EDITORS OF HERALD: 1 send you
two boles of cotton, grown by

already been developed, and in the near
future sufficient quantity to irrigate
that whole section ofcountry, embracing
about half million of acres of the finest
land in California, will be developed.
This section is now attracting large
share of public attention.
The people should by all means send
Curtis to congress to help perfect a
proper system to have this vast and val
liable section of country supplied with
water.
also send sample OF the raisin grape
of the second years growth, raised by
Mr.. Shaw. Yours truly,
j. II. BEARDEN.
