The Coming Cattle Feed.

At FL Caion Land Company's office can
To seen samples OF evergreen millet
grown by Geo. A. Cowles, measuring
over seven feet, grown in seven weeks
from planting. The entire field, OF about
two acres, averaged over five feet and
was cut yesterday. Mr.. Cowles expects
to cat it again in four or five weeks. He
has been fortunate in getting fine
stand in this his first attempt. This was
grown on what is known as second river
bench, and demonstrates that thousands
of acres of similar land in this county
can be utilized for this purpose that is
now completely given over TO weeds and
saltgrass. Cattle, horses and hogs eat it
with avidity, the latter fattening rapid
ly ON the roots. With feed that gives
during the summer, every forty-fve
days,a cutting Of five feet Of fodder above
ground and in winter months two feet
Of feed below ground the future Of this
county as stock producing section will
still maintain its reputation. MIR. Cowles
has planted roots of the millet at various
places over the billy portions of his
ranch, and finds it making fine growth
but not as much as on lower bench,
showing, however, about two feet
growth on hills.
This evergreen millet, or Johnson
grass, in many sections OF the Southern
States, is fast Transforming their System
Of feed and pasturage, and the expert
ments of Mr.. Cowles, of FL Cajon, MFR.

Mr. H. H. Grid. Of Monserrate Rancho,

Lay the Pavements.

Why is it that there are not more
stone cutters in this city? There are
many blocks Of pavement that are wait
ing for granite curb stones. and they are
being produced very slowly. 1t is said
that there are only eight men at work at
the quarry when there should be fifty
of them. There should be miles of side
walk laid in this city before the winter
rains set in. The northeast and south
east corners of First and Spring street
should be improved Immediately. There
is no propriety in leaving these promi-
nent corners in the central part of the
city in such deplorable condition.
Main street and Spring street should
have their sidewalks paved with asphalt
tum or concrete as far south as Third
street before the rainy season sets in.
Main street should also have a similar
pavement as far as the Plaza, on the
North. These things should net be post
poned but finished as soon as possible.
Los Angeles should be the best paved
city in the world. Why can it not be?
The material is all here for the work,
and we certainly can afford to lay it
down

Texas Beef.

The great reservoir from which has
been drawn the bulk of the cattle which
are now becoming so abundant in all our
Western Territories is the State of Texas.
In 1870 one seventh Of the horned cattle
in the United States was found within
its borders, and it outnumbered the 40.
gregate OF those of all other States and
Territories west OF the Missouri, Cali
fornia aud the Pacific Coast included.
This ratio was slightly changed by the
statistics of 1850, the State representing
somewhat less than one eighth of the
whole number, while it still contained
more than all the others mention
ed above. From this source of
supply has been drawn the great bulk
of the range cattle now to be found on
the public lands east of the Rocky
Mountaius-an industry which has
grown to huge proportions, and yet
dating back in these States and Terri.
tories few years only. As an evidence
of this we note that in 1870 the number
given for Montana, Wyoming and Colo
RADIO was little less than $50, 600 Ten
years later Wyoming alone equaled
this, while the three together aggregated
nearly 100000. We do not doubt that
an accurate census to day would more
than double these figures.
To Texas. then, we must still look for
the supply from which to draw recruits
to further develop the capabilities of the
northern ranges. Like the tide of im-
migration which is daily landing thou
sands Of foreigners on the shores of the
New World. more than equaling the
relative birth increase, so the annual
cattle drive from Texas must yet be the
base of supplies for all the country
north.

off again, aud losing his balance fell to
the sidewalk. His scalp was badly cut,
one of his toes broken and the others in

dazed, half conscious condition, and
from the track Of blood through the hall
ways and on the stairs of the Ancker
Block it was evident that he had been
wandering around in the effort to regain

ing the saloons OF the city to be closed

ness, but it is claimed that the City
Council has no such right, and cannot
direct how many hours man may con.
duct his business, either in setting type
or in managing saloon, or in any other
occupation. The parties who have paid
the city license for the privilege of
doing business will select their own
hours for doing the same, whether those
hours are in the daytime or in the night.
The Council can abate nuisance, bat
cannot prescribe the time in which
man shall do his own work. That was
the opinion gathered yesterday among
the business men of the city. There
will be plenty of lawsuits and expenses
If the action of the Council is attempted
to be enforced. From the temper of the
people there will be fun ahead.

