SAN FRANCISCO. March 13th.-Hon. Geo.
F. Baker, State Senator from Santa Clara
county, died in this city yesterday moruing,
after several weeks sickness, of yellow jam
dice. Senator Baker was born in Cincinnati
in October, 1S49 he arrived in California in
1867, accompanying his parents and sister.
The family settled in Santa Clara valley,
where be grew to manhood. They were in
moderate circumstances, but managed to give
young Baker a collegiate education. School.
teaching was his means of sustaining himself
while in college and after graduation, until
his election in 1872 to the position of County
Superintendent of Public Schools of Santa
Clara, which he filed for the term of two
years. Meantime he took up the study Of
law, and was admitted to the bar. Lucky
speculations o few years ago gained him a
life competence, but he was to the end of his
days student and worker. In 1879 he was
elected to represent his county in the State
Senate, and at the time of his death was still
member of that BODY. He was chosen
President pro TEN, Of the Senate at its first
session. He was President of the Republican
State Convention, which met at Sacramento
in 1880 to send delegates to the National Con-
ton of that party at Chicago. The body was

The Manure Harvest.

In the midst of the harvest Of grain,
and grass, and tubers, we must not
forget the compost heap, in which we
garner and store the unsowed crops
of future season. The saying that
"anything that grows in one summer,
will rot before the next" is safe guide
in collecting vegetable matter for the
compost heap. When sods, muck,
and weeds form part of the heap,
it is not alone the, material which
we are assiduous in collecting, and
put into the heap, that constitutes its
whole value. The fermentation in
duced by the dung and liquid manure,
and the action of the lime or ashes
added, work upon the earth, adhering
to the roots of the weeds, and form
ing considerable part of both sods
and muck, and develope all admirable
quality of plant food. Hence this
element of the compost heap, which
is generally overlooked as possess
ing any special value, should never
be wanting. 1t has, moreover, its own
Offices to preform, in promoting de-
cay, in the formation of humus, and
in preserving, locking up, and hold
ing on to valuable ingredients Of
plant food.al 10 a j. q 9iaaa
The compost heap should always
be laid in even layers, and each layer
should go over the entire heap, for
thus only can final uniformity be had.
We do not mean speciaLpurpose
composts, but those made for general
farm crops, 1t would be well if
every particle Of dung, liquid manure,
straw, litter, leaves, weeds, ETC., could
be worked together into uniform fine
compost, and there is really no sub

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
From Our Own Correspondent.
New YORK, JULY 10, 1882.


Thirty-four million dollars spent in
new buildings is nice little sum.
That is just what we managed to
spend during the six months ending
June goth, and from all appearances
the amount will be doabled by Christ
mas. This village is certainly grow
ing very fast, and it is growing beaut-
full as we'll as large. In fact, in some
points, it is actually handsomer than
Paris, though in other features it is
possible we may never approach that
CAV city. There is one thing certain,
every American ought to see New
York once in his life if he wants to
die happy.
Sullivan, the prize fighter, has been
developing traits Of disinterested gen.
crosby which have won him friendly
consideration even among people who
abhor his horrid trade and despise
the set who pursue it. He has been
offered opportunities to fight for very
large sums, and it would seem this
would mean opportunities to win
them. He has contented himself with
offering TO "knock out" his oppon-
ents in few rounds with soft gloves
first. Thus they can't lose any money,
and can fight him with fists If inclined
after the trial. The soft gloves have
sufficed SO far. He presents his dis
comfited adversaries with green
back salve and rejoices in the gate
money. Perhaps in the long run this
will pay better than fighting. 1t must
be more comfortable for the strong
man.
The Irish patriot, Davitt, held a
grand reception at Union Square on
Wednesday evening. The workmen
nearly got themselves into condition
for riot on account of supposed
refusal to allow them to meet. II
turned out they needn't have gone
off on half cock, as the delay in the
permit arose from the absence of the
Park Commissioners. Whatever we
may think of the Irish question, it is
certain that Davitt's idea for curing
it is delusion. The NATURALIZATION
Of land is to-day practiced on great
scale in British India, Egypt and
Russia, with the result that the par
ties affected are more miserably poor

stantial reason why this should not

might perhaps be well to make
special hen-manure compost for corn

turnips, by the addition Of a large
percentage of bone-dust. All this
may be done--establish once the rule
to compost everything of manurial
value, and we have in prospect an
abundance of farm-made fertilizers
at all times, and for all crops-vic-
tory over weeds, a good place for
decomposable trash of all kinds, a
sacred burial ground for all minor
animals and poultry, whose precincts
need never be invaded. There will

The latter part Of summer is often
very trying to live stock. Pastures
are short, old grain is high, the new
not yet fit to feed. Milk may be in
great demand and the farmer loath
to cut in upon his corn fodder, in
tended for curing, to feed off the
aftermath; he is lucky who can turn
his young stock of cattle and horses
into mountain or high wooded pas
lures, where they will have water and
may make at least half living upon
underbrush, etc. Early sowed fodder
corn comes in we'll now for mich
COWS, and there is really no other
good use for it. Ifcut for curing it
is hard to dry without molding and
decaying, and ifleft to stand until
after the middle of September, when
il will cure we'll, it will be as woody
and tough as "corn stalks" When
fed to mich COWS, fodder corn ought
to be cut short and sprinkled with
two to four quarts of corn meal per
COW each day. There will then be
no complaint of the quality or the
quantity of the milk. If these are
fed without the meal, the milk will
surely be thin, and the COWS are
exhausted by the increased flow,
and soon fall off in yield.
Horses in pasture are often ex-
tremely annoyed by flies. If they
can stand when not in use in dark,
sweet stables, by all means turn them
into the pasture only at night. Gnats
and mosquitoes are Of little annoy
ance to horses, but the larger day
flies, and the Gst,uS, or Bot-fy, set
them almost crazy.
Ewes and lambs are usually sepa.
rated in August, and while none Of
our domestic animals is more often
used as a type of maternal affection
than the eve, yet the agony Of sepa'
ration will be of short duration, and
not especially painful if the two
flocks, dams and lambs, can be
pastured so far apart as not to hear
each others calls. 1t is we'll to put

In pursuance of the policy 50 wisely
inaugurated last winter by DR.. Loring,
Commissioner of Agriculture, that gen.

programme for a series of meetings to
be held in January. Commencing
Tuesday, the 23d, two days will be de-

leges and societies and the genera,
principles of farming; Thursday and
Friday, the 25th and Goth, will be de.
voted to the animal industries of the
country; and Monday the goth, the cot
ton industry will be taken up. The
topics suggested for the animal indus
try branch of the meeting are as fol-
lows:
LIST. The breed, shape, size and tenn
per of the horse best adapted to the
United States.
I'd. The breeding and feeding of beef,
and the supply of the market Herewith.
Sd. Sheep best adapted to American
agriculture, and the profit of WOOL
growing in various sections of the
country.
4th. Swine best adapted to Western
farms and the market.
9th. The question of au American
representative to the International ex-
hibtion of animals at Hamburg in july,
1888, which has been referred to this
department, will be discussed.
9TH. The transportation of cattle to
home and foreign markets.
We hope stock breeders, and all es-
pecially concerned in this industry,
will sec to it that each locality is well
represented. And we wish TO especial
ly impress upon the minds of those who
see the importance of securing legisla-
ton from Congress to prevent the
spread of contagious diseases among
our farm stock that this will be prop.

voices heard in Washington. BY all
