AGSICaiTUSAL ORGANIZATIONS.
We believe there is now no State in the
Union that has not, by act of the Legislature, !
in some way recognized the importance of or
ganization of its agricultural industries.
Some have simply provided for a State soci
ety, and have izade no provision for district
or county societies--, while others have system
atized the matter fully in such a manner that
all the rural districts come under one general
recognition. The State of Illinois is probably
as well cared for in this respect as any other
State in the Union. In that State the Legis
lature pa3sed an Act creating a State Agricul- j
tural Department, which is managed by a '
State Board of Agriculture. The State
Boaid is made up of a President and
as many Vice-Pre«idents*as there are or may
be county agricultural societies in the State.
.The President and Vice-Presidents are elected
every two years by a general agricultural
convention, in which each county society may
have three members and vote?, and no more.
Each county agricultural society is entitled
to a representative on the State Board, and
he may be the President or any other mem- j
ber of the county Board, or he may be any
other member of the county society. The
Legislature makes] an annual appropriation
of money to the State Board of Agriculture,
and said State Board is required by law to j
appropriate not less than $100 a year to each j
county Board organized and in good legal
standing in the State. The State Board and
each county Board is required t» hold an
annual fair of the agricultural, horti
cultural and mechanical products of the
State or county,- and when they fail to
comply with thin provision of law the
appropriation is to be withheld. The bills
now before our own Legislature for the State
Societyj and the district societies are, in
their general characteristics and purposes,
similar to the Illinois law, under which the
State and county Boards of that State are j
organized. Our State and district Boards i
are made, under cur bills, appointive instead |
of elective, on account of that provision in
our Constitution prohibiting our Legislature
from- making appropriations to any. society
except it be exclusively under State control
and management. Then it is proposed to I
make the appropriations, under our system,
direct to the district societies, instead, as in
Illinois, to the State Society for the county
societies. In all other respects in the sys
tematic working together of the State and
district societies — the two plans are alike.
It is proposed to unite several counties here
together to make up a district society, be
cause our«ounties are not, as a general thing,
sufficiautly.populous to maintain a stroncr and
efficient society, but in making up our dis
tricts, counties lying contiguous are placed in
the came district, and it so happens also I
that those whose industries and products are j
similar, come within the same district, and
will therefore work naturally together in de- I
veloping the industries within their limits.
The bill organizing the State into districts
makes 11 districts, and authorizes 50 or more j
residents of such district to form a district
society, and provides for the appointment by
the Governor of eight resident citizens as a
District Board of Agriculture for the dis
trict, who shall have full management and |
control of the society for the State. The i
members of the Boards hold office four years,
two going out each year. The President is
to be elected by the Board, and to be of their j
number, and to hold office as President only
one year. The bill organizes the districts as
follows :
The counties of Alameda, Contra Costa !
and San Francisco, Agricultural District
No. 1.
The counties of San Joaquin, Calavera?,
Fresno, Kern, Merced, Mariposa, Stanislaus,
Tulare and Tuulumue constitute District
No. 2..
The connties of Sutter, Yulia, Butte, Co
lusa, Tehains, Yolo and Sacramento consti
tute District No. 3.
The counties of Sonoma, Marin, Solano,
Napaand Lake constitute District No. 4.
The counties of Santa Clara, Santa Cruz
and San Mateo constitute District No. 5.
The enmities of Los Angeles, San Diego, !
San Bernardino, Santa Barbara, Ventura and I
Inyo constitute District No. (i.
The counties of Monterey, San Luis Obispo j
and San Beuito constitute District No! 7.
The counties of Nevada, Placer, El Dorado,
Amador, Alpine and Mono constitute District
No. 8.
The counties of Mendocino, Hnrabcldt and !
Del Norte constitute District No. 9.
The counties of Si-kivoii, Trinity and Shas
ta constitute District No. 10.
The counties of Piurnas, Lassen, Modoc
and Sierra constitute District No. 11.
