comes on the hop liar hobs up serenely
and will calmly inform you that he or
she as the case may be, can With the
greatest ease pick all the way from three
to five boxes per day, accordingly as the
lying habit has developed and the story
has enlarged with constant telling.
These yarns are all the more preposter-
Gus when it is considered that every body
who knows anything about hop picking
comedies that box Of hops per day is a
fair average, and a box and half big
days work. However, there does occa.
sionally appear picker of extraordinary
ability who can beat this estimate, and
The HERALD is informed of a case in
point. 1t is said that the three Richard
son children, living in the Riverside
school district, who have been picking in
the Hiscock yard. and the eldest OF whom
is but II years of age, have by dint of
getting to work very early and quitting
very late, averaged seven boxes per day.
For children this is certainly phenome-
nal record and the little chaps deserve a
medal.
Years OF success and the testimony of
thousands of ladies', including the high.
est and most noted women of the United
States and England, who have been re-
stored to health after all other methods
of treatment had failed, prove that the
"Viavi' treatment is the only rational
system of treating diseases of women.
Purely vegetable it supplies a clean,
wholesome food to the muscular tissues
and nervous fibres. 1t acts as prompt
specific for all nervous and other troubles
common to women. Mrs. DR.. Bowman,

The Mckee Company is devoting it's
attention largely to stock and Mr.. Lesh
figures that next year but two cuttings OF
alfalfa will be made, and the following
year one cutting. He believes that more
