DRIFTED gradually into
the occupation of writer,
and nrw wrote a line for
publication until I was
twenty-nine years old. 1
wrote because I couliltit
help writing. I found a
pleasure in putting my
thoughts on piper. It seemed an assist
ance to thinking; more clearly. We may
think more things in sixty seconds than
we can write out in sixty minutes. The
time occupied in putting our thoughts
down on paper teems as a sort of gov
ernor to regulate the outflow of our
mental steam or idea. If yon could do
this without the aid of pen and ink to
keep from thinking too fast you miht
live for hours in an eitetupore poem,
fancy or fiction of your own.
The first article I ever had published
appeared in the columns of The Union
Democrat, of Sonora, Tuolumne oonnty,
Cal. It w an account of the yearly
fall opree held by the river miners when
the Tuolumne, rose in ita wrath two
months earlier than was expected firs
years out of six and swept away all our
summer's work, dams, flumes, wheels,
fl.ricv t-t ic.: r river mining machinery.
I: .v. t lur.i-Ikia account of the
spre;1 r ' : ',- rv.n'.In of it, and the feel
ings. " .1 ...id physical, remorse and
repeui.i a-, contrition and heailache, re
alized tae day after.
The article struck a sympathetic chord
tlirougliont the entire county. Four
fifths of the population had been there
themselves.
I wrote this sketch one Sunday after
noon under a biir pine tree near my
cabin. I- was in a little gulch, and
through l .e gulch flowed a little brook.
A hundred yards distant the muddy cur
rent of the Tuolumne roared and rushed
and howled through the Willow Bar and
over a pn peron claim.
There came flouting in its current a
a log or part of a flume or a sluice box
or wreck of a water wheel, which the
mad river tossed about as if in derision
of man's puny work, and perhaps flung
it ou a half submerged rock and crashed
it to splinters. I know not why, but
the picture of the birthplace of my first
article has remained Uriuly imprinted
in my brain.
For n'muit three years between whiles
of mining, prelecting, teaching school,
running f ir iui-.v, lectin .'i,' and organ
izing gigantic mining enterprises, all of
which i-ri-h - 1 piv.ni.tnr.'ly, I wrote al
most wttitit'iitsly for TU- D.-mocrat over
the siguatiav of "D-g-.-rry." By that
name 1 I 'Mai' preuy well known in
Tuolumne an I t'.ie a!jmiug counties.
I bad no ambition to b-eune known
as a writer. ' My hig'u'st aspiration wa
the pos-H.-.-iuu ,.. a g il l claim which
would pay four or five dollars a day.
As such a.v.:a:ion increased tho daily
income of siicli diggings" as I took hold
of diminish'. . At loot such income de
scended to tiie stale, of .venty-live cents
ler d:i-m. All my worldly goods wre
an old gun. a saddle, a pair of blankets,
an enfeebled suit of clothes and a trunk
with abundant room for many tilings
not in it.
At tlii-crisis in the early fall of 1!?
I received an unexpected letter from Mr.
Joseph Lawrence, publisher of The (ol
den Era, then the leading literary week
ly pap'-r of San Francisco, asking me to
take a place on it. To San Francisco 1
went j-traightway, and a more forlorn,
seedy specimen of literary iiupecmiiosity
never set foot in that city. Mr. Law
rence placed m- at one of tho leading
hotels. Wc-re he lived, and by the agency
of some fresh apparel made me in a
measure -presentable. I felt very much
out of place among the stylinh people
with whom 1 found myself.
However, I filled my position on Tlw
Era, J believe, acceptably. It was only
at certain tine's, with a pen in my hand,
that I felt raised above my average
shabby, ina-s'-rtivo miciital level. I was
called modest and retiring. That was
not it at all. I was cowardly, and
thought almost every one I met who had
a pretentions air was in some way to me
nnSnown my superior.
