PREPARING THE SOIL.

For most crops farmers and gardeners
do not spend time enough in the prepar-
alton of the land; it is a well-established
fact that all crops do far better in land
made thoroughly fine and mellow, than in
soil that is more or less lumpy; to reduce
the soil to this condition early in the sea-
son requires a good deal Of work, but it
is necessary work, especially for such
crops as onions, celery, radishes, pars-
nips and all sorts of roots; in coarse,
lumpy soil they make very inferior growth
and are rough and hairy in comparison
with the smooth and elegant articles
grown upon such well-worked land as
the Arlington gardens. 1t is not unusual
for these patient and skilful men to spend
whole day with pair of heavy horses
preparing quarter of an acre for root
crops. The plough for such work should
run deep, about ten inches, and should
not take more than eight inches of land
at slice; then the harrow is run over
the land, followed by the roller, and then
another ploughing across the first if pos
sible, followed by another narrowing and
rolling or raking of the surface by hand.
Sometimes even third ploughing is Civ
en-, but usually two will suffice. The
roller is valuable tool to alternate with
the plough; it breaks the Jumps and packs
the surface so that the next ploughing is
done far more perfectly than is possible
where the surface is too loose.
Where the seed-sower or hand-drill is
to be used for putting in small seeds
the hand rake is used after the last
ploughing, four or five men with long
toothed steel rakcs following the plough
and raking the Jumps, stones and chaff
into the furrow, leaving the surface
smooth and fine. There is no prepare
ton so good as this for land where th,
hand-drill and shove-hoe are to be used

A LESSON FROM cABBAGEs.

Almost everyone knows that cabbages
less they are hoed very often. Many
have also learned this crop does the best
if hoed very early in the morning while
the dew is on the ground. Hoeing. later
In the day, when the dew has evaporat-
ed, will not have the same effect. The
reasons appear to be these: The dew,
being covered with soil, is retained and
helps keep the earth moist. 1t contains
large amount of oxygen, which it took
from the air. These act to decompose
the soil and to hasten the growth of the
plants. 1t also absorbs large quantity
of ammonia, which is directly taken up
by the plants. Now, the same causes
ought to produce the same effect on 9TH
er plants, and it has been found by OBJ
serving farmers that they do. Market
gardeners prefer to have potatoes hoed
either when the soil is wet with dew, or
after slight rain. Observation made by
one of the best farmers in Wisconsin, eX-
tending through many years, convinced
him that there was great advantage in
blowing land while it was wet with dew.
Especially was this the case when clover
or grass was ploWed under. 1t was
found that the clover and grass rotted
much sooner, and that the succeeding
crops were larger and of better quality.

ROMANCE OF THE STAGE.

Ism Francisco Bulletin, September 17thl
Charles r. Thorne, famous actor, who
made his debut June, 1880. at the Old
Park Theater in New York, is In San Fran
cisco. On the Sth inst, in this city, he
married Mrs. Sarah Stark. Thorne be-
longed to class Of speculative managers
and actors. He combined the talent of an
actor with fair business Judgment in the
management OF theatrical companies. He
came to California first in 1850, accomp-
anied by his handsome wife, one of the
Mastayer family, SO celebrated for beauty,
and achieved considerable success. He
came eff and on at various times from 1850
down to recent years, and often met with
a measure of popularity acceded to few
actors. His matrimonial life was long, and
not cloud of unhappiness obscured it.
The golden wedding was celebrated snort
time before the death of Mrs. Thorne,
which occurred few years ago.
In lS49 Mrs. Kirby, the young widow
of Kirby, the celebrated actor, sailed from
New York for San Francisco. She was a
bright and promising actress, of attractive
person, but her merits had been shaded in
the States by the genius Of her distin-
euished husband. She made her first ap-
pearance at the Eagle Theater in Sscra-
mento during the winter of lS49A 90 and
received a great ovation from the play
goers. Crowded houses greeted Der per-
formances, and rich peouniary harvest
was reaped. She PLAYED standard parts,
such as Pauline in the LADY of Lyons, !"
and Lady Macbeth OF Shakespeare's cre-
alton. She combined with personal beauty
and fascinating stage presence an aptitude
for the management of theatrical troupes.
About 1851 she married the famous actor,
James Stark, and in the field Of acting
and managing the couple acquired
fortune. Previous TO 1856 the
Starks were wealthy, but they lost
through speculative investments and
in trusting unguardedly to friends. To
one friend, and this an actor, Mr.. Stark
lent $50, 600, and probably never saw dol
lar of that sum again. In time, however,
fortune ceased to smile on the various en-
terprises of Stark, some of which were OF
mining character, and after serving as
member of the Nevada Constitutional Con-
vention, he left this coast for the East and
there died. Sarah succeeded in acquiring
considerable property, and is presumed to
be wel.to-do. The published announce
ment of her marriage to Charles K. Thorne
recalls to old, timers recollection of her
triumphs on the stage and the esteem in
which she was held by all who had the
pleasure of her acquaintance. She and
Thorne were well acquainted on the stage
in New York before coming to California,
and have been friends ever since.

