WOODVILLE ONTARIO, FRIDAY, JANUARY 27, 1888. From QOcts. up. A P. D. McARTIIUR. WOODVILLE. Judging from the columns of your paper, Mr. Editor, as the days get cold. er and colder the temperance atmos- phere grows hotter and better, that is I mean, in the vicinity of Beaverton, as out here the public generally assist so well at the apparently pleasant task of “putting down" strong liquids that tem- pcrance does not have a chance to get ‘ even warm, the temperance sentiment l here is “frozen out“ so to speak. The ‘ situation in Beaverton has tended to‘ a show at all events. that thereis an im- me no amount of literary talent latent in the citizens of Beaxerton and that all it requires is bringinggout. I was very much struck by a \‘Qg original idea pro- pounded by a suppa‘rter of a certaih phase of temperance, through the columns of your paper. It was, “that lsupporters of the Scott Act are in the lfrcquent habit of coal oiling their own I i l l residences and then setting them atire or getting themselves shot or sending themselves infernal machines or putting \dynamite under their front verandahs land blowing themselves into eternal smash“ and numerous other little [diversions of a similiar nature, and all {this that innocent(?) and unsuspecting hotelkeepers might be blamed for it. Oh! ye gnileless hotelkeepers, at the distance of 4000 miles I weep for you in your persecutions. I also notice another scribe who vigorously propounds his lviews from a temperance standpoint. . His chief peculiarity seems to be his low l estimate of himself, he owns most 'solemnly in every article written that he does not “wield the pen of the ready scribe" yet still he appears to “bob up serenely" every week with an article as ‘long as before. I don't really lmow l what kind of a pen he does wield, but I he comes to time just the same. The l weather out here since New Year’s has I been so erratic that the “oldest inl.ab'.- l taut” has been cudgelling his brains to l find a parallel. Snow fell in Sacramen- to also iu Santa Cruz, a hitherto un. known circumstance for the latter place. While down in Los Angelos the mer~ cury got down to 30° which was colder than it was some places 700 miles far- ! the: north. Les Angelos has also been (so far the wettest place in the whole State, while in former years the rainfall I there was the least, so that even Cali- fornian weather is not always to be de- 'pcnded upon. While in Santa Cruz I | noticed something which amused me a good deal. It was an improvised toboggan slide. The hills from recent } rains were covered “with a soft, greasy mud, and the Santa Cruz youths were not slow to seize upon this favourable op- portunity for sliding pieces of plank about a foot square, and seated upon these the boys made excellent progress I in the descending of the hill. The per- . formance was not characterized by 'cleanlincss, but this only appeared to add enjoyment, It was the first time I had ever seen a mud toboggan slide in I operation and it amused me a good deal. At present I am in Sacramento a city which to my mind is the acme of un- picturesqueness, both physically and I architecturally, The stores and public ' buildings are unpicturcsquo to a degree ' being mostly only two stories in height ' and in a great number of cases only one. [and with large unsightly verandahs in ‘ front, but these I presume, are rendered i necessary by the intense heat of summer. , The state capitol is the only building f that relieves the dreary monotony of surrounding ugliness. _Tho city is built on the extremely low and marshy l ground along the banks of the Sacramen- i to river, whose dirty cinnamon colored l waters do not add beauty to the scene. i Sacramento is however the centre of I trade for the great Sacromonto Valley. I which produces probably as must fruit I and grain as the rest of the state com- bined. Apples. grapes, peaches, pears, apricots, ualnnts, oranges and in fact almost any kind of the semi-tropical Ca3ifmnian L‘unespondence. By a. Beavcrton Boy. ‘C’h‘ii‘dren cry for fruits grow here abundantly. The common fallacy that the Les Augelos district is the 'only one where citrus . fruit will mature properly is 110w ex- ploded. as it has been found that oranges ‘ grown in the Sacramento Valley are as good as the Les Angeloa fruit and ripen 1 fully three weeks earlier, but from all I can learn grape culture pays better than anything else. After four years where he Vines are in proper bearing condition the return is from $175 to 250 dollars per acre. Good uncleared land suitable for fruit growing can be bought for from fifteen to forty dollars per acre in this district while in Los Angolos the extor- tionate price of from 500 to 1000 dollars per acre is charged. The boom is the cause of the abnormal prices in the latter district. The raisin product of California. has almost doubled itself dur- innr the last year. over 14,000,000 lbs. being produced. while the estimate for next season is 20,000,000 lbs. If this ratio of increase is kept up fora few years California will be producing all the raisins consumed in America. I have just been listening to an old miner of ‘49 giving some of his experiences during he first days of the gold excite- ment. Many of his stories sounded like readings from books of the “dime" stamp. In those days everything had to be packed into “camp" from San Francisco on mules. Board was 88 per day, a tallow candle was worth a dollar and a man's life not worth as much as either. A miner could wash out about sixty dollars worth of gold 0. day and just lose about that much every night at gambling. Individual mining is almost unknown now in California except by Chinese who wash over old dirt and make about 85 per dav. Large com- ; panics have taken the place of individual ‘ work; California still standsat the head ‘ as a gold producinn state althounh in I the aggregate of piecious metals both ‘ Colorado and Nevada are ahead of her. I think it was Bret Harte who said t‘ lat, For ways that are dark and for tricks that are Vain. The heathen Chince is peculiar. Formerly 1 accepted this as true on the author' s assertion, but now I know it from experience. While in Santa Cruz. we had a guileless looking celestial who usually undertook the task of doing our “washee.” 0n the morning after Christmas he appeared as usual, his ex- pressive physioguomy wearing an un~ usually happy and innocent expression, aSif his Christmas rats had been fat and tender. As he was leaving he took up an umbrella which was standing by the door while his countenance assumed an expression childlike and bland as he asked, "Is this m) umblelee." I said I (lid not know. Without waiting to see. John bolted out with the “umblelee.” On reappeariug the following week he was confronted by the owner of the umbrella. John’s explanation was “me no want to steal umblelee, mo memory ba( .“ It was noticed on several occa- sions that John was short in his returns but the invariable excuse was “me for- get, me memory velly bad." Yours trulyL Ilollowny's Pills.â€"Wrongs made right. -â€"Every day that any bodily suffering is permitted to continue renders it more certain to become chronic or dangerous. Hollowuy‘s purifying. cooling and strengthening Pills are well adapted for any irregularity of the human body and should be taken when the stomach is disordered, the liver deranged. the kid- neys inactive, the bowels torpid or the brain muddled. With this medicine every invalid can cure himself and those who are weak and infirm through imper- fect digestion may make themselves strong and stout by Ilollowny‘s excellent Pills. A few doses of them may mitigate the most painful symptonm canned by undigested food. from which they thoroughly free the alimentary emmi and completely restore its natural power and action.
