As your regular correspondents have turned their attention to other pursuits, I give you a few notes less your readers may think Westminster too quiet. After two months absence in the East I find here healthy signs of progress, and great hopefulness in future developments. A recent purchase of forty additional acres by a resident of a year’s standing, who came originally from Central New York and then from Colorado, was accompanied with the remark that this was the best dairy country in the United States, favored by both climate, soil and water. Stock have been perfectly healthy this year, and feed has been plentiful. In fact the weediness of this section, which is so evident to strangers after seeing the clean tillled orchards and vineyards of the dryer foothill lands, testifies to the quantity of feed that has grown, and the quality is steadily improving. A number of new pastures have been inclosed the past year, and more are in progress. AN ARITHMETICAL CURIOSITY To find the day of the week for any date within the first thirty centuries of the Christian era: From the number indicating the year drop all to the left of the tens. To this result add its fourth part (regardless of any remainder), the day of the month, index of the month, and index of the century. Divide the sum by 7, and the remainder will be the day of the week, counting Sunday 1, Monday 2, Tuesday 3, Wednesday 4, Thursday 5, Friday 6, and Saturday 0. TABLE OF INDICES FOR MONTHS.

A marvel of condensed information, both useful and trustworthy, with a Thousand or more Engravings, illustrating labor-saving methods and devices in the Field, in the Garden, and in the Household, Animals, Plants, etc., with many large beautiful Pictures; Illustrated Stories for and Instructive Talks with Boys and Girls; Plans of Houses, Barns and Out-Buildings, with Specifications. All these, and much more, will be found in the 42d Volume of the American Agriculturist, now beginning, and at less cost than anywhere in the world. Its exposures of Humbugs, a more valuable feature, is to be pushed with increased vigilance. To the previous staff of editors and contributors many additions are now made, including the best writers all over the country. In its prime, this journal enters its 42d volume, more vigorous than ever, with new writers, new artists, new dress, etc. Though prepared at larger expense than most $3 and $4 magazines, it is owing to its immense circulation supplied post-paid for $1.50 a year, and less to clubs—either English or German edition.

Address Publishers of American Agriculturist, 751 Broadway, New York. A Market for California Wines. WASHINGTON, December 21.—Consul Warner of Dusseldorf, Germany, in an official communication to the State Department, says: "As efforts are being made to encourage the sale of California wines in this part of Germany, I undertook, in conjunction with my friend Professor Stutzer, Director of the German Agricultural Experimental Station for the Rhenish province, to chemically investigate two qualities of wine which I purchased from a wine house in Cologne, namely; Riesling (white) and Zinfandel (red), from St. Helena, Cal. According to Professor Stutzer's opinion the California Riesling is a good wine, having a superior taste and well fitted for importation into Germany. It contains a high percentage of alcohol, and it could be used by wine dealers for mixing with the German lighter wines or be drank alone as a good and strong wine. There is not the least doubt in my mind but that this wine could be brought into very great demand in this country, as the Germans like its taste, and the only objection that they could find against it would be in the price. The real Zinfandel cannot be so well recommended for importation on account of there being too large an amount of sulphate of lime used in the preparation of it, which addition is very much disliked in Germany. The bitartrate of potash contained in this wine forms, with the sulphate of lime tartrate of lime, and a mixture of sulphates exist largely in the wine. They exert an injurious physiological influence on... large a percentage on their valuation as the best lands in the county. We are also satisfied that the period of deterioration of defective lands is past. There was a time when either water, or simple cultivation, by removing the surface covering, and facilitating evaporation, brought up alkali on a considerable part of our lands. The area of good land proof against this seemed at one time to be gradually decreasing. But now the process is reversed. A judicious use of water, and cultivation, is now restoring land. By use as pastures, with abundance of water, even the wastes begin to have a positive value. Alkali is certainly decreasing. We can therefore fairly invite settlers to something definite, for after these ten years of experimenting we know whereof we speak, and can show the proofs of it. We have also learned what to plant on and how to use the defective lands. And if, as is asserted, the area of corn land in Illinois is decreasing, and the area in grass increasing, and the same change is being made in New York, because grass is more profitable, we certainly have something to depend on here for solid prosperity. Our neighbors on the mesa lands bring their young stock and dry cows here for pasturage. We can take good care of them. Our butter, cheese, beef and pork go out to a hungry market. Our corn is fed at home, or sent abroad and brings rich returns. But besides these, on our lands reserved for fruits, we can raise more apples, pears and grapes and as many apricots, peaches and prunes to the acre as they can. Even if we do not raise oranges profitably, and are still experimenting for raisins, have we not in these other points a counterbalancing advantage. Our superior healthfulness for almost all persons not far advanced in consumption, and needing strength, must be conceded in the end. The air is moister, cooler, and more invigorating, and the uncontaminated arteisan water and fresh sea breeze drive away fevers. The time is surely coming when these points will be appreciated. Strangers neglect their own interests by not inquiring into them. Investments here at present prices of improved and unimproved lands will pay largely in the near future, both in net returns and increase of values. What our people now need to do is to use all their natural pasture lands for stock, and increase their planting of tested varieties of fruit, and to show that they discern the signs of the times. Recent purchases of real estate have been made as follows: Thomas Edwards, 80 acres at $20; Wm. Clark, 40 acres at $12½; R. S. Hazard, 40 acres at $15; Robert Eccles, 80 acres at $23, and Jas. A. Smith has engaged 40 acres at $45 and E. P. Justice 20 acres at $22). Other sales are in progress, but not in a shape to be reported. Every color of the Diamond Dyes is perfect.

