Now, before the grain harvest has even reached its close people are be ginning to turn their attention tcUhat which comes next in the annual rota tion of the season's activities the hop picking and prune picking season. It is believed that both of these will be commenced from one to two weeks later in the season than usual this year, owing to the weeks of dry, hot weather which have retarded the de velopment of the crops. Thus far both the bops and prunes in this vicinity are reported to be in excellent condi tion, and although tbe quantity may be somewhat less than usual, they will probably far exceed the average in quality. MELONS AND COFFEE WISE TALKS BY U. S. LOUQHARYS OFFICE BOY Well, Sir, school has been out two weeks and I haven't had any melons yet. I suppose Its my own fault for they are certainly getting plenty enough. I tell you what It is, next to the strawberry, a melon is the best thing a man can eat in the morning, and coffee is tbe best' thing he can drink. A lot of folks have a kind of grouch against coffee drinking, but maybe they never get the right kind. Really good coffee hasn't a grouch In a gallon of it. Poor coffee contains to much of the bitter principal "tannin," I think they call it,) and that makes a fellow peevish, especially too much of it. Lots of good ooffee is ruined in the making; boiled too long; made too weak, and dosed with poor milk. To be a good and wholesome drink, coffee should be roasted fresh, made strong, and brought just to tbe boiling point (or made in a coffee percolator by pouring boiling water over the pow dered coffee) and served with rich cream such as the St Charles or Pio neer brands. Ma says this Is so and that good coffee, properly made, never hurts anyone. Have you tried our M. J. B. coffee? WILLIE TTOBNEY AT LAW L. D.