Section 17 of the bill provides as follows :
Each association so. formed and organized
is hereby declared and shall be recognized a
State institution ; end the Board so appointed
and qualified .shall have the exclusive control |
and management of such institution for and |
in the name of the State, and shall have the I
possession and care of ail the property of the
association, and shall fix the terms of office,
and the bonus of the Secretary and Treasurer, |
and determine their salaries and duties. They
shall have power to make all necessary by
laws, rule* and regulations for the govern
ment of the association, and the management
of its prudential and financial affairs. They
shall provide for an annual fair or exhibition
' by the association of all the industries and
industrial products in the district, at such
time and place as they deem advisable ; pro
vided, that no district fair shall be held in any
ot the districts at the same time of the State
Fair ; and provided further, that the State
■hall in no event be liable for any premium
offered, or award, or f..r any debt contracted
by any D.strict Board of Agriculture or Agri
cultural Association.
When the question of putting the State*
Society under State control, in order to en- '
able it to receive State aid under the Consti
tution, was first discussed by the State Board,
we are informed that there was a strong feel
ing agaitst it, but after looking at the matter
in every light, the members of the Board
have changed their position in relation to the
matter, and now regard this as the best thing
for the society and the industries it is in
tended to foster. We are satisfied that the
members of the local societies will come to
the same conclusion with respect to their to- :
cieties when they have thought of the matter. [
By the organization of district societies with
in each of the districts proposed it will place
the societies so organized in the same favor
able position in regard to State aid. that the
State Society will be in. They can then
all be put into the general appropriation and
may each receive a proper share of all the
money given by the State for the aid of i the
general industrial;. As the districts cover ail
the counties of ■ the State, every locality will
. share in the benefits to be derived from the
emulation excited. Each district society
will naturally turn its attention especially to
the effort to forward the interests of the peo
ple in its boundaries, and in this way much
good may be effected for every locality and
will the better prepare the people of the dis
trict to make a creditable ; showing at
': the State : fair a!s\ and to give a good
account of the district in the annual tran
sactions :of " , the State Society.' •i" By
such' organization, too, in the district?,
the State Society will be placed in direct
communication with every locality '*. la the
j State, and the benefits to be pained will be
mutual, and can be utilized for the general
good. By a careful examination, of this Con
stitution we are satisfied j that it Was the in
tention of the Convention that framed it
! that some such course as it marked by the
propose legislation should be adopted —
the Convention' was not inimical to aidirp;
the industries by appropriations, but on the
contrary was in favor of this course, for they
expressly declared that tne legislature should
in all suitable ways promote agricultural edu
cation. It U in our opinion desirable that
the legislation on tl.is subject should be had
a3 soon as consistent with the importance of
the subject; in order that the organization
may be completed in time to make the neces
sary provisions for the district fairs this
! season.
CHANGING SEED WHEAT.
Thoughtful and practical farmers are be- I
coming more and more convinced each year ■
that seed wheat should be frequently changed;
that one of the principal causes of the de
crease in yield and decline in quality of the
California crop is the constant use of the
■ same seed on the same soil in the same cli
mate. It has been proven in numerous in
stance.-, that new importations of s, til of any
given variety of wheat have been followed by
an increased yield and an improvement in
I the quality of the wheat produced. It has |
I also been proven in like manner
that a change of varieties of wheat,
provided only that good varieties
were a ihered to, is beneficial. We are glad
to learn that so many of our wheat-growers
are actintr upon the lessons of experience in :
I these particulars, and that they are deter
j mined to profit by the knowledge gained in
so dear a school as experience. In this con
nection we would call attention to the fol
i lowing hem which we cut from the Chico
Enterprise, in regard to the doiugs of one of
our u>r u citizens in the seed-wheat line. It
says:
We are informed that G. F. Nourse & Co.
