Editor Herald: In your Issue of the 23d ult. was published an able ar ticle entitled "Lot Angeles County— its Resources, etc." While fully coin ciding with the writer us regards said resources, [ wish to call attention to what I believe is destined to become, sooner or later, one of the leading in terests of .Southern California. I refer to dairying) OT the establishment of factories for the Miiiiiila' -cure of Butter nn I tliocse, More particularly cheese. Here we pOMcaa unusual facilities for the estab lishment ol* a series of factories that will not only supply our home con sumption of this article, but it may become one of our leading articles of export. At_this season of the year fanners And no difficulty in disposing of most of the products of the farm, but in the spring and summer it is different, ami it is with the utmost difficulty that they are able to dispose of their little dairy products. Many are compelled to take it out in trade at the various stores. Let us glance at the results. A. and B. are mer chants doing business, say in Los An geles city (for that is the point from which business radiates in thiscounty); C. and D. are farmers, who trade with A. and Jl. because hy so doing they can dispose of their dairy products. The obliging merchants take their butter at the lowest possible market rates, say 18 or'2o cents per pound, and pay for it in goods at the highest pos sible price, thereby satisfying an old maxim, "Make all you can, etc.;" then in turn selling the butter at a price that would make them a hand some profit, without the prolit on the goods which paid for it. Thus the producer loses at least one profit Or if he furnished it direct to the consumer, he would be enabled to hold both, while the merchant now makes a double profit on the goods sold. This "pen picture" is not over drawn. I have known of a great many similar instances during the past 'year. Again, the climate in many" parts of Southern California is too warm for the successful manufac ture of butter, and our little market is overstocked with an inferior article. The difficulties of Forwarding it to Nau Franrl«co, or some more active market than our own, are too great to be easily over come; or if they were not, the extra charges for transportation, added to wharfage, drayage and commission, would leave nothing for the producer. Dairying in this State has long been attended with great pecuniary success. Our large "grants" and the low price of land has enabled many of our dairy men to amass wealth. Rut as our agricultural interests are developed, the price of land increase; and our railroad connections with the East enables competitors there to fill our markets with their products, thus re ducing the prices to scarcely remuner ative figures. Thus our old system of dairying is rapidly passing into decay, and'that, too, before it has reached (to any extent) the southern part of our State; and we must build again upon its ruins a system that is not a theory, but a mooettfvl practice. It now remains for the people of Los Angeles County to take the initiative iv the matter, and develope a resource that may easily assume no diminutive proportions. In order to present this subject more directly before the people, it would perhaps be well to enter into details as to the plan by which this work is to be t'ccomplished. Factory, or Ass dated Dairy By stem First began to attract attention about the year 1864. Although a few facto ries were In operation in the State of New York as early as 1850, the num ber of cheese factories in that State at the commencement of the season of 1860 was 500. In the year 1851 there was erected 1; in 185!), 4; in 1860, 17; in 1866, 120; being the maximum for any one year, for any State. The sys tem has been carried over a considera ble portion of the United States, and the Canadas.. It is largely adopted in Ohio. It has obtained a foothold in Wisconsin, lowa, Illinois, Kansas and other States. It is known abroad as the American System of Dairying, and its peculiarities are so well adapt ed to the genius of the people as to give it a distinctive character of na tionality. The disadvantages of private dairy ing are so numerous, that I will try to state only a few of the most promi nent points. One of the Inconveniences or tbe present system that is widely felt among dairyme n( results from the difficulty of obtaining reliable, intelligent help, for the man agement of the dairy. It is of course desirable to manufacture a first-class ehees\ one that will command the hig' est market price; and in order to to ,o this, all the manipulations must be performed by skilled hands, hands that can seldom be obtained for hire, or if obtained, commanding compara tively high wages. A point of great importance in cheese making, is high skill and perfection in manufacture. I will not attempt to explain why this perfection is not obtained by all. The fact is ouly too patent that first cluss cheese is made by a very few, rather than by the majority of dairy men. Even among those noted for high skill in manufacture, the opera tions are sometimes hurried and neg lected. It must be so necessarily, for it will not pay to keep extra help to take the place of thot-e who are dis abled through sickness, accident, or occasional periods of farm labor re quiring Immediate attention. All have their tendency to hurry manipu lations and to produce an inferior cheese that must be sold at a corres ponding price. Los Angeles Daily Herald. The Advantages of the Factory System Consist of superior quality, unifor mity, higher prices, saving, by buying wholesale such articles as salt, band ages, annatto boxes, etc. Another ad vantage of this system is the relief of dairy farmers from the care and trouble necessary to cure and tit the cheese for market. It would be diffi cult to estimate this In dollars and cents, since health enters DION largely into the account than is generally supposed, since the same process has to be gone through with, whether the quantity of milk be great or small; and since it takes nearly the same time for each family, when divided among families, that It would in the factory, it will be