When Shall This End?

We had come to the conclusion
that with the increased prosper
ity in store for our little COM
munity, also was coming an in
creased understanding of the
truism. Gin union is strength. !"
We had formed the opinion, that
as our people woke up to realize
that concerted and thoroughly
united action was an essential to-
ward accomplishing success,
they would act along those lines.
and let deeds and facts bear wit
ness of their intentions to aid in
every way possible to make our
conditions here at home what
they ought to be. And no doubt,
so they do. We, nor anyone else,
can or dare attempt to contra
dict the evident fact, that the
majority of the citizens are SO
inclined and acting accordingly.
Yet, no matter how strongly the
sentiment Of unity and amity
may be pronounced in a COM
munity there will always be
some disturbing spirits. Some
one, who cannot live and enjoy
tranquility. some one who is new
er contented unless they have a
chance of poking up their nose in
other peoples business. We
presume this will be the condi-
ton of affairs until the end Of
time, everywhere and anywhere.
Hence we are not exempt in Hay
ward, and most likely never will
be. At least we feel constrained
to think so.
x
Is there no regard for the fu-
ture of this town on the part of
those who are everlas tingly stirr-
ing up trouble? Stop for mo-
ment and think! Use some com.
mon sense! Let the "cut-
throat" policy give way to the
universal idea of Give and let
live, allowing for your neighbor
as much liberty as for yourself.
And always remember, that it is
a good plan for each. and every
one to sweep before his own door
before attempting to clean his
neighbours yard. More, anon.

Peaches Grow in Watertown.

1t is not generally known to the
people of this section that peaches can
be grown in our city, but we notice
that William F, Nickels, residing at
50L Seventh street has peach tree
bearing bushel or more of fine large
peaches. The origin of this tree was
that 1t sprung up from peach stone,
which was thrown out in the door
yard. 1t stands on the south side of
his house and is about 20 feet tall, and
is now in its seventh year. This is
the third season it has raised this fruit,
the first two years it only had half
dozen or so, which was only a taste
for MIR. Nickels and his children, but
this season he can preserve several
quarts of the fruit.

Drs. Whyte and Werner and on their
report committed to the Northern
Hospital by Judge Barney. Mr..
Heide is So years of age and has been
in the blacksmith business for many
years, About two years ago his friends
began to notice that he taxed incoher-
emily about inventions on which he
washing. The physicians report says
that the cause of this attack OF insanity
was because his mind was set on per-
fecting patent and that the subject
on which his arrangement is mani
tested is the perfecting of machine
with perpetual motion. His mind never
wanders from that one subject of per-
petual motion. Independent

Weekly Crop Bulletin For the Week End
ing Monday, July 9th, 1903.
Practically no rain occurred during
the past week to interfere with the
progress OF harvesting. Although the
sell is becoming dry in few localities
the moisture supplied by heavy rains
OF the previous week is not yet exhast-
ed and all growing crops made Very
rapid progress. The temperature con-
ditions were generally seasonable and
toward the latter part of the week it
was decidly warm, the midday temper
ature being generally 80 degrees or
above on Saturday.
The weather was very favorable for
corn, although the nights were too
cool for the best results. This crop
has however made very rapid growth;
is in healthy condition.. of good color
but still not up to the average condi-
tion indicates that it will be later than
usual in manuring.
Oats are ripening rapidly and are
generally considered a good crop.
The straw is generally heavy and
there is little complaint of lodging.
Rust appeared few weeks. ago and
will shorten the crops in some locali-
ties. Cutting will begin next week
Barley is nearly all harvested in the
southern portion of the state and
rapidly approaching maturity in the
central and northern counties, the
berry plump and of good color.
Spring wheat and spring rye matur-
inc rapidly and promise goods yields.
Early potatoes are fully matured and
the yield is satisfactory both as to
quantity and quality. Late varieties
are doing we'll.
The heavy rain of the previous week
did some damage to tobacco ON low
grounds, put generally the crop is in
excellent condition and gives promise
of a heavy yield.
The harvesting of tame hay is gen.
orally completed. The crop has been
very heavy one and generally secur-
ed in good condition, although the rain
OF the 17th damaged considerable
amount. Hay secured during the past
week was in excellent condition.
Pastures continue to furnish a good
supply of feed.
Peas are generally reported as deing
we'll, and promising good yield.
Buckwheat mede good progress during
the week. Sugar beets, millet and
gardens are in satisfactory condition.
The apple crop will not be large al
though OF fair quality. Raspberries
are good crops in some localities, in
others poor.

the June frost promise a good yield.
