however, that 100000 acres of this

how much will be expended in Wash

settlement, but large proportion

EDWARD P. WESTON, WHO WILL ATTEMPT
10 WALK FROM CALIFORNIA TO NEW YORK
Weston will thus both technicaI1FhG
actually have walked across the con
tinent from the Pacific to the Atlantic.
One interesting feature Of the walk
Is that when it begins Weston will be
In his seventy-first year and that it
will end in his seventy-second year.
He will celebrate his seventy second
birthday ON March Is en- route.
At this season the extreme southern
route is the only available course to
insure success. As there are no recog-
nized post roads between Los Angeles
and Chicago, Weston will be COM
PEELED to follow the track of the Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad,
having secured the permission Of the
railway officials. This will enable him
to crafty long cherished desire to
visit the famous Grand Canyon of the
Arizona and the petrified forests in
that vicinity.
Weston's previous performance, when
he covered the continent between
March Is and July IA Of last year In
1O5 days, was generally considered .
marvellous success by the public.
During the latter part Of the jour
ney, however, Weston encountered al
most insurmountable obstacles In the
shape Of a series Of unlocked for
storms and intense heat. He was
greatly handicapped, moreover, by hav-
ing frequently to double" on his trail:
hence his record was 1O5 days.
