Foothill Lan.uvs. The Four Corners in referring to the foothill lands of Nevada, Placer, Yuba Sutter counties says: The time is coming very shortly, when our farming lands. will be acknowledged as among the best in the State. Little attention has been paid to irrigation mutters for the reasor it was generally held that irrigation is n®& necessary. This fact is now demonstrated beyond doubt, . for the young orange yroves néar. Wheatland “were planted upon the; highest of the red lands. There were . 1000 trees planted. Two hundred o them were planted in a sandy flat or second bottemn, ibe balance were in{ thes upland. Fewer failed to} come on the upland, and the growth . fully as thrifty.

An Old Sportsman Tells What He Knows About the Frolicsome Bird. : One ot the most delightful hunting sports that was indulged in toa large extent. twenty-five and thirty years ago on the wide, level prairies of Illinois has been forever suppressed by the encroachments of civilization; I allude to sand-hill crane hunting. There was more delicate ski!l required in this sport than in any otber kind of hunting, perhaps, for the sand-hill crane is one of those birds that is noted for its extreme shyness, and for acuteness of sight and hearing; and, therefore, the hunter had to employ the most skillful artifices to attain any success whatever in the sport. The crane is a wading bird, conspicuous in its make-up for legs and neck as exceedingly slim and long as those of the obnoxious animal, genus dude It has a long, sharp-pointed bill, long wings, short’ tail and short, strong claws. They are very: large birds, some measuring from tip of bill to the end of the claws sixty-five inches; extent» of wings ninety-two, and bill six. They are generally of a bure white color, . but some ave @ bluish gray tint. The sand-bill cranes frequent marshes, muddy flats and open plains, migrating to warm climates in winter and returning to the North in the summer to breed. They fly usually at. night in arge flocks, following a leader in two liverging lines, at-a gveat elevation, ind at times uttering loud cries. Their ‘ood consists principally of. small snakes, fish, mice, insects, seeds, roots d‘grain. Theold sand-hill cranes ise. to cone in immense flocks in thé nic.lls of October and remain until the niddie of Aprilin Dlinois, and their amiliar cries were heard aiong the arge sloughs and low, swampy dewessions in the vast prairie regions ’ fthe State. They fed upon the worms nd fish and ground mfte in these aaurshes. Some very peculiar habits vere exhibited by these sand-hills, nd it seemed that they were divided ito colonies, each of which had a ader, whose. cy was the supreme aw. In the airy mornings of the arly autumn days large numbers of he.cranes-wou'd tongregate around-a ‘ough and. all join in a regular quadile, forming in couples-in due form, ind going through all the intricate nezes of this particular style of Terpsichorean pleasure as faultlessly i3 the. beaux and belles in a West End dance. True, some of he young cranes were awkward, but he-old ones presented all the longimbed grace of a Mary Anderson in er f Perdita. But while the ged in dancing, the leader e and still, some distance vay, with head erect, as if a sentinel >the ery of alarm on any -apDroach Of danger. And it was only ie most-expert hunters that ever surised the cranes, for their-leader was eyer unwary, but as watchful with ensitiv: and keen eye as any solier on picket duty. But the ingenious iind of the hunter finally hit upon a jan that, coupled with his own paience and practice, was moderately uccessful. Horses were trained to teal softly with light steps over the long waving prairie grizs, up to the spot where the cranes were either “rauousty €ngagzed in searching for ‘ood. By this means the horses car-tied their riders within shooting distance of the cranes, and before the birds could poise preparation would oc} toodait for flight the horses suddenly spring in their midst, and. the hunters were thus given excellent opportunity for fine shots. Hunters had learned that it took a moment for the birds to poise before flying. But it was an impossibility for a hunter to. walk*within shooting distance of a flock without the leader giving acry of-ala-m. Hunt2rs have crawled for a quarter of a mile through the long prairie grass, over the wet marsh, mud and black foam cf Illinois, and when almost within shooting” distance and on the very tipt e of expectancy, the leader of the cranes would give the alarm and away the flock would. fly to some adjoining slough. The poor hunter was left to dry his <!othes, scrape the mud offand use language not at all conducive to a devotional frame of mind. Fixzally horses were trained to walk quic*'y up to where the cranes were congregated and rush suddenly upon them. It wag a-well-knewn-fact that a hunter could ride horseback most up to the slough where the sranes wereand they would notdetect iim, or at lez t. take him and the animal to be on and the same being. It required lng patience to train the horses, but the animals finally came to. enjoy the sport with as much zest, apparently. « _ _=tore themselves. ll ‘Monkeys Raiding a Corn-Field.