T., says: During the absence of Mr. Barker of Estelline, his wife left her three children—two of them aged five and three years, and a little babe six months old—in the house while she went out to do chores about the barn. It is thought that the children commenced playing about the fire and set themselves on fire. Mrs. Barker saw the flames and hastened to the house, but two of the little ones were charred corpses, and the fire in the house was under such headway that in rescuing the baby, which afterwards died from the burns it received, she herself came near perishing in the flames, and is now in a critical condition. Cross as a Bear. They had been married only about two years—Mr. and Mrs. Podgkins, I mean. "Oh!" exclaimed the true hearted woman, "he is just as cross as a bear!" meaning her husband, of course. Reader, there was some cause for this state of affairs so soon after the honeymoon. Itching Piles took a firm hold of the naturally kind husband, squeeling every spark of love in his heart. A single box of Swayne's Ointment brought matters round all right again, and now a happier couple does not exist under the sun. Premature grayness avoided by using Parker's Hair Balsam, distinguished for its cleanliness and perfume. Too Many Officers. WASHINGTON, Dec. 29. The raid made on the paymaster's corps of the army in the House this afternoon by General Browne of Indiana has caused a sensation in army circles. It was entirely unexpected. He said that statistics showed that our army had more officers in proportion to privates than any army in the world. There were but 17,657 private, and yet there were 2,622 officers, besides 400 more on the retired list. Of the officers, 55 were paymasters, each of whom had clerks, who were paid by the government to perform whatever duties fell on them. He said there were a number of instances during the late war when one paymaster paid more men than were now in the entire army. The amendment offered by Browne, and adopted as part of the Army Appropriation bill, provides for the gradual extinction of the paymasters' corps by filling no vacancies nor making any promotions, and the transfer of the duties of paymasters to quartermasters, who were, he said, not kept so busy now but that they could perform the additional duty imposed upon them. The army paymasters here say that they are confident they can muster strength enough to have Browne's resolution stricken out when the bill reaches the Senate. Mind Your Own Business. The War Department has addressed the following letter to General E. W. Hinks, a retired army officer living at Useful Receipts. [Nye's Boomerang.] To remove oils, varnishes, resins, tar, oyster soup, currant jelly and other selections from the bill of fare: Use benzine, soap and chloroform cautiously with whitewash brush and garden hose. Then hang on the wood-pile to remove the pungent effluvia of the benzine. To clean ceiling that have been smoked by kerosene lamps or the fragment of fried salt pork: Remove the ceiling, wash thoroughly with borax, turpentine and rain-water, then hang on the clothes-line to dry. Afterward pulverize, and spread over the pie-plant bed for spring wear. To remove starch and roughness from flat-irons: Hold the iron on a large grindstone for twenty minutes or so, then wipe off carefully with a rag. To make this effective, the grindstone should be in motion while the iron is applied. To soften water for household purposes: Put an ounce of quicklime into a certain quantity of water. If it is not sufficient, use less water or more quicklime. Should the immediate lime continue to remain deliberate, lay the water on a stone and pound it with a base-ball club. To give relief to a burn: Apply the white of an egg. The yolk of the egg may be eaten or placed on the shirt bosom, according to taste. If the burn occurs to a lady she may omit the last instructions. To wash black silk stockings: Prepare a tub of lather, composed of tepid rainwater and white soap with Mind Your Own Business. The War Department has addressed the following letter to General E. W. Hinks, a retired army officer living at Tucson, A. T.: Sir: Referring to your personal letter of May 8, 1882, to the Secretary of War, in which you stated that much of the want of confidence and the feeling of contempt entertained by the people of Arizona toward the army is due to the apparent demoralization existing among representatives of the army stationed in Arizona and charging misconduct on the part of certain officers and men upon arrival at and departure from Tucson on that date, I am directed by the General of the Army to inform you that, after full investigation of the matters contained in your letter, which are in every particular controverted by the statements of numerous gentlemen, among whom may be named the Governor of Arizona, he is constrained to advise you to mind your own business and not meld in the affairs of the lawful military of Arizona. