TWO M|N|AT TURES
PROVE PUZZLE TO PUBLIC ADMIN ISTRATOR OF SAN FRANCISCO.
One Is of Lord Nelson, the Other of President Monroe-lf Genuine They Are Treasures of
 Art Worth $4O,OO0.

It seems like fiction, but as the true story from San Francisco goes two magnificent miniatures, worth, it is said $40000, have been fished out of a rat hole on Van Ness avenue by a nurse in one of the hospitals of the city.
 A few weeks ago sick man regis tered at one of the city hospitals. His name was Daniel Eisner and he was well-known in San Francisco as a buyer of curios, paintings, books and furs. After his arrival at the hospi- tai Eisner became terribly uneasy He wanted something; something which would not let him rest night or day for thinking of it. Unable to move himself he confided, in his lucid mo- ments, in the nurse. He told her of two small pictures, one of the great Lord Nelson and the other of Presi- dent James Monroe, hidden in rat hole back of his store on Van Ness avenue, which were worth thousands of dollars. He talked necessarily of the miniatures, pleading with her to go and get them for him under cover of darkness and to let no one know.
 When the nurse placed them in his hands Eisner's wild rawlings were stilled. A few days later he died. No relatives were discoverable and so his effects were taken charge of by Public Administrator M. J. Hynes The minia- lures were found concealed in his bed A clerk in the public administrators office thought the pictures were gaudy bits of junk and offered them for sale at $2.50. His patriotism, however, prompted him to ask 50 cents more for Monroe than for Nelson.
 No one dreamed of the true value of the miniatures. A buyer was lacking, even at the marked down price. A Market street natter who chanced to see them thought the pictures would be a good advertisement if exhibited in the window of his store, so he of fered 50 for the pair"
 So the miniatures, which are now al legged to be worth $40,000 lay neglect ed and unheeded in the office of the

 It was this statement that prompted the authorities to make an investiga- tion into the facts of the case. Placed in the hands of those competent to judge, the miniature was found to be of rare value. It was ascertained that the portrait was one of four paintings, the other three being in the British museum. All four are from the brush of w. Carnevalli, A.

HOW TO SELL HAY DIRECT.


There are two ways for TIE grower
to dispose of his hay under the pres
ent systems.
One and the common way is to sell
to the local buyer who forwards it
to his partner in the cities, who in
turn sells it to the local dealer in the
consuming locality or direct to the con-
sumner
The other is to ship his own hay to
the broker who sells to the wholesaler,
retailer, or in some cases possibly TO
the consumer.
Both of these systems have proved
unsatisfactory to both the grower
and the consumer.
If the grower deals with the buyer
he cannot depend on what the buyer
says as to the market price or other
market conditions. The buyer is quick
to report drop and slow to report
raise in the market price. He is not
buying for his health. You may beat
him on one deal, but he will make 1t
back if he does say he only gets so
cents per ton. He does not tell you
how much his partner at the other end
gets.
If you ship to the broker prices may
be good when you load, but when the
car arrives at it's destination, the mar
ket may be glutted and sales ruinously
low
1t is gamble for the grower the
dealer and the consumer.
The present system tends to induce
the growers and dealers to work in
bad bales and to a certain extent mis-
represent the quality of their hay.
By proper organization grades could
be established and this inducement to
dishonesty removed
Why not organize more and greater
unions among the growers and the
consumers, thus centralizing business.
Let EACH union make a price they are
willing to sell for or buy at. Let the
grower give his union the selling OF
his hay at a stated price just as he
would real estate agent the selling OF
his farm; the union can then go to the
consumer make the sale direct and es-
tablish a price that will not fiuctuate
as prices do now.
At the end of the haying season the
grower could figure up his profit and
loss account and at the same time the
dairyman could do the same for his
lish stable prices for hay, and in so
doing would make stable values for
land and dairy properties, and remove
the elements of uncertainty which now
attach to both branches of the bust
ness
Let the farm journals agitate this
question and see if something can not
be done to remove this element of I'M
certainty that now embarrasses both
the grower and the consumer.
Our union contemplates adopting
this plan this season.
Our members, as a rule, are not dis
posed to speculate on prices but in
stead would rather take reasonable
price and know what they are to get.
Growers and feeders let us know
what your opinions are on this ques-
ton.

velopment While our cities have
grown and developed with marvellous
rapidity and stability. our agricultural
development has fallen way behind.

of the section have been feverishly
active in the development of vast man

building the slow development of our
agricultural industry has been over
looked, and the farmer left single
handed to struggle with the road
building and land clearing problems
peculiar to our section. 1t is now
recognized that this unbalanced de-
Velopment and the paucity of our az
ricultural industry and product con-
stitutes a serious leak and offset to
our profits from other sources. To IL

present conditions, the ratio is stead
