COUNTRY ENTERTAINMENT.

A Pleasant Evening with the Pupils of
Pacific District School.
Pacific District school closed on Friday
last, with very pleasing entertainment.
1t was a credit to teacher ana scholars,
and judging from the large attendance,
and close attention given to the exercises
of the evening, likewise gratifying to
parents and friends. The teacher, Miss
Allie Duden, had, with the assistance of
the young masters and misses under her
charge, decorated the schoolhouse hand
somely with evergreens and flowers,
which were generously contributed by
the patrons of the district. The Ameri-
can flag formed very important part OF
the decorations, and the drawings on the
black boards indicated that some OF the
pupils were quite skilltul in the use of
pencil and crayon. Those who took part
IN the exercises were:

CROP OUTLOOK.
The Continued North Winds Have
Been Very Detrimental.

The Continued North Winds Have
Been Very Detrimental.
From review of the crop bulletins re-
ceived by Director Barwick of the State
Weather Bureau, for the week ending
Yesterday, it appears that the grain crops
are generally suffering from a lack of
rain.
The average temperature during the
week ending April 9th was: For San
Francisco So, Eureka 50o, Red Bluff 640
Sacramento 64o, Fresno 6S0, Los Angeles
5S0. and San Diego 560. AS compared with
the normal temperature there was an eX-
cess of heat at San Francisco OF l degree,
Eureka l, Red Bluff 8, Sacramento 9, and
Fresno s. South of Tehachapi, in South
ern California, there was deficiency OF
heat at Los Angeles of degree and San
Deigo 2.
The excess of heat in the great valleys
of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rap
idly advanced the growth of grain, but
with the constant northerly winds there
has been a bad effect on the cereal crops.
Early sown and summer-falloweQ grain
stands the drought much better tnan lne
late and winter-sown grain.
This dry weather will allow tne tule
land farmers to get in grain or other pro-
duets. that otherwise would be LETT uncul-
tiyated were rain of any great amount 70
be precipitated.
The present prospects and outlook are
certainly bad for the grain yield.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Impro ovement Company has re-.
Gently purchased twelve thousand Scres of
land in the heart of Tehama County for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, so, 120, 160 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual 1nstallments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is to be paid tor three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate of per cent. per annum
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at SO per acre.
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre.
with other grades Of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement win prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land st SO an acre. on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up OF large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
TO diligent husbandry.

ADvICEs from Peru are to the effect
that Caceres has been proclaimed Dicta-
tor. Which means that he has so pro-
claimed himself The wonder is that
Peru has been without revolutionary
movement so long as she has. The truth
is that one-half of these South American
Republics, yes, three-fourths of them,
are not republican. The people have no
conception Of free government as we un-
derstand it. 1t Will take half century
yet to bring them up to the right level.
In the meantime Dictator is perhaps as
good for them as an elected President.

and industry has wholly passed away.
We have no right TO send our poor upon
other communities to be cared for. and
we should refuse by the same reason to
be made the dumping ground for the poor

1t is not wholly question of sympathy

WORTH HAVEN.

Dec. I.-'In Everything Give Thanks. Thess, s. iS.. was the text selected foi Rev. Mr. Lathrop's Thanksgiving dis course and the subject was handled 1T his usual able manner. Sad that SC many of the people think more of stay ins at home to get up good dinner than they do to cheer the heart Of the pastor by a good full congregation to preach 10. if they do not care to get some good or something new to think Of themselves.
 Miss Edith Goodyear is home for Thanksgiving. Miss Jane Thorpe is al- so In town. at the home of her brother, Charles Thorpe. w. s. Todd and family of New Haven were guests Of F. c. Bradley on Thanksgiving day.
 Rev. MT. Lathrop entertained rela- tiyes at nls home A sister. Miss Helen Lathrop. attended the church service.
 The second annual of the o. U. A. M. will be celebrated by appropriate exer- cises in Memorial hall on Monday eve- hing. December 3, at s o'clock. Admis- sIon by card. and only those who pres ent their cards at the door will be ad- mitted.
 M. l.. Palmer of the Baptist church listened to Rev. MT. Lathrop at the Congregational church on Thanksgiving day.
 MT. and Mrs. Bower and MT. and Mrs. c. E. Foote were invited 10 spend Thanksgiving with Mrs. c. N. Turner.
 Miss Lucia Bower spent Thanksgiving with friends in New York state.
 At the recent convention of the State Sunday School Workers at New London, Cullen B. Foote, who has been president of the association for several years, said in response to the welcome by Rev. MT Yates of New London, Sunday school work is the work of supreme importance of the day. He thought there would be more than enough bene- fit derived from the convention to pay New London people for all their trouble in making arrangements for the event. Sunday school work is fight to the death between the powers of good and evil. This work means that the bible shall be given to every child, and every child to Christ" Those from North Ha- ven who attended this convention speak In the highest praise of the whole pro- ceedings. Secretary Halls lecture, H. lustrated by over fifty stereoptican views gave vivid description of the growth of the Sunday school in this state from the earliest days of the so- ciety. Many portraits of good workers were given. The picture of Cullen B. Foote of North Haven, the present president. was the last given and was received with enthusiastic applause. At the election of officers MT. Foote was selected president to continue in office ano &ec two years.

Diseased Hogs.
City papers copy

For year or so past Edwin B. liar ris of Mountainville, has been losing hogs from some kind of disease, and although he apparently paid every pos sible attention to them, they contin- ued to grow sick and die. The disease proved a puzzler for him and he could not account for the contagion. He took some of the meat to Dr. Knox to ascertain, if possible, the cause of the epidemic. After a thorough examina- tion under strong microscope Dr.. Knox pronounced the disease to be what is commonly known as 'hog plague" producing dark spotted flesh termed "measley pork" caused by in- fections and dangerous microbes. As there is no known remedy for the plague the doctor advised MT. Harris to kill all the remaining hogs and thoroughly reno vate and disinfect his yards and pens before stocking up again.-Danbury Dispatch.
