1t would be difficult to find a region
where the ups and downs Of fortune
have been SO sudden and extreme az
in California. In its early days. before
its production Of grain was equal to
the demand, wages Of fagm hands were
high, but as production increased the
prices lowered faster than the rate Of
wages. A farmer employed an indus
trious Irishman for Eve years, at the
rate Of $50 month ''and found'-
board, lodging, washing and mending.
At the end Of the term he said to his

before the general quite understood
what was happening, he had agreed to