have purchased in Aiizona, for J. H. Carroll,
of Sacramento, nix thousand pounds of
"Pima Indian Wheat," raised by the tribe
bearing this name. Mr. Carroll ha.-* planted
sixty acres of the Pin Hook farm with this
1 wheat, and intends to raise it for the express
purpose of sailing the entire yield to those
farmers who may desire to change their seed
in the next season. Great care has been
taken to prepare the ground and the seed is |
not only pure and beautiful to look at, but as |
it mi thrashed by being trodden out by the i
I naked feet of the Indians, each kernel is per
fect and uninjured. The only known name
! for this variety is "Piina ludiau Wheat,"
! and it is particularly recommended to
those who desire a large yield of an
early variety, and with straw that will stand j
up. " Mr. Carroll has also sowed 123 acred of
the same farm with the famous "blue stem
Australian wheat," the seed of which was
imported direct through the bouse of Bal
| four, Uuthrie & Co., San Francisco. The
| lands for this weie carefuily prepared, and
:no pai will be pared to keep them clean, so
that next fall he can offer pure and reliable
seed wheat to our fanners. S imething of
this kind has been much needed, ami we j
(•hail take pleasure in noting the growth and
maturity of these new imports.
AGRICULTURAL INTELLIGENCE.
A Farmer's DiscoviSKT.— James Smith, a
prominent farmer living on the Copperopolis
road, informs the Stockton Mail that about
ten years ago his vines and trees were badly
treated by phylloxera, which killed many
and seriously injured more. Nut knowing
what remedy to apply, he let the little pest
have its course. At the same time, however,
be planted an Australian blue gum tree, and
since then he has not teen any of the phyll
oxera in hi.-) garden. He does nut know
whether there is anything in the gum tree
which 13 a positive preventive, but he very
naturally thinks there is some connection be
tween its being planted and the disappearance
of the phylloxera.
To Make Hens Lay. — To make hens lay,
put two or more quarts of water in a kettle
and one large seed pepper, or two small
ones. Then nut the kettle over the fire.
When the water boils stir in coarse Indian
steal until you have a thick mv.li. Let it
cook an hour or so. Feed hot. Horseradish
chopped fine and stirred into mush as pre
pared in the above directions, and for results |
we are getting rive to ten eggs per day, whereas
previous to feeding we had not had an eg:;
for a long time. We hear a good deal of
complaint from other people ab,.ut not get
ting eggs. To such we would warmly recom
mend cooked feed fed hot. Boiled apple
skins seasoned with red pepper, or boiled po
tatoes seasoned with horseradish, are good
feed much tetter than uncooked food. Corn,
when fed to the hen by itself, has a tendency
to ten rather than produce the more profit
able laying. A spoonful of sulphur
stirred with their teed occasionally will rid
them of vermin and tone up their system. —

Another Method' or Smoking.— The
Star lately, in auswer to an inquiry,
gave all the information then at its command
in relation to the method of smoking for frost.
We have since learned of another plan which,
though using the same principal agent (coal
tar), is yet so different in its application that
it is worthy of special explanation. By this
method the tar is used without the
aid of the brush or rubbish, and ap
pears to be much simpler and easier of
application and control. The only place we
know of its being used is on the Calder
wood vineyard, near Pine Station, now
owned by John Greer. Andy Calder
wood, who managed the matter last year,
tells us that he got in San Francisco
eight dozen small iron vessel*, hold
ing, he think-", about a gallon each. These,
with a barrel of tar, only cost $24. These
eight dozen they used ia a 20 acre vineyard
and proved au ample protection to it. They
put coal-tar in the yes.-els, pour on that a
little coal-oil as a kind of kindliuK, and then,
when necessary, set tire to it. It burns readily
and produces a dense, heavy smoke, similar
to that of coal-burning factories. These, it
will be seen, are easily moved around in ca3e
of the wind changing, very little trouble to
prepare, and the cost of the whole outfit m
not one per cent, of the crop, which brought
last year about $2,700. The vessels, of course,
and a good share of the tar, are left for an
other year's service.— Helena Star.
INTELLECT IN BRUTES.
