THANKSGIVING

The Occide,d takes very curious
and unusual view of Thanksgiving
day and its proper observance. 1t
expresses the opinion that "Too
much attention has been given" on
that day, L" TO the temporal mercies
we have received" whereas " the
only real basis for thanksgiving is
III Gods mercy to us as sinners -
in the fact that if We had our de-
serts we should now be suffering the
pains of eternal torment in hell
yet " he spares Us and offers US par
don and eternal life through Jesus
Christ" As an illustration of the
supreme folly and ingratitude Of
those who, while grateful for other
things. ignore the chief cause for
thaDkfulness the Occided supposes
the case OF criminal justly con-
demned to die, but is pardoned at
the very foot Of the gallows by the
Governor, who takes him in his
carriage to his home, and gives him
a dinner and suit of clothes; then
tells him 10 go and be better man.
The culprit is profuse in thanks.
He says: oh, Governor, how kind
you are to give me ride in your
carriage and l can never be CRATE
full enough to you for this good dim
ner and these nice Clothes And
thus he runs on and never q word
about the great mercy of the Gov
ernor in spariDg his life. Would
not q man who acted so deserve to
be sent back to the gallows." And
this, the editor of the Occident
thinks, will be the certain fate of
those who do not recognize and ara
not grateful for Gods mercy in keep
ing them out of hell. They will
be sent there at last for their lack of
proper appreciation.

An EXTENSIVE LOGGING ENTERPRISE.
-Messrs. John McReavy Il Co., of
Union City, are making preparations
for logging on much more extended
scale than usual next season. They
are building a railroad from the
head of Hoods Canal into the CEN
ter of an exceedingly fine tract of
timber land owned by them. The
main track, which will consist OF
timbers nine inches square, will be
about eight miles in length, from
which will radiate branches in all
directions. The motive power will
be locomotive, which is now being
constructed by Mr.. Williamson of
Seattle. The company expect to
put in the water an average of SO, =
600 feet per day, soon as the new
railway is completed.

SquaslleS.

4 gentleman who has had consid.
cradle experience in the cultivation
of nearly all kinds of squashes, gives
us the results of his observation.
He writes: The Hubbard is the best
Winter variety for us to cultivate III
Ills cli,4ate. | say Winter variety
advisedly, as tins I'D should never
be used until the middle Of Noyem-
Der; flom that time on it is delicious
i'll any form you can cook it-baked,
boiled, or in pies. Plant in May, III
very rich soil, and let the squashes
remain on the vines as long us pos
SIDE, Govern them during the ear
ly fro>ts. When housed for the
Winter, keep them in warm or
dry loom Of as even temperature as
possible, and they will remain sound
and good until March, retaining all
their fine qualities till the last.
The Hubbard is called by some
the Black Squash" on account of
its dark color, being a very dark
green, with light tint in the ribs
and very hard shell. This squash
has been known for Is years or more,
and has been shown constantly at
fairs AMI exhibitions, and yet other
kinds continue to glut the market,
meet with slow sale and give but
poor satisfaction to consumers. If
you cannot get desirable seed from
some neighbor, you can always find
them at seed stores and generally
very nearly pure.
For Summer squash, the Yellow
Crookneck is, with me, very much
the best. Plant late in May, and the
better your fertiliz rs, the better will
be the quantity and quality. Rich,
mellow, moist" must be your motto
when you cultivate the squash fami-
ly. especially SO with Summer varie-
ties. Five or six hills will be enough
and they will continue bearing till
the frosts come. The quality of this
kind is its chief recommendation.
1t is in season at times when good
vegetables are hard to obtain and
generally very poor when you do
get them.
