California is Declared to be a Nation
in Itself.
Colonel T. Sambola Jones of Louisiana
very able editor and highly educated
gentleman and member of the National
Editorial Association excursion, has this
to say OF California: "On entering the
State" said he in recent talk, ''we had
no idea of meeting a nation in itself, with
every cline, every character of soil and
the best people the United States repre-
sents. must say Tor our newspaper as
sOciates that our tales of this land must
be limited only by the .credulity of our
readers and the severest test of our own
veracity. 1t seems impossible to exagger-
ate our statements. a striking feature
on all sides is the noticeable lack of all
decay. Everything is progressive, and
fruits and flowers show the highest state
of cultivation. / think certainly that
Ponce de Leon's fountain of life must
have had its source somewhere among
the vine-clad hills and sylvan groves OF

Pierces Favorite Prescription, there's no
room for doubt. It's matter that can be
proved
With the facts before you, it's an insult
to your intelligence to have something else

And here's the proof: Among all the
medicines that claim TO cure wonlan's pecu-

the Favorite Prescription is the only one
that's guaranteed.
If it doesn't do all that's claimed for it,
if it doesn't benefit or cure, in every case,

ELECTRICITY ON THE FARM.
Everything Done by the Motor Except Il
Lifting of the Mortgage.

Everything Done by the Motor Except the
Lifting of the Mortgage.
From the ST. Louis Republic.
A vast field for electricity is opening I'D in
its practical application to farm work, and the
discussion of this subject in various engineer
ing journal has created considerable interest.
The Electrical World has begun the publica-
tiQn of series Of articles upon the practical
application of electricity to the various farm
operations and implements, with illustrations
of plant which Is situated in one of the finest
agricultural states of the west, and which shows
in detail how the electric motor can be made to
perform most of the work which the horse or
the steam engine is now called upon to do.
There are four classes of farm work to which
electricity is applicable: First, for power pur-
poses; second, lighting; third, heating, and
fourth, for the operation of telephones signals.
alarms, &c. Examples under these various
heads are numerous. For instance. hay, grain
and other products can be boisted by electric
power, which can also be applied to ordinary
elevators An,electric motor may run pump
ing apparatus which will furnish water ior the
drinking troughs, for fire purposes. or for wa
tering the garden, use in dairy houses. &c.
All such miscellaneous machines as thresh-
ers, grinders. shelters. hay presses. grindstones,
&c, can be readily operated by electric motors.
Ii Ia very probable that in time electric railway
lines may exist over the best agricultural re-
gions furnishing communication between the
different farms, as we'll small tramways on
separate farms, connecting the different build
ings, while electric ploughs and vehicles of all
sorts are among the possibilities

1t II stated that several Europesa manufac-

of their wheels. The aluminium is allowed with
Q small percentage of titanium. which is said
to increase its strength very considerably. The
following are given the results of tests of the
alloy and metal used for this purpose Tensile
strength of aluminium. % 800 pounds per square
inch; titanium alloy, 73. 500 pounds. The tensile
strength OF the alloy is very great if these
figures are correct. 1t is greater han that Of
