6 FARM AND ORCHARD. Dairy Advantages—The Charm of Agricultural Life. Cnltnro of Barley and "Wheat—Timely Talk on ttao Matter of Corn Plant ing—What Breed of Poultry?—lnter esting Farm Notes. A farmer with a dairy does not have to wait from seed-time to harvest, as a grain raiser does, before lie can realize any cash from his labor. A dairy rightly managed Is a source of profft all the year arouiid. The income is a steady one because the production is steady and evenly distrib uted over the whole season. I remember one fall when potatoes brought 75 cents per bushel, and the next summer I threw ray whole energy into potato production. The result was tiiat I sold my whole crop of tubers for 12J cents per bnshel, less than they cost me for raising. In all my later experience in dairying, I have never seen its products go to such extremes in prices. Yes, sir; if you want an oven in come, you can depend on a rightly man aged dairy every time. There is really less labor to be per formed on a semi-dairy farm than if grain production alone were the rule. The charm of agricultural lifo lies in di versified farming, and the diversification must, or should, include dairying. Dairying in a measure returns to the soil some of the fertility it has extracted, while exclusive grain raising impover ishes without giving a recompense. Dairying gives you a chance to manu facture your own product before you market it, which you cannot do with wheat, corn, etc. By becoming your own manufacturer you save to yourself the manufacturer's pronto, which is a round in the ladder toward bettering your finan cial condition. Dairying is a reliable business, and one which gives a large proportion of train for the capital Invested. Even the poorest dairy cows yield far more than their beef worth in milk every season, while those that are of better blood and are more wisely fed yield double and treble that amount. A family-supply dairy of but one cow possesses tenfold advantages over the milkman's cup. It is said that in France when one is vaccinated against smallpox, the heifer from whose body tho vaccine is to be extracted is led into the presence of the patient and the virus transplanted from the body of tlie animal to the arm of the latter. I suppose that this is to assure the patient of the genuineness and health fulness of the virus used, as gross fraud is perpetrated in such matters as well as in others. In the matter of using the milk and butter produced from your own cow, stabled on your own premises, and graz ing in your own pasture lot, you have tho assurance of healthfulness, cleanliness, and general good quality. The writer does not laud the advantages of dairying simply to hear himself talk, but from an honest conviction that milch husbandry is one of the most valuable requisites of farming. We have no desire to present its claims in a falso light, but rather to spread its legitimate points before the eyes of all men. Don't ever be driven into dairying against your better convic tions, bin If you conclude to embark in the business at all, give its management mental energy, and we know you will suci eed.— George K. Newell in Prairie Warmer. CULTURE OF BARLEY. The best soil to grow wheat is also the best tor barley. This is a rich clay loam, both plants requiring compactness and fineness of mold. Light soil, whether of a peaty or sandy character, will not do; neither will sod, nor any ground charged highly with vegetable material. On the homestead, barley was largely grown and tried on all kinds of soil. Sometimes it would succeed on sod, producing avery heavy growth, but usually the berry was lighter and .the straw weaker and more disposed to lodge than on the same soil if stubble or fallow, especially in a moist season. Besides, my experience is that it matures unevenly on sod —ripe grain and grain in the milk occurring at the Bamc time. Like wheat, barley is a hardy plant, doing best in a cool climate. It is there fore adapted to early sowing, and this it requires so as to mature before the heat of advanced summer sets in, which, in connection with drouth, is always a seri ous hurt to this grain. I have known in severe cases a total loss of the crop. All this is avoided by sowing early in tho spring. It can hardly be put out too early in this latitude, if the ground is mellow and dry enough. This will lit it to be cut by about the beginning ot' July —the straw bright and strong and the berry plump. Barley, although a hardy plant like Wheat, is also exacting, requiring not only a fine, compact mold, clean and well enriched, but thorough drainage. A hoed crop, if kept clean, is a good preparation, in general needing only cultivating and harrowing in the spring (no plowing) be fore sowing. Sow a bushel and a peck broadcast per acre and cover with a smoothing harrow—or a bushel if drilled in, if the ground is rich, as it should be. Few if any grains require such careful treatment of the soil as barley, but the benefit in the crop will be proportionate and the land will be left in good condi tion for a succeeding crop, which with us has usually been oats. It is also in ex cellent condition to seed down when the barley is sown, this being a favorable crop for that purpose. As to harvesting, there are various ways. The point to have in view is to secure as bright and plump a berry as possible, avoiding, therefore, overripe ness and immaturity, and cutting when the berry is ripe and somewhat hard. As soon as wilted and dry outside, put in small cocks, covering with the hay-cap and keep so till cured, when both straw and berry will show a clean, light-yellow ooior.