Nadeau and Frye, Oh the Bres
ranch, is turning out well. The
grain Is very fine and the yield
quite fair for such a season as the
present. A little less than one
fourth of tue crop has been thresh
ed out, and the yield is upward ol
seven thousand sacks. Sixty men
are employed in the threshing op.
erations. The whole tract will
probably yield thirty thousand
sacks, giving an average of twenty
sacks to the acre. Most of the bar
ley sown by Mr.. Nadeau OIL the
Centinela rancho is turning out
well, especially the later sown
fields. Much of that which was
planted before the first rain lodged:
but, taking the average, the crop
will be fair one.
The crop prospects of the Los
Nietos valley are thus reviewed hy
the Downey Courier: "From an
interview with many farmers of
the valley, and other Information
We have been able to gather, we
conclude that splendid crops of
corn are assured, provided the
water troubles are settled satisfac-
torily TO the mass of farmers, so
that the cornflelds can be irrigated
when they require it. Some fields
have required replanting several
times, on account of worms, and as
q consequence, the corn Is rather
small, though doing we'll now. We
have seen some magnificent corn
fields this year, rs thrifty as were
ever beheld even in this prolific
valley. The worms have disap-
peared, and the genial sun hastens
the growth of the cereal. AS we
have said, the prospect for an
abundant yield of corn is now
promising.

an audience of about one hundred
persons from the steps of the Court
House. Col. Redstone as an ora
tor is notably inferior to many of
our local speakers OF the Working
mems organization, and he failed
either to hold or to enthuse his
audience. The portion of his har-
angue heard by us was of feeble
but incendiary character.
