Fanning in California.
To an unsophisticated "tenderfoot,"
comiug from the east, where improved
tatodee of farming are in vogue, the
Methods pursued here at the west ap-
peer to be exceedingly shiftless, to sey
the least. Everything soma to be done
aocording to the rules , of contrary, or
contrary to all ettablished rules. It
-gleams where nature has been the most
bountiful in the bestowment of her
favors, there min is the most improvi-
dent and shiftless. The recklees, waste -
fed system of farming practised here
would bankrupt an eastern farmer,
Thetvalleys of California, constitute
the principal portion of the tillable, soil.
Everything here is - at the antipodes
from what it is in tfiohigen. Here
plowing and seeding are done during
the winter month& while there the
earth is bound with icy chains, and
wrapped in a mantle of snow -
For the pest two or three weeks the
valleys of shalifornitt have been alive
'with the hum of industry. Everywhere
from early morn till, dewy evening could
'ke seen gangs of men and teams turn-
ing up the fat adobektionotinceda-do-he)
soil, and nattering the seed. There are
net picayune operationahere at the west
every thing is done on wholesale princi-
ple& Ali the plowing is done with
gang plows; usually two gaugato each
plow and four horses to each. plow. 06-
easionally, however, five horses are
useel,two at the wheel and three abreast,
its leaders; Bach a, team will plow from
live to eight acres a day. The seeding
is- uniformly done broadca.st, with a
r dent sower attached to a wagon.
These seeders will sow a strip of fifteen
aces or or forty-five feet in width, four
horses to draw the wagon, with one
kand to drive and one to feed the seed-
er, will sow from forty to sixty acres a
day, But the marvel of dispatch comes
in when the harrowing takes place. All
the harrows here are from twelve to
twenty feet in width, and are propelled
by either four or eight honestabreast
With these teams from twenty to forty
acres are harrowed one way in a day._
The plowing 18 01 the shallowest kind,
not exceeding in any instance four
inches; usually about three to four
inches. The arguments in favor of this
Shallow oaltare are as thin, as the fur-
rowslices. The argument is, 'that if
the soil is attrred to a greater depth it
will not retaba sufficient moisture to
grow the plant! When told that a deep
mellow soil will absorb and retain
a greater amount of moisture
than a shallaw one, besides affording a
'wider range for the roots of piants in
search of food, they reply, "Such a prac-
tice may do for the east, but will not
answer here at the west." Of course
this is is mere assumption, as deep tillage
has only been tried in one or two in-
stances, and then with the best results.
-But "where ignorance is bliss "tis folly
to be wise," and plowing three or four
inches is so much easier than plowing
six or eight, you know. The great
object seems to be, how much land can
be cultivate& not how well it can be
done. A person would be considered a
small farmer here who did not putin
from eight to two hundred acres of grain.
A relative with whom I am stopping,
plowed, sowed, and harrowed eighty
acres with two- gang teems in eight
days, harrowing the ground both Ways..
But with this shallow culture and
with little or no nianure on the land,
and. a constant cropping, without any
rotation, the same -kind ef grain is,
raised for years and years on the same
hind. Yet enormous crops are realized
not unusually from 40 to .6p bushels of
wheat to the acre, a "volunteer" crop—
one whioh comes up of itself—not in-
frequently yielding 30 bushels to the
acre. In the Agricultural Department
at Washington may be eeen a verified
statement of a yield of 102 bushels to
the acre, raised in the Monterey Valley,
wtth specimens of the wheat on exhibi-
lion. There is another well authenti-
cated instance where 106 bushels to the
acre were raised in Pajero Valley.
These enormous yieldit were not from
single acres either, but from large fields
of from 17 to 80 acres. t Where there
are such large yields there is of course
leeore or lees waste. Enough is annual-
ly wasted on most of ,the grain ranches
kere to support ao eastern family.
•
Nearly every farmer has his specialty
here. If he sows grain he raises noth-
ing but grain. He buys all his meat,
vegetables, fruits, and everything else
he consumes. So of other branches of
husbandry._ As &general thing farmers
have an easy time here, Less than
half the year ia apent in putting in and
harvesting their croPs. They heve a
wonderful faculty of Making things
eaay. Catch a farraer going a -foot
while at his work I Not Much. Every-
body rides here. They ride the gang
-
plow and harrow ; ride the seeder, the
reaper and the header. In one instance
I saw a man driving a four -horse team
harrowing, riding a hone behind the
harrow. Down in Pajaxo Valley, the
ether day, a one-horse farmer sat
astride of his horse with his face to-
wards his horse's tail, sowing his grain
while his boy was leading the horse.
The annual rains which have been
looked for with great solicitude, and.
which are to California what the annual
overflow of the Nile is ti Europe, have
just set in, gladdening the heart of the
husband -men. The fieldo here will soon,
he clothed in green, fruit trees are tust
beginning to bloom, and the valley will
soon be“oovered over with oorn"(wh e at) .
did think I would give your readers
an account of ray first attempt at gang -
plowing with a gang team, but will have
to defer it for the present. I will state,
however, it was not a succesa. I suc-
ceeded, however, in dragging 16 acres
of oats one way in ten hours.