Partisan romance. Some people call it

the opinion that human life On the planet
Mars may be very much like human life on

but the organs OF sight may be SO much
more susceptible as to make the vision
quite as good. The heat is probably less,
as the polar SHOWS certainly extend further,
but by no means less in proportion to the
lessened power OF the solar rays. The
Professor agrees with others that several
remarkable seas-including inland seas,
some of them connected and some not con.
nected by straits with still larger seas-are
now defnable in the southern hemisphere,
in which, as is the case also with the earth.

In harvesting operations machinery ls
pretty generally used, though some OF the
latest improvements, like the self binding
reaper, are known to most Of the farmers
only in name. At this writing the bulk OF
the crop is stacked and the hum OF the

PERoUIsITEs FOR THE LABoRER
In harvest time. One is the Horkey,
bouutiful Sunday dinner provided by his
| employer. This is followed, when the
crops are all in, by an ample supper, to
which, in some cases, not only the laborer
himself, but his wife and children are in
vited. To the latter is also accorded the
special privilege of cleaning in the fields.
Some families make three or four dollars in
this way, which is quite welcome addi.
tion to their scsnty income. The special
friend and representative Of the agricult-
ural laborers of England is MIR. Joseph
Arch. Himself a tiller of the soil, he
has striven by agitation and other means to
better the lot of his fellow workers, and
under the extension of the franchise prom
ised for next year, he will probably be sent
to plead their cause in Parliament. MIR.
Arch is well known in the United States,
having visited that country in 1873, to
ascertain what facilities existed there for
the
ADVANCEMENT OF THE FARM LABORER.
Meeting this gentleman recently, l applied
the reportorial thumbs screw and elected
some very interesting information. A
large number, he said, had gone to the
United States through his representations,
and he had never heard any complaint
from any one of them. The objects of the
Agricultural Laborers' Union, of which
Mr.. Arch is President, are First, better
wages second, better homes third, polit-
ical power fourth, the payment of sick
benefits. Mr.. Arch reports that during
the six years of the Unions existence the
farm laborers of the country have received
ESQ, 600, 900, or Is, 000, 600 per year, ad-
vance in wages, As to better homes, since
1872
COTTAGE ACCOMMODATIONS
Have, he says, greatly improved, though
there is still much to be accomplished in
this line. In sick benefits and premiums
at death the Union has spent 600. 600,
that IS about 500 600, and has several
Thousand pounds in bank at the present
time. The land in the country, Mr.. Arch
holds, belongs by right to the people, and
should be held by the Government for
their benefit. He believes that the soil of
old England, if properly cultivated, is still
able to feed its children, but declares that
under the present system it does not yield
as much as it should by the value of $500,
900, 900 annually. This, he says, is owing
largely to the fact that noblemen keep
such large tracts for shooting grounds.
The whole system of land owning, he con-
tends, needs changing, and he feels sure
| that this much needed reform will not be
much longer delayed. H. I.