— Country Gentleman. corx planting. Spring operations crowd much work into a short period. One of the busiest times with the fanner is the planting of the corn crop, which is necessarily de layed until danger of frost is over, but to aave time the plowing and preparation cannot be done too early. As soon as the frost leaves the ground there will be quite a number of crops to go in all at onee—corn, potatoes, field beets and veg etables of dinereut kinds, as well as the care of the fruits. The preparation of the land for corn and potatoes early in the season will permit of better work being done, as there is too much hurry if tho | preparation is delayed. Tho seed should I bf selected early, and also the variety, i One mistake made by farmers who are I just beginning is that of procuring sonic well-advertised prolitic variety without first testing it on tho farm. Although corn seems to thrive well in nearly all ! portions of tins country, yet it is doubt ful if there is any variety known that will prove valuable in all sections. The selection of seed outside of the region in which the crop is to be grown is one of the uncertainties. Always use a variety that has been tried in your section. If some new variety is desired test it in a small way. ■When I Used ul Miffi")^ of Hghies—40 Years the Standard* your crop matures select your seed from the growing corn in your Held. Climate, soil, length of season, and mode of culti vation affect all varieties. As statod, plow early, and plow as deep as you wish; but cultivate the crop shallow. Opinions differ widely as to the best method of cultivating corn, and some thing depends on the land upon which it is grown; but all admit that the crop should be given clean cultivation, and the top soil kept loose. There are those who advocate what they call root trim ming, which means that "the young corn should lie plowed between the rows so as to cut the roots, but this is not indorsed by others, whoolaim that the crop thrives best if only suflicient cultivation be given to keep the top soil loose, so as to form a soil, mulch, and thus protect against drought. All kinds of manure will serve for corn, as the plant is a gross feeder. Push it forward rapidly, as the more growth before dry weather tho better. The main point to be impressed here is to begin preparations early, before tho busy season arrives.— Philadelphia licc ord. WHAT BRKKD OF POULTRY? It is said that a Yankee always answers one question by asking another one. We would have to answer the above question by asking several. In what section of the country do you live? What have you market for? Have you unlimited range, or are the fowls to be kept in close yards? These are only some of the queries, and may not be the most important to the one who might ask the question. There is much difference in the hardi ness of fowls. Some are more closely feathered, some have peculiarities in the comb, wattles, feet, etc., that make much difference in this respect. Some chickens are hardy, but tho chicks are almost bare while growing to broiling size, and extra care is needed. Then tho large size of these same chicks may overbalance the lack, and you might consider them more profitable than the hardy little fellow that is almost feathered from the shell. It may be a great distance from market will make the marketing of fresh eggs ;an Inconvenience. !So you want to raise chicks to sell instead of eg<;s. Or, if there is a near market eggs may be most profitable. In tho one case," if other features arc favorable, you need the large breeds, and in the other, the egg ma chines, which are the smaller ones. We might as well ask, and expect to get an answer that would be applicable to all our country, what variety of apples shall I plant? We were much interested in friend Snyder's article on Plymouth Rocks. They are as yet rather new, but there is no question but that they are at the front in the West, as wo have" chance to observe, and we could say amen to al most everything he writes of them. But in some situations we should prefer the Light Tirahmas. W<> have not thoroughly tested the Black Langshans, but their friends are just as enthusiastic as brother Snyder. Situated as we are now, we pre ler the Brown Leghorns, as they are suf ficiently hardy for this section," and eggs pay us best, as we get them when eggs are high priced. A neighbor with very clean surroundings prefers the While Leghorns, on account of their great beauty. Not breeding any stock to sell, we can write, perhaps, with less of bias than if we were specially interested in one or more breeds. Let each study his sur roundings and the characteristics of the different breeds, and then decide as to those best adapted to his needs.