, JUST the poorest business that I'M
inspired men can engage in is pro-
phesying. And weather prophets are
Of all false prophets the very falsest.
All summer long, and this fall partic-
ularly, we have read their predictions
and then observed the event with ex-
ceeding amusement. They bit right
about as often as q blind man would,
and not as often as any sensible man
with his eyes open would by mere
guessing. Still there is nothing more
entertaining to the most Of people
than to speculate about the weather,
and they are just as well satisfied
when the prophesy turns out false a
true.

The ARITHMETIC MAN.-When
Horace Greeley was the editor of the
Tribune, and Manton Marble the edi-
tor of the World, greater dependence
could be placed in election estimates
than is now possible. In those days
every great newspaper had its "arith-
metic man." but he disappeared when
Greedy died and Marble retired.
What has become of him? If he is
not dead we hope he will be brought
from the obscurity in which he now
lives, and given his old place. There
is need of him. None of the papers
seem to have good guesser even
much less a man capable of doing the
additions and multiplications when
the election returns begin to come in.
In the estimates on Tuesday the pa
pers were nearly all wide of the mark
in regard to the result in Ohio.
Which of them will provide them
selves with an arithemetic man before
November?

Mn. BLAINE AND New YORK -
Now that the great contest oyer
Ohio is settled and all eyes are turned
toward New York, it maybe well TO
consider Mr.. BIaine's strength and
weakness in that State. In the first
place, it is to be promised Shat the re-
suit in Ohio in October is 10 criterion
for New York in November. In
1868 Ohio went Republican in Octo-
Der, but Seymour carried New York
in November. Ia 1876 Ohio went
Republican by seven thousand major
ity in October, but Tilden carried
New York in November. There is
no reason why Cleveland will not be
able to do as well. New York is
Democratic State, and in this fact is
an important element Of Mr.. Blaine's
weakness. There is double Repub-
lican revolt, Independent and Stall
wart, which is another element
against Mr.. Blaine. His character
will also count for something against
him. His element of strength out
side of his party support is the dis.
guised friendship of Tammany Hall.
Blaine's only hope in carrying New
York is in John Kelly.

Jack Rabbits.

A correspondent of the Anaheim Ga
zette goes for the jack rabbit as follows:
"If you will allow me short space in
your columns would like to call the at
tention of the farmers in our section of
country to very important item, which
thus far has been seriously overlooked,
to wit: a war Of determination against
the jack rabbit, which in my humble
opinion is one of the greatest nuisances
we have to contend with. Unlike the
squirrel and gopher, that burrow in the
ground leaving a mark or sign by which
they can be traced. or the coyote,
which comes howling when in search
Of prey, giving us warning and an
opportunity for defense, the rabbit, as a
thief in the night, with noiseless step
seeks our vineyards, orchards and gar
dens, and nips the young buds and ten
der sprouts. 1t is an easy matter at
this season of the year to destroy them,
while the mustard and grain is not suffi-
ciently high to protect them and they
can only find refuge in the small brush
and cactus. Now, would suggest that
some day be appointed and each school
district turn out every available man
and boy. and, adopting some practicable
rules Ly which to be governed, many
can be killed, thereby thinning them
out, so but little damage can be done by
them for some years to come"

A Worthy Object.

1t is well known that Mr.. ]. j. Phil.
lips lost everything, even the clothing
belonging to his family. at the first Of
the late floods. His laundry. situated
at the foot of Sansevain street, was the
first to succumb to the fury Of the tor
rent, and his whole establishment, to-
gether with his dwelling, representing
the accumulations of years of toll, disap-
peared in brief moment. A number of
generous and liberal minded citizens
have signified their willingness 10 assist
Mr.. Phillips to get once more estab-
lished, by advancing to him as a loan,
such sums as can be easily spared, to be
returned either in laundry work or
money, at convenient period to be
agreed upon. The various lodges Of the
A. o. U. w. have secured him lot and
other generous ones propose to assist
him to building and necessary appara-
tus. R. H. Hewitt has consented to act
for Mr.. Phillips, in the collection and
disbursement Of any funds advanced for
this object, and will call upon our citi-
zens in this behalf. Any who feel like
aiding in worthy cause, are invited to
contribute in any manner they may de-
sire. Subscriptions can also be left with

Plain Practical sense-How to

EDITOR HERALp;-In December con.
structed two very crude hatchers, de-
signed from some good points of several
others that had seen. | filled them
with eggs and they worked fairly well.
l kept them going from December lst to
July LIST, clearing in that time $3.50,
over and above everything, and that, too,
in spite Of the high price Of feed and the
fact that my chickens were marketed at
low prices. The highest got was SO per
dozen, and thelowest 1915. During that
time attended to my regular business
without let or hindrance. Believing this
was good return for the amount Of
work, began to look around for more
perfect hatcher, and my attention was
directed to the c. s. Incubator In June
procured instructions from j. M. Balm,
New Concord, Ohio. He is Secretary
of the North American Poultry Assoca-
tion. and will send directions for making
this hatcher to anyone sending three
two-cent stamps to pay postage. l had
one made that would hold $50 eggs
costing about seven dollars. My sue
cess with this C. S. Incubator was all |
could wish, for Immediately had four
more made. From these five hatchers /
have just taken out 1880 fine chicks out
Of little less than 1900 eggs / believe
am placing it modestly when say that
| hope to clear s250O by July next. and
still pursue my usual business. The
fact of the matter is that there is no
business as profitable; that is if one gives
it the attention it deserves, and no bust
ness requires SO little capital to
start on. There is no necessity
of men trying to hide their bust
iness any more than that of raising
wheat or cattle. 1.-THE field is the
world, and the world, like Oliver Twist,
is crying out for more. Poultry is get
ting higher every year. There are
thousands of young men in the country
who are teachers, clerks in stores, and
various other avocations, who look for
ward 10 the time when they can get a
start in some lucky business. The way
is here opened to them all, and as plain
as anything can be if they will only
profit by it. Thousands Of young men,
too, who feel dependent on some father
or brother, and the girls the same way
who could place themselves far above
dependence in one year if they only
would. Do not wait until spring, but
get your directions and make yeur
hatchers Immediately. You can make
them yourselves, and make them and
become familiar with them by using
them once or twice, and then you car
be ready to begin spring trade.

