Pioneer canal, the oats being partially
headed out. Each weeks growth of
grain, vegetables, fruit trees, etc.,
along the canal lends additional value
to the lands and presents more charm
ing spectacle to the investor and home
seeker. The late heavy rains have caused
the grass to grow, and consequently the
stoekman is in better humor. How
ever, in g few years he will not have to
depent on rain, as ne can feed his steers
cheaply on alfalfa in the winter in the
