John F. Moore, who has given as
much study to the matter OF fruit
production and fruit marketing as
any other man in this section, does
not hold out hopes for a fancy price
for our Elberta peach crop. and ne
bases his judgment on the fact that
Utah will ship something like 1,2e0
cars this year and the growers or
that state are not in the habit OF
sticking for high prices but quote
their product at a lower figure than
the prevailing price when their crop
is ready, which is about one week
after that of the Grand Valley.
In the past it has been the custom
Of the shippers in that state to quote
out peaches for future delivery of a
week ahead which habit has the ef-
feet of keeping back orders until
their crop is ready. In other words
If we are getting 65c they quote for
the next week a price of soc. This
being the case we have a matter OF
2.500 cars from the two states ready
for market practically at the same
time. 1t seems to the man on the
outside that here would be the proper
work for selling agency. 1t ought
to be possible to get the shippers to-
gether from both sections and hold
for the best possible prices and only
ship to such markets as will pay the
price without flooding any single
market. They ought to be as ready
to get better money as We in this
valley.

SU ULTIMA CARTA

De mi mente su imagen no Sc aparta
Y mucho al recordarla me conmuevo;
81 es muy yieja la historic de esta carta
mi amor, mi eterno amor, es siempre nuevo-
81, me voy a casar: es necesario;
soy ave y Quiero rem0ntar ell Vuelo;
no puedes reprochar al incensario
que alec neblina de perfume al cielo.
jSoy cuIpable? mo Sc! Pero ique,,quieres!
endurecen ell pecho los dolores;
10 que sufren a veces las mujeres,
solo 10 sabe ell Dios de sus mayores.
Fui tn bella Illusion de enamorado;
era una ~estatua, Y me amino tn idea,
hoy que del pedestal me has derribado,
no flames a tn pobre Galatea.
Roto por tt ell laid, gu dulce tono
Sc e~xtingui6 por tn ma y por ell MIC;
soy una SEGA flor, y tie perdono,
tr6mula en- una rafaga de frfo.
iVolveran mis- ensuehos del pasado
con este nuevo amor a que me entrego?
Esta mi coraz6n tan desangrado,
que apenas puedo ranimar SUI fuego,
Cuando recuerdo mi passion ~intensa,
exhalo a mi pesar doliente critic:
es Ia fe del amor una ala lnmensa
que aun herida Sc tiende al infinite!
Al casarme, tai vez negros pesares
cambien ell nectar en- mortal veneno,
que Dor buscar las perIas en- los mares
sueIen los buzos sumergirse en- cieno.
De ii bien Sc que ell ~porvenir ta espanta
Y Que wives incredible Y sombrio;
Sc que tienes IN nido en- la garganta
en- los ojos dos gotas de rocfo.
Sc ha convertible tn alma en- IN desierto
en- donde TODD eXpira y Sc derrumba,
Y es Dor desgraCia nuestro amor un muerto
que no ha de Ievantarse de Ia tumba.
Muertas en- flor las i~lusiones todas,
de ii. sol de mi cielo, me despido,
las sombras de la noche de mis- bodas
tie hunden en- los mares del divide.
Quiero que al separate de mi lado
no sepas maldecir nuestros amOres;
como 20 te he Querido demasiado,
no puedo dar cabida a los rencores.
Busca tn redenci6n de esta manera;
soporta mi rigor, Y sufre y Gala,
sucumbe siendo fel a tn bandera,
como muere I'm soldsdo en- la batalla.
No me debes odiar 81 me ~adoraste;
llega a ser de tn armada IN buen amigo:

Why They Go.

Someone has we'll said that the
reason why so many boys and
girls are leaving the farm is be-
cause they are in a large meas
ure ignorant of the possibilities
of the life they are leaving and
the life to which they are going.
1t would apper on reflection that
agricultural education, consider
ed in its border aspects, could
hardly have a more useful or
more worthy object than max
ing very clear to the minds of
boys and girls in rural commun-
titles the real facts as we'll as
possibilities of both city and
country life. Such education
ought to set forth the dignity
and worth of agriculture and its
allied lines, and to make clear
that while there are opportun-
tiles in the city, they are by no
means what they seem to be at
distance and seldom give one an
opportunity to acquire a position
of independence.

The Experiment Station has
been repeatedly called upon to
answer inquiries concerning an
outbreak of contagious opthalmia
which is at present prevalent
over the entire State of Kentuc-
ky. This condition is sometimes
known as pink eye," and at
tacks in rapid succession large

of a new animal which is already

it may be spread to ali the re-

condition is more prevalent III

tally during period of drought
similar to the one experienced
throughout the entire State Chls

Symptoms. The condition Is
usually first noticed by a prOfuse
discharge of tears from both
eyes, which constantly keeps
both sides of the face moist. The
eye-lids are swollen. painful To

Treatment. Affected animsls

less England's naval supremacy
is to be put to a test which may
destroy it before it so much as
comes in contact with the full
of the enemy.
The strategy so far pursued
by Admiral Jellicoe has been to
keep the German men-of-war
bottled up, while English cruis-
ers have swept the sea for Ger
man merchantmen. In the two
encounters that have occurred
the English suffered but little if
any of the worst of it. They
have lost three obsolete cruisers
and some 1000 men from a sub
marine attack, but the Germans
suffered no less heavily when
the squadron under Admiral
Beatty tolied five of their cruis-
ers out to sea to be sunk under
the guns of battleships. On the
whole honors are easy in this re-
