Not long however dW its oppressive, pres ence remain before the sun's dediftv, the wind sprang up with a strongelixi in the wings and -as usual the eve ning was bracing and cool. One alloy, though came with the temperature's sudden change, Iw rumblings ot thunder were to be heard floating on the breexe bringing with them grave apprehensions for the outstanding shocks of grain and hay, but Monday dawned without the dreaded rain ana the ranchers were early afield with their hay-trucks. so that before eve ning fill only stubble was to be seen in the fields and now. glad will be the sound of splashing rain, once agalu making travel by auto and other pleas ure vehicles one of the summer Joys. The threshers now come to our ears from one and another of the ranches and everywhere the report Is that the gain Is turning out well The early apples seem trying to a." u abundance and quality for l"e ,ur" """""" va .'the Winters cold. Most of us can only obtain from a distance the ap ples so welcome lu Wintry days. For table use. however, we need not be at a loss, th drirs can be kept In use through all th days, while early fruit is in its prime and experience has shown that with less of the costly product of beet and cane can dried fruit be made delicious than can fresn. The long hours of sunshine are daily bringing a deeper crimson and purple to the prune and the plum white the pear trees aer bending uuder a load that promises to be plentier, larger and sweeter than ever before. ' The evergreen blackberry which never fails in abundance is gradually exchanging its hue of crimson first and then for the black that makes Us rlpenesg, known. It is difficult to Imagine the vine yards of California, of Italy and of Spain, producin a more beautiful vine than that of this humble fruit climbing as it does to an Incredible height its foliage of dark green enlivened by Its wealth vivid red or glistening black. Now that the blackberry has taken on a commercial value by producing a substitute for alcohol. Its growth is encouraged on ranches where former ly it found but little appreciation, ow ing partly to its being contemperan eous with an over supply of other fruit and partly to its inexorable thornes.
