The shortage in the beef supply which
was caused by the great drouth of 1881
has been fully repaired by the season of
1872, and beef of good quality is again
plentiful. The pinch was felt, however,
until last Fall. The potato famine of
last year still has nm effect upon the
market, and potatoes are much higher
than they might be, considering the
crop of last season. One good result of
the shortage was the importation of an
excellent variety of potatoes from Scot

ported potatoes and the result is an ex-

Couraged to believe we can successfully carry
out long cherished desire to furnish the
Weekly Blade direct to subscribers, postpaid,
for the very low price Of One Dollar per

improvements at every opportunity, as has
been our rule. The Blade is household
necessity in every nook and corner of this
land, and nowhere can so much good reading
be found for the money. Any one of the
departments are worth the price of years

will run whole year, and Nasty never fails
to give value received. Just how much We

the world, the best editorials in the English
language, Science, Religion, Politics, very
reliable Markets, and, finally, the best House
hold Department for the ladies ever pub
lished, all of which, if published in book
form, would during the year make Il library
worth one hundred dollars. At one dollar

Only Little 0olored Boy.
He was just little colored boy, but
the announcement of his death will make
manyjhcarts sad, says the NJ o., Times
Democrat. For six years his bright
black face had been familiar to all call
ers at Trinity Rectory and to all friends
OF the family. He was courteous,
gentleman-like little fellow, and looked
on himself, as indeed everybody did, rs
one of the family. He believed his
great mission in life was ''to take care
of the Doctor" A short, sharp attack
of tetanus, following the most trifling
hurt from ono of those murderous toy
pistols, carried him off in three days,
notwithstanding the utmost power of
science and skill. We know here, as
none can know but those who live with
them, how close those dark-faced SER
wants weave themselves into our lives.
And when one is SO bright and truthful,
so honest and faithful and trusty rs this
poor boy was, the family attachment is
very strong. There is great grief at the
rectory and among the large circle who
have known "Tomsy" for so long. He
was "only n little colored boy" but he
had the qualities that make the true
gentleman, and he did his days work
well, and many loved him.
Snow at San Francisco
At San Francisco the last day of the
year they had n bit of snow squat.
Only about three inches of snow fell,
but that proved to render the place
city of maniacs. Old and young be-
came frantic with delight. In their en-
thusiasm old pioneers fell on one an
others necks and wept. so at least says
the staid old Alta. All the leading pa
pers had from one 10 three columns de-
scriptivc of tho snow carnival, and two
or three of them went so far as TO enter
INTO scientific dissertations on snow "as
snow" its crystallization and other
features, rs if it had been meteoric
shower, or some similar celestial phe-
nomenon. Snow-balling was MI the
rage, and the Chinese suffered fearfully.
Some attempts Mt sleighing were made,
but they did not prove so successful rs
to greatly excite the envy of onlookers.
Such a snow is very rare ut the bay.
There were falls of snow in San Fran
cisco in 1887, 1854, and 1867. but the
depth on this occasion was probably
greater than any former of which there
is any record.
