We had the pleasure Of meeting
Don Juan Forster, Of the Santa
Msrgarita, and Don Marco A. Fora
ter; of the Las Flores Ranchos, in
the city yesterday. Don Marco
showed US o bunch of Australian
wheat, plucked at random from q
500 acre field now growing at Las
Flores. The heads are long and
We'll filled and promise splendid
yield. He also showed us speci-
men of SOuOra wheat, taken from
field now ready for harvesting,
which will give good return.
His wheat fields are on the coast
and are entirely free from rust or
blight ofany kind.
The crops hereabouts are turning
out much better than was expected
q month or two ago. The cool
weather has had wonderfully
stimulating effect on the growing
grain, and fields which were at one
time thought to be beyond redemp-
tiOn will mature sufficiently to
give a email yield of grain. The
Odessa wheat is keeping up its rep.
utation as a hardy variety. 1t dis.
plays a veritable Mark Tapley pro-
pensity to "cOme out strOngo un.