Dret Uarte had then a local Oalifornia
reputation. So had Mark Twain. I met
both of these gentb-Tnen frequently in
The Era office. Charles Warren Stod
dard, Ralph Kceler, who died so myste
riously in Cuba; Newell (Orpheus C.
Kerr), Artemus Ward, Adah Menken
and several other bright people were
regular or occasional contributors to The
Era.
I remained on The Era about a year.
Mr. Lawrence went to-the eastern states.
I left the paper soon afUjr his depart nre,
and sustained myself on a meager in
come by peddling my contributions to
various panel's. 1 wrote a good deal for
The Diamaiie Chronic,..', a tii al.er pro
trramtut uiteet itlnwt in large in a ban-
laughed at the idea. Rut on morning !
; lie did start it. Then they utoppe I '
laughing. i
! Due morning while correcting my
proof in The liramatio Chronicle com. '
, pivsmg room the building commence I
shaking. It shook and shook, and th ci
shook harder. It generated a general
tendency on the part of the printers and
editors to steer rapidly fgr the stairway.
' I wont with tho rest, bringing up thrt
' rear. That was the groat earthquake of
I was the first to go back to tho
' office. It looked as if it had boon em
phatically, industriously and elaborately
struck by lightning. In about three
minutca afterwanl a pjtle, swmsl eom
positor put his hiNtd in the dxr. St
: ing mo, he exclaimed: "Groat (.Kwltt
I Did you stay here through it all?" lu
; advertently I said no. With mow prea-
ence of mind I might have said, "yea,"
' and gaiued a flue and fleeting reputation
for cvmragu. ;
In IStVH I had a call to edit The Stock-'
1 ton llaiette, a Democratic campaign v.
per. 1 obeyed the call, ran Hie papiT ror
five mouths, was well paid, but got tired
j of the job and retired to San Francisco,
where I skirmished again on the ragged
edge of a decent living by throwing in
cviutributious wherever tltey would be
, accepted. In the latter part of 1S7J an
inspiration soited me to go to England
to advance by writing and talking the
good and glory of California, I raised
alnuit f "sH from the business men of Sail
Francisco by representing Ui them the
profitable possibilities of my self iiu-,
IkvsihI mission. t
I raised it in about forty-eight hours,
. Ralston, the noted Kmker, handinl me
( UK) in gold after a curt and crusty in
terview of three minutes. It was like
. hearting the liou in the big banker's
den, but the liou came dowu with the
dust, and 1 left the deu, shaky and per
spiring with the agitation of the inter-
view. But the five gold twenties were
; in my fist. The San Francisco Bulletin
i engaged also to take a certain amount of ,
correspondence from England. '
To England I went I did there the '
1 best I could in writing and talking Call-'
: fornia wherever I fonnd opportunity, in
I cities, towu and Tillages, and think I
earned my t-'oO advance wages. I spent
two years there. I
i One of my greatest troubles was the
j English chairman. One cannot give a
! lecture there without a chairman. The
! chairman must be somebody of impor
1 tance also. The English cannot hear
anybody without a chairman. The pe-',
culiarity and infliction of the English '
chairman is that he will make such a '.
i long speech in introducing you and tell
! tng the audience what yon are going to
1 say, so that by the time he is through
' most of the wind is taken out of your
: sails and the audience want to go home.
( In 1873 The Bulletin made it an ob
, ject for me to visit the Vienna World's
fair. I staid there two months, and got
' back to London with four dollars in my
pocket, thanking my stars that I had
run the gantlet successfully of the many
j languages 1 encountered at different
railway stations, and had not by mistake
got ou some train which might have
' landed me penniless in Turkey or Siberia.
I I returned to America in 1873, bring
i ing only a wife and nine dollars. After
some months of misery as an "occasional
contributor" the San Francisco Bulletin
sent me as correspondent to the Centen-
uial at Philadelphia. I forgot to say
that I operated the preceding winter in
Xew York as a weekly Sunday eveuing
1 lecturer on divers and sundry descriptive
: topics, an occupation that brought me
! more fame than new shirts.
