Harrison's Ranch.

Hon Harrison Allen left for Hillsborc
Monday evening to prevail upon Judge
Mcbride to excuse him from attendance
on court as he has a big vegetable farm
near Cannon Beach which requires his
immediate attention. Allen AYERS he
knows almost as much about farming
as a cat. does about theology and he is
careful student of Luther Burbank's
philosophy.
Last spring he went down to the ranch
taking some radishes he purchased from
a Chinaman and a nny-sack of gar
den seeds sent him by Senator Fulton
from Washington, under the franking
privilege. In order to have early rad.
ishes he planted those purchased from
the Chinaman, tops down, and sewed
about an acre in various kinds of seeds,
mostly radishes.
J. W. Griffin was at the Allen ranch
last week and reports that the China
radishes have started for China, while
the seeds planted have grown radishes
fully six feet above ground. He did not
know how much underneath.
Allen also planted what Fulton rep.
resented to be Hubbard squash, but
which Griffin says are gourds, similar
to Jonah's celebrated gourd. Mr. Allen
purchased Burbank's book on gardening
but thinks he must have got mixed up
with Hoyle, or his dates mixed, eonse-
1uently he is very anxious to 90 to the
farm and superintend the harvesting Of
his vegetables in order to get them on
he market as soon as practicable.

Let Us Be Humane.

We of the Pacific Coast and especially
of Astoria should be thankful for the
splendid, climate with which We are
blessed. While the people of the East
pie suffering prostINtions, aye, and
death from ord,breaking tempera.
ture, We are living in comfort. While
Portland has experienced some very
hot weather of late. Astoria's temper
ature has not vet risen to point where
it was uncomfortable. But the little
warmth that Portland has endured is
nothing to the awful heat in which the
large cities of the East are sweltering.
The forecast from the weather bureau
at Washington says that no relief will
materisfize for some little time. M
ready the total of deaths from the
heat in the East has passed the hun
dred mark; the prostrations will soon
number half a thousand. To escape the
merciless rays of the sun the people of
New York are sleeping upon roofs. in
public parks and even on the pave
ments The police officials are doing
everything in their power to alleviate
the suffering of the people but their
efforts are apparently futile. The am
balances continue to answer calls, the
hospitals and morgues are filled with
those who have succumbed And to
make matters worse the city of Brook
lyn is Threatened with water fa
mine-In New York the ice-wagon dri-
yers threaten to go on strike. With
out water and without ice, the only
relief that may be obtained from the
oppressive heat, what will these suff-
ering people do? Truly we are for
tunate lot on this Pacific Coast. We
experience none of these death dealing
climatic vagaties here. We are GER
tainly in Gods country, if such exist. |
But is it fitting that our mild tempera-
ture should be faunted in the faces of
the sufferers as though in mockery!
Better would it be if messages con-
veying sympathy were dispatched to
the cities that are fast losing their
citizens. Because people now succumb |
to this appalling heat does not necessa-
rily mean that their ends differ from
those who die in some horrible catas-
trophe. Death comes in various ways
it is always sorrowful. We are
quick to convey our sympathy to a |
community that suffers a loss through
fire, through an explosion or some 9TH
er calamity. These differ from the
precent calamity in the East only in
degree. not in kind. Let us be humane:
We should not shout over our good
fortune. forgetting that fellow beings
are suffering dolorously in some of our
sister commonwealths.