—./. M. Itice, in Prairie Farmer. FARM NOTES. Insects do not like wood ashes. Use the ashes fur the trees ami vines. If you have no ashes buy some. Ashes contain both lime and potash. An excellent coating for peach trees, to prevent borers, is to swab the trees well with a mixture of iime and wood tar. I>ig away tho earth, swab the trees six inches below the ground and twelve inches above it, and return the earth to the trees. In planting new strawberries do not overlook the fact that there should be a staminate and pistilate variety together, unless tho variety used is both staminate ami pistilate. Beginners may make mis takes in such matters, and it' is well to call their attention to it. ("hop the manure well into the soil of the garden. Use only the line aud well rotted material. Coarse manure,contain ing cornstalks, straw, or other litter not decomposed, will only be in the way of the young and tender plants. The finer the manure the better. Costiveness in sheep is very apt to occur in winter when no roots or"ensilage is fed. In such case the value of oil meal can scarcely be overestimated. If the tlockmaster has no green food we believe it will pay him to buy some oil meal at any cost that anybody will likely have to Let the top dressing of the asparagus lied be of well decomposed manure, or if you covered last fall with manure that was a litttle "long," rake off this spring, and let the fine remain. Three hundred pounds of nitrate of soda to the acre just before "grass" comes through will bo a Early cabbage's require a very rich soil, while late ones will do well wherever a good crop of corn can ba raised. We plow our ground early for late crop, summer fallowing as for wheat. Karly crop is set about the 10th of April, the second crop about the Ist of May, and tho third crop the :20th of June. The more wrinkled the peas the better the quality of variety. The early peas are usually smooth. The dwarf varieties can bo grown with the least labor, as they need no supports; but later on the taller kinds should be planted, they are not only of better quality, but afford a greater number pickings. It is not necessary to blanket a horse in the stable unless the animal is wet, or should not be cooled suddenly. A sheet may be used to keep the skin clear of dust. When standing on the road, or in any exposed position, especially during windy weather, the horse should always be covered with a blanket. A hand-seeder will distribute the seeds in a row much better than can be done with the lingers. Some seed drills open the rt>ws, plant and cover the seeds, and mark off the next rows. If the proper implements were used for the garden there would be less complaint of the labor required in growing vegetables for fatally Tho first thing to do in invigorating a worn-out orchard is to enrich the ground by top-dressing the whole surface with barn manure; if practicable, at the rate of thirty or forty two-horse loads to tho acre, or with less if this amount can not be had. Let this manure be finely broken up so as to be evenly spread and not left in lumps. Rotation of crops is always beneficial. Land that is given a different crop every year will not become exhausted as sooh as when given up, year alter year, to a single crop. A crop will take from the laud certain food in excess of others, and cause it to fail, though it may not be lack ing in other 'elements. By rotation of crops the supply of plant food removed is equalized, and the soil is better enabled to produce cropa for a longer period of time. All kinds of food may be relished by stock, but the food that gives the best results is that which is most easily di gested and assimilated. Tae individual characteristics of an animal should be considered in feeding. Some animals will digest certain foods which would not be beneficial to their associate?. There is no herd or flock that contains two ani mals alike in every respect. The farmer who studies the habits of each animal will have a great advantage in feeding for the best possible results. SACBAMEKTO DAILY BECtTRD-tTNTOS', -WrffiftSTESDA-r, MATftCg 25, IS9I.