Sav one of ouiyoung men is gomgawny, no matter , where, but say' he is going to Tnllfol\ Japan, for instance, if he will accept of it the corresponding member here will give him a card of introduction, which he presents to the secretary ofthe Y. M. C. A. in Tokio, and he is among friends at once, no matterwhether he is a Christian or not, theywill take a livelv interest in him, find him a good place to board and assist him in getting employment if he needsit, and look after him generally. Remember for this he pays nothing, it is done purely for the sake of doing j good. If a man wishes to pay five dollars for a non-resident member’s ticket, which will be recognized anywhere in California, and he can enjoy most of the preceedings of a Y. M. C.A. If he gets a ten dollar ticket he is Admitted to all the privileges of aiiy association in the State and it will introduce him’ to any association in the world. At present we are not really working as an association, and yet in a way we are a part of it, in short we are so as to speak—a Y. M. C. A. in embrvo, and if there is staying qualities enough in the Christian men of our colonv, welshall no doubt in the near future become a full-fledged association. We are trying to carry it in the most economical manner, so that no one will pay veryr much, and this being the case we must of a necessity square our work to our inpome. We need a library in connection with the reading room. I believe that most if not all of the subscribers to the library now in D. A. Sovereign’s store,nr C ’are willing to donate their interest in it, to the association. This can be made larger without working any hardship on anyone, and South Riverside will have what every town•mshould have, a library.If every one in the town who could spare a volume would donate one to this cause, (and most everyone could do so'and not feel it.) we should at once have a library. I will donate three volumes of mv own to this work. Who will benext? Remember this will give all a chance of reading matter they do not nowjiave. Now send in y'our books: If you insist on giving more than one volume, why it will hurt no one, and onlv do you good. The people of our colony always respond handsomely to every thing that tends to improve the town, so I expect to see an array of people, each with books uqder theirarms, and leaving them in D. A. Sovereign’s furniture store Be sure you put a slip of paper in the book,» *• lt;a i • 1^*1 / j l. _ *11mediate friends of the bride and gro'om were present, but manv and sincere are the wishe.s of the entire community for the h£ppv union and prosperous voyage of life of the deservedly popular young people.oiO'HtlInti■*»tlaiciAhiaiRwrumsiLet’s Live at Home.Plt;tliinloinininStlilthcktoStofalerptreSiaevthThe Florida Farm and Fireside gives some excellent advice to the people of Florida which is just as applicable to the people of California and which is as follows:If the cold spell convinces the farmers and fruit-growers of the State, of the necessity of producing everything they need for their own consumption, it will be worth al! it has cost them.The man who grows products for the market and relies on buying what he uses, is dependent, both in buyingI •* * vand in selling. The man who first produces for his own use is independent.Corn and wheat will produce much more to the acre in Iowa or Dakota than in Florida, except in locations in the State especially adapted to their growth, and the Floridian who uses corn and wheat grown in the West, pays an added price 011 account of transportation and handling. In the case of oranges—not an article of necessity—lie agains- pays for freight handling, and is dependent on the condition of the market and (in many cases to his misfortune)on the honesty of the commission merchant.But if the people af Florida will produce the articles they consume—and they can do it—the products theythrow on the market will bring better prices, because the market will not be glutted with Florida products, and even if they did, our people jje would be better prepared to stand i this roca anaiMLiR(ofzoS'c\la:wvclower prices.As a rule Florida’s product ' fgrain per acre is not very great. Still it is great enough to justify our people in producing enough for their own use. Certainly with such profitable crops as cane, tobacct) and potatoes, there is 110 excuse for the farmer who bin s. With such wide ranges for cattle, milk, butter,cheese and mcatsshould be plentiful. Then, with the waters filled with fish and oysters, it is hard to see why our State should import and kind of food-sluffs.Alter having everything needed for home uses, our people can export sugar, tobacco, hbers, tropical fruits, early vegetables, melons and a thousand one things that would not be used to pay for the food we consume, but would be a clearprofit, or.would g re our farmers comfort that thevcedre11H:a : ed urI tdi MI wlt;guagricultural . classes enjoy nowhere (or each book',) and it (or they) will else in the world.