Fret Case in Justice court High

EDITOR HERALD:--0ur peaceful burg
has been having gay old time over the
first case ever tried in Justice Court in
Pasadena. One VIM. J. Raggett had
little unpleasantness with band OF
Cinnamon aud succeeded in cleaning out
the whole gang. much to the edificaiion
of the entire crowd of spectators. Inas.
much as we have full fedged Justice
Of the Peace in the person of Romayne
Williams, who needs little practice to
keep his hand in, complaint was
sworn out for the arrest OF the man Rag.
gets When he was brought into Court to
answer, etc., His Honor appointed
IL. G. Price as Constable for the oc-
casion and F. Ward for clerk Of the
Court and ex-officio bailiff. The Court
being duly organized, Bailiff Ward
called out the "Hear vel hear yell hear
yell! the Court is now in session." and
the crowd tiled in from every direction
to see this high old Court aud watch the
wheels Of justice grind under the new
order of things. Chancellor Ben II.
Ward was appointed as Prosecuting At
torney, while l.. G. Winston was an.
pointed by his Honor as counsel for the
prisoner, and the fun commenced. After
little consultation it was resolved to
have Chinese interpreter. A big, fat
Chinaman. who could not talk much
English, was duly sworn in by Bailiff
Ward. 1t was resolved to have a Jury
trial and do the thing up brown. The
Bail.f swore tho jury first, when il &C.
Cured 10 his highness, the Judge, that
to make dead sure thing of it, perhaps
he had better swear them little him
self. Winston, attorney for the defend
ant, made motion to dismiss the ease
on the ground Of informality in the COM
plant, the township not being specified.
His Honor denied the motion, however,
when interest in the case began to in
crease. The bailiff then swore all the
witnesses and the circus commenced.
The jury, after an hours consultation,
concluded to find him guilty as charged,
with assault, not from the evidence ad-
duced at this trial, but on general prin
ciples, when the Judge sentenced him to
thirty days in the county Jail. As there
was no place to keep such a desperate
man all night, Constable Price started to
Los Angeles with the prisoner at 2 o'clock
in the morning, and the peaceful city of
Pasadena slept soundly. Everybody
here now feels secure as the strong arm
of the law is thoroughly established in
Pasadena. There is more fun in store
over this case, however. than was ever

Banana Growing.

Mr.. j. w. Potts few years ago pro.
cured some banana roots from Mr.. AL
fred James, which that gentleman pro.
cured in Florida. They arc called the
Cavendish banana, and are represented
TO be more hardy than the Asiatic varie-
ties and will endure smart frost Mr..
Potts planted these bananas in his gar
don on the hill, near Reservoir No. 4.
and has had good success SO far in ripen-
log them. Asample which he brought
to the HERALD office was delicious, with
slight tart flavor that gives pleasure to
the taste and Superiority over the fee
Bile favored Asiatic and Sandwich Island
fruit.
The Cavendish is not quite so large as
the imported fruit aud the shape is more
angular, being three.sided with acute
angles. Mr., Potts feels elated over his
success and declares that all the bananas
needed ia our market can be raised on
the hills inside the city. A field OF
bananas browning one Of our city hills
would bs rich aud interesting sight,

Sorghum Sugar.

The growth of the sorghum industry
in the United States has been steady and
large. In 1859 we produced s, 600 600
gallons Of sorghum syrup. In 1870 the
amount arose to $4,000, 600 gallons, in
1880 to p, 440, 900 gallons, and in 1888
to over 10000, 900 gallons, although in
that year the Summer was exceedingly
unfavorable for the cane. The States
that have most largely attempted the
cultivation Of sorghum are Ohio, Mime.
soti, Indiana and Illinois. At this time
experiments are also being made with
the beet for sugar. and the farmers and
capitalists of the United States are earn
estly endeavoring to produce at home a
large percentage Of the immense amount
OF sugar now imported. This year Kan
sas is making extensive preparations for
the sorghum crop, having nearly $500
mills ready to operate upon the cane for
the production of sugar, while in Min.
nesota the sugar beet is largely planted.