—SIX 1-AGES. VOICE OF THE PEOPLE On the Lynching of Murderers at New Orleans. An American Citizen Expresses His Views on the Subject In Clear and Unmistakable Lanpruagre — Let Our Judges Have More Backbone. An American citizen, -writing to the San Diego filun, says: What are the plain facts? The Mafia, an organized band of thugs and mur derers in the city of New Orleans, had for years terrorized that city and mur dered its citizens, defied the law and ter rorized juries, and at last these thugs assassinated tho Chief of Police in the street—shot hi in to death because he was attempting to do his duty as an officer and arrest criminals. The murderers were arrested and tried. The evidence was conclusive. Not a man in the United States hut believes in his breast that ihe men tried were guilty. Hut through fear of their lives or for money the jury failed to convict. The sovereign people there executed tho law. When the agent proved dishonest and faithless the princi pal acted. These are the plain facts. Eleven of an organized band of red i handed murderers were killed. Bight of tho eleven were American citizens—at least, had taken the oath to support the Constitution and laws of the United States and the State wherein they were made citizens. The other three are re ported to be citizens of Italy. And thus we have the representatives of thai Go v ernment demanding retribution and in demnity from the United States for this killing. And we have thousands of men who have taken the oatli of allegiance to this Government, and many editors of Italian papers, frantically calling on a j foreign Government to come and avenge i their countrymen — a curious proceeding for American citizens. Mr. IJlaine is taking a hand in the matter, and it is attempted to make an international mat ter of it. The Italians refer to the treaty between the two Governments, wherein it Is pro vided that the citizens of Italy shall have the same rights and privileges and be subjected to the same penalties and re straints as American citizens. Now has this provision of the treaty been violated or strained in tho least? Not at all. Were not the citizens of Italy, who were mur derers, served exactly the same as the citizens of the United States who were murderers? Eight American citizens murderers—were killed, three citizens of Italy—murderers—were killed. Now, had the people of New Orleans selected the three Italian citizens from tho eleven and killed them and saved the eight American citizens, or had made any distinction between them, then the Ital ian Government would have bad a case. As it is, it is none of Italy's business, none of Mr. Maine's business, but is a matter that concerns the city of New Orleans and the State of Louisiana alone. Now these oleven men were killed, not because they were citizens of this or any other country, but because they were murderers. We have made no* treaty with any foreign nation as to how these States will administer the laws, only that wo will treat all alike. That's what was done in this case. The Mafia murderers and bandits were hunted in Italy like wild beasts. Does Italy demand that the United States shall give them license to rob and murder in the United States? That is exactly what this call for vengeance means, if it means anything. The simple fact is that Ameri can citizenship has been made too cheap. The United States has become the dimm ing ground for the paupers and thugs of Europe as well as some of its honest poor. Our courts are every day making citi zens (?) of persons who do not possess a single qualification lor citizenship. And right here let me mention the instance of one of our own Superior Judges—Aitken —who denied the application of a person for citizenship because it was made plain to him that the applicant could not and would not make a good American citizen. Everyone in the court-room felt that the Judge was exactly right. And if our Judges would reject about vine out often applicants they would be doing about right. The sooner the people of these United States meet this question—as they must sooner or later —of organized bands of criminals, like the Mafia of New Orleans, the Clan-na-Gael of < 'hieago, the Molly Maguires of Pennsylvania and tho Highbinders of California, the better. DP Mr. Blame wants to represent the American people he can say to all foreign Governments: "The United States pro poses in the future, as in the past, to keep inviolate all treaty stipulations. But the people of the several States will continue to make and administer their State laws as they see lit without foreign interfer ence ; that in cases of crime they will not inquire as to citizehship. If they send their citizens here and they commit mur der they will Be hung just as surely as they would be were they American citi zens. If any of you don't like the terms you had better keep your citizens at home, and if you think you can change these conditions by sending over an iron clad, you may try that." George Dixon, 22 Florida street, Eliza beth, N. J., writes: "I have been using Allcock's Porous Plasters for the last five years. Sonic two years ago, after having been sick for upwards of six months with malaria, I found myself with an enlarged spleen, dyspeptic, and constantly troubled with a headache, and my kidneys did not act very well either. Haviy.g spent most of my money for medicine and medical ad vice, I thought to save expense I would use Allcock's Porous Plasters, two on the small of my back, one on the spleen or ague cake, and one on the pit of the stomach, just under the breast bone.

