James K. Shaw, broke 100 acres this year, and put out a mile of hedge and 1000 trees. He has four acres of thrifty trees. If the hoppers pick his tame cherries, he is going to the Centennial, and will enter a complaint about it.
Wonder if James don’t half wish the hoppers will come, so that he can carry out his desperate resolution.
