Found Health and Wealth.

AS showing the possibilities Of in
telligent farming in California. the fol-
lowing from the Santa Cruz Sentinel
is interesting. The piece of ground
six acres-is a little larger than two
San Francisco city blocks: when Il.
n. Stocking came to California he was
in search of health and living, but
encouragement stared him and his
family in the face. TO find employ
ment seemed impossible, so he bought
on the Branciforte Creek six acres of
land. He put the land out in vegeta-
bles. berries. and tree fruit, and a
chicken-yard. With the combination
of thrift, industry, and economy, those
barren six acres of a few years ago
now fairly bud. blossom, and ripen.
Last year three hundred and sixty five
dollars were harvested from patch OF
wberlies of oIe-quarter of an acre
and two rods. Just think Of it, We men
who let the pennies slip away, and who
cry hard times. In the winter he con
fines himself to raising chickens. Ev'
cry inch Of ground is utilized, and a
happy, contented family is the re
suit"

MANS MISSION.

It was generally acknowledged by
those who knew them that Jack New
Ign and his pretty wife had solved the
much-discussed problem of how to be
happy though married. True, they had
only been united, SIX. months, and per-
haps it was little premature to speak
definitely ON the subject, but to all ap-
pearances it did not seem possible that
the sunshine of their lives could ever
be darkened by cloud. Their affec-
ton for each other disguised the cynic
al and delighted the romantic.
1t was as ardent and enduring now
as it had been the day they were made
man and wife, and their intimate
friends were wont to declare that exist
ence for them was one long, continual
honeymoon.

their heads and said it was not to be
expected that such state of unalloy-
ed bliss could continue forever. and
