EXCELLENT CROPS
The Supposed Bad season Turning Out
Very Well.

Inc supposed Bad season turning Gut
Very Well.
Director Barwick of the California
Weather Service, in his crop report for
he week ending July 30th, summarizes
as follows:
The average weekly temperature was: !:
For San Francisco $50, Red Bluff and
Fresno S00, Sacramento 730. Los Angeles
6SS and San Diego 66o. Heat deficiencies
were shown as follows: San Francisco
and Red Bluff %, Sacramento i, Fresno
and San Diego 80 and Los Angeles 81.
This deficiency in the interior valleys
Kept fruit from ripening beyond the
power OF the orchardIsts TO manage 1t,
thereby enabling them To pick, pack and
deliver for shipment their products as
fast as they were in a proper condition
for handling.
Reports agree from all parts of the State
that the fruit crop generally will be a
large one in yield, while the quality and
quantity are both satisfactory.
The prune is the only fruit that will be
less than an average per acre, although
the output will be as great as last year,
on account OF so many new orchards
coming into bearing for the first time this
season.
Grain is turning out fairly we'll in the
greater portion of the State, the output
ranging from poor five sacks per acre. to
good eighteen sacks per acre. and weigh
ing from 148 to 153 pounds to the sack.
The hop crop lids fair TO be most ex-
cellent one, one of the best quality.
Grapes are making their appearance in
market. The yield of all kinds-raisin,
wine and table-gives promise of a very
good crop of excellent quality,
The highest and lowest temperatures
were ll6o at Huron, Fresno County, and
IL at Santa Clara, Santa Clara County.

THE CIVIL WAR.
Increasing Demand for the Serial-The
First Twelve Ready.

Increasing Demand for the Serial-The
First Twelve Ready.
A few weeks ago the RECoRD-UNIoN
made arrangements with the publishers
of "Harper's Pictorial History of the
Civil War;" whereby its subscribers
might purchase each part of the series of
twenty-six numbers at eight cents per
part. Many hundreds of the numbers
have been purchased by subscribers, and
the remarkably low price at which the
publication is sold has become matter
of general comment.
The history is an excellent one, very
accurate, and written by the foremost his
torians of late years. 1t is very freely
illustrated, and detailed story of the war
is told in most interesting style. The
RECoRD-UNIoN might have sold these
parts at figure considerably in advance
of eight cents and thereby reaped rich
profit on the sales, but it entered into
the matter solely for the benefit of its
subscribers, and is offering each part at
exact cost-eight cents.
The first twelve of these parts have ar
rived and can be seen or purchased at
the Office.

TRBAsoNABLE TEACHINGS.

From the Evening Bee, July 30th.l
How comes it that even our school children
are found to be defining freedom as the right
10 do as they please and without restraint; to
set the command OF a union or other private
organization above the laws and the Consti-
Lion?-RECORD-UNION.
That question is dedicated to the calm,
careful consideration of the Board of
Education of Sacramento, and to a
thorough investigation by that body.
There are many rumors abroad of the
installation into juvenile minds of
reasonable principles-or, rather, lack
of principle-by those whose primary
duty it should be to inculcate patriotism,
and to preach love of country and obedi-
ence to its laws. Disloyalty in teacher
should be the signal for his or her i'm
mediate dismissal from the public
schools, no matter how competent the
individual may be as an instructor. We
cannot afford to have our common
schools honeycombed with treason.

He was made Recorder of Deeds in Wash

She graduated from the Chicago High
