These words suggest strong points of Gallo
ways. Fourteen are shown by William Glib
son of Woodland. During cold rains, when
other cattle stand with arched backs shiver-
ering, you will see Galloways feeding as
though nothing was wrong. They are fat
when Others in the same pasture are poor.
The Major Domo of the great Tule Lake
ranch, with its hundreds of black cattle, re-
ported that he found only three dead in the
spring of go, when some herds lost 80 per

Inequality of beef is said to be the best that
goes into the English markets, because
1T is SO nicely marbled. The percent
age of offal was shown by test at the Chicago
Fat Stock Show. Three bulIocks had to be
slaughtered before the judges could decide.
Hereford dressed less than SO per cent, Short
horn 70 per cent, Galloway Il per cent.
Galloway robes seem likely TO take the place

much as the carcass.

WISE SYSTEM OF TRADE
1t is pleasant to trade at a store where goods
are sold at one price and on tair margin,
marked plainly on the article. That system
OF trade is now quite prevalent in Sacramento,
and has had much to do in creating such
feeling over the state, that a very large share
OF those who annually visit the State Fair
postpone as many purchases as possible that
they may buy where stocks are large and
prices low Then it is comfort TO think that
one can send child to the store and have hun
bring back as good q bargain as the shrewdest
trader. A great share OF the credit OF deyIS-
ing and Introducing this system belongs to {.
II. Gilman OF the Red House.
Those who devise such new systems of bust
ness as extend trade build up prosperity of
the city on basis as solid in proportion TO the
returns 1t brings to the city.

Milliners have the opportunity to advise

profit on the present transaction. Her policy
is to hold the trade of the house permanently
by assisting her customers to combine taste
with economy in such way that they will be
too well pleased to think OF going elseW here.
1t is altogether too expensive a process to
draw new customers to your store unless

NEW APPLICATION OF MECHANICS,
In the machinery department of the Pavil-
ion is an application OF the eccentric move
,nent to pumping machinery that promises
revolution in mining and irrigation.
Three cylinders are placed side by side and
their pistons driven by three eccentrics in
such way that the strokes are alternate and
the work is uniform, and the stream contin-
uous. 1t is used either suction or force
pump, and throws a large stream with very
little power.
1t is very simple and easily repaired
There is nothing TO break or get out of order
Friction is reduced to minimum Parts
are Interchangeable and easily repaired in
case of ACCIDENT. 1t can be readily attached
TO any power, as it works without any jerk or
strain. 1t is called Dykes Improved Triplex
Pump, manufactured by Stewart & Trow-
bridge, Berkeley, Cal.
IMPORTANT NEW INDUSTRY

Superintendent Murray himself are all made
of ramie
1t grows like nettle in damp soil Yields
about 5000 pounds per acre, and lasts for
many years when rooted. The fber is the
inner bark which is separated from the wood
by decorticating machine and from the gum
by a newly invented steam process called d.
gestion. This is cheap, does not iniure the
hber, and is the missing link that was needed
