Agriculture -- California; Livestock -- California; Animal industry -- California. when cut into, th-j kidneys were badly affect- ed, and the bowels were plugged up with the earth the animals had eaten. The gall was enlarged, and the liver affected. When the disease appeared, the animals had been eat- ing nothing but dry feed for some time, and had had the run of a stubble field, with plenty of good water, air and exercise. The successful treatment consisted iu opening the bowels with physic, giving clysters to aid evacuation, and assisting each organ to do its proper work in freeing the bowels and blood of impurities. The animals are now in good order, and show little ill effects from the sick- ness. The two breeding bulls of this herd are of superior blood. Master Maynard, three years old, of fine form and pedigree. Duchess pre- dominating, is a model of symmetry. We lost the notes we took the day we visited the herd, and cannot give particulars as to names and pedigrees, but Mr. Jones has them all at his tongue's end, as familiarly as possible. The two year old bull is also very fine; in- deed, these two bulls were selected East last Fall by Mr. Joues, aud are of the best blood extant. Among his fine cows are two that it is hard to choose between for perfect beauty. They cost Mr. Jones $1,600 each. One of them has a red IjuU calf which Mr. Joues values at $1,000âno lessâand he is worth the money. A finer lot of young calves were never seen on this Coast. The most of them are bull calvesâunfortunately, Mr. Jones thinks, for him, but we tell him forhmatdy for this State, as our stock men need hundreds of such to breed to their herds. We expect Jones & Co. will publish the pedigrees of this herd soon. It ^AW ijay any stock man to visit Avenue Ranch, talk with the proprietors, and judge of the merits of the animals for himself.
