1t has been stated that a process has
been devised whereby very heavy iron
may be welded by the use of electricity
more quickly and solidly than by any
other method. The sheets are bent in
to shape and the edges charged heavily
with electricity that brings them to q
white heat In a very few minutes,
when the pipe can be passed through a
pair of rolls and welded very quickly,
leaving scarcely a trace of the seam. 1t
has been asserted by those interested
that the process does not require a very

an exception to my rule and to give
some hints for, early treatment in case

by holding a sponge wrung out in hot

A process for the production OF a re-
lief etching on photographic stones or
zinc plates has been devised by Messrs.
F. Krauper and L. Moser, of Vienna,
and patented in England. 1t consits
in sprinkllng the stone or plate bearing
the design with finely powdered resin,
and then rubbing the stone or plate
with tale; the resin adhering to the lines
of the design is then dissolved by cover
ing the stone or plate with a sheet of
clean paper covered with alcohol, which
paper In turn is covered with a layer of
damp paper. The resin dissolved by
the evaporating alcohol forms a crust
over the lines of the design capable of
resisting the etching fluids which act
upon the stone or zinc, thus producing
a sharply defined etching in relief, after
the stone or zinc plate has been exposed
to the action Of the fluid.

4 USEFUL TIDY.-An effective and
Useful tidy, covering the entire back of
The chair. Is made of ecru canvas. In
tho centre the threads are drawn longi.
tudinally to the width of two inches
and a half, and are finished at the sides
with feather stitch in gold silk. A piece
of dark green ribbon is run through the
beads at regular intervals. The threads
on the upper side o the ribbon are caught
by a single thread from the top to the
bottom. On either side this centre are
alternate stripes of PLAIN canvas about
an inch and a half wide. The first strip
has a herring bone or feather stitch de-
sign In pink elk on the canvas; the
next strip Is drawn canvas, edged with
pale blue feather stitch, a piece OF pink
ribbon running through the drawn work;
then a strip of canvas has a herringbone
of yellow silk; then there is a strip of
drawn canvas, edged with pink silk,
through which pale blue ribbon is run.
The outer edges are of plain canvas
worked in feather stitch with blue and
cardinal floss silk. The top and bottom
Of the tidy are fringed. For a sitting
room or bed-chamber this will be found
very serviceable and pretty, and it re-
quires far less time than ordinary en-
broidery.

THE SUPREME COURT.

a San Francisco contemporary declares
that something must be done 10 relieve
the Supreme Court of the accumulation of
business, and of the constantly increasing
burden Of cases. Very true. The Court
is swamped with business and likely to
continue in that condition under the pres
ent system. Two things might be done
and effect Improvement The first is to
remove the Courts headquarters back to
Sacramento, where it properly belongs.
Its location in San Francisco invites the
taking of appeals and brings before the
Court great deal of original matter. A
large number Of appeals are now taken in
San Francisco for no other reason than to
secure delay, and because it is cheap to do
SO. Remove the Court to the State Capi.

California Rice.

Last spring L. F. Moulton planted some
Caroline rice on some low land on Butte
creek. He regards the experiment as a
success, says the Colusa Sun: Mr.. Moulton
has some 5000 acres of land suitable for
rice The Crocker estate has 1000 or more
acres adapted to the same. Engineers
Gruusky and Wilkinson, the latter of the
Southern Pacific, will visit the Davis
Slough, opposite Princetown, and make
plans and estimates of head-gat Water
can be taken through this natural outlet
several feet above low water, and it will
cover all the land above named. The
water now standing in the lake into which
Butte creek flows is ten feet above the
water now in the river, and short canal
will take it out near Butte Slough. So
there is complete system for rice-grow-
ing. In few years we hope to see land
now called waste put to one of the most
profitable industries in which any of the
world is engaged.

Raising Tobacco.

Mr. Schuler, cigar manufacturer of
this city, informs us it is his belief, from
experience and otherwise, that as good
cigar tobacco can be raised in Sonoma
county as that imported, that he has raised
it on Russian river himself and was quite
successful. That the land here, with
proper cultivation, will produce from one
to three tons TO the acre, and the tobacco
will steadily improve in flavor and quality
for the first three or four years as the seed
becomes more acclimated Mr.. Schuler
proposes to procure the right kind of seed
and give instruction as to planting and
cultivation to any person desiring to try
the experiment. He hasn't the least doubt
about their success if they will follow in
structions, and the returns per acre will
amount up to hundreds of dollars 1t is
well known to all old Californians that to-
bacco grows wild all along the coast and is
indigenous to the soil. As some other
kinds of crops are becoming more unprof:-
able every year we advise our readers to
try tobacco from seed imported direct from
Cuba through the hands of reliable
agent such as Mr.. Schuler, as he is thor
oughly posted in the business.-Petaluma
