, after repeated applica-
tions to Mr.. c., to have our money
or our moneys worth, we availed
ourselves Of that provision of the
statutes of California which per-
mits a man who has done work on
anything to hold it until he is paid
for his service. That is all there Is
of this molehill which Mr.. de Cells
has endeavored to magnify into a
mountain. He can come and pay
the charges overdue for press work
and take his forms away, and this
time he must keep them away, for
he Is such bad pay that we shall
not longer subject ourselves to the
worry of the job.
AS to Mr.. de Celis's second hand
attack upon the Farmers and
Merchants Bank, we have nothing
to do with that. He may perhaps
find, however, that the community
do not sympathize in movement
which would be calculated to pro-
duce financial distress and strin-
gency here were it not for the we'll
known stability and respectability
of the institution attacked and for
the established sagacity and stand
ing of its directory and manage
ment.

"How came you to be drunk

you all about that" said Tom; 81

J. Breckenridge, and our friends
thought we were the intellectual
wonders of the age, and they ad-
vised us, by way of taking high
position at once, to attack Henry
Clay, then in the prime of his fame
and power, upon the first opportu-
nifty that presented itself. That
opportunity soon came. We were
employed in case in opposition
to him. Bob made a speech and l

We had the pleasure of meeting
yesterday Captain Roberts, who
superintends the Los Angeles COM
pany's well in the Sespe district.
He informs us that the principal
we'll of the company has now at
tainei a depth of twelve hundred
and fifty feet, and that it is MAX
ing steady progress. The auger is
penetrating oil bearing strata, and
the indications for a reliable well
are most promising. At these
great depths sinking into the
bowels of the earth is a slow, labo-
rious and painful process, the
slightest arrangement resulting in
vexatious delays, sometimes re.
quiring appliances that have often
to be brought a great distance.
Capt. Roberts is very sanguine OF
profitable results to his company

tage over the liquid, even if it requires more
time to apply it, As the vines must be wet,

or four weeks, and that rains do not easily

In applying dry MIXTURE whether of

Liquid manures, as a rule, especially among
horticulturists do not receive the attention
they deserve. All experience leads to the
conclusion that manure, of whatever descrip-
ton, is the quickest in its action when ap-
piled in its liquid state consequently, when
any crop gives evidence of insufiiciency of
support, there is nothing so etiectual as hq-
uid manure This particularly applies to
kitchen garden crops, where the necessary
application is practicable. In fact there are
some vegetables that, in their more advanced
stages of growth, can only be brought to per
lection by the use of liquid manure judicious-
ly applied.
The French gardeners grow summer salads
that are held in equal estimation with those
grown in winter owing their excellence large
ly 10 the rich liquid with which they are UNI
stiuiiugly supplied. Lettuces, radishes and
cress, that are grown quickly by the use of
liquid manure, are as different as can well be
imagined from the tough, fiavorless and indi-
gestible vegetables which are too frequently
produced. The comparatively large plants,
in the smallest of pots, which the growers for
Convent Garden market in London turn out,
are striking examples of what may be accom-
plished by feeding the plant with liquid ma.
nure alone. All plants in pots, that require
stimulating, are benefited through the use OF
liquid manure

If the land Were rich enough to produce
two or three good crops each year 1t would
be better to cut the grass before the heads for
blossoming appeared. or before more than
few of the blossoms had appeared. III this
way two or three good crops could be secured
the same year, and when well cured would be
almost equal to grass i'll June to feed to dairy
cows or cattle fattening. More weight from
an acre could actually be obtained than by
the common practice Of cutting when in full
blossom and then cutting a second crop if
there is one. BY cutting before blossoming
the second crop would start at once aud grow
rapidly. and that having been cut, there
would be a good prospect for another good
stout crop. These remarks. of course. apply
only to land i'll rich condition. Nearly ev-
cry farm, however. has one or more acres
which are III sufficiently productive condi-
ton to enable the owner to practice earlier
cutting, and secure dried grass instead of hay.
Let each farmer in the State this year try one
acre of his best grass 10y cutting 1t Just before
the blossom buds appear then cutting sec
ond time when the grass attains the same
size: and finally cutting third time should
the season prove favorable. 4 few such trials
would no doubt convince many of our dairy
men of the advantage of this method far bet
ter than any written argument or exhoraton
could 1t is not hay that the dairyman wants
to feed his cows, young stock and fattenng
beeyes, but dried grass. When dried grass
in sufficient amount can be secured for win
tering the whole of the farm stock. then there
will be almost as marked gain III growth
increase in weight and productive capacity
for milk as in the summer.-Leir ,jOut-
