A Family BLESSING.

Nothing adds more to the security of life of
happiness and of health than safe and reli-
able family medicine. Simmons Liver Regu-
lator has won for itself the appellation of the
iaVorite home remedy" 1t is adapted to large
proportion of the emergencies which occur in
domestic life. If the child has the collie, it is
sure, safe and pleasant remedy. If the father
is exhausted oyerworked, debilitated, it will re-
store his failing strength If the wife suffers
from dyspepsia, low spirits, headache, it will
give relief If any member of the family has
eaten anything hard of digestion, a small dose
OF the Regulator will soon establish a good d.
geston 1t gives refreshing sleep even in cases
wnere narcotics have failed. 1t is the best pre-
ventlve medicine, and safe to begin WITH no
matter what the attack; and in almost every
case will afford relief and effect a speedy cure,
without the aid of other medicine. No error to
be feared in administering; no injury from ex-
posure after taking; no change OF diet required;
no change of habits no neglect of duties or loss

BIRD ENEMrrs.-The great bugaboo of
the birds is the OWL The owl snatehes
them from off their roosts at night, and
gobbles IN their eggs and young in their
nests. He is a veritable ogre to them, and
his presence fills them with consternat'ol
ana alarm. One season, to protect my
early cherries, l placed large stuffed owl
amid the branches of the trees Such a
racket as there instantly began about my
grounds is not pleasant to think uponl
The orioles and robins fairly " shriebed out
their alright" The news instantly spread
IN every direction, and apparently every
plrd IN town came to see that owl in the
cherry tree, and every bird took cherry,
so that lost more fruit than if had left
the owl indoors. With craning neeks and
horrliied looks the birds would alight upon
the branches, and between their screams
would snatch off a cherry, as if the act was
some relief to their outraged feelings

discovered are associated with other metals,
as gold, silver, copper, anthony, etc.
CHROME ORES.
Mines of chrome are never in California
designated by special names, like those of
gold, silver, copper, lead, etc. The reason
for this is that the ore is found in lunches

The grand elimination of placer mining
is the hydraulic method. Hydraulic

reservoirs, called pressure boxes" and

pressure to the auriferous deposits, and
projected in powerful streams through noz
zles four to nine inches in diameter, agains,

blasts in which hundreds of kegs of pow
der are employed in single operation
As far as / can learn this is modern and
a California invention. All the details Of
hydraulic mining, as conducted in Cali
fornia, are described in the second annual
report of this Office. So powerful is the
force used IN hydraulic mining that vast
quantities of earthly matter are transferred
from the banks to the beds of the rivers
causing inconvenience and loss to the agri-
culturists below, for which reason hy-
draulic mining has been practically sus-
pended in the State, to the great loss of the
community and distress of the miners
formerly employed: besides destruction Of

Drift mining is another form of place

AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES AND PRODUCTS
/ Thirty-five wears ago agriculture was al
most unknown in California. Now it is
the mainstay of State industries. both pres
ent and prospective. The adverse opinion
l have formed as to the policy of raising
enormous crops of cereals in California, &c

speak, by extracting from our fertile soil
| the elements of that fertility and sending il
out of the country, may be erroneous, but
| fear not. The facts. however, remain
The average annual production of cereals
| for the last five years may be seen by the
| following estimate:
4 Wheat a. O00, 600 bushels value $50, 600 OOt
Barley, 100000 bushels.---....-..-.- 100000
Oats, 900 0O000t

Buckwheat, $500 bushels.---...-...-.... 5000
The annual shipment of wheat and flour
| from San Francisco amounts to about ], 250, ,
600 tons, of the aggregate value of nearly
! $40 000, 900. One million two hundred and
| fifty thousand barrels of -four are made

Iron ores are quite abundant in the State
and are of good quality, but it is only late
IN that they have been worked to any con-
siderable extent. There is one well APP
pointed charcoal blast furnace in operation,
but as to the total production there are no
reliable figures at hand, nor can informa-
ton be given as to the cost of production or
the financial success of the enterprise; but
there is no question as to the excellent
quality OF the iron produced.
The output has been estimated at 5000
tons. Should suitable coal be discovered
in the State, the iron industries would soon
grow into great importance, and. as il is. it
will probably be found possible to import
coke or coal, or both. at rate sufficiently
low to admit of much larger production.
LEAD AND BASE BULLION.
Lead ranks high as one of the mineral
products of the State. The metal obtained
by the crude processes is seldom so free
from other metals as to be sold for pig lead,
but is generally to greater or less extent
mixed with metals of greater value or
otherwise, and is placed in the market as
"base bullion and sold TO refiners as such.
From 1878 to 1888 the yield in pounds was

Local Option.

The question of legalizing the
sale of whisky will not rest. 1t
will be agitated until the matter Is
definitely settled. Notwithstand-
ing the Iamentable failure of pro-
hibition-notably in Iowa, Kansas
and Maine-many good people be-
lieve in it. In our opinion the true
remedy is local option. Let law
be put IN the statutes permitting
the people of any county to say by
vote whether they will or will not
have dramshops. AS good Dem
ocratic contemporary says: "This
locallzes the matter and each coun-
ty will vote for or against the
adoption of such as its interest
seems to demand. If, as said by
those opposing the submission, pro-
bibition does not prohibit what
reason can be given why it should
not be adopted and if it does pro-
hibit and majority of the people
say adopt it who can find fault with
them or question their right. We
can see no valid reason why the
question should not be settled by
those directly interested-the peo-
pie. We cannot forever dodge this
question by delaying or putting it
off and the sooner our lawmakers
realize this and place it squareIy
before the people, the sooner they
will dispose of troublesome ques-
tion. Local county option should
be tried and If rhat succeeds we can
then tell better how it would be in
the state. ''-Carrollton Democrat.

The latest game to swindle the
farmer is played by man who goes
around the country claiming to rep
resent a large provision house in
Chicago, such firm being anxious to
learn of farmers their opinion of the
growing and harvested crops. This
takes with the honest tiiler of the
soil, and he proceeds to answer the
questions propounded. The sharper
notes down the answers carefully and
when he is through politely asks the
farmer to sign his name to the report
to give it more weight and appear
ance of correctness. This accom-
plished, the man leaves, and later
note turns up in the hands of an in
nocent purchaser.

The pisappearance OF Song Birds.

A Utica naturalist says that song
birds IN that region are fast disap-
pearing. The wren is almost un-
known, the bobolink, that formerly
abounded ON the Mohawk meadows,
is disappearing rapidly, while blue
birds, yellow birds, orioles, and even
woodpeckers, highoes and crows are
becoming scarce. AS a consequence
he says, fruit trees and all sorts of
vegetation are suffering from the
rayages of insects. Pot hunters and
bird-nesting boys are said to occount
for the disappearance of the birds.
