THE WET RAIN.
There Are Several Varieties, and All
Have Their Whims.


Rain is principally composed OF
water. but II should not be confused
with mining stock.
Rain always comes on Sunday after.
Moons and wash days.
Wash day may be changed to any day
in the week, Systematically or indis-
criminately. but the rain will come
Sunday afternoon. however, cannot
be changed 10 any other afternoon.
The rain will hold off until you are
ready 10 go driving. and then the word
will be passed along the mysterious
currents of the air, and double order
of cirrus and cumulus will he hurried
in from the west.
Also IN the morning. when you leave
home and carry your umbrella and
raincoat, the rain will go away sad
sulk. But II you take heart Of the
fair sky and leave the umbrella and
other trimmings then the rain will
wait until you leave the office and then
get you. Incidentally II will tuck a
few grip and rheumatism germs into
your system.
Rain is good for the crops. but why
II takes you for crop is hard to un-
derstand.
Rain never brought fame to any one
except Noah. Probably on the day the
food began he watched the last picnic
party drive out OF town in a bus, shout
ing sarcastic things at him through the
dust.
There are several varieties of rain.

SEVEN MILLION
TREES PLANTED
By the Washington Nursery
Company of Toppenish for
Its Next Selling Season.

Nearly seven million trees have
been planted or are being planted by
the Washington Nursery company of
Toppenish for its selling season Of
1910. For gratis, seeds and seedlings,
ornamental trees, ETC., for its imme-
date future the company requires
500 acres of land. There does not
exist in this valley or state. and in
fact nowhere in the entire north
west any such plant as this. As mat
ter of fact the probability is that the
Washington Nursery company. with
the exception of the long established
Stark Bros, of Louisiana. is thu
heaviest handler of apple stock in tho
United States This must be a mat
ter of great pride to people of THU
county and as further subject for
appreciation may be mentioned the
fact that there exist other large nur-
series in this. valley so that. in the
aggregate, the nursery business of

of any portion of the United States.

NEW YORK, March 4.-Enrico
Caruso the tenor singer, has received
two Blackhand letters demanding
$4,000 or his life. There is some
disposition among his friend to re-
gard the letters as jokes, but Caruso
is convinced his days are numbered

rooms without body guard The
first letter instructed Caruso TO put
the money in his pocket stroll along
Broadway and give it to the first man
who asked him for a letter.
Caruso took the walk, with two de-
tectives behind him. Evidently the
writer followed his movements, for
today a second letter came telling
him about his having two detectives
