its solemn judgment so declared, but here

not much grain is raised only small

the hay harvest is about over for. this
season. They SOW wheat and barley
for their hay. Wheat is being har-
vested here at present, and it is all
cut with a header. Hay is bringing
from 81 to Sl2 per ton; wheat is worth
two cents per h., or S1.2O q bushel.
Everything sells by the pound here.
Most of the people devote their atten-
/, ton to fruit growing, as the ground is
too rough to farm. They grow orang-
es, lemons, figs, apricots, raisins,
olives, pears, peaches, and other small
fruit, but there are not many apples
raised here as they do not do well.
1t is hot and dry here now, and will
be until winter, when the rains come
again. 1t is so dry here in the summer
season that the pastures all dry up,
and people have to feed their stock.
I am only 12 miles from the coast and
