The cost of the wheel and sustaining structure, varies fromseventy-five dollars to two hundred and fifty dollars each, depending on size and may wear out in time by constant use ; but, owing to their extreme simplicity,are less liable to get out of order than any other self-regulating wind wheel The grand feature of the month of September, with our industrial classes, and all who feel inter-ested in the prosperity of California, will be found in the numerous fairs—state and county, agri-cultural and mechanical—that in succession will occupy nearly the whole of the month.
