The prune crop this season turn
ed out to be more or less of a fail
ure. The prunes in many of the
nearby orchards were blighted to
the extent of from 20 to 80 percent.
Just at the period when the prunes
were beginning to ripen they began
to get soft and shriveled and dried
until they were not fit for market.
The blight started before the sugar
was in the prunes, consequently
they are unfit for drying unless the
crop is carefully sorted. The pick
ers this week have had to use care
in selecting the good prunes from
the blighted ones and they were
sorted again at the packing house.
The scarcity of help made it impos-
sible to keep pickers in the orchards
in sufficient numbers to justify
packing the fruit.

green but nearly all the beans were
entirely matured and ripe. Reports
are to the effect that bean fields
threshed on Potlatch ridge this
week averaged 81 sacks to the acre,
or approximately 1875 pounds per
acre. While the bean market has
not opened up yet it is thought the

of ten cents.

THIEF
MOVES CITIZEN
TO PITY
STOLEN PROPERTY is
RETURNED LONG AFTE.
In Gratitude, b. P. Greenwood
Publishes Warning to
Erring Sinner.

When B. P. Greenwood found
Q $500 telescope from a transit,
stolen from him in January,
carefully returned and deposite
before his office door fer
mornings ago, he was moved, in
gratitude to ask The Oasis to
publish a warning to the repent
ant thief, to save him from per-
sonal injury.
On January 10 some light
fingered pilferer obtained en-
trance to Mr.. Greenwood's office
in the Wise block, and remove
a six-gun and holster. About
week later the same individual
tried the same place again, and
this time he carried off a $700
telescope from Mr.. Greenwood's
transit, together with some mis-
cellaneous instruments OF
smaller value.
The other morning when MI.
Greenwood came to the place
(from which, by the way, he had
meantime removed,) he found
the valuable telescope instru-
ment on the floor before the
door.
MoTed by the contrition of the
thief and gratcfu Cor the return
of his instrument, MI. Green
wood determined tc reward the
man for his act by thanking him
through the columns of the
press, and at the same time Civ
ing him information that he
hopes may save him from seri-
Gus injury or worse.
Publish" he asked The
Oasis, "that l don't care espe-
cially to get that six-gun back.
It's an old one, and really isn't
very safe. You see, it is defec-
tive and has a habit of going off
accidentally. In fact, it has been
the cause of three deaths that
way. Therefore, I wish you
would warn this accommodating
chap about it, and tell him to be
careful"
