John Finnell, one of Napa's princely
farmers, has recently purchased $4,000
acres of land in Tehama County, at a
cost of $4,000 The property is known
as the Thomas estate, and has on it a
$3.50 residence and about 800, 900
worth of fencing. With the land and
mprovements, Mr.. Finnell gets 2,200
head of cattle, 1,240 hogs, and lot of
horses, mules etc. This entities Mr..
Finnell to place in the front rank of
the great farmers of California. His
home place in this valley, comprising
1000 acres, and besides keeping 500
of it in high state of cultivation. he
has for the past four years been paying
S35, 900 per year rent for large tract
of farming land in Colusa County, from
which he has derived a handsome in
come. We understand it to be the in
tention of Mr.. Finnell to remove with
his family to his new place in Tehama
County next spring. The new property
has never been put under the pillow and
it is thought will prove productive

Yellow Jack i'm Brazil.

1t may be interesting at the present
moment to give few items on NOR
tally at Rio de Janiero during the four
years 1886, extracted from the able
report of the Baron de Lavradio, Pres
ident of the Board of Health.
In the whole municipality of Rio de
Janiero, exclusive of the parish of Iraia,
the births during four years reached
1854, while the deaths in the same
period amounted to 3,146, or an ex-
cess of deaths in the four years of 49,
1888 persons in population of 299, 900.
Of the deaths 80, 523 were males and
1891 females.
The annual mortality averaged 4.36
per cent. in city parishes and only 2.32
per cent. in the outer parishes. The
mortality of the four years was unusual
and attributable to great sanitary dis
turbances.
In the four years yellow fever carried
off 1926 persons, other fevers 1926,
and smallpox 1885.
The mortality was prOportionately
higher among foreigners, who num-
bered about 10000, it having been in
1873, 1852; in 1874, $3.50; in 1875,
1920; and in 1876, 6,319. In this num-
Der, it must be remembered that the
crews Of foreign vessels arriving in the
port (some 10000 persons annually
contributed a large contingent. In
ordinary years the deaths OF seamen
range about 250, while in 1876 they
reached S2S.
By the census of 1872 the population
of Rio comprised 1873, 666 free Brazil
ians, 1924 slaves, and 76, 627 foreign
ers, in all 251,617.
OF the foreigners $500 were males,
and only 1S, 10Y females. Of the 9TH
ers, the sexes were more equally di-
vided.
The population of Rio is increasing
slowly, due entirely to the influx from
outside, as will be seen by the follow
ing:
In 1872, population 251, 617 in the
city of Rio.
1872, yellow-fever year, 6,517 births,
and II, 102 deaths.
1874, $500 births and 9,251 deaths.
1873, 7,474 births and 10, 1913 deaths.
1876, yellow-fever year, 1860 births
and 12,76 deaths.
By the settlement of 24,7O0 strangers
during the four years the population in
1876 was 25S, 147, compromising for the
larger number of deaths over births.
The period for the raging of the yell
low fever at Rio de Janiero is from the
beginning of January to the end of
April each year.-Neo0 Orleans Plea

Sweating Wheat.

Good farmers are reluctant to thresh
their wheat until it is stacked and goes
through the sweat, which takes three
or four weeks. 1t is sort of fermen-
tation, and it matters not how dry the
grass when stacked, in few days fer
mentation commences, the straw be-
comes damp and slightly warm, and
the process is not thorough and the
straw is not dry enough to thresh short
of three weeks, and it is better to let it
stand four weeks.
1t is conceded by careful observers
that wheat which has gone through the
sweating process in stack is brighter
and plumper, heavier, and contains
more gluten, and consequently makes
more and better flour. Wheat was in
bad condition at harvest, lodged and
crinkled, so that much of it was not
bound, and all in a bad condition to
stack. As a natural result, a large
number of farmers determined to thrash
without stacking. And this has caused
another failure nearly as great as the
heat and rain before harvest. Owing
to the frequent drenching showers, the
thrashed in damp condition, so that
warehouses would not receive it. 1t is
now heating and moulding in close
bins. This is shortening the crop OF
wheat and adding to the loss of farm
ers. No barn floors to spread it on,
it is almost impossible to save it. In
the wheat business this has been alto,
gether vexatious year, making many
farmers feel and look blue.-Io,OG State
Register.

Didn't Believe in Advertising &.

The Piedmont Ne'0s gives the follow
ing: A merchant of Culpepper was
protesting, day or so since, that ad-
vertising benefited nobody but the
newspaper publishers; money paid for
advertising was thrown away; nobody
read them. We offered to insert in the
most remote corner of the paper he
might select an advertisement offering
$3.50 bushel for wheat, provided he
would make the offer good to those who
might read the advertisement and call
on him. And do you think he would
do it? Not bit of it. And this is the
way with most men who denounce
advertising; when asked to test the
matter as to whether or not adver-
tisements aye read they always de-
cline, thereby showing what little faith
they have in their own words, and
tacitly acknowledging the great power
of the press as an advertising medium.

Mutton Hams.

The following is from a correspond
ent to the New York Times: AS a
change from too frequent pork, eggs
and poultry diet, mutton hams would
be very desirable. A sheep slaughtered
occasionally would furnish enough
fresh meat for a weeks consumption,
without the legs and shoulders. These
may be cured as hams, and furnish a
toothsome change of diet, either sliced
raw or lightly broiied over clear Goals.
To cure the hams proceed as follows:
The legs of fat sheep are cut into the
shape of hams and rubbed over with a
mixture of equal parts of bay salt and
brown sugar, They then remain TWEEN
ty-four hours. A pickle is made as fol
lows: Two pounds each of bay and
common white salt, six ounces of salt
petre and one pound of brown sugar
are Eoiled in four quarts of water, the
liquid being skinned as it boils; when
the pickle is cold the hams are put into
it and kept covered for two weeks.
They are then taken out, wiped dry,
hung up, and smoked over a slow fire
of damp wheat straw. The knuckles
should be filed with brown sugar and
tied over closely with pieces OF
bladder. The hams are then hung up
in warm. place, which causes the fat
to partly melt and become absorbed by
the lean meat. A few sweet herbs may
be pounded and mixed with the pickle
to add desired flavor. The shoulders
may be prepared by removing the blade
bones and treating them as above, tax
ing care to rub the openings with plen-
ty of the mixed salt and sugar. When
taken from the pickle these should be
sewed up. To keep the meat, place ii
in clean box between layers of sweet
hay; cover with a close-ftting lid, upon
which weight should be laid.

A Mistake.

The other morning a candidate for
an important office, says the Arkansas
Democrat, desiring to show farmer
how deep an interest he felt in agricul-
tural affairs, stepped up to a piece of
machinery in front of the Ashley man
sion, and Remarked:
"Ah! my dear Mr., --. What is
the name?"
Roach"
"Oh, yes, Roach; but | was going to
say, and which has often been said by
intelligent men everywhere, the farmer
is the backbone in the anatomy of bust
ness. Knowing this | have made the
ways and interests of farmers a study.

temptuously, THAT thing reaper!
That's sorghum mill.''
The candidate went off, and finding
the man he wanted to see, remarked:
Here, old fellow, you gave me the
wrong pamphlet. The next time you
cause me to make such an error I'll
have you arrested for malicious mis-
statement"
The pamphlet man pulled out his
watch, looked at it, and when the can
didate left put it back and smiled for
fifteen minutes.

of a confederate company which had

at early dawn one day by company
of Federal cavalry. The men did the
best they could; they broke, ran, rallied
in squads and fired Some were
wounded and few killed. The Cap
tain ran on foot Gas he had lost his
horse) until he saw the crisis; then he
