the prospects ahead of the agriculturist
and horticulturist are not unpleas SAINT
to contemplate. The dizziness in the hay
market has been lessened by the re-
ceipt of large number of cars and as
the railroad has promised TO give the
Yakima shippers all they want from
now on conditions are vastly improved
in the hay market.
Onions have climbed steadily up, the
price being almost doubled in the last
two weeks. There are not great many
in the county; Mr.. Ferguson has few
tons-perhaps enough for couple of
ears-near Alfalfa, and he is expect
ing to realize at least $40 a ton for
them. Potatoes are not in as much de-
mand as they We're few weeks ago,
but the price still keeps up to $3.50
to $l4 for Burbanks of good size.
There is little change in the apple
market about the only thing noticeable
being the increased demand for Spitz-
enburgs for the best markets. Good
apples of this variety sell very readily

in the market, and it is said some
sales of entire crops are in contempla.

Since last Wednesday the Yakima Pro-

waiting for the opportunity to ship
considerable more before they will buy

And such was the end of the great
Simiacine ScLeme--the wonder OF few
seasons Some day when the Great sab
ara Ia turned into an inland sea. When
steamers shall ply where sand now files
before the desert wind, the Plateau may
be found again. Some day, when Africa
IS cut from east to west by a railway
line, some adventurous soul Will scale
the height OF one of many mountains,
one that SENS no different from the rest
and yet is held in awe by the phantom-
haunted denizens of the gloomy forest,
and there he will find a pyramid OF wood

scattered bones where vllltures have fed.

| will grow scarcer day by day, and the
human race will be poorer by the loss
of one OF those half-matured discoveries
| which have more than once In the World S
| history been on the point Of raising the
] animal called man to higher, stronger
| finer development OF brain ana muscle
than we can conceive Of under exist

haps the strange, solitary bush may he

| continent acros the ocean. The ways OF
Nature are past comprehension, and no
man can say who sows the seed that
crops up In strange places, The wind
bloweth where It isteth and none can
tell what germs II bears. II seems hardly
credible that the Plateau, no bigger than
cricket field far away IN the waste
land of Central Africa, can be the only
spot on this planet whore the magic leaf
grows in sufficient profusion TO supply
suffering humanity with an alleviating
drug, unryalled--a strengthening herb,
unapproached in power But as yet no
other Simiacine has been found and the