The Affairs of the Bunk Carried on In a Loosn Manner. New York, March 24. — Technically speaking, the doors of the Washington National Bank, whose failure was spread broadcast yesterday afternoon, wore not closed, as it was announced they would be to-day. Conspicuously posted on the doors was the following notice : "At the request of the directors, I have taken possession of the bank in the name of the Comptroller of the Currency, Ed ward Lacy, under whoso direction its af fairs will lie liquidated. "A. 15. Hkprurn, "National Bank Examiner." The clerks were all at their accustomed desks in the bank, but no money was re ceived or paid out. It was said at 10 o'clock that there was nothing new to bo made public at that hour. TJlgnam Sidcll, one of the directors, to day said that the capital stock of the bank was 9900,000 and it had been impaired to the extent of f 130,000 by loans made by President Sherman, sidell said ho felt certain tho depositors would be paid in full and that the only persons who would be losers were the stockholders. Notice was posted this afternoon that all checks drawn on the Washington National Bank by the Commercial National Hank of Fremont, Neb., would bo paid by the Firs! National Hank of this city. United States Examiner Hepburn gave out a lengthy statement this afternoon. In which he s:iid that as far as his examina tion extended there will be an apparent loss to the bank from various sources of H43.000. This would still leave the stock holders entitled to 8 dividend Of 50 per cent. He thinks the depositors will be paid in full. Among the instances of bad business done, ha says the bank received out-of-town collections and sent them for ward marked "no protest," instructing the corresponding bank to hold them subject to order. At the same time they certified checks that had boon deposited against these collections and allowed such items to stand. '"No one thing ails the bank," added Hepburn, "but everything—inadequate security for loans, loans to parties of no torious inipecnniosity, and utter disre gard for established banking principles characterized the management through out." The Comptroller of the Currency will probably appoint a receiver. «. WORLD'S FAIR. Correspondence Kelatine to the Meet ing to be Held in April.

The President replied in the most encouraging manner. The Presi dent stated that Honduras accepted the invitation of the President of the United States to participate in the exposition, and that the Republic would be repre sented at Chicago by a full exhibit of it's resources and products. President Bo gran has appointed Dr. Fitcgartner, Gov ernment Geologist and Inspector of Gen eral Mines, and a scientist of high repu tation, as Special Commissioner for Hon duras to the Columbian Exposition and gave him instructions to report at ones a plan for the building and exhibits for Honduras, with an estimate of the amount of money necessary. .«.

The rumors variously pointed to a combination of New York and Chicago men and ton clique of Chicagoans exclusively.

I.SOOTHERIAMACTBHBG CO., BBjTOljrajgg SAN FRANCISCO. It is the duty of every man of family to provide them with a home. To enable him to do so, we will hold the second --GRAND AUCTION SALE OF* City Lots in South Sacramento, Lying East of Sacramento Avenue, at that Large Store, N©. 519 J STREET, ON THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 2, jPU: 7:30 O'Clock. We hold the sale in the evening to enable those who are employed through the day to attend. The former Auction Sale was a success. ONLY A FEW LOTS LEFT IX THIS SUBDIVISION (71 lots having been sold at previous sale). We have determined upon closing them out, and this will be THE LAST OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN A CHEAP AND DESIRABLE BUILDING LOT, where streets are all graded and high taxes avoided, with clear and pure water in abundance, at a much less cost than in the city. The Electric Railway being an assured success, fifteen minutes more time is only consumed in going from a point in the city to South Sacramento, where Lots will be sold for 600 per cent. less. Lots Will be Sold Without Reserve to tk Highest Bidder^ Consequently a Bargain Will be Secured. TERMS-One-fourtti cash, deferred pay ment in monthly installments of Sio, interest at 7 per cent, per annum, purchaser paying taxes. EDWIN K.
