Terrible Floods in China.

SAN FRAScIsco, CAL, Feb. Ga letter
from Shanghai gives the details of terrible
floods and famine which have prevailed re-
Gently in the interior districts Of Northern
China.
The Governor General Of Ii. Hing Chang
reports that the people of Schuan have suf-
fered terribly by flood, which destroyed tenn
pies, bridges and city walls in no less than ten
districts In Wen. Chuan the loss of life will
reach fully one thousand. Immediately fol
lowing the flood at Poi Chang fire broke out
and destroyed thirty-fve houses. In three
other places houses were burned to the num-
Der of two hundred. The suffering among the
poor is something terrible. The roads every
where are difficult of passage, and crowds of
starving wretches are on their way to Shang-
hal, and how to deal with them will be an
anxious and difficult problem for those in
power to solve. Corn and millet are selling
at the fairs along the great road to Paotin and
San 81 at exactly double the price of one year
ago. Kaoliang stalks for fuel cannot be had
at any price, and for building purposes they
bring eighty cash -four cents) per stalk. Cot
ton, one of the staple products near Cho Con.
is an entire failure this year, thus bringing up
the price beyond the purchase of the poor.

DUBLIc SALES.

The prospect is that personal property sales
in February and March will be numerous.
How to get the largest attendance and the
best prices is matter for consideration by
all who propose TO make sale.
Past experience has shown that the man
with the best material does not always get the
best prices, simply because he neglects the
best way to get the most bidders. The sale
with plenty of bidders is always the best.
The farmer asks, how can we get bidders
The answer is easy. Tell the people about
your sale, its date and all you will offer. Let
everybody in the county know OF it. Let
them hear about it once week for one, two
or three weeks And how can he do this?
Well if you want it known that your daughter
is married or your mother-in- law is dead, or a
fair or festival is to be held, or a church to be
dedicated, how do you proceed to inform
everybody? You put it in the ARYopATE.
How do you let people know you have the
| biggest potatoes, or the best grain, or the
longest corn stalks, or the biggest hogs? 1ou
put the fact in the ADVOCATE. How do you
find out that your friend is i'll, or has gone
visiting, or is building new house, or has
met with an accident or found good fortune?
You learn it through this paper.
Well, then, il you want an army of good
bidders at your sale just put your invitation
in the ADVOCATE. OF course we viii charge
you something for our work. The eircnla-
ton of the ApYoe4Tn is far greater than any
other papaF in the county, 1t goes every
where. People of all partiea and beliefs take
it. 1t reaches the best buyers in the county,
and it has subscribers in the adjoining coun-
ties. An advertisement of sale in its
columns will reach ten times as many people
as read hand bill, though the latter are val
4 liable, and the best that can he gotten in this
\ section are to be obtained 81