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, [Signed.] Chauncy McIver, Acting Adjutant General. A California Tree. There was recently felled in Sonoma county, California, a tree which cut up as follows. The Petulama Argus says that the details can be relied upon. The standing height of the tree was 247 feet, and its diameter near the ground was 14 feet. In falling the top was broken off 200 feet distant from the stump, and up to the point of breaking the tree was perfectly sound. From the tree sawlogs were cut out of the following lengths and diameters: 1st, 14 feet long, 9 feet diameter; 2d, 12 feet long, 8 feet diameter; 3d, 12 feet long, 7 feet 7 inches diameter; 4th, 14 feet long, 7 feet 6 inches diameter; 5th, To give relief to a burn: Apply the white of an egg. The yolk of the egg may be eaten or placed on the shirt bosom, according to taste. If the burn occurs to a lady she may omit the last instructions. To wash black silk stockings: Prepare a tub of lather, composed of tepid rainwater and white soap with a little ammonia. Then stand in the tub till dinner is ready. Roll in a cloth to dry. Do not wring, but press the water out. This will necessitate the removal of the stockings. If your hands are badly chapped wet them in warm water, rub them all over with Indian meal, then put on a coat of glycerine, and keep them in your pockets for ten days. If you have no pockets convenient, insert them in the pockets of a friend. Woolen goods may be nicely washed if you put half an ox-gall into two gallons of tepid water. It might be well to put the goods into the water also. If the mixture is not strong enough put in another ox-gall. Should this fail to do the work, put in the entire ox, reserving the tail for soup. The ox-gall is comparatively useless for soup, and should not be preserved as an article of diet. Chicago, Dec. 23.—General Sherman, having been accused of having the "Presidential bee in his bonnet," was recently interviewed upon the subject, and thus declared himself: "You see I cannot be too enough to decline what is not offered, but why do I want to turn from the prospect of rest and peace, at least for a period of years to the delusion, of four years in an office that is just hell. That's what it is. It is hell. What did General Harrison get out of it? Nothing but a month of misery. What did General Taylor get out of it? Twelve months of misery. What did Graft get out of it? [?] Do I want to resign this competence that Congress has bestowed on me for four years of hell? What did Hayes get out of the presidency? What did Garfield get? Take them all within your memory; nothing but worry, trouble and misunderstanding." Every description of watches, clock and jewelry always on hand. ERRORS OF YOUTH.

In falling the top was broken off 200 feet distant from the stump, and up to the point of breaking the tree was perfectly sound. From the tree sawlogs were cut of the following lengths and diameters: 1st, 14 feet long, 9 feet diameter; 2d, 12 feet long, 8 feet diameter; 3d, 12 feet long, 7 feet 7 inches diameter; 4th, 14 feet long, 7 feet 6 inches diameter; 5th, 16 feet long; 7 feet diameter; 6th, 16 feet long, 6 feet ten inches diameter; 7th, 16 feet long, 6 feet 6 inches diameter; 8th, 16 feet long, 6 feet 4 inches diameter; 9th, 16 feet long, 6 feet 3 inches diameter; 10th, 18 feet long, 6 feet diameter; 11th, 12 feet long, 5 feet ten inches diameter; 12th, 18 feet long, 5 feet 6 inches diameter. It will thus be seen that 180 feet of this remarkable tree was converted into saw logs. The Immigration Association. San Francisco, Dec. 22.—The first annual meeting of the Immigration Association was held to-day. Secretary Street reported that during the year there had been 955 applications, in person, at his office for land and 2,497 by letter. Fifty-five thousand pamphlets in English and twenty-six thousand in foreign languages, describing the available lands of the State, had been sent out. President Briggs read a report of his trip to the Eastern States. He found that east of Chicago but little is known of California and that European emigrants arriving at Castle Garden mostly have their baggage already checked for different points in the West, showing that the society should do its role in Europe rather than in New York. Springfield, Mass., Dec. 23.—Ellen Duncan of Palmer was yesterday convicted of an assault upon her stepson, Alfred Duncan, aged six years, with intent to maim. The maiming, which was revolting in the extreme, will probably result in injuring temporarily, the boy’s reason. The deed was committed with a knife, the woman waking the child from sleep to perpetrate it. Galesburg, Dec. 23.—Last evening a trunk fell from the top of a track that was taking a load from a train and burst open, disclosing the gory body of a man, thirty years old, with his throat cut from ear to ear. A man on the train was discovered holding the check tallying with that on the trunk. He was detained but refused to talk. The trunk had been checked from Chicago. “Slow and steady wins the race.” Steadily, but not slowly. Kidney Wort is distancing all competition for universal popularity and usefulness.
