fitting introduction to the eharit-
able programme Of the evening.
The late Joseph Newmark was
buried from the family residence
yesterday afternoon. The remains
were taken to the Jewish Syna-
gegue, where appropriate religious
services were held, Rabbi Edel-
man delivering an address in
which he paid most eloquent and
feeling tribute to the many virtues
and exemplary character of the
venerable deceased. At the CON-
clusion of the services the remains
were taken to the Jewish Gene.

largest concourss of citi8ens we
have ever seen on similar ocoa-
sion In Los Angeles. They thus
testified their respect for the emf.
nent virtues Of the deceased.
From Mr.. VIM. Bradford, just re-
turned from Providence mountain,
we learn that the prospects of that
camp are as lively as those of ev-
cry other camp in the county.
Work on the Bonanza Chief, the
mine lately bonded by Mr.. Gillette
from Drew and others, is being
pushed vigorously ahead. A shaft
over fifty feet In depth has been
sunk and the ore increases In both
quantity and quality as depth is
attained. A tunnel has been run
into the mountain and an abun-
dance of good water obtained.
There are now over one hundred
men In the district, of whom some
35 are 10 the employ. of Mr.. Gill
lette; the others are prospecting
chiefly. Another mine owned by
Dryer and others gives promise of
being equal to the Bonanza Chief.
Messrs Drew & Co. are putting in
an immense amount Of stock In
their store, and evidently have
faith in the district. Their store

after the first twenty are complet-

Its treasury, besides q large amount

richness, one blast of two tons hav-

stamp mill $6s, 900 In one month.
OF course the ore was selected, yet
this shows the possibilities Of this
great mine. As many OF our read
ers are aware, the Indians massa-
cred the miners and burned the
company's mill, which was death

Farming in Japan.

Mr.. Thomas B. Van Buren,, Con-
sui General to Japan, in his official
report, presents US with quite q
thorough insight into japanese ag-
riculture. Having some 80, 600, 900
acres of tillable land, but little
over oue-fourth is under cultiva.
ton. Extensive field farming 10
almost unknown, and agriculture
partakes of the character of garden
farming, the average size of such
cultivated patches being not over
one-half of an acre in extent. This
land is made to bear both q SUM.
mer and winter crop, and. Mr.. Van
Buren, writes that "the thorough
ness of the spade or mattock Guilt
walton and the careful attention to
fertilization produces large returns
and preserves the bearing capacity
Of the soil better than our superb
cial blowing and rough fertilizs.
tion." Cattle being almost un.
known, night-soil is the chief fer
tilizer of the Japanese farmer. Mr..
Van Buren, believes that whenever
farm stock IL introduced and artifl-
cial manures made the result will DO
vast increase In Japanese agricul-
tursl products. Rice, as is well
known, is the great staple product;
barley is next and wheat last.
Rice planting takes up rather
more than ons.half of all the area
under tillage, being about 9, 500, 900
acres. About 40 bushels per acre is
the average yield, and the product
last year was 205, 900, 900 bushels
Barley was produced to the amount
of 6, 900, 600 bushels. 1t is made
into coarse -four and eaten mixed
with rice. 1t Is largely used In the
manufacture of sake. The quantity
of wheat made was SO, 600, 900 BUSH
els. Winter wheat is the variety
used, and the ground is thoroughly
MANFRED with ashes and compost.
All the methods of separating the
seed are of the crudest character,
the only improvements being
those derived from the Dutch In the
18th century. With such q subdi.
vlded system Of agriculture our
American agricultural machinery
would be comparatively useless.
The quantity Of sugar made in
Japan from the sorghum lie fairly
large-some $1,000, 600 pounds. The
process of granulation Is a still
very primitive one, though the
product Is excellent. It seems
possible that apparatus of q simple
and inexpensive character, such as
we use for sorghum in the United
States might find purchasers ip
Japan. In 1878 Japan grew 90, o00,.
600 pounds of tobacco. Japan makes
for European consumption some
sec, 000, 900 worth of cigars and ex-
ports to England and Germany to-
bacco to the amount Of $217, 900,
where 1t is used for cigarettes. The
chestnut is widely cultivated and
used as food, but it is not the chest.
nut of Europe, but the chiDcapin
of our Middle and Southern States.
As to es3ulent roots and tubers, the
variety grown is very large, though
our potato 10 only cultivated for
foreign consumption. The yam,
or sweet potato, is extensively
planted, and forms a considerable
portion of the diet Of the poorer
classes, being worth about one.

Just after the Posi- had gone to
press last week, Connors, the Neenah
diamond robber, was brought before
Judge Park, plead guilty to the charge
against him and was sentenced to ten
years in the penitentiary, with two
days of solitary confinement at the be-
ginning of each year The prisoner
tried to give the Judge little glucose
by telling him he was very young,
that this was about his first ofense,
and that if be would be merciful in
his sentence he would help bring his
comrades in crime to justice, but the
Judge told him that he would
sentence him first and then. if he
helped the cause of justice any, it
would probably be placed to his
credit. = Waupaca Post.
