California. 1t is their intention to take
large sections of their big ranch in

and sell them to all corners one after the

in California but in the world. It con.
tains 400, 600 acres, covers GAO square
miles and is twenty five miles square.
Some 800, 900 acres are in Kern County,
while the remainder is about evenly d.
vided between Santa Barbara and San
Luis Obispo Counties. AS private
holding, intact within ono Enclosure, it
is probably the largest in this country.
The value of the land when thrown upon
the market is being guessed at by some
of tho San Francisco real estate men.
AT a rude calculation it is estimated at
$50, OcO, 900.

''People who laugh at tho Maryland

Cincinnati Enquirer, "the importance
and proportions of the industry con-
cerned. There are nearly 100, 600 acres
Of oyster beds in the Chesapeake Bay,
yielding over 10000, 600 bushels of
oysters year, and yielding to those en-
gagged in the industry annual wages cx-
ceeding $1,000, 900. There are nearly a
thousand oyster vessels, with thoroughly
armed crews, aggregating five thousand
men. The Governor of Maryland charges
them with dredging for oysters on pri-
vate grounds, and they laugh at him and
go right ahead. Then he tries to disci-
pine them with his little navy of four
teen sloops and one hundred men, and
gets the worst of it. And next he asks
for Federal aid and cannon and howitz-
ers and Gatlings."

Feed!ng of Cows for Milk.

1t is an estabii,hod fact proved not
only by reason but by great many
scientific tests and practical expcricn CO
of dairymen that mixture of straw
with certain proportion of any rich
grain food will produce the samo results
us the best of hay alone would. Glover
hay is tho best standard iooi for milk
ing cows, but when this cannot lie
readily procured oat straw, with bran
and coramcal, will be found equally
good. The quantity OF bran and meal
required to mako up for tho poorer
quality of straw varies with different
cows, as the digestion may BIO better or
worse. But for an average good COW
two pounds Of mixed Iran and meal
added to five pounds Of cut oat straw of
good quality would be equal to five
pounds of tho best clovr hay. This
ration might BIO given thrco times n
day and would lie best if the straw ia
cut up and wetted and tn, meal mike
with 1t. THO manner Of feeding such
Tod Ter Is to cut tho straw in q cutting
machine as fac ms possible. to moistcn
with water, and then mix tho moal with