seen that the labor that is divided among many, might be performed by few upon the factory system. Dairy farmers should take ail these facts into account and weigh them carefully before forming an esti mate of the two systems. I am satisfied that there are at least three points in Los Angeles county where the establishment of a Factory Dairying Would be a Nueces*, viz., El Monte, Los Nietos and Comp ton, Factories are usually established in neighborhoods of forty or more families. Generally some person pro poses to put up the buildings on his own account, and to manufacture and take care of the cheese at a llxed price per pound, demanding a contract on the part of the farmers to furnish the milk of a requisite number of cows, for a certain number of years. The milk of about four hundred cows is the smallest quantity that can be used by the manufacturer (when cheese mak ing is his sole business) to obtain a fair living compensation for his ser vices, while the milk of one thousand cows can be manufactured at but little extra expense. At the three points I have men tioned I believe the requisite number of cows to make the system a success could be easily obtained, and farmers could make $400 or SSOO per year more with comparatively little extra ex pense. Where the families are located close together, usually some one of the number delivers the milk to the facto ry; in other cases the price per year may be stated at $1 per cow. In order to gather some insight of the extent of this export trade in the United States,l will state that the exports and sales to foreign countries during the past voar exceeded sixty millions of pounds. Professor X. A. Willard, in his An nual Report to the New York State Agricultural Society, says: "It is be lieved there is a wide range of markets yet unopened for the disposal of Amer ican cheese, needing only a little en terprise on the part of dealers for its introduction; and when once intro duced, it will increase steadily until a heavy foreign demand is readied." Great Britain alone can now take more than our surplus. And since the qualities of adaptation of styles to her needs meets, year by year, greater favor, the time can not be far distant when America will be regarded, if she be not already, as the great cheese pro ducing country of the world. Compton, Nov. 3, 1873. J. J. R. PROSPECTUS OK THE LOS ANGELES HERALD. The first of October, The Uih Anoki.es Her ald, a dally and weekly newspaper, will make its appearance. The Dally will he a neat and tastily printed seven-colnmn news paper, newsy rather than literary in charac ter. The Weekly will be a six-column, eight page paper, and will contain the most impor tant matter that has previously appeared iv The Daily Herald. It Is proposed that the Hekald shall be an unbought advocate of every interest pertain ing to Southern California and Arizona, and a zealous worker In all things that shall tend to benefit the State. In a word It will be In close communion with the People. In Its col umns, from time to time will be found mat ters of Interest to tbe California Farmer, Me chanic, Merchant, Laborer, and all classes of Producers; and It will also contain reading matter suited to the Home Circle. The Herald will be an Independent Demo cratic jonrnal and its efforts directed to sweep ing from power and place those now misman aging the affaire ofthe Nation. Forthe accom pllshmcntof this end, it will hall with satisfac tion the co-operatioa of the members of all Par ties, believing that the prosperity, perhaps safety, ofthe Nation depends upon Ihe success ofa movement of this character. It is " reform now or revolution hereafter." The II KHAf.n will advocate State Rights and oppose Centralization; it will encourage White and oppose Coolie Immlgratlen. It will favor Free Trade, and opposo Protective Tariff; it will advocate a Greenback Currency for Call fornia, and oppose the present dwarfing and deadening policy which upholds the present reinous rutes of interest aud shuts out Eastern capital. It will advocate the People aud op pose Monopolies, no matter what guise they may assume. While the Herald will treat Slavery as a dead issue, it will earnestly advocate the right of every State, be it Northern or South ern—Massachusetts or South Carolina—to gov ern Itself In accordance with the wishes of Its people, and the dictates ofthe Federal Con stitution, without national Interference. The Herald will opppse thieving and pecu lation. No man rightly owns a dollar until he earns It. Every dollar which Is taken from the public treasury or private purse without a Just return Is robbery, nnd he who takes this money Is a thief. Believing this, the Herald will oppose salary steals, custom steals, land steals, railroad steals, and every kind of steals. Each day, the fullest Foreign and Domestic Telegrams will be published. The aim will Iw to supply, In this part of the State, the de mand heretofore filled by the San Francisco dallies. No trouble or expense will be spared to make the Herald, In this respect, equal to any newspaper on the (toast. It will also con tain a full Review of the Local and Foreign Markets, and the Trades generally, honestly and carefully complied. NI'BSCKIPTION: DAILY HERALD.

TESTIMONIALS« University ok California, i Department of Languages. \ Oakland, July 11,1872. j Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Lind ley has been a student In my department of the University for five consecutive terms, vix: from (September, 1870, to April 3d, 1872. During this time she studied the French, the Spanish and the German languages, obtaining always the highest marks for protleloney and attend ance, her average credit mark for five teuns being 97 per cent. On entering the University, Miss Lindley possessed already such knowledge of the French and Spanish Idioms as to be able to speak them with ease, fluency, correctness, and a pure pronunciation. She may now be considered thoroughly fa milial with the theory and philosophy, as well as with the application of these two tongues; a oil she may safely be recommended as a can didate of great promise, for teaching the French and Spanish languages.
