As the vines grow old ‘the ‘yield will increase, and tlie anual income from this single acre of ground ought in time to be from two to four thousahd dollars per year!

The Board of Supervisors have heard all ‘the reasons for and against the cupola, The Board has among its members a competent’ mechanic, who worked upon the building and is perfectly familiar with its strength. He and all other carpenters say that the building will sustain such a superstructure} without the least damage. There seems . to he no objection on the score of cost, to the proposed improvement, but on the contrary, the people desire to have the publie property as attractive as it can be made. We are satisfied that the Board will do what is best in the premises.
