OUR farmers commit great mis-

OUR farmers commit great mis-.
take when they make barley Their
sole reliance for a crop. What we
need in Los Angeles county isdiver-
sified farming, such as they have in
the East. The Industrious man in
Los Angeles county can take forty
acres and make u comfortable liv-
ing and, in time, competency,
but he will do it by putting in po-
tatoes, tomatoes, alfalfa, beets,
carrots, onions and the hundred
and one things that the Eastern
farmer cultivates. He should keep
cows, sheep, fatten pigs and raise a
horse or two Of a good breed, year.
ly. The man who expects TO make
his way in the world as farmer
must not make grain of any kind
his exclusive reliance. 1t is per-
fectly feasible to buy as good lands
as there are in Los Angeles county,
with facilities for irrigation, at $50
an acre. A farm of forty acres
would thus stand the settler in
about $1,000. He should have,
besides, money enough to carry
him through the first year. 1t dis
eourages us to see the tremendous
stretches of land which are planted
in barley. Many of the farmers
who have made this cereal their
sole recourse are so cramped for
ready money that they will have
to sell their crops at very low
figure. The experience of every
farmer hereabouts proves that the
man who can hold his grain for six
months always secures a good
price, while those who are obliged
to come into the market early are
the prey of the middlemen. AT
best, barley is only profitable as
crop to those who can afford to put
in tracts of four or five thousand
acres and upwards. What this
section painfully needs is hundred
or so of the energetic, persevering
and indomitable farmers of the
East, not only for the actual bene-
fits they themselves would confer
on this section but for their infu-
ence as an example. Hitherto we
have failed to show that we COM
prehend the possibilities that lie
ready to our hands.

CoLUSA, April 25th.-Deputy
Coroner Allen returned from
Strong Creek to-day, where he has
been holding an INCEST on the body
of Geo. Squires, killed by Charles
Cockde on the 22d. The evidence
shows that Squires came on the

Cockde and said, ~ am ready
Witness then heard the report of o
pistol and saw Cockde knock
Squires off the porch and Their
shoot at him three times. Squires
then walked across the road and sal
down on q stone, when Cockdt
went into his saloon, got another
pistol and walking up within a few
feet of Squires, gave him foul
other shots. Squires died in short
time. Eight balls took effect in his
body. Cochde claims self defense,
gave himself up and is now in Jail.

IT Is somewhat singular that,
during the late complications in
the East, there was by no means
the active and emphatic sympathy
developed with Russia in the
United States that was exhibited by
us during the Crimean war. This
is the more curious from the fact
that our people cannot have failed
to have remembered the unfriendly
attitude of great Britain towards
the United States during the 'late
unpleasantness.n In view of this
change, we are inclined to look
upon our attitude during the
Crimean war as refsrable to the
fact that Russia was then the
under dog in the fight. There is
great deal of this kind of generos-
ity amongst the American people.
During the Turkish war Russia
was the stronger power, and We ex-
tended to the Pagan Paynims al
most as much sympathy as We ac-
corded to the Muscovite twenty
years earlier. Really this country
is under obligations to Russia for a
long series of courteous and friendly
attentions. Mark Twain, in his
"Innocents Abroad" gives but one
of q thousand instances of this
friendly feeling on the part of Rus.
STA. All tile rigid laws which reg
ulats the intercourse of foreigners
with the subjects of the Gear have
been repeatedly thrown down. The
mere fact that the excursionists of
the Quaker City were Americans
was all "open SESAME" to every
port in the Russian empire, and
