We have had several days of fine weather the past week, and the farmers have taken advan- tage of same. Que farmers are depressed in spirits because of the low price of peas, there hav- lng been larre quantities raised the past year. More no doubt than has ever been raised and gathered than in any one year in the history of Nevada County. Do not be discouraged, brothers, peas is what we need for our land, and make fine feed for stock. Peas and corn are good for our horses and mules, also our milch cows, so plant them in every vacant spot and they will repay you better than anything you could put your land in. Lets cut the cotton average and raise

MEDAL CONTEST
Miss Frances Thrasher Is Winner
 of Prize Sunday Afternoon

The exercises held at the Presbyterian church on last Sun- day afternoon, when three of Prescott's young people contested for the medal offered by the w. c. T. U. for the best speech on the subject of temperance, was attended by a large number of our people, who thoroughly en- joyed the occasion, each effort being a splended one, and many excellent thoughts on the subject handled were presented.
 Miss Frances Thrasher was awarded the medal by the judges, although each of the others de- serve special mention, and it was doubtless puzzling somewhat to tell which one really was the best. Miss Thrasher used as Her subject, The Everlasting Whis- per" and handled it excllently.
 The first speaker was Gordon White, with the subject of the Price of Victory.'' '' The second was Miss Thrasher, and the last one was Roscoe CresS.

Herbert Wilson, who is a can didate for Railroad Commission er from this District, was born and raised on a farm in Hemp stead county. When he was ten years old he was stricken with infammatory rheumatism and after many months of suffering it became necessary to amputate both his legs, one above and the other just below the knee. When he finally awoke to the realization that he would be a cripple for life, he resolved to overcome the misfortune as much as possible, and he set to work to live and win.

PRESCOTT YEARS AGO
An Interesting Paper Recalls
 Other Days

We have been handed by J.
 M. Cummings a copy of the Prescott Dispatch, published by E. A. Warren, and dated We'd nesday, April 24, 1878. Pres colt, even though quite young ster, was a most thriving little city, as evidenced by the news columns, as we'll as the splendid advertising patronage given the paper. One heartless citizen, to whom we lent the paper, was un-
 kind enough to say that they
 got out a better newspaper then than they do now.
 Cards were carried in the paper for Dr. F. P. Hesterly and Dr. J. D. Jordan; Smoote and
 McRae, and Warren 6 Atkinson,
 were leading law firms, while the general mercantile business of
 the place was done by P. c. Ham, ilton, Moses Winter, c. w. Ter ry, Hatley & Waller, J. B. Mil ner & Co.,, Rudolph X Bro, D. Felsenthal & Co.,, R. l.. Hinton, Belden & Bro, Bright & Pitt man, Bob Stubblefeld. In the drug line were R. L. Powers and w. E. and R. F.. Arnold; w. L. Gaines and Jake Baltensperger were boot and shoe-makers; F. 70. Pledger ran a harness shop and John Price was the tailor. The Prescott Male and Female Institute was in charge of T. C. McArthur, and M. w. Haltom was a watchmaker and jeweler Fred Schinnerer was the gun smith and the hotels were oper- ated by James McCaughey and J. c. Rapp.
 There were doubtless a good many other people in business here at that time but they didn't advertise.
 The market report shows cot ton was worth Sc to Sc; state scrip, 75c; county scrip, 60c; butter, 15c; corn, COG; pork, 4c to 5c; flour, $6.00 to $500; other commodities were about the same price as they are today.
 The announcement columns of the paper reveal the fact that candidates were as numerous in ! those days as now and we notice 1 the following for sheriff, E. K. Lightfoot, w. L. Webb, Jos eph F. White, Alex Brown, and U. A. Pagan; for treasurer, w. L. Bright, Jas. B. McCracken, .Thos. J. Butcher; for assessor. Capt. John Parker, M. E. Ha;- vay, Jas. A. Whiteside, Jas. T.

COLLEGE WOMEN
CLUB MEET
TODAY

The members of the Imperial VAL
ley College Women's Club are expect
ing to have a meeting Of unusual in
terest this afternoon, at the High
school at 2:15. Since it is the first
meeting Of the club year officers will
be elected.
Probably the chief interest of the

of Miss Ethel Moore and DR.. Aurelia
Reinhart, both Of Oakland. Miss Moore
is one of the national officers of the
Association Of Collegiate .Alumnae, of
which the College Club here is a
branch. She will have a message
about the activities of the other
branches. DR.. Reinhart is a former
instructor of the University of Cal
ifornia and the present president of
Mills College. She will speak on a
subject connected with education.
A large attendance is expected. Col
lege women of the entire valley are
invited to attend.