I Once during this phascof my existence
i I preached from a Unitarian pulpit. But
! not acceptably. They never called for
; me again.
Destiny soon after this placed me on
l the editorial stall of the New York
; Graphic. There I suggested the Cou
! densed column of local and general mat
! ter under the title of "History of a
! Day." It was just what the paper want
! ed, for their illustrations took up so
i much room they had not much left for
; local news. Mr. David Cmly was the
I managing editor, and a very good one

A hot un frequent cause of variation
tn type is traceable to the tmpressiou
protliuvd on the nervous system of the'
female at her first coputation, giving '
rise to the stamping of her subsequent (
progeny with one or mow of tho strik- :
ing characteristics of her first mate.:
Many interesting cases of this natural
phenomenon urt) on record, both In the:
eipiine specii's and in othci animals, one
of the most remarkable being that of a :
mare, which twing bred in the first pbtco I
to a qnagga, invariably thereafter pro
duced foals more or less striped.
While in Indiana and Kentucky 1
have frequently noticed horses on th i
street which at the distance of a block i
or two were hard to distinguish from
mules, and on tracing them np when
possible I fonnd that the dams of such
animal had in almost every Instance
been first bred to a jackaaa 1 find this
sort of variation frequently ignored en
tirely by ths breeder for perhaps ery
indifferent and insufficient reason, but
when breeding to a typs it should be by

The great object in confining cattle in
luiuiuer and feeding Uiein green crops is
to save expenses, and to obtain more
profit from each acre on the farm. Pas
turing is nearly always a wasteful prao-j
tice, and a farmer cannot afford to carry
it on where the land is valued at more
than twenty-five dollars an aero. The
average uumber of acres to pasture a
cow through the summer is six, bt if
this same amount of land is carefully!
soiled it will prixtiice sufficient food for
three or four cows, not simply through j
snmmer, but through the winter w;-JL t
There is some land which is not fit for
soiling. The first crop that will be'
fed is rye cut green, which, if sown in I
August or November, may tie fed to the '
cows early i:i tiie spring np to the first ,
of June. After the rye the clover and '
orchard grass nr.? ready, and then the j
com an I peas come in succession, keep
ing the cows supplied with succulent :
gri-en food right through tho spring, !
suuiiuer and fall The silo should also!
be brought into use for preserving some
of the green food for winter Use, and the 1
dairymen can then keep up the milk
flow by supplying the animals with the i
very essential food for milk making. !
In soiling the land for the cows some !
go-id system should be adopted which I
will save all the time and labor possible.
The feeding racks should be as near the j
center of the field as convenient, and the
whole land divided up in sections. Une j
section then should be planted with ear-
ly grass, another with early corn, others i
with summer hard corn and peas, so'
Unit new crops will bo coming into ma- j
turity as one is fed to the animals. The !
disadvantages of the soiling system are
greater labor and time, but the advan- !
tages are economy in feed and mi In- I
creased amount of fodder, and a av Big
of all old manure. E. P. Smith in Amer

In entering on the business of horse
raising, decido first what breed you will
chiefly produce, and then it Is well to
stiuk to that as tho main branch of your
business, if you find you have hit it. hi
deciding between draft horsea and coach
horses, this is to bo remembered there
is more profit in coach horses than in
draft horses, but they are more trouble
to train.
Remember to cull out tho inferiors
from your flock of sheep at least twice a
year and fatten and sell them. Particu
larly never raise any lambs from weak
ami Kcnbby owes.
CaM.le may bo dehorned successfully
airy time of year except in fly time. The
saw is the best tool for performing the
operation. Tho horns of calves mny be
killed when the animals are two or t hree
mouths old and thus all further ojierA
tioiis avoided, In time, horns could b
bred off cattle altogether.