One evening shortly after my arrival in ]
Eastern Assam, while the five elephants
were, as usual, bein;.' fed opposite the bun
galow, I observed a youug ami lately caught
one step up to a bamboo stake fence and
quietly pull one of the stakes up. Placing j
it under foot, it broke a piece off with its
trunk, and after lilting it to its mouth,
t'.irew it away. It repeated this twice or
thrice and then drew another stake and
began again. Seeing that the bamboo was
old and dry, I asked the reason of this,
and was told to wait and see what it would
do. At last it seemed to get a piece that
suited, and holding it in tlie trunk firmly,
and stepping the left fore leg well forward,
passed the piece of bamboo under the arm- j
pit, so to speak, and began to scratch with
force. My surprise reached iv climax w hen
I saw a large elephant-leech fail to the
ground, quite six inches long and as thick
as one"s ringer, and which from its position
| could not easily be detached without
this scraper, or scratch, which wasde'iber
ately made by the elephant. I subse
quently found that it was a common oc
currence. Leech-scrapers are used by
every elephant daily. Oc another occa
sion, when traveling at a time of yoar
; win n the large flies are so tormenting to
I an elephant, I noticed the one I rode had
|no fan or wisp to beat them off with. Tne
mahout, at my order, slackened pace, and
allowed her to go to the side of the road,
where for some moments she moved along,
rummaging the smaller jun^lts on tiie
bauk. At last she came to a cluster of
young shoots well branched, and after
feeling among them, and selecting one,
raised his trunk and neatly stripped down
the stem, taking off all the lower branches
and leavin/ a hne bunch on top. She de
liberate ly cleaned it down several times,
and then laying hold at the lower end
broke offa beautiful fan or switch about
five feet long, handle included. With this
she kept the flies at bay as we went along,
flapping them off on each side • every now
anrl then. Say what we may, these are
really bona fide implements, each intelli
gently made for different purposes.

Sauerkraut.
Host people turn up their noses at this
! thing because they do not know how really
I good it is. " It's a kind of acquired taste
i which I haven't got," a person says, cx
i cusing himself. Why, sauerkraut is a
pataion with some' people as really know
j what good eating is. It is one of hosts
things which, if you once put your mind
to it, comes after that mighty natural. I
don't recommend that if a party sends
you a mess of kraut you send it next door
to the neighbors to cook, and then invite
yourselves in to eat it ; only, if you do
cook it at home, and there' are lady visit-
I ors, keep your kitchen and parlor doors
shut, or if there is an odor, you' say
ttiat "it's that awful Dutch family
next door that always does it."
The cooking of sour, or sailor, kraut don't
present any difficulties. It is good cooked
I alone. The only thing is that it should be
cooked thoroughly, and put. in a tin-lined
pot. Iron makes* it black and kills the
! right taste. Five hoars of slow simmering
■fetches it. Add a little butter and pepper,
and, if you have it, some cream. If you
j cook with meat, a piece of fat brisket is
I the thing, with an end-bone of ham and a
I smoked sausage. It the saver-kraut is salt,
be sure and don't add any more salt.
I The best il ivoriog is with two or three
! small African peppers. " It ought to cook
[ steady, and be rather dry when served,
It's all the better for being warmed over.
| Just you take a partridge and cook it with
! some saver-kraut, and you are bound, if it's
i properly managed, to thank -the advice of
i —Bob the Sea Cook.
Odd Note?.
The "old woman's" remedy for a "c»ld
! in the chest," a sore throat, or a bruise,
which consisted in an application of brown •
paper Steeped in beer or vinegar, owed its
j eluoacy t" the heat-retaining properties of
I the paper. 4 A wet pad of this material, so
far as the surface next the fckiu wa3 con
-1 cerned, acted almost as well m a layer of
wet lineu rag protected with a thick cover
! ing of flannel. . In short, stout paper of the
! commonest sort is an effective non-con
! ductor, aud may be most advantageously
j employed as covering for beds, or to eke
out scanty clothing. If this were generally
known 'among the poor, strong sheets of
thick paper would be stitched to the back
of ragged quilts, with the result of render
ing many a poor family comfortable be
cause better protected from the bitter
weather these winter nights. A piece of
thick paper inserted between the lining
and the cloth of a waistcoat, or in the
back of a thin coat, will render it warm as
well as light. The suggestion is a small
I one, but it is simple to carry into effect.
