From the report of the Board of
Agriculture, prepared by Hon. Victor
Spear, we present the following as
highly creditable to the state in the
line of progress for the past year:
Number of towns reporting 243; num-
Der of farms sold during the year /, ,914
in Orleans county 231, in Caledonia
county 1877, in Essex Co., Sc; number
of SO called unoccupied sold about
200. Inquiries show that the "aban-
dcned" farms are high, rough and
rocky farms, the lands Of which should
never have been cleared.
In manufacturing industries $685.
500 was invested, more probably if
all had been reported, about 81 900,
900, with an increase of laborers of
ed in Orleans county was 100000
the largest sum reported for any
county except Windsor; fourteen
creameries were started during the
year; new granite works, employing
1924, 900 and 18O persons were started
in 1892. Industries of many kinds
have been started in most of the
counties. A large sum is being in
vested in summer hotels and board
ing houses. The report closes as fol-
lows:
AS a whole, it appears that for 1892
more farms were sold, more enter
prises undertaken, and more capital
invested in them than during the year
previous. This certainly indicates
healthy condition of both our agri
cultural and manufacturing interests
and goes to show that those who have
foreseen animproved condition of our
industrial affairs have been correct
in their judgment. Capital is seeking
investment in local enterprises. Ag-
riculture is moving forward slowly
but surely, and improved, certain and
economical methods are taking the
place of guesswork and wasteful and
practices.
So far as my acquaintance goes,
there is a hopeful feeling prevailing
in the State, and there seems to be |
good reason to believe that the up
ward course is but fairly begun and
that there lies before us an era of I
the extent of which is to
be measured largely by the effort of
each individual citizen

Hon. Victor I. Spear, in charge of
the statistical work of the board of ag-
riculture, has, in pursuance of his du
ties, sent the listers blanks for taking
statistics of the dairy interest, maple
sugar and sheep industries. The num-
Der of COWS and the dairy products,
quantity and kind of maple sugar,
number Of sheep and quantity of wool,
are the things wanted. 1t is the pur-
pose of the board to take these sta
tistics yearly. This Is one of the first
things the state needs-information
respecting her leading Industries. It
is the first requisite for intelligent
work in any plan for advancing the
states material interests. The listers
can contribute to the success of this
work by giving careful attention to
the work the board, under the laws of
the state, has undertaken.

Some Southern and Western demo-
Gratis seem inclined to find fault
with the disposition of cabinet and
other offices thus far made by Mr..
Cleveland, and are asking whether he
has forgotten what part of the coun-
try furnished the votes which elected
him. What especially excites their
grief is the fact that Massachusetts,,
in addition to a cabinet place, has al
ready secured the First Assistant Sec
retaryship of state and the London
Consul Generalship. Mr.. McAdoo is
we'll known as a former member of
congress. Mr.. Whitney has never
held an Office, but was active in the
Anti Snapper movement last year.

the following:

That the Holmes Mining Company
is negotiating for the purchase of
the Mt. Diablo mine at Candelaria
That the Silver Peak mines in this
county have been bonded by some
eastern capitalists,

these rumors but we hope that they
will prove to be true

There are a good many low-graGe
gold le1gss scattered here and there
over the State OF Nevada, but little
attention has been paid them here
tofore because silver was the first
attraction and low grade gold ore
was not looked upon as profitable.
1t is more expensive mining in Ne
vada than in California, but of late
we have got the thing down to a
very fine point here on gold ore, and
our Nevada friends might profit by
our experience and open their gold
'laims. Gophering," however, is
not the way to do it. The mines
must be properly opened and eco
nomically managed. Comstock meth

Sierra Forest Reserve.

Secretary Hoke Smith to-day ap-
proved of the letter prepared by the
Commissioner of the General Land
Office addressed to the registers and
receivers of the land offices at Visalia
Stockton and Independence, Cal, ,
directing them to restore to settle
ment entry or make other proper
disposition under the public land
laws of the public lands in their re-
spective districts which were tenn
porarily withdrawn from settlement
November5, 1891, and March II, 1892,
respectively, which are not included
in the exterior boundaries of the
Sierra forest reserve created by
the Presidents proclamation, dated
February IA, 1893, under section "a
of the Act of March, 1891. AS the
creation of the forest reserve has
accomplished the object for which
the temporary withdrawal of the
said lands was ordered they should
be restored to settlement entries,
etc" Upon receipt of the letter
above referred to by the local Land
Offices, it will be known just what
lands are permanently withdrawn
and what are relieved from the tenn
DOrary withdrawal
