Barley-ouantity Of Seed per Acre

Four-rowe and six-rowed barley are
one and the same thing. In fact,
suppose there is no four-rowed barley.
Barley is either two-rowed or six-rowcd.
Two rowed barley is later and heavier
than the six-rowed. The sx-rowed barley
Will griminate in mailing quicker than
the two-rowed, and maltsters will pi v
more for it on this account.
We usually SOW two bushels of bari v
per acre. We drill itin, and at the san. e
time drill in with the seed two hundred
pounds of superphosphate per acre.
With us, superphosphate drilled in be-

possibly hundred, good brands of

and if you do not understand it, study

Barley does not do we'll on old sod
land. 1t is sometimes sown to advantage
on one year old clover scd. As rule,
winter wheat does better after barley

is harvested earlier, and there is more

Branding Cattle.

The subject of branding cattle at the
West can but interest all Eastern readers.
1t is a matter of Importance, for it is the
only method of establishing title to four
footed property. Every stock owner has
his brand, which is regularly recorded
and is well known. 1t is an immense
affair, as large as frying pan, and is
burned into the shoulder of the animal.
When the latter changes owners, the
sellers brand is rented, I. E. turned IN
side-down and burned on the hip, and the
purchaser pats his own brand on the
shoulder. Consequently, if an animal is
50 unlucky as to pass through many
h mds, he begins to look like Herald
war-map.
Every frontiersman always notes the
brands upon all the stock that he meets.
If you should ask one Of them if he had
seen red steer with a white patch On
his right eye, branded with dot in A
circle and two notdhes in his left car, he
would tell you he saw him Yesterday

was once an attache at our legation
at Frankfort in the days of the old Ger
man Diet. Our main business used to
be to celebrate marriages. A religious
ceremony was optional; if the bride and
bridegroom did not demand this, the
process was summary. They had each
TO sign and swear to declaration that
there was no cause why they should not
be married, and to pay sovereign,
which was transmitted to the Bishop Of
London, in whose diocese all our for
eign legations were supposed to be.
One day was sitting in the chancery
when an aged Englishman entered. Il
want" he said, ''you to marry my
daughter" At first understood that
he wished me to be the bridegroom, but
he explained that was only to be the
celebrant, and that she was to marry
Frenchman. 'ie is a scoundrel," he
observed. Then why" | asked, "let
him marry your daughterp" "He has,
alas" he replied, gained her affec-
tions; and if he does not marry her he
will run away with her." II suppose
that you are rich?" said 81 am more
than rich," he replied; II have an in
fallible system at roulette. This is my
daughters dowry; and it is to learn the
system that the Frenchman marries
her" "Well,' l said, "come with the
pair tomorrow morning, and we will
marry them" The next day they ap-
peared and were married. The girl was
a pretty blonde, but the man was not
precisely an individual to whom wise
father would either have entrusted his
ducats or his daughter.
After the ceremony the happy pair
went to Wisebaden, and the French
men--now the possessor of bride and
system-commenced toplay the latter.
Ii was an absurd one-a sort of progress
sion on certain numbers on the roulette
board; but the curious thing about it
was that he always won, and actually
made several hundred francs by ii.
A few days after was explaining all
this to a French Secretary of Legation.
He startled me by the observation that
while the English girl was the wife OF
the Frenchman, the Frenchman was
not the husband of the English woman.
II we told him this was afraid that ho
would leave the bride, who would re-
main in the singular position of being a
wife without husband. So we agreed
that the French secretary should send
for the bridegroom and practice pious
fraud. He explained to him that while
he was really married, he had violated
the law by getting married before full
filing the legal obligations, and that
for this he was liable to punishment.
The only way, he added, to get out Of
the mess was for him to be married
again at the French legation. Luckily,
the man knew nothing about law, so
the knot was at last eflectually tied
round his neck.-Labouchere, IN London

The late James Irvine left to his only
son, among other property, 10000
acres of land in one body in Los Angeles
County. This large domain Mr.. Irvine
bought jointly with another man in
1857. paying at the rate of 37l cents
per acre. In 1875 Mr.. Irvine bought
out his partner for s250,000. He has
since been offered 81, 200, 900 cash for
the property. There is valley of 20,-
600 acres in the the tract worth 800 an
acre or S2, 900, 600 for the valley. Some
small farms have been carved from this
portion and sold at this figure. On the
tract is a coal mine which is yielding an
unfailing supply of coal of good quality
for locomotive purposes, and is under
lease to representatives of the Southern
Pacific Company. There are between
1000 and 10000 sheep and several

Tuesday came promptly, as all Tues
days do somehow, and the parsonage
was crowded with delighted and ex-
pectant guests. The old women gath
cred in the kitchen. where Dame Laz-
arus was busy cooking the longed-for
supper, and hindered or helped, ac-
cording to their inclinations. On the
wide porch the settled men gathered
around Brer Lazarus and discussed
knotty points in theology, politics and
agriculture. The parlor was given up
to the young folks, and well did they
enjoy themselves. From far and near
the beaux and bellies had come, dressed
in their best attire, redolent of patchouly
and kerosene oil. Of all the happy
crowd, Miss Leah was the happiest and
gayest. Apparently she had no idea of
her impending doom. Long years af-
terward June said that he had noticed
in her game eye tender luster he had
never seen there before. There were
the usual games of Copenhagen and
forfeits-any thing that had kissing in
it. Soft bosoms rose and sunk, soft eyes
looked love to eyes that spoke again,
soft heads-but stop, this is an DER true
tale.
June was the gayest of the gay, and
his attentions to Miss Leah had been so
marked as to excite envy of the other
Young ladies, for June was known to
have bank account and good credit at
the store. He had kissed Leah repeat
edly, had slyly put his arms around her
waist and whispered sweet nothlngs in
her ear.
A tap of the bell and all fun ceased.
Laughing and blushng they filed by
twos into the supper room to the lasclvl-
Gus blessings of base drum. June and
Leah, were last, and as they were pas

the peculiar note of the whip-poor-will.
She smiled, and then turning to June

Fifteen minutes passed, thirty minutes

of her, or ordering June TO do so, when
our eyes turned toward a group just
entering the door. There was the truant
Leah, a wealth of orange blossoms on
her head, her hand resting on the black
clothed arm of Ferdinand Aristocrat Bel
