purchased duck yesterday, which he
killed. In cleaning the fowl the man
found, to his astonishment, a nugget of
placer gold which weighs about 75
cents. An investigation made the fact
known that the duck had come from the
region about Alpine. 1t would seem
that where placer gold is 80 abundant

Don't 60 beyond the breakers, is the
advice of an old seaman to bathers. 1t
is easier to get beyond than to get back.
We fully recognize the fact as we have

couldn't tell whether we would land in
China or heaven, though the odds stood
in favor of the latter place and pools sold
two to one in favor of it,. We got out

Californians have fallen into the idea
OF raising large, coarse strawberry,
because it is large and can be more
cheaply raised by the box. They have
sacrificed quality to quantity, and as a
result, the delicate flavor that has made
the strawberry the finest fruit grown
has been lost in the effort to grow a
large, coarse pumpkin berry that no
more resembles the old-time, highly
prized berry than pumpkin resembles
Hubbard squash.
If some of our strawberry growers
would 60 back to some of the old-time
choice varieties of strawberries, and
give the public berry thatis worth put
ting into good old-fashioned. home
made shortcake, they would confer a
favor on the purchasing public, help to
save the reputation of California fruit,
and at the same time make money
