MOSTLY ABOUT POULTRY.

RUSH CREEK, June Is 1878.
! DEAR JOURNAL Every individual
throughout the length and breadth of
Uncle Samuel's domain who is blessed
or cursed, as The case may be, with an
old hen, is giving his experience through
the respective local papers in poultry
raising. Now propose giving my own
through the columns of the JOURNAL.
l thought to commence in rather mod
est way by purchasing one hen and il
she did we'll then buy two; then four,
and'still raising the number until 1 got
up respectable Egg Ranch.
Well, bought a hen and rooster for
which paid two of John P. Jones' great
big American Kale seed 4; brought them
home on Wednesday Thursday fed her
all day on wheat, no eggs Friday fed
her on barley all day and chased her up
hill, no eggs Saturday fed her on fresh
meats and chased her down hill, no eggs;
Sunday at two o'clock had her for dinner,
no eggs at four felt a little squamish
about the stomach expended two bits
for Perry Davis Pain Killcr felt better.
Summing up: 81 for hen, 80 cents for
feed, 2 bits for Pain Killer, and so cents
for waste of wind. So you see am out
and injured the sum of$2 05, and no show
to ever get even without do it on the
old rooster. am still feeding him on
pop corn and when he gets fat may write
you what l know about making pet pies.
Send you leg, did you say? Oh I'll
take chance on him as have good
big dose of Old Paynes Davis Killer
left over from the old hen.
Think of sending below for a patent
churn and commencing the manufacture
of beeswsx, and see how that works.
would just like to digress an inch or
two, long enough to say that any fool who
has garden and money enough to pur
chase seed, with little advice from his
neighbors when and how to sow his early
pop corn and late dried pumpkins can
plant it, but how to cultivate it well after
that is done is what ails your Aunt
Jermima. Coming in to election Not
much have got the JOURNALS disease
but l don't think big disgust quite EN-
phatic enough to express it unless pre-
faced with an oath. JACINTo.

The VoTE IN THE CoUNTY.-At the
Constitutional Convention Election on
wednesday last, polls We're not opened in
several OF The precincts and in the others
the vote was very light. In Weaverville
few straight Democratic tickets were
circulated, but elsewhere none but non
partisan tickets were procurable, and in
TACT some OF the precincts had no tickets
at all. 1t is probable that number of
Workingmen's Tickets would have been
voted IN this county, if they could have
been had, but there were none sent here.
80 far as we can learn up to the time of
going to press, the following is the vote
IN :he precincts named, in round num-
bers, but little scratching being done out

A SOUND CoMPANY.-Thea attention Of
parties who desire reliable indemnity for
loss by fire is directed to the advertise
ment of the New Zealand Insurance
Company. This is one Of the very best
Companies represented on the Pacific
Coast, and the only one doing business
here that does not claim from thirty to
sixty days for the settlement Of losses.
The New Zealand settles all losses i'm
mediately upon the receipt of satisfactory
proofs of loss. Their rates on desirable
risks are lower than those of TIE Board
Companies. Policies will be issued, re
newed, transferred or Cancelled at the
Weaverville Agency, so that person is
insured whenever the Application is sign
ed and the Policy issues Immediately.
Give it trial.

WANTS TO KNow.--A lady friend
sends us the following queries please
give (tbrough the columns of your paper
the exact meaning Of The word ICY
Clone" whether wind storm or wind
accompanied by rain. Are not these
storms of rare occurrence in the United
States Please state the pronunciation
of the word "croquet." Is it to be ac.
cented on the first or last syllable {? Also
the customary way of spelling " Memo
menee." the river of that name in Wis
consin. / find tspet in several ways in
the different biographies. What makes
the weather so nsuffera5ly hot ?"
The following, from the New American
Cyclopedia, fully answers the first ques-
ton. with the addition that cyclones are
of rare occurrence in the United States :
Cyclone, storm of wind which moves
in immense whirls, and at the same time
sweeps onward over the surface. Cy-
clones are usually 200 TO 800 m. in diam
eter, sometimes more than 1000 m.-
Their central point is calm, and this
moves forward from 2 to 40 m. per hour
These storms originate outside Of the
equatorial bolt between the tropics, and
move toward the poles. In the southern
hemisphere the rotation is in the same
direction with the hands of a watch
placed with the face upward ; in the
northern, the direction is reversed.
We have no authority at hand for the
pronunciation Of croquet, but ordinarily
it is accented on the last syllable.
Menomenes /" is usually spelled
MenomOnee.
AS to the warm weather, the JOURNAL
editor blames it on the devi--printer's o
course. Outsiders will have to attribute
1t to Beecher, he having abolished tha
other hot place, the heat has come to The
surface. Next

Z. ": craig, Local Agent for the Neac
Zedtdnd Fire Insurance Company.
DEAR SIR Allow me, through you,
TO return my thanks to the NEW YEA
LAND Insurance Company for their
prompt, business-l like and satisfactory
adjustment of my recent loss by fire. The
circumstances were peculiar as my Poll
cy was written May Sth, 1873, and learn
was the only risk the New Zealand had
in this county at that date. My dwelling
and contents were entirely destroyed by
fire on Monday, june 10th, one month
after the Policy issued, and the loss wss
settled on Saturday June 18th, FIVE days
after the fire. Mr.. Harry l.. Rolf, the
adjuster, after full investigation, gave me
a check on San Francisco for $500, that
being the full amount Of my insurance.
Having been so well treated by the Com
pany, | take pleasure in recommending
the NEW ZEALAND to all who desire
reliable insurance and fair and honorable
settlements in case of loss.

our most promnen. citizens met and re-
solved to request Mr.. John Blackwell to
remove the China house. now building in
the burnt district, back twenty feet from

or misunderstanding should occur the
sense of the meeting was reduced to writ
ing and after being signed by every bus
mess man solicited, with a single excep-

the ultimatum was that the China house
would be complained of as nuisance as

route between Arca.a and Weaverville
has been let to one Price, Of Jefferson
City, Missouri, for the sum of Sl633, and
not to John Lessard Of Arcata, for Sl7O0,
as at first announced. Bryan Tyson, At
.orney for Price, was here last week for
the purpose of letting sub-contract, but
did not find any one who desired the job
at the figures for which the original con
tract was taken. He returned to Marys-
vile. whence he will go ria San Francis
co to Arcata, to see what can be done on
the other end of the route. Previous to
his arrival here he had written to engage
n seat in the hack or other conveyance

is carried on the hurricane deck of mule,
he concluded not to make the trip over
land.
