FROM CALIFORNIA.
Sax Diego, Cal., Feb. 27, 1886.
Fuekd Hosmer: The Arrow-Head
hot springs are I6,in number andRre
(Tn, and about a plateau or mesa on
the south-western slope ol the San
Bernardino mountains, elevation 2,000
leet. A fine view is had of the Santa
Ana Valley, including the towns of
San Bernardino, Colton and Kiverside.
The springs derive their names from
blase or bare spot on the mountain
side in shape of an arrow head, point
ing downward to j the springs. This
arrow head has an area of Jive acres
is perfectly formed and can be plainly
seen for 25 miles. Nothing willgro
there, although all around it well
defined edges is aLheavy growth of
sage brush, chapperal, etc. It is a
great curiosity and came there in this
way. At the time of the war in Heav
en a scene occured not recorded by
Milton in "Paradise Lost." When the
devil found himself vanquished, he
retreated to our earth, alighting on a
mountain at the head of Devil's Canon
5milesest ol the springs. From
here he slid down to the valley and
ehied along the base of the range
until he came opposite to the present
locality of the springs. Here the great
Archangel discovered him and let fly
an arrow lrotn heaven. Tois his
Satanic Majesty avoided by plunging
into the bowels of the earth, from
which he sent forth a stream of boiling
sulphurous water to prevent further
pursuit. The springs, ..and the only
natnral arrow mark in the world, re
maining to attest the truth of the
story. Who can doubt it? Temper
ature of springs from 145 to 218 de
grees. Medicinal effect: Light, pur
gative, valuable for rheumatism, gout,
and all, blood and skin diseases, a
new $10,000 hotel, good facilities for
hot water, vapor and mud baths, pure
mountain air. Delightful mountain
scenery. Gentlemanly proprietors. If
you ever visit Southern California
plan to spend a few weeks at the
springs. A day's journey brings us to
San Diego in the very southwest
corner of the United States. As we
can go no farther in this direction we
' -will have to turn back, having reached
a place where people do not talk
about "go west." We are in 14 miles
of the Mexico line, and 2700 miles of
Bed Cloud. San Diego is a city 7000
inhabitants, situated on a harbor of
the same name, and one of the best
harbors of its size in the world- Is the
terminus of the Atchison, Topeka, and
Santa Fe system of roads and is des
tined to become a place of somo com
mercial importance. It is noted as
having the most equable climate in
America, if not the world. The re
cords show an average variation of
of temperature of 8 between summer
and, winter. The variation of South
ern California in general is claimed to
v ba but 10, consequently it is a great
resort of invalids and always will be.
To-this source, the county must look
for its main revenue. Take the cli
mate away and little would be left.
- ' The country around San Diego for 151
miles is lam out in 'additions," and a
. . . 7
large part ot the inhabitants are en
gaged in trying to sell these "lots" to
eastern people, and the pilgrims from
frozen north bite quite lively, and
much property is changing hands at
good figures, and the city is growing
rapidly. The city needs sidewalks,
street crossings, pavements, street,
cars, electric lights, etc, badly, and no
doubt iu the near future these metro
politan appliances will be furnished.
Our stay here is shortandjtomorrow we
leave on the Pacific Ocean steamer

though very nice, are notj'bread and

and gain information before settling.
Above all, if you 7 are reasonably well
fixed where you are, don't come. The
climate of Southern California, has
been less misrepresented than any
thing else here, and is truly magnifi
cent. There is more well behaved
sunshine to the acre here than any
place I ever saw. I believe a man
can get about 125 days more ot real
life in a year, than in the blizzard
swept north, (or east, as they call it
here) If you must come, better "burn

of things here with a will, and most
ikely you will succeed. Los Angeles

described in a lormer letter, and we
cast anchor in the metropolis of the
Pacific coast. Leaving Mrs. O. with
friends here I take a trip south into
the Santa Clara Valley. Had a pleas
ant chat yesterday at Gilroy with our
former townsman J. P. Bayha, who
seems very well suited with his newly
chosen country. As to the good points
he says the half was not told him,
while many of the unfavorable things
he finds to be positively untrue. This
Valley is my chosen part of California
so far as I have seen it. It conies a
little nearer a paradise on earth than
anything I have seen. If the Garden
of Eden was situated anywhere in
California I think it was in the Santa
Clara Valley. Wojld describe this
town, (San Jose) -and surroundings,
but believe you prefer short letters. A
few days in 'Frisco and wc will turn
our steps regretfully towards home
to again take up the thread of life in a

