Weather Crop Bulletin to April 20.

Last week was one of glorious
weather in Western Washington, with
sunshine almost every day, and, in
the words OF one correspondent, at
made the farmer smile" The state
ment in the last bulletin that with
several days OF sunny weather like the
present all crops will grow rapidly,
and the farmers become more hope
ful' proved to be tue prophecy.
Not previously this season, and seldom
in any season, has there been week
when all vegetation has made such
splendid progress No rain fell during
the entire week, but there was no
need OF 1t. The dry weather gave op-
portunlty to plant the bottom lands
much earlier than has been done here
tolore. The cool nights, with quite a
sharp frost on the 10Th, threatened
fruits, but 1T is believed that they
were not damaged, except in very few
localities and are now probably safe.
In "A few places early potatoes were
slightly nipped The condition of all
kinds of crops could hardly be more
promising than it is now. Glover
timothy, wheat, potatoes, garden
vegetables, and fruits of all kiuds, are
reported to tie doing finely. Oats ale
especially thrifty. Pastures are in
splendid condition, and the stock is
l'e;'l,hv. Hops are ali the way iron,
l. to 80 inches high, and some are
beng trained. Strawberry plants are
far IN advance o; last week. Timothy
and red clover have grown very fasl
The planting Of potatoes and gard
seeds was rushed lasi week, and
well along. Ia Niiatcom col,ntY =
y reported as beginning to spa.
The tent caterpillar has begun lis ii
vastation. In Ska9it county The cat.
on marsh land are much better thu
ever before at this time OF the wear
The good result of understanding i,
already apparent. In King county
the green aphis has appeared on young
apples trees in one locality. Bees are
swarming some, although it is very
early for them. Taking all things
into consideration, it is hard to imap-
inc how week could have been more
favorable than last week was.

IT IS A FACT

That proyerty is no crime.
 That nonc of us are perfect.
 That the rainfall follows the blow. That a boys best friend is his mother.
 That we are not proud if we are rich.
 That tree is judged by the fruit it bears.
 That soft answer turneth away wrath.
 That law and gospel are both good things.
 That riches do not make a man a gentleman.
 That you cannot see yourself as others see you.
 That genuine aristocrats are never "stuck up"
 That there are more short graves than long ones.
 That prosperity is often harder to bear than diversity.
 That if you would raise good corn you must blow deep.
 That God sends the rain on thejHst as well as the unjust.
 That fool can often see things that smart man will overlook.
 That you can lead horse to water but you can't make him drink.
 That you cannot take a dollar with you when you leave this world.
 That some people know as little about the golden rule as swine do.
 That people who attend to their own business have their hands full. That when persimmons and pos sons get ripe there be no sorrow ill the darkey's camp.
 That less than one-third of the peo- pie in the world made every thing that is eat and worn by all.
 That if you wear the same face all the week that you wear on Sunday you will have but few enemies.
 That there are homes in Arkansas for thousand of industrious people, and that hearty welcome awaits them -EX

BELIEVES HE WAS TOUCHED
Mr,sarasson Loses Forty Dollars in a Mys
 terious Manner.

This morning B. NJ. Sarasson was preparing to go to the bank to make a deposit. He had 8 sack of silver, $40 in greenbacks and his bank book in his hand and was about to leave the store when George Fitzgerald en- tered and asked to see some shirts. Being acquainted with Fitzgerald, Sarasson stopped to wait on him. He set the silver in the safe and laid the bank book down; the $40 in greenbacks he placed in his vest pocket.
 He showed Fitzgerald the goods he wished to see and the two men were sitting on stools near each other when q collector entered and engaged Mr. Sarasson's s attention. He turned half way around on his stool to sign receipt, leaving the pocket contain ing the $40 next to Fitzgerald. The collector left the store and he was followed by Fitzgerald who said that he would call again if he decided to purchase the goods. After de parture Sarasson picked up the sack of silver and bank book and felt for his $40, but it had disappeared. He searched the store for it, but could not find the money. He at once fol lowed Fitzgerald and had him ar rested on the charge of theft. Fitz- gerald was searched but the money was not found on his person, and he denies having stolen it. A warrant of arrest for him was issued and he was placed under $500 bond to await trial. Sarasson says that after placing the money in his pocket he did not leave the building and that the collector and Fitzgerald were the only two men who were in the building at the time the money disappeared.
 Since writing the above Fitzgerald has been discharged, the proof pro- duced not being sufficient to hold him on the charge of theft.

WHY IS TT THUS? THE BLESSING NO LONGER IN VOGUE AS IN FORMER DAYS. A Pracrice that Obtains More in the South Than Elsewhere. but saying
 Grace" Is a Rare
 Thing.

It is rather q pity that the good, old-fashioned custom of Say ing grace" is going out Of vogue says the Philadelphia Times. In even strictly religious families the soup is served and began without an inclin- ation of the head. The practice ob- tains morein the South than else where, but down there life is not lived in such a whirl. Once in a while in some old family where the father sits at the head of the family and guests bow their heads and the short blessing is asked. But those very daughters and sons have gone into the world. married and settled under their own rooftree, and the old custom is never commenced there. It is a great and lasting pity. Ameri- cans are eeonomiziug for time in every way and all the old-time cour- tesies are going one by one. In a country where man has ten minutes for his dinner-fOr six o clock dinners are in the minOrity-what wonder that courtesy and digestion go by the board? If they relinquish the custom of grace before meals, they should adopt the German prac- tice ef blessing after meals. They put it in two terrible German words and murmur it to their neighbors as they rise from the table. 1t is Q de- lightful courtesy, and as an American girl said to Captain Von Gossel of the ill-fated Elbe, 'I believe that's why you Germans have such superb digestive organs, your constant in- vocation to the angel of digestion through centuries has brought it about"
 Some of Dickens most touching and effective word pictures were those family gatherings where for 8 moment song and mirth were hushed and the revered head of the household quietly invoked blessing on the re- DdEL. W lAO uOc5 uOU lHG wedding feast at the Wardle home, when even genial Mir. Pickwick brushed away n tear, and Dickens voiced his feelings in that memorable passage: "There are dark spots on earth but it's light shines brighter in the contrast" And through q mist of happy memories rises the home of the Cheerybile brothers, those typical examples, who in the midst of their prosperity always remembered at meal time the "giver of all good:" 'tFor these and all other blessings; brother Charles" said Ned, Lord make us truly grateful, brother Ned, 2 said Charles.
 This is, indeed, rushing age, and olden customs and traditions are passing away in the mad haste for the accumulation of wealth, and again, many in the search for scien-
