Pleasure in California.

During the winter months the resi-
dents of the Eastern States make the
best of forbidding conditions and
amuse themselves in various ways by
a large expenditure of energy. They
work hard, but they have sport. They
must be careful to avoid the numer-
GUS dangers with which very cold
weather surrounds them. All of their
efforts at amusement are a struggle
against forbidding and uncongenial
aspect of nature. They simply create
all the pleasure they get; nature, in
stead of helping them, presents a
constant protest against their pleas
ure. During these same months the
visitor in California simply has to sit
down and enjoy more pleasure than
his most active efforts could have Sc
cured in the Eastern States; and if he
wants to double the pleasure which
mere inactivity affords, he can do so
with the least possible exertion. At
all times he has abundant sunshine in
California, for the rainy days are few
and short, and there is neither snow
nor ice to make him a prisoner. Flow
ers bloom increasingly in the garden,
and fresh fruits are always at hand
Watermelons and strawberries grace
his Christmas dinner.
All along the coast of California the
summers are cold enough to make
wooden clothing comfortable. In the
Eastern States the wretched inhabi-
tant wears the thinnest of clothing
and then suffers from the heat. The
Californian goes camping or strolling
through the woods with no fear of a
drenching, for the California summers
are rainless. The mountain scenery
is of infinite variety and unapproach-
able majesty and beauty. Large and
elegant hotels abound at all the sea-
side resorts. Splendid vineyards and
orchards exist everywhere, and the
most gorgeous wild flowers abound.
All the most beautiful resorts and
Wild retreats of California are reached
by the lines of the Southern Pacific
Company. Any of these agents of
the company will give information on
this subject: e. Hawley, Assistant

The Keystone of the Arch

In the ediflce of health is vigor
which means not merely muscular en-
ergy, but an active discharge of the
various functions of the body, such as
digestion, secretion of the bile, the
action of the bowels, the circulation
of the blood. Nothing more actively
and thoroughly contributes to the
united performance of these functions
than the renowned tonic and regula-
tor, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The
result Of its use is a speedy gain in
strength, together with the agreeable
consciousness that the tenure of life
is being strengthened one is
laying up store of vitality against
the unavoidable draughts which old
age makes upon the system. The
fortifying influence of the Bitters CON
stitute it reliable safeguard against
malaria, rheumatism and kidney
trouble. Appetite and sleep improve
bg its use, and it protects the system
from the effects of cold and damp.

METHODS OF SEEDING.
The Comparative Merits of Broadcasting
Versus Seeding with a Drill.


The Comparative Merits of Broadcasting
Versus Seeding with a Drill.
There is strong suspicion among
many practical farmers that the advan-
tages Of the grain drill for seeding have
been oyerestimated. American Cultiva-
tor believes that the drill simply as a
reeder has not the superiority over
broadcast seeding that it had when first
introduced, and for these reasons: The
ground is now, with better implements
for cultivation, in much finer filth than
it was formerly the custom to put it.
If the ground is poorly prepared, the
drill can do the work better than is
possible by hand sowing. 1t will cover
the seed and more evenly than it can be
covered in any other way. It also has
the advantage for winter grain that the
seed was deposited in a hollow, with
the drill ridge on either side helping to
hold the snow over the plant.
Danger of covering seed too deeply is
not appreciated as it should be- Drills
ought to have even wider tires than are
now common, for in going over we'll
fitted seed beds they will sink down too
deeply. Rolling with a heavy roller
will, to some extent, remedy this evil.
For winter grain the roller should be
used twice or more, alternating with
the drag and finishing with the smooth
ug harrow. On ground thus prepared
me drill wheels, if broad tired, will not
sink in deeply, and TIE tubes may be
set to put the seed in at very shallow
depth.
This is also good for spring grain,
which is nearly always drilled too deep
" 1t is indispensable with grain that
has to pass through winter and spring
with the sudden alterations of freezing
and thawing lifting the soil up at night
and letting it fall when thawed out
during the day. Unless the grain roots
are horizontal and near the surface they
cannot live through such usage To
have the grain roots thus the seed must
DO covered as lightly as possible for it
to grow, says the authority quoted.
The case is cited of highly success
full farmer who diseards the drill for oats,
but uses it for barley and winter wheat
as with these he considers a dressing of
phosphate essential to making certain
crop. The fertilizer is best put in with
the seed by drill On broadcasted
grain the mineral manure does little
good The drill Will doubtless have the
preference for those who wish to ferti-
lize the crop at the same time the seed
is sown But if ne fertilizer is used,
and the ground is put lin proper eondi-
ton, the seed can be broadcasted with
about as much certainty of crop as if
it were put in with a drill.

Just What's Needed

Exclaim thousands of people who
have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla at this
season of the year, and who have
noted the success of the medicine in
giving them relief from that tired
feeling, waning appetite and state of
extreme exhaustion after the close
confinement of long winter season,
the busy time attendant upon large
and pressing business during the
spring months and with vacation
time yet some weeks distant. 1t is
then that the building-up powers of
Hoods Sarsaparilla are fully appreci-
ated. 1t seems perfectly adapted to
overcome that prostration caused by
change of season, climate or life, and
while it tones and sustains the system
it purifies and vitalizes the blood.