The Courtship of Moses Men-
delssohn.
A. thoroughly delightful incident is
that of the courtship of Moses Mendela-
echo, Fromet, the daughter of Abra-
m Gugenheira, of Hamburgh, admir-
ed him, but objected to his deformity.
He went upstairs and sat down by the
young lady who was sewing. They con-
versed in the most friendly manner, but
the girl never raised her eyes from her
work, and avoided looking at him. At
last when he had cleverly turned the
conversation in that (Emotion, she
asked him, "Do you believe that mar-
riages are made in Heaven ?" “Yes
indeed," said he, "aud something es-
pecially wonderful happened to me. At
the birth of a child proclamation is
made in Heaven—he or she shall rainy
such a one. When I was born my
future wife was also named; but at the
same time it was said, 'Alas she will
kayo a dreadful hump -back,' 'Oh God,'

THE ,HURON EXPQ,SITC)R.
I said then,‘a deformed girl will become
embittered and unhappy, whereas she
should be beautiful. Dear Lord 'eV,
me the hump baok and let the maiden
be well made end agreeable 1'" Seem-
ly heel Moses Mendelssohn finished
speaking when the girl threw herself
upon his neck. She afterwards became
his wifs. Theylived happily together,
and had good and handsome children,
whose descendants are still living.
Ensilage.
At the Western Dairymen's Associa-
tion recently held in Ingersoll, the , sub-
ject of ensilage fer cattle food was dis-
cussed. A minaber of -- the delegates
visited a silo on the farm of Mr. James
Harris, about a mile from Ingersoll,
which had been in operation for three
years. It had a capacity of 180 tons
and cost $500. Last fall the corn from
12 acres was passed through a straw
cutter and packed in the silo. Mr.
littrris estimated the cost of putting in
the ensilage, including cutting in the
field, -t $1 per tont The 12 acres of
corn6
la
alks prepared in this way were
auffic ent to feed 24 cows all winter.
Som .. were given a littlebrsn additional,
but v ry little hay was used. Several
of th cows were avenging 26 lbs. of
milk, aoh per day. To ordinary cows
they fed 60 lbs. per day;•to new milch
°owe 70, with the addition- of a little
bran ad meal occasionally.
Professor Brown, of the Guelph Agri-
cultural College, delivered an address
on ensilage, auhraitting the - results of
experiments' at the Model ' Farm. The
total cost of filling the silo with a ()ame-
nity of 24 tons was $21, or 72 oenta a
ton, besides cutting the corn in the
field. Fone cows were set apart for a
tet of the product -for sixty days. The
ensilage had a sour taste, and there was
no dificulty in starting the cows to eat
it, bat they appeared soon to tire of it.
Two of the cows were put on ensilage
and two on turnips. Fifty pounds of
ensilage were fed daily, The two cows
lost flesh rapidly and gave comparative-
ly little milk, and he had to give them
hat and bran in order to get them to
take the ensilage. For the means of
i
comparison he gav the • same quantity
to the turnip cow a Following is the
result of the expertite ental feeding:

The Digestibility 01 Oystere .
Why oysters should be eaten raw is
explained by Dr. Williana.Robertson in
his lecture on "Digestion, "; He says
that the general practice Of eating the
oysters raw is evidenoe that, the pop-
ular judgment upon maters of diet is
usually trustworthy. Th4 fawn -colored
Man, which is the deliaio s portion of
the fish, is its liver, and is simply a
mass of glycogen. issocOled with the
glycogen, but 'withheld from actual con-
tact with it during life,is is appropriate
digestive ferment—the het:at-lc diastase.
The mere ()rushing of the oysters be-
tween the teeth brings these two bodies
together, and- the glycogen is at onoe
digested without any other help than
the • diastase. The raw, or merely
warmed oyster, is self. digestive. But
the advantage of thie provision is
wholly lost by cooking ; . for the heat
immediately destroys the associated
ferment, and a .cooked oyster has to be
digested, like any other • food, by the
eater's own digestive powers.
"My.Dear sir, do yon wart to rain your
digestion?" asked Profesior Houghton
of Trinity College one day of a friend
who had ordered brandy and water
with his oystere in a Dublin, restaurant.
Then he sent for .s glass of brandy
and a glass of Gniress' XX, and aka
n
an oyster in each. In a very shortfime
there lay in the bottom of the glass of
brendy a tough, leathery substance
resembling the finger 'of a kid glove,
while in the porter them was hardly a
trace of the oyster to be found.

. A Doctor's Opulion-of his '
Patients. .
Among the papers let!, behind him by
a German physician torho died a few
weeka ago is onecontaieing notes of cer-
tein conolusions he bad witted at during
a professional experience of more than
40 years. In oneof these notes he ex-
presses an opinion that at least a third
of the illnesses of the patients who
sought his advice were purely imagin-
ary. Ile foond it not enly against his
own interest, but also against that of
the selftelleged sufferers, to destroy the
illusion by informing them that there
was reply no cause for anxiety. Ill-
healtlfwas to them a matter of almost
vital importance. To destroy the pleas-
ing ebelief that they possessed this
blessing was an absolute cruelty.

a The young 'growth of the poplar tree
yields a dye which may be extracted
as follows: The yonng twigs and
branahes are bruised and boiled for
twenty minutes with a solution of alum
.(ten pounds of wood. requiring!, one
pound of alum), in three gallotes of
water. The solution is ffitered'7 hot
and allowed to cool, and after standing
some time is again filtered from a re-
sinous deposit. On exposure to air and
light it develops a rich gold color, and
may be used directly for dyeing orange
and yellow shades upon all classes of
goods.—Buffalo Lumber World.
