with better paying work to pick
them for the market. A mum Der
of La Jara people who have taken
the trouble to drive over there and
pick them, have returned with
large bucketfuls. Smudge pots
and orchard heaters are unknown

fruit growers were smudging at a
cost of $3.50 per acre, Sanford
farmers were hustling to get in
their grain and the fruit crop was

Foxtail is said to be the ailment
from which a number of cows have
died recently. The trouble is near
the roots of the tongue and will
appear as IA bunch generally show
ing on the outside but sometimes
only on the inside. The foxtail
can be disloged with a swab if not
too far advanced. In some cases
a knife should be used the ulcer
lanced. If left alone the roots of
the tongue VIII be severed and
the COW is past help.

Our old friend w. S. Parrish
will soon occupy the new, four
story, concrete mill at San Luis
The new mill is located across the
road from the old one. Mr.. Par
rish, the present proprietor of the
San Luis Roller Mills, has been in
charge of the same for twenty
years, and his knowledge of the
productiveness of the San Luis
valley lands, makes him booster
and one that is ready at all times
to do more than his part in the
development of the country.

The fruit crop at Sanford this
year is a wonder. A few months
ago when the Denver News-Times
were busy slaming the San Luis
valley, fruit was their favorite
topic, and certain peach said to
have grown in the valley, their
standard joke. Dressed up in DIFF
ferent shapes it was dished up to
the public day after day. 1t is not
very likely that there are many
peach trees in the valley at least
there are none around here. At
Sanford, however, are quite a
number of apple trees and they
are all heavily laden with fruit.
Among the varieties are the well
known Ben Davis and a yellow
apple called here the Transparent
as well as a great variety of Crabs.
Mr. Mortensen estimates his trees
will pick about 30 boxes, T. A.
Crowther will have about 30 boxes.
and large number of others will
pick lesser amounts. Gooseberries
and currants have been a drug on

The weather for September as pre-
dicted by Peter r. Smith is as follows:
The disturbing elements denote Sep
TENDER very fair month in central parts
and also including Eastern and Southern
sections should not Gulf storms arise.
Early frnsts are liFely to show up in
northern parts. The rainfall for the
month will be below the average in most
sections. September viii likely have
one heated period lasting for several
days.
Thundershowers win appear in Wes-
tern parts on or about the I'd or Sd, and
these conditions will continue through
the 4th and 18th as the showers pass
on eastward. This disturbance will
touch most parts of the country in rain,

cooler weather will follow the distur-
bance for few days.
The 10th will be the center of wave
of disturbance, which will be on transit
in the several sections of the country to
the 18th. The period from the 9th to
the 18th will be very warm and storms
Of rain and wind viii touch most parts
of the country. The magnetic center
of equilibrium falls south of the equa-
tor on the 2lst of the month, which mott
fies the approach of autumn.
A renewal of storm conditions will
become manifest on the 18th, 10Th, and
18th, which will likely bring refreshing
showers to most sections of the country.

weather will follow and frost in north
ern parts of the country will show up
about the 18th or 18th.
On the 2lst storm wave will be on

of the country, mostly to northern sec
tions.
The 26th, 9th, and 28th will be days
on which storms OF wind and rain will
prevail at many places, and it also de
notes much intensity of the wave which
will be prolonged into October.

Cackiing Hens and Growing ROSTERS

The Commissioners of the District Of
Columbia have full charge of municipal
affairs in Washington. Citizens there
are not called upon to vote, that being
thing Of the past. Complaints Of
growing ROSTERS at daybreak, however,
have been 50 numerous, that novel
plan was initiated to ascertain just
what to do. Some one suggested that
officers go from door to door and ascer-
tain the sentiments Of the occupants.
Some had given it no thought, while
others felt that a growing rooster at
early dawn was quite on a par with a
barking dog. The noisy rooster must
60, and the Commissioners will issue
the necessary edict at once.

