All Abont Hops.

The middle of next week the
hop crop will be in under cover
aud the hop farmers are wearing
eontentedland happy smile, why
not? The crop is in frst-class
condition, SO far picked, and the
danger of any great loss by mould
has passed. The prospect for
good prices, for the crop, was
never better, and he certaiuly
feels prosperous.
This year while the same
wages as last are paid the pickers,
no increase being paid here as re-
ported from other sections.
This has caused some grumb-
ling among the piekers and
ore hour delay in the Lilly yard

In this yard 10 piokers are
employed and they concluded to
find out if Chin Yuck, Hop Lou,
Sing Fat and the rest of the

paid per box. A consultation
was held and a committee went
to find Chin Yuck and say more

came from the lady member, a
disclosure was made, they had
found Chin Yuck in a temporary
Joss House, used by him during
the season to keep away rain an d
cloudy weather, with large
bowl of chop-suey covered with
finest offspring chicken, Chin on
his knees, offering up the prayer

The time was opportune, Chin

was not in a mood to confer with
Mclean people and they were

WASHINGTON. Feb. 4.-The rural
free delivery system is spreading in
the United States at the rate of over
10000 new routes a year. Each route
Is about rs miles in length and
serves at least 100 families. At this
rate the postoffice department figures
that by July /. 1908, all available
territory will be covered by rural
free delivery.
The amount of additional mail
matter which this will put into the
hands of the people of the United
States is almost beyond comprehen-
sion. But the records show that a
single year of rural delivery In
creases the amount an average of
from 40 to rs per cent. The old
fourth class" postoffices will soon
be wiped out. Each route takes the
place of an office; So by 1905. about
35, 900 to 10000 offices will have been
replaced.

this year provides for 10000 addi-
