STEAM FARMING IN CALIFORNIA

| The first successful attempt to
harvest grain by the use of steam
power was made by G.. S. Berry, of
Visalia, Tulare county, to whom
belongs the credit of having demon
strated that wheat could be raised in
this State delivery at tidewater at a
total cost of not more than half a
cent a pound. The first use to
which steam power was adapted
was in the construction of a traction
engine with which to operate a COM
bined harvester and thresher.
This machine had heretofore been
operated by horse or mule power,
from twenty to thirty two animals
being required to haul it. When
steam was used the harvester was
arranged SO as to cut swarth four
feet wide, two sickle bars or knives
being used.
Having demonstrated the utility
OF steam in harvesting. the next step
in natural sequence was to utilize
the same motive power in seeding.
This was found perfectly feasible,
and for several years the steam plows
have been at work to great advan-
tage. Ordinarily five gangs Of four
plows each are attached to the
engine. The plows used are ten
inches in width and the burrows are
made at least five inches deep. Each
separate gang is attached to the
engine with a chain, which are also
fastened to each other laterally by
chains, so that they cannot spread
apart, and none of the surface OF the
field is missed. The machine is run
night and day, no stop being made
for any purpose.
Two gangs of five men each are
employed. Three are required TO
manage the engine and the plows,
and two to haul water and straw for
fuel. No stop is made to supply
these necessaries, the wagons con-
tanning them being briven alongside
and unloaded while still in motion.
At night two locomotive headlights
are used, one in front and the other
in the rear, so that the engineer may
as all times watch the plows. A
"driver' sits in front and governs
the course of the machine by a tiller
attached to two small guide wheels
When the soil is in possible condi-
ton TO work, from seventy to eighty
acres are put in daily, though Wien
the condition is exactly right seven
gangs instead of five are operated,
and a correspondingly greater
amour, seeded.
Besides blowing the land, each
gang has a seeder and a harrow
attached, so that at a single opera
ton the entire process OF planting is
completed in addition. Whenever
the surface is so uneven as to need
leveling an apparatus is attached
which does this work perfectly and
at the same time the seeding and
narrowing is accomplised.
Now it must be confessed, even at
the risk of not sustaining Mr.. Gree.
ley's axiom about high priced labor,
that these steam processes are the
factors chiefly responsible for the
fact that wheat may be raised in
California DIT a cost OF less than $500
for tract of one hundred acres.
This includes the cost of the seed,
the price of sacks-for sa cks are
still used here-as we'll as the high
priced labor and the interest on the
cost of both ma chinery and land.

AN UNLUCKY GIRL.

She can fix her hair in fashion, and her manner s
rather dashing and her dainty little shoes
are just in style,
She can labber French and German, and ex
pound upon sermon, and set person
crazy with her smile.
In the tastes that are aesthetic, and in mixing
face cosmetics, they say she has no equal
anywhere,
And in chewing tutti irutti, she enhances much
her beauty, and the settings in her teeth
are very rare.
She can thumb grand piano, and can sing in
great crescendo, and her style OF elocution's
very trim,
She has college education, is the pride OF her
relation. but she still persists IN saying,
ut is him.

marched on to the tug Gen. Meigs and Just az
the sun was setting they sailed away, amid q
chorus of good-byes
One hundred men engaged by a private de-
tective agency appeared at different times dur
ing the afternoon i'll the private grounds OF
Health Offcer Jenkins. They were a sturdy LOT
OF fellows, and the rumor quickly spread that
they we're wanted to act vatchmen at Fire
Island One of the men said that he didn't
know what service was expected Of him, but
that he stood ready to do any sort of legitimate
work, no matter what it was.
JUDGE BARSARD's REASONS.
Judge Barnard of Brooklyn, who granted the
injunction against landing the passengers, was
asked by a reporter for his reasons. Judge
Barnard faid Il want these people TO be heard.
You propose to land passengers from cholera
infected ships in suffolk county. The people
object ard the health authorities Of the town
say they have the right 10 prevent il.
But the cholera experts at quarantine. in
terposed Corporation Counsel Clark, "say there
would be no danger at all to the people who
complained
Then why not hand them at the Bstterya''
asked Judge Barnard, If they are harm
less. why take them way off there to land
them?"
Because" replied Mr. Clark, IF they were
landed at the Battery they would spread through
the city, and, If anv of them should have the
cholera, the whole country would be exposed to
lhe scOurBe. On FIRE Island they would be 1t
least five miles frem any human habitation
and | do not see how there could be any DAN
ger" :.
But suppose there was?' suggested Judge
barnard. suppose you put these people there
and Babylon shonld be attacked aud the disease
should spread all over Long Island aud then
sweep the country. What them
Il do not think there 10 any danger" per
sisted Mr.. Clark. "Pesides, this is n serious
matter Here are 500 passengers, all well. con
fined on one of those small iroI steamboats,,
without food or means of cooking it and with
nowhere to sleep. Il is terrible"
Nothing to eat" exclaimed Judge Barnard.
Nothing to eat, Why don't the authorities
eend barge with provisions and feed theml
Arc the commissioners Of quarantine any good?
l am not restraining you from feeding those
people, and will pay for food for them myself,
if it is necessary"
But there Is TO way to cock it" replied Mr.,
Clark. Those iron steamboats, are not pro-
vided with cooking facilities and the anthorie
ties are powerlesa In the matter We want to
put these people ashore"
"Those people must be heard was Judge
short as | could and allow the defendants TO
be served, but | am willing TO accommodate
you As much us | can. | will send word to the
other side, and if they can be got here will
hear argument tomorrow morning at 3 o'clock.
That is the best can do"
Judge Barnard declined to saw for publica-
ton anything further than what he had said to
the lawyers.

LIKE THE RIGGIN CASE.
Seaman Reilly Killed Because He Was al
America

Seaman Reilly Killed Because He Was an
American.
The latest advices received from Genoa Italy.
regarding the murder of Frank Reilly, the sea
man of the United States steamer Newark who
was killed on the night of September in a
lodging house in Genoa, show that national ami
mostly against Americans was The cause of the
crime. The proprietor of the lodging house.
when the Newarks men applied to him for
lodgings, used most abusive language to them
simply because they were Americans. One of
those present, knowing the proprietor, advised
the men that il was unsafe for them to remain
in the place.
All the sailors started for the door, whereupon
the proprietor, with knife in each hand
sprang toward Reilly and stuck both the
weapons in his back. Reilly staggered to the
street, where he fell and died in few minutes.
The murder entirely unproyoksd. and
Reilly was killed for no other reason than that
he WAS an American.
In consequence of the killing of Reilly the
sailors of the United States vessels are not
allowed to go on shore while they remain at
Genoa.