BLOOM UPON THE BUrKWHEAT

Bloom is on the buckwheat where the
glades Of Garrett lie,
The hills Of Allegany, whose green
ridges touch the sky;
The white bloom of the buckwheat;
Oh my heart, how sweet it glows
A drift Of dreamy beauty and dream
Of drifted SHOWS;
The ripe oats just beside it, and in
orchards sweet with tune,
The bumble-bees and clover and the
honey-hjves Of June;
The bloom, the bloom is blowing.
In the buckwheat fields on high.
Where the hills Of Allegany
And the glades Of Garrett lie!
A rough road up the mountain, with a
smooth stretch here and there;
A peak of rain-ribbed granite, like a
phantom in the air;
A mine-mouth down by Eckhart and
the Knobley hills asleep
While down the dream-deep valleys
Ike toy Of huge trains creep;
Potomac like dewdrop, and the
green Mills fresh as dew,
With beauty bending Ger them from
the blue SKY bowl Of blue;
The buckwheat bloom in glory,
In modest glory shine,
In the green glades Of old Garrett
Ger the Allegany mines'
The oats are ripe for harvest and
with song the reaper fills
The ridges of Big Savage and the
groves Of Piney Hills;
Through glen and burn it echoes, and
the Narrows grandly glow
Where trolley cars and engines of the
huge trains crawl below;
A spiritual voice Of summer and the
breath Of her so sweet,
Where man has carved the mountain
side and climbed it street by street;
The bloom. the white bloom yonder.
The buckwheat bloom of snow.
Where swarms Of gold bees wander
And dim wales dream below!
Bloom is on the buckwheat in the buck
wheat lands whose crest
Cleans whore the glades Of Garrett
role along the rims of rest.
Where dreams old Allegany in her wales

Officers and Crew of Cruiser

Duty at Honolulu
Collector of Port Is Angered by
Treatment Given Him
Aboard Ship
TSpeeial Dispatch TO The Call

HONOLULU, Aug. 10.-A big row de-
veloped today between Collector of the
Port Stackable and the officers of the
scout cruiser st. Louis over the alleged
smuggling of Samoan tapa cloth by
the navy people. 1t is charged that a
lot of tapa cloth has been brought in
by the ST. Louis without paying duty
and that the offenders include both Of
ficers and men. Stackable has laid in
formation before United States Attor-
ney Breckons and warrants are eX-
pected tomorrow that will put the ward
rom and jackies' mess in the same
category.
After receiving evidence of the
smuggling Stackable went aboard the
st. Louis to complain to Commander
Gleaves. The governor was making an
official call at the time and the col
lector was forced to cool his heels and
curb his impatience while the usual en-
tertainment was afforded the visitors
representing the civil establishment
Stackable's temper suffered through
the delay and his anger at the slight
attention shown him was loudly voiced
scene followed, during which Stack
able threatened to cause the arrest of
the entire crew. He left the st. Louis
in high dudgeon and went at once to
Breckons' office.
The feeling on both sides is very bit
ter and tomorrow's developments are
awaited with much interest.

JAPANESE SEEK WORK ON
HAWAIIAN PLANTATIONS
Strikers Who Led Agitation
Rejected by Planters

HONOLULU, Aug. 10.-That the pro-
longed strike of Japanese plantation
laborers is thing of the past is shown
by the fact that practically all the
strikers are now seeking re-employ-
ment The soup kitchen at the labor
camp here which was maintained for
three months by the Higher Wage as
sociation has been closed and the as
ISOLATION dissolved. A new organiza-
ton, on similar lines, is being formed
under the name of the Labor associa-
ton.
The plantations are still employing
strike breakers to the number of about
1000 and are refusing to take back
strikers who acted as leaders in the
agitation which caused the strike.
Sometaro Sheba, editor of the Shinpo
who was stabbed recently, in an inter-
view today said that he considered the
leaders of the Higher Wage associ-
alton, and not Mort, who welded the
weapon, responsible for the assault.
The trial of the Japanese strike con-
spiracy cases was resumed today with
II jurors in the box, the twelfth Juror
being incapacitated by overindulgence'
in alcoholic stimulants. Counsel con-
sented to proceed without him. This is
the second time he has delayed court
in this manner.
