A Nugget Noe WR w3nteher' rnfre.
Nevada's frst nugget was mined with
a butcher's knife. John Orr Mtarted
across the plains In-1849. The roads
were bad, the weather was worse, and
he was obliged to remain through the
winter at Salt Lake. In April he re
sumed his Journey. He had a partner
named Nick Kelly, after whom Kelly's
Ravine is named, and in the company
was Wm. Preuse, now living in Nurb
City, about forty miles southeast of Bait
Lake. Prouse had worked in mines be
fore gold was discovered In Coloima, and
was a good prospector. One day the
train stopped on the edge of what is
now known as Gold Canyon, near the
Ca reon River, to let the animals feed
on some. bunch grass found growing
among the sage bush. Prouse at noon
time took a pan, and, goingdown to tho
gulch, began washing dirt, in a few
mi nutes getting color to the value of a
feweents. Orr then named the placeGold
Canon. The train soon after resumed
travel, going to the head of the Carson
Valley. There they met a party of
seven, who iad left the train at the sink
of the Humboldt, intending to go in ad
vance to California and select good loca
tions for the remainder of tile party.
-They had been unable to cross the
coutry, and had becon lost in tile snow

able to find the divide to liangltown.
A stay in Carson for three weeks fol
lowed. when Orr, Kelly and several
otlirs returned to Gold Canon and re
sutned prospecting. Kelly and Orr
welt up the canyon until a little fork
wa reached, when work was begun.
The party had a few tools, and Orr had
nothing but a knife. Wile Kelly was
working he noticed a very narrow
place at the fork, where the water

Idly lie exatinted it, and notting a
small crevice near the edge, drove the

where the rock had covered it. It was
quickly rcmuoved, and afterwards fo-und

June, 18-0, nearly thirty years ago.

value of the first-named substances is
acknowledged by all farmers. Many
are unacquainted with tie use of finely
pulverized esrth, but those whlo have
esppioyeg it speak of it In the highest
Lerms. 'fie sweepings of the streets of
most European cities amid towns are
disposed of for more than enough to
pay for collecting them. They are dif
1icult to handle as they tire Ilaole to be
blown about by the wind. When ap.
plied as top-dressing to grass land they
produce remarkably good results. The
lke is true of their use on grain fields.

they accunulate, and alter the water

evaporation, they assume a compact
form. Thie consistency of the tuatorial
allows it to be lifted by the shovel into
earts very readily. It may be spread
over the grass land where it will disin

be applied to soil that is devoted to any
cultivated crops. The value of finey
pulverized soil as a fertilizer is ad
mitted by all who have experimented
with it and itsemployment, will be gen
orat in the agriculture of the future.
SteRDIN(I TO (nASS.-Notwithstand*
ing the tact that grass seeds sell for a
higher price than for several years, it
will be a saviig of cents and inl expelso
of dollars to stint tMe quantity of seed
sown beyond a certain limit. No ex
act quantity culn be named as that ne
oessary to be sown on an acre of
ground, for differcnt varieties of soil
require a dfferent amount of seed. A
sandy soil should have more seed sown
ti it, thain a heavy or fertile one, and
with the harrows commonly used, we
believe that, most farmers do not seed
atillen3tly heavy. With a fi.e, for.
tile, moist tid smooth bed, one peek of
timotly, one-half bushel of red-top,

sutillient to seed an acre. Tito quai

Latterly we have found the following
very good, especially for a late supper
or lunch, eaten only an hour or two
before retiring: Toast some elles of
bread protty well, scraping oil any
blackened, charred portion, lay the

plate, and pour on cold milk enough to
wet it through, and leave half an inch
or so In depth of milk * in the plate.
Gcod milic; a little extra cream in it is
all the better, and a very trifle of salt
Improves it for our taste. Put over the
toast thus prepared an inverted large
earthen bowl, or tin basin, large
enough to cover it and set down upon
Lhe plate all around. Put this in a
warm, not very hot, stove oven, two,
three, or more hours In advance. The
milk will cook and evaporate-and its
substance be condetised in the toast,
while the cover will keep the toast
imolst. It is then very good, and eats
well without butter, though a little

Trout in the Rocky Mountains. -
A writer says, In the month of July,
1808, 1 captured in the headwaters of
the Gualupita River, in the Taos
Mountains, New Mexico, in one
morning's fishing, using a -sixteen
ounce trout rod, made in St. Louis,
fourteen speckled trout, the sinallest ol
which Weilied three pounds and two
ounces, and the largest four pounds
and fourteen ounces. I took these trolit
within half a mile, and the most of
them from under an old beaver dam,
using both fly and grasshopper.
In June, 1869, 1 took from the Rio
Colorado Uhicita, in the same moun
tains. a large number of trout from one
to four pounds, where I do not believe
- any.white man ever fished before. I
3 was on a gold hunting expedition in
- the Cinarron Valley, and had crossed
the mountains for a hunt and fish with
two companions. I had been fishing
Lor some two hours with but little suc
cess, when I reached a spot on the
stream that promised to be a perfect El
Dorado, for my first cast gave me a fine
fish, at least three prounds. For about
100 yards Ihe streaun had narrowed and
deepened, and was well covered by tall
grass; my second east gave me a chance
of fastening to something that upset
ne mentally and physically, for I lost
him in about two minutes, as I did my
i fly and suell. "He's a whopper." said
I to ny self, "and I'll got him before I
go ho0ne,'' bo I marked the spot, and
making a detour, I fished the stream
for a tnile, and took a-turn until after
noon. On retirning I commenced try.
ing to find my lost hook; of course, not
the fish that took it.' Fly after fly,
grasshopper aifter grasshopper, moth,
worm, everytiting I could think of did I
bait with,but a happy thought struck me
I sat down and opened one of my larg
est fish; in his stomach I found piecem
of a kind of root that I did not reco
gnize as ever having seen before; they
were about one-half inch in length,
white, soft., and, on tasting I found
them sweet and aromatic. I concluded
to try one of these pieces as a bait. I
did so, and it was a success, for I struck
a fish that took all m.Y nerve and exper
lence to take care of. For nearly one
hour I did all 1 could to conquer him,
and at last succeeded. And when I
had handed him, by wading in a shal
low lace that I had coaxed him into,
and laid him on the grass, I thought
that it was a very whale in size. I
took him to camp and weighed him.
'.Now for the big part of it; he actully
weighed nine pounds and fourteen
ounces, and it was a trout-the biggest
fish that had ever been seen in New
Mexico. The natives andl people wvho
saw the fish pronounced it a true speck
led trout. The stream is at least 1,500
miles from the sea water, 8,090 foot
above thie sea level, 230 mIles from atry
large stream, and is not more than
fifteen feet widie, and varies from one
to fIve feet deep.