An Old Sportsman Tells What He Knows About the Frolicsome Bird. : One ot the most delightful hunting sports that was indulged in toa large extent. twenty-five and thirty years ago on the wide, level prairies of Illinois has been forever suppressed by the encroachments of civilization; I allude to sand-hill crane hunting. There was more delicate ski!l required in this sport than in any otber kind of hunting, perhaps, for the sand-hill crane is one of those birds that is noted for its extreme shyness, and for acuteness of sight and hearing; and, therefore, the hunter had to employ the most skillful artifices to attain any success whatever in the sport. The crane is a wading bird, conspicuous in its make-up for legs and neck as exceedingly slim and long as those of the obnoxious animal, genus dude It has a long, sharp-pointed bill, long wings, short’ tail and short, strong claws. They are very: large birds, some measuring from tip of bill to the end of the claws sixty-five inches; extent» of wings ninety-two, and bill six. They are generally of a bure white color, . but some ave @ bluish gray tint. The sand-bill cranes frequent marshes, muddy flats and open plains, migrating to warm climates in winter and returning to the North in the summer to breed. They fly usually at. night in arge flocks, following a leader in two liverging lines, at-a gveat elevation, ind at times uttering loud cries. Their ‘ood consists principally of. small snakes, fish, mice, insects, seeds, roots d‘grain. Theold sand-hill cranes ise. to cone in immense flocks in thé nic.lls of October and remain until the niddie of Aprilin Dlinois, and their amiliar cries were heard aiong the arge sloughs and low, swampy dewessions in the vast prairie regions ’ fthe State. They fed upon the worms nd fish and ground mfte in these aaurshes. Some very peculiar habits vere exhibited by these sand-hills, nd it seemed that they were divided ito colonies, each of which had a ader, whose. cy was the supreme aw. In the airy mornings of the arly autumn days large numbers of he.cranes-wou'd tongregate around-a ‘ough and. all join in a regular quadile, forming in couples-in due form, ind going through all the intricate nezes of this particular style of Terpsichorean pleasure as faultlessly i3 the. beaux and belles in a West End dance. True, some of he young cranes were awkward, but he-old ones presented all the longimbed grace of a Mary Anderson in er f Perdita. But while the ged in dancing, the leader e and still, some distance vay, with head erect, as if a sentinel >the ery of alarm on any -apDroach Of danger. And it was only ie most-expert hunters that ever surised the cranes, for their-leader was eyer unwary, but as watchful with ensitiv: and keen eye as any solier on picket duty. But the ingenious iind of the hunter finally hit upon a jan that, coupled with his own paience and practice, was moderately uccessful. Horses were trained to teal softly with light steps over the long waving prairie grizs, up to the spot where the cranes were either “rauousty €ngagzed in searching for ‘ood. By this means the horses car-tied their riders within shooting distance of the cranes, and before the birds could poise preparation would oc} toodait for flight the horses suddenly spring in their midst, and. the hunters were thus given excellent opportunity for fine shots. Hunters had learned that it took a moment for the birds to poise before flying. But it was an impossibility for a hunter to. walk*within shooting distance of a flock without the leader giving acry of-ala-m. Hunt2rs have crawled for a quarter of a mile through the long prairie grass, over the wet marsh, mud and black foam cf Illinois, and when almost within shooting” distance and on the very tipt e of expectancy, the leader of the cranes would give the alarm and away the flock would. fly to some adjoining slough. The poor hunter was left to dry his <!othes, scrape the mud offand use language not at all conducive to a devotional frame of mind. Fixzally horses were trained to walk quic*'y up to where the cranes were congregated and rush suddenly upon them. It wag a-well-knewn-fact that a hunter could ride horseback most up to the slough where the sranes wereand they would notdetect iim, or at lez t. take him and the animal to be on and the same being. It required lng patience to train the horses, but the animals finally came to. enjoy the sport with as much zest, apparently. « _ _=tore themselves. ll ‘Monkeys Raiding a Corn-Field.
