. California agriculturist and live stock journal. Agriculture -- California; Livestock -- California; Animal industry -- California. California Agriculturist and Live Stock Journal. A MILPITAS FARM. Who has not heard of llilpitas? We take it for granted that everybody knows all about the place. We took a stroll over that way lately and visited the fine-slock farm of Chas. Clark. Mr. Clark is breeding Short-horn cattle, Berkshire swine, and also has some fine farm horses. A yonng stud, sired by Ben Franklin, and out of a fine bay mare be- longing to Mr. Clark, the pedigree of which we do not remember, is a likely looking ani- mal, will weigh about 1,400 jjounds, and is just the sort of stock a farmer needs—not too heavy to be active, and with strength to work as well as a gait to travel on the road. His color is a dappled brown chestnut. The price of service, $20. Mr. C. has not a poor or ordinary looking cow on his place, while he has some very fine ones. He finds it more profitable to raise good stock, in fact, the best he can get; and to that point he went East last year and, in company with Mr. Emerson, of Mountain View, brought out several head of Short-horns of the Duchess strain of blood. His two- yeai'-old bull, Duke of Manchester, is cer- tainly a beauty, as well as of a fii'st-class ped- igree. We give here the pedigree of this bull that all can see for themselves the strain of blood. The price for service of common or graded cows is $10, and for pure-bred Short- horn cows, $20.