Petty Persecution.

During the prevalence of the high
water, recently, two of the slaughter
houses that supply meat to the city, and
were located on the opposite side of the
Arroyo Seco, found it impossible to take
their fat sheep across that wild stream.
One attempt was made to carry them
over in wagons, but the stock was
drowned. On permit from the Mayor,
some of the sheep intended for these
slaughter houses were killed within the
city limits, because the people wanted
the food and the stock could not be
taken to the regular slaughter houses.
Now it seems that rivals have started q
prosecution Of the parties that killed the
sheep, on charge Of violating City
Ordinance. 1t seems reasonable that
when ON emergency exists as that which
arose from the Arroyo freshet, that the
Board of Health could have prescribed a
location for slaughtering few animals
in distant part of the city limits, until
such time as the Arroyo was fordable. A
prosecution in such case does not look
to be the square thing. 1t is like the
prosecution Of General jackson for tax
ing cotton bales for breastworks to save
the city Of New Orleans. Public emer-
gencies must be met with no petty
spirit.

Who Buy Our Products ?

1t will be genuine surprise to most
of our readers to know that California
ships more products to ireland than to
any other country. The shipments to
the Seem of the Sea and Pride of the

land comes next in Importance with
$40, 0,3S0,6S0. China is next in size with
"a, $4,000 The city of New York
comes next with s3.7sl,3l4. The Ha-
waiian Islands are next in the list with
s2,977,73O. Mexico is sixth in the list,
taking 81, ,S77, SS2. British Columbia is
seventh, 81, ,5s5. .277. Australia is eighth
in size with 1917, ,34l. Central America
is ninth, S933. .O6O. To France we only
sent 5000, ass, and to the great German
Empire, since the American hog was de.
clared an outlaw, we sent only the bog
carly sum of $l0,094.
Bismarck is no friend to American
commerce and does not like to see the
yeomanry OF Germany coming to Cali
fornia. Without these annual facts of
trade people might imagine that our
trade, with 100000 people in Ger.
many was big thing, while in fact it
doesn't amount to anything of any con-
sequence.
The little island of Tahiti, with only
1000 people, last year purchased 1851,

The Calico Print has the following
from the silver land
There are now thirteen men at work on
the Gobbler, and considerable ore j.,
taken out that will average s75 or 500
per ton. Occasionally small, rich pock-
cts Of ore are struck that would mill up
in the thousands if taken separately.
Operations of sinking below the present
depth have been suspended for the pres
ent, and work has been confined to simp-
ly taking out ore wherever it can be
found in openings already made and in
new places recently opened. Teams are
supplied daily with ore from the com
pany's mill at Hawley's, and there are
also 100 tons and over in the ore bin.
The Eclipse mine, adjoining the Kear-
sarge on the south, owned by E. S. Bias.
del and others, recently milled two small
lots of ore at the Oriental mill that re-
turned about $500 each. A shaft has
been sunk to depth of about thirty
feet, and the appearance of the rock has
not deteriorated in the least since they
first struck ore, which was of fair
grade.
Last week Nichols & Co. commenced
work on the Tiger mine short distance
above the Garfield.
The following item we received on
the 9th ult. concerning the BONANZA
King mine of Providence: This land Of
Providence passed through the late storm
without damage. We are at least
assured OF an abundant water supply
for the coming year. The mine is look
ing splendid and continues to do well
as the shipment OF s26, 7s4 10 in the last
ten days goes to prove. The adjoining
claims north are most promising in their
showing; both are being worked.

A Moist Country.

Mr.. J. NJ. Howard, of Friar's Point.
Mississippi, in ordering some copies Of
the ILLUSTRATED HERALD. says Of that
country at the present time: 1--WE are
in the midst of an overflow that exceeds
all predecessors by about six inches in
height We have had three annual and
consecutive overAows in the Mississippi
delta, covering almost the entire conn
try and lasting four to six months. This
gives us an inclination to find better
country, so let us have the papers. and
l will read and pass to the neighbors. "
How would our people who complain Of
our little freshet, like q freshet and
overflow for half the year. and for three
years in successions 1t is no matter Of
wonder that Mr.. Howard wants to leave
that country. After reading the HERALD,
he can see the marvellous difference be-
tween the delta of the Mississippi and
the sunshiny land of Southern Califor-
mia.

SCHOOL STATISTICS or Los ANGELES
Showing Wonderful Progress in
Our Educational System-Urgent
Demand for Better Facilities,

The following report by L. d. Smith,
City School Superintendent, made for
the Board of Trade report, speaks vol
umes for our growing city. 1t shows
the need OF better facilities for the fu-
ture in keeping with the rapid growth
and urgent demands.
The school attendance has doubled
within three years. The average nnm.
ber Of pupils to each teacher is about IS.
The number Of classes should be in.
creased by at least 10. and the number
Of sittings should be fully 500 more.
Notwithstanding their crowded con.
dition the schools are doing good work,
and no pupils have been turned away.
The completion Of the new twelve-room
building on Spring and Fort streets will
do much to relieve the pressure upon
the schools in the central portion of the
city.
