Weather Reports.

SANTA BARBARA, February 23d.-It recon-
menced raining yesterday shortly before
dark, and continued at intervals throughout
the night. 1t is still showery, with little
prospect of clearing off. The mountains are
white with snow, and hail fell early this
morning in the streets. The mails from San
Francisco and the east are detained by the
flood in the Ventura river.
SANTA PATLA Santa Barbara county,, Feb
ruary 23d.-Six and ten one-hundredthsi inches
of rain fell here between Friday evening and
the present time, making total of sixteen
inches for the season. 1t is still raining. The
stages were delayed here about twenty -four
hours on account of high water in the Santa
Paula and Sespe creeks and the Santa Clara
river, which were impossible. Good crops
are now assured.
WILLOWS, February 2Sd.-We have had a
fine rain to-day, making the total for the
season ten inches. This insures all the early.
sown grain, and is of great benefit to the
late-sown. The prospect for the largest crop
ever raised in Colusa county is brilliant.
RIO VISTA, February 23d.-For the past
six days the weather has been cloudy, with
frequent light showers. There are at pres.
ent no indications of change. The rainfall
for the week was 102 inches, and for the sea-
son, 7.06 inches. The crop prospects are
highly encouraging. The Montezuma Hills
are green with sprouting wheat, and farmers
report sufficient depth of moisture to insure
a crop. The island and tule lands are again
cultivated to considerable extent, and give
promise of an ABUNDANT yield.
PETALUMA February 23d.-The weather is
cloudy and damp, with every prospect of a
continued rain.
CAsTRovTLLE, February 2Sd.-One inch of
rain has fallen during this storm. Crops are
assured in this vicinity.
Los ANGELES, February 23d.--The rain
continued to fall here at frequent intervals
from o'clock on Saturday night up to the
present time, with prospect OF more. The
rainfall for short time on Sunday night
was heavier than ever known before. Total
fall since Saturday night, so of an inch.
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1880-02-24

The farmers have had weather after
their own heart during the week. 1t has
been wet enough to dispel any doubt about
the bad effects of the late frosts. Should
sunshine or mild atmosphere follow. the
whole country will look like paradise.
The confidence of farmers in the crop
prospect is seen all over the valley, and in
many places over the hill tops. The pillow,
the harrow and the seed grain have cover
ed some thousands of acres more than any
previous season. We may look for rich
results. and not without reason, for no less
than ten inches of rain have contributed to
the earth's moisture to date. 1t will only
need a few more spring rains to insure us
bountiful crops. ItGilroy Advocate.

Treasurer of Mono county, was heard by
the Supreme Court Saturday and the pris-

refusal that the original owner Of the war
rant transferred the same to Dudleston,
who, at the time of the purchase, was the
duly elected and acting Treasurer of the

from purchasing, receiving, selling or trans

Every business man and great
mary of Jul farmers, who have no
post office box, waste a great deal of
time waiting for their mail. Time Is
money, and when q box a be rented
for 81. 90 per year, it is surprising
that any nan will loose Is or 20
minutes every time he goes for
his mail. Moberly rents one thous-
and boxes-Me1ieo rents only four
hundred and fifty. At least one
thousand boxes should be. rented in
