Nothing new is to be said in regard
to the crop prospect. 1t seems to be
a generally accepted fact that the
yield OF grain in Pemhina county this
year will be about half an average
crop. That there is promise of that
much proves the remarkable fertility
of our soil, which. after nearly a years
drought. can produce a crop of ten
bushels to the acre, which the present
growth seems to promise.

TALES OF FINNISH TARs.
Gulleness OF a Race Not Acquainted
with Mercantile Trickery.

Gulleness OF Race Not Acquainted
With Mercantile Trickery.
DARIEN, GA, Feb. 2.-Among the sea-
farlng classes the Finn seems to be the
least susceptible of conversion to the
manners and habits of strangers. He re-
tains the primitive habits of his country
the guileless ways of a people on whom
no rapid commercial advancement has
conferred a consequent degree of sharp
ness.
On the western shores of the Baltic
many amusing tales are told based on the
guilelessness of the Finnish mariner, such
as losing something Over5Oard while the
vessel is sailing and making a notch in
the railing so as to know the exact place
where it was lost, and so forth. These
tales are generally so spiced with exag-
geratiOn as to put ghost stories in the
shade, and the young folks especially en-
JOY them Immensely.
In Finland it is not an unusual thing to
see ship owner with axe on shoulder 90
out in the woods 20 help cut the material
for a vessel he is building, or to see him
drive a team or do anything which his
hired laborers have to do. When the craft
is ready be sends her of to plough the
main, while he puzzles his head trying to
make out the different items in the ex-
from the various ports.
While touching on this subject a Fin
nish Captain sometime ago told that he
usually bought from 20 to % dozen OF
Bass pale ale when setting out on a voy-
age, and these he had regularly charged
on the bill of expenses sent home.
The owner. finding il big item and not
knowing what kind Ofan article Bass pale
ale was, wrote to the Captain for infor-
n ha rar1fad - Ii Il
of grease necessary TO apply to the yes
sells bottom to make her sail fast. The
owner again wrote the Captain to discon-
tInue the use of such expensive grease
Next trip the Captain acted upon these
instructions, but happened TO make long
voyage. This convinced the owner that
the grease was very important factor IN
the vessels progress, and the letter of in
structions received by the Captain for the
succeeding trip commenced, Buy plenty
of Bass pale ale"
The writer was present when a Finnish
Captains voice upbraided his new cook
for bringing in for supper lot of very
hard boiled eggs. The cook looked like a
martyr when he answered: 81 can't
help it, Captain, You spoke to me about
wanting soft boiled eggs this morning
and put these to boiling over two hours
ago, and yet couldn't make them get
anV softer"
Two Finnish Captains went on a spree
one night and one of them growing ex-
travagant insisted on having a bottle Of
champagne. The other feeling rather
averse to such waste did not favor the
idea but finally consented TO partake of it.
