ried on here.
Delegates Express Surprise
In speaking of the trip from Salt Lake
City, Farley p. Jenson, corresponding
secretary of the association, said last
night:
"Only part Of the delegation has seen
Southern California and they are sur.
prised at the fertile valley which they
passed through. 1t is a novelty to some
of them to see place where a man can
plant tree and live to see 1t bear
fruit. In our country a man plants
tree and his children gather the fruit.
