Show CACHE COUNTY CROSS CUTS. NEW Lime for sale at the Temple Block. je18-tf <br><br> SOME hay is wanted on donation to the Temple. OUR hottest days for this year we trust, are over. <br><br> THE wool crop of Montana is coming down over the U. & N. [Utah & Northern Rail Road] <br><br> SCORES of loads of hay roll into town daily from adjacent farms. <br><br> A "FOOT" bridge would be "handy" across the other ditch at the co-op. corner. <br><br> A GENTLEMAN from Lewiston says that crops up that way and near Franklin are only fair. <br><br> ON THE way to Smithfield the other day, we met some very numerous and tall mosquitoes. <br><br> THE hay crop is better in the vicinity of Logan, than it was last year. It is bringing $8 per ton. <br><br> GRAIN in this vicinity is beginning to ripen and our farmers will shortly be in the height of harvest. <br><br> THE young trees on the Tabernacle square are growing finely. That will be a beautiful spot someday. <br><br> PORTRAITS and biographies of Gen. James A. Garfield and Gen. Hancock for sale at the Book Store. <br><br> THE biggest barn in Cache County is being built by Lamoreaux & Son for David Reese, Esq., the cattle dealer. <br><br> IT will require two trains, with two locomotives attached to each, thirty three cars in all, to bring Cole's circus to Logan. <br><br> JNO. C. CUTTER, Esq., of Salt Lake, the merchant who deals in goods of home manufacture, came to Logan last Monday evening, on business, and returned the following evening. <br><br> SHEEP men attention' A fine lot of thoroughbred Spanish and French Merino Rams are on exhibition and for sale at the Logan House, Logan, Utah, by Jewett & Munson, of California. <br><br> THE operetta, "The May Queen," was repeated on Monday evening last for the benefit of those who could not gain admittance to the theatre, on account of its being so full, on Saturday night. IT IS expected that six hundred persons will come up to Logan and Franklin on the grand excursion which is being gotten up by the 10th ward land of Salt Lake, and which leaves there Aug. 25th. <br><br> A WALK along various streets in Logan, will show that an encouragingly large number of new buildings are being erected. In point of material prosperity Logan is still the ?? town of northern Utah. <br><br> HON. CARL Schultz, Secretary of the Interior, and party, passed through Logan Tuesday night, on a trip to several points in Idaho and Montana. Mr. O'Connell, general agent of the U. P. R. R. was with them. <br><br> DR. E. V. WINGARD, who has been practicing medicine for some months in Logan, left on Sunday morning last, for Park city, having, as he states, even better prospects of success there than here. Our best wishes attend him. <br><br> WE were called upon last Monday by W. B. Hess of Eureka, Nev., who is selling an article of his own manufacture, which will take out grease spots, clean windows, &c., in a very thorough manner. He is spending several days in Logan, selling the article. <br><br> FARMS lying between Logan and Smithfield will not, it is said, produce as heavy crops of grain as they did last year. Land in that region that produced seventy-five bushels of wheat to the acre last harvest will fall considerably below that figure this season. <br><br> THE freight business of the U. & N. is very heavy, and all the locomotives on the road have all the work they can do. Large quantities of freight are coming down from the north, which is something new, and special freight trains have had to be put on to convey it. <br><br> "TELL me, ye angelic hosts, Ye messengers of love, Do printers, swindled here below, Have no redress above?" "The angels flapped their wings and said" "To us a heap is given; Delinquents on the printer's books, Can never enter heaven." <br><br> EVAN STEPHENS, Esq., desires to make public acknowledgment of his indebtedness to our efficient choir leader, Brother Alexander Lewis, for assistance rendered in bringing out the operetta, "The May Queen," and in training the singers. He states that Brother Lewis worked very faithfully to make the piece a success, and that he is duly grateful therefor. <br><br> NOTICE is hereby given to the superintendents, choir leaders, and singers of the Sunday schools of this Stake, that a meeting for the purpose of preparing for the coming Jubilee, will be held until further notice on the last Saturday of each month in the Logan Tabernacle, commencing at 11 o'clock a. m. It is earnestly desired that all who have an interest in the matter will be present. <br><br> GEORGE SYMONDS, Esq., leader of the Tenth Ward brass band of Salt Lake, accompanied by Messrs. John Andrews and Chas. Cheshire, came up from Salt Lake to Logan on Saturday last, to perfect arrangements for the contemplated excursion, under the auspices of the band, from Salt Lake to Franklin, to take place on the 25th of this month. The excursion promises to be a grand affair, and no doubt many Salt Lakers will join it, and come up to see their friends in Cache. <br><br> WE HAVE been informed that Pres. Preston has discovered an excellent means for the destruction of the small, red insect that is found in immense numbers upon the trees of many of the orchards in this city. He simply turned a stream of water, from a hose, upon his trees and it washed them clean of insects. The pests are doing great damage to the fruit and foliage of the trees, and if so simple a remedy as this will destroy them, the water works should certainly be extensively utilized for the purpose. It is reasonable to suppose that, in a climate like ours, where heavy rains are of very rare occurrence, insects may thrive in our trees that, in other climates would be destroyed by the rains. |