In Paris the pretty ribbon dance has
been introduced for the amusement of
children at parties. ' Kight long .ribbons of
different colors are attached to a ring in
the ceiling. Bear boys and four girls each
dressed to match his own ribbon, hold the
ends of these. By the movements of the
dance the ribbons are woven together in a
dextrous manner. Then, by another series
of pretty motions, they are separated
again, and the players brought back to
position. The graceful measures are pleas
ing to the children aud the effect of the
! bright colors very picturesque.
Miss Corsoa Bays : " Both poultry and
game are 1e33 nutritious than meat, but
they are more digestible, and consequently
are better food than meat for people of
weak digestive organs and sedentary hab
its. They are both excellent for persons
who think or write much."
An original valance for a mantel is of

the ancient dramatic traditions, cuing not
for innovations. Siie was asked lately by
Baroness Burdett-Coutts if she ha 1 seen
Mr. Irving in the part of Shylock. "Yes,"
she said, "I have." "And what do you
think of the performance?" insisted the
Biron^s'. ' t 'ln my opinion," answered
Mrs. Kemble, "if Shakcspearo could see
it he would re- write the part."
Richard Warner has accepted the invita
tion of Mine. Judith'Mendes, the daughter
of Theophile Gautier, to pass a few weeks
at her villa at St. Enogat, in Brittany, on
his return from Naples. His health, which
seemed quite restored, has again become
uncertain, a second attack 01 erysipelas
immediately after his arrival in Naples
giving some cause, not for alarm, but for
uneasiness. :
Don't be constantly explaining to the
friend who may have accompanied you to
the theater, the part and incidents of the
play. Don't keep up a running tire of buz
zing and whispering eitlier in commenting
on the performance or preparing your
friend fur the climax. Even the novitiate
for whom your explanations are intended
neitherunderstands nor appreciate! theplay
halt as well as though they had been per
mitted to ferret out the play lrom incipi
ency to maturity.
Misj Jennie Lee, well known in Califor
nia, the young actress whose forcible per
formance of Jo in a dramatic edition of
"Bleak House" was veiy favorably re
ceived some few seasons back at the Lon
don Globe Theater, appeared recently at
the Royalty in " MWgO,"* 1 which purports
to be a new three-act comedy written ex
pressly for the lady by Me.-srs. Martin &
Burnett. But " Midge" proved a failure,
and Miss Jennie Lee has fallen back upon
Jo, and is again a one-part actress.
Mine. Dolaro has made no better im
pre.-sii.n in Carmen in Bngfirii, in London,
than she made in Carmen, in Italian, in
New York. The acute critic of the World
says : Mine. Dularo, a particularly attract
ive artiste, who improved the opportunity
of displaying her natural charms, lacks
not only the dash of Minnie Hauck, the
voice of Trebelli, or the fascination of
Marie Roze, hut she has nothing, except
her beauty, if that constitutes a claim,
that would entitle her to tike hold </f an
important part like Carmen. A voice like
a little bird, albeit pure and correct; a
tame, quite indifferent conception, che had,
neither as a singer nor ai an actress, any
remarkable or even lively point, except
when she jumped at one bound on the
table.
OUTDOOR AMUSEMENTS.
ITEKS OF INTEREST TO TH3 LjV^SS OF
FIELD SPORI3.
[In this dupirtD'^nt, a* the head indicate?, wo pro
pise to ii.iilit record of current sporting events.
" inkalii iv to the }■■■; ■ concerning. such
''.matters should ; he- addressed to the " Outdoor
Amusement Department "1
■:: Archery.— J. P. Trae, of Boston, says :
"I have read with interest the articles on
the different woods for bows, and beg leave
to offer a mite on the subject. .Years »go
I was in the habit of making bows of red
cedar, which j one gentleman preferred an
inquiry about. I found the material excel
lent, sb far as elasticity was concerned, but
brittle and apt to warp. Pursuing my ex
periments, I glued a strip of leather along
the back tacointeract the latter fault, and,
pouring oil over the wood, lighted it, am 1
scorched it. I found it toughened the wood
considerably, and for years never used any
other bow. I have in my possession .1 Co
manche bow, the description of which may
be interesting: Length, three feet three
inches ;^ width, two and three- fourths
inches ; thickness, three-fourths of an inch ;
made of spruce and backed with a mat of
buffalo sinew, glued so firmly as to defy
both weather an I time. The siring was
also of sinew ; and after I br;>ke it, 1 never
could get another that would stand the
strain. A sheaf of arrows accompanied it,
that were also a curiusity in tK-ir. way.