VETERINARY.
The Alarming Prevalence of Glan
ders in Our Western States Na
sal Gleet.--Farsy and Glanders.
At recent meeting of the Illinois
live stock commissioners glanders were
reported to be prevailing to an alarm
ing extent in many different counties
of the State. The State Vetcrinaian of
Iowa, who was present at the meeting
reported that his state was no better
off. The weekly Inter Ocean has a good
opportunity to know that danders is
prevailing to an alarming extent in
many of our Western States and
territories, as well as in the states of
Illinois and Iowa. This paper which
has the largest circulation of any
weekly in the west, is daily in receipt
of innumerable letters which come to
the office for the veterinary depart
ment from all parts of the Western
States seeking advice for the sick and
disabled animals, and many of the
letters received civo a descrintion of
v symptoms peculiar to glanders. Indeed
two of the letters which we publish iu
this issue arc on that subject. We
simply state these facts in the interest
of our numerous hiibscriuers to warn
them of the increasing danger ot this
much to be dreadod malady and the
importance of reporting all such sus
picious cases to tho proper authorities
at once as the only true way to stamp
out the disease.
P. C. Snnrrinr Xnli cover T 1inv o
C year old mare that last fall hail4rr
I called tho I'it'-amnnfc.. -rw i V
undp"-?580 broke
wmfijavanu run ai uiu nose.
She has broken five or six times, nun
at the nose all the time, and is in lino
condition.
From the history of tho above caso
we think it probable that the patient
was primarily attacked with what is
known as strangles (nose distemper),
but it is alfo stated that as a sequel to
the distemper which occurred tive or
six months ago the patient is affected
with a chronic discharge from the
nose. This fnct is to say the least,
very suspicious. We cannot encour
age the treatment of subjects atlected
with symptoms which are atn'l similar
to glanders. This policy may per
haps at first thoimht appear hardly
consistent with the rights of our sub
scribers, but in view of the tho re
markable prevalence of this disease,
and the danger of its being commui
cated to men, as well us other animals,
our ceurso is justifiable. Too much
caution cannot be exercised in dealing
with such cases, or too much can not
be said to warn innocent people of the
great danger to be apprehended from
tampering with diseased horses, es
pecially if they are affected with ma
lignant and incurable malady which
the owher is led to believe is nothing
but a "nistemper," "nasal gleet" or
some other disease he is led to belisve
is not contagious.
T. M. S., Cambridge, Neb: J have a
6 year old horse that broke out iu
sores on head, breast, and belly. I ap
plied lard and sulphur and gave salt
peter. The sores dried up. Soon
after the horso commenced discharg
ing a very offensive matter from the
right nostril. He has been discharging
now for over three months and it does
not appear to affect his strength or
appetite.
We do not think there is the slight
est doubt that the patient u affected
with the glanders, which appears to
haye occurred as a sequel to an attack
of farcy. The fact that the strength or
appetite of the subject does not appear
to be affected must not be considered
as evidence in fayor ot his not being
affected with glanders. It is a well
known fact that a horse may be affect
ed with chronic glanders of a malig
nant type and at the same time may
have every indication of health. This
is one of the lemarkable and danger
ous peculiarities ot this disease. It is
sometimes so insiduous and obscure
and so liable to te mistaken for other
diseases by men' who are not convers
ant with the distinguishing symptoms
that the only prudent course to adopt
