"FoR LOVES SWEET SAKE"

Because you have no golden hoard,
Or broad aud fertile lands 20 show,
Or wealth il glittering caskets stored.
You fear TO wbisper-what know:
You think 'twoGld be . grieyous wrong
Ne from NY smoother paths to take,
Nor understand how brave and strong
Ny heart could be for Loves sweet sake
Because you are q man, you seek
To hide the tender pain you feel
And I, a woman, should not speak
Ore word your secret wound 10 heal:
Yet, knowing well that each for each
LIES fullest harmonies could wake.
fam would place within your reach
TIA: gift Of Love tor Loves sweet sake
Because the ways you tread are rough
Shall we two always stand apart:
Nav, let me own 'twould be enough
To share your veal and woe. dear hearth
II YOU must bear daily cross,
Why, viii half the burden take:
And what goa choose TO call my loss
Count truest gain for Loves sweet sake.

week ending July oath was: For San
Francisco So Eureka 56o, Red Bluff So,
Sacramento 76o, Fresno S49 and Los An
geles ~. There WAS a deficiency of
heat of A at San Francisco, normal at
Eureka and Los Angeles, and an excess
OF heat at Red Bluff of 10, Sacramento q
and Fresno 10, which has had a tendency
to rapidly ripen the fruit, making it a
severe task for those who are drying to
keep up with the pickers.
The grain crop is short, but is yielding
better than was anticipated a month or
SIX weeks ago, all OF which is due to the
abnormally cool weather that has favored
the agricultural districts.
Grapes never gave a better outlook for
an excessively large crop of fine quality
than they do at the present writing.
Hops indicate large yield of most ex-
ceilent quality. A hop-grower in Sonoma
County las contracted for 100 bales at 20
cents per pound.
The fruit crop will aggregate well in
quality, but not in quantity, If the entire
state is taken into consideration.
The average precipitation for the State is
nothing, While this week has given a
trace OF rain in the Sacramento and San
Joaquin Valleys, also i'll the foothills
During the week the most phenomenal
transform occurred in Southern CalifOr-
MA, 10 of an inch having been measured
at Chino, in San Bernardino County, on
Thursday night, the 20th inst. The old
est lnhabitant says there never was such
a rainstorm in July in that vicinity, and
II IS reported that other portions Of the
valley received more than Chino. The
precipitation, however, has done no ma
terial damage, simply retarding the COM
mencement OF the beet harvest.
The Observer at Red Dlutf telegraphs
as follows: "All fruits are in fine condi-
ton, the weather having been nearly per-
feet"
The Observer at Fresno telegraphs
Gather favorable. Grapes are sugar
ing, and the crop prospects are good"
The Observer at Los Angeles tele-
graphs: NV Gather warm, with local
showers on Friday, which were not
heavy enough to do any damage. Thresh-
ing continues, and grain is being shipped
al fair prices.'
The highest temperature throughout
the State ranged from 90 at Yreka, Siski-
you County, to 1lO' at Big Bar Bridge.
Calaveras County, and over 1867 in River
side County. The lowest was 40, at San
Ardo, Monterey County.