The shafts were in two j:>art3. (1.) A 30
--inch reed apparently^ with a woody out
side. (2.) A short piece of wood inserted
in the end, of «n equal diameter as the
shaft, to which the stone and head was
fastened with sinew resembling catgut,
while both joints and feathers (hawk) were
fastened with thin band 3of the tame.
The whole was about thirty-three niches
in length ; and I have seen a strong man
draw that three-feet bow to the head and
send an arrow over a fence one hundred anil
sixty- three yards away ! I could not do it
though."
How to Cure a Hobsb. — "Ouida,"in
the Whitehall Review, gives her experience
in curing a horse of a bad leg, as follows :
" Rest Would cure half the accident 3 that
horses receive, but people 'will not give it
them because it costs money. A p<;t horsy
of mine had a very bad strain consequent
on a groom's disobedience ; his leg was al
most as useless as though it were broken ;
he was 6een by many veterinarians and
pronounced incurably injured ; I was ad
vised to s ill him or kdl him. I did neither ;
1 had bis plates taken off, put him into the
largest loi.se box I haye — one 18 feet by 13
feet — with str.uv up to his knees, and then,
giving him no treatment except cold
bandages, kept him doing notiusg for a
year; gently walked aluitit on the • '
paths of my woods when it was line
weather. He recovered entirely alter
twelve months' rest; and now is ready to
jump over the moon, and t!,e only hard
task is to make him not gallop. Now I ;»■:■
aware that what is possible with one
favorite horse ia not possible with many;
but there are thousands of people to whom
a horse's keep for a year would I c no very
c^vat burden, and it is only bis ke 10 that
costs anything when you have other horses
in the stable and men to atteiul on them."
Trapping Qi'ail. — If Senator Hill or
Assemblyman Anthony could get in an
amendment to the game law, by which
quail trapping would be prohibited in this
i^enatori; 1 .! district, they would receive the
thanks of all hunters in the distr.e:. The
trapping of ijUail is carried on so exten
sively 111 this section that bef..re many
yean scarcely a quail will be foun 1 in the
vicinity. A few year! ago the hiils back of
Watsoaville landing were full of ouail ;
now tiicre are but few theie. Tiiey nave
been decreased by trapping. There is a
trapper living near tin m hills who has a
large coop, in which he places the trapped
quail, and when i.c wants to send a lot to
mirLet, he discharges a few Lads i om
his gun into the cooped-up living mass,
takes out the dead ones rind ships them to
market. He has made big wages this w in
ter by his nefarious practices. We call
on our legislators for a section against
trapping. — [ Watson viile Pajaronian.
Is -r.KKi:ii'N<;.— The leading physi
ologists and scientists of today are very
unanimous in opinion that in-breeding in
the human race, even within bounds per
mitted by law, is not conducive to either
physical, mental or moral development,
but decidedly the reverse. In proportion
as we descend in the scale, the ill results
are less pronounced, or manifest, clii<lly
because the various developments of the
animal are leas pronounced, but the evil
still remains, and where inbreeding is
recklessly indulged in, soon becomes
manifest and very serious. We do not
declaim against all in-breeding, but where
it c.in be avoided and still secure the
prominent or desirable features of type
which we desire to reproduce or develop,
it should be done. Thus, iu-breeding, per
bo, is an evil, and has been marked by the
disapproval of all ages, deteriorating dis
eases and steniity being the most prom
inent evil results in tue human race. —

practicing lately shooting gla^s balls with
a rifle, and at a teat match last Sunday,
the balis being thrown up by band, Adams
brake with his rifle 44 out of 50, and Me

remarkably quod. Thit ol Adams would

of over forty years in all the trout waters
of the United States, Territories, and
