such rate as to render it apparent that few

prices in some sections of the United States nave

reach of the homeseeker and the investor in these
localities no longer receives the accustomed re-
turns for the use of his money. These conditions
in the northern and eastern states have naturally
directed the tide of land buyers to the southwest,
and particularly to Arkansas, where an album

be had at medium prices, and in this con-

At Grand View Raymond Babbitt and several other Flagstaff people joined the party and for the rest of the run Mir. Babbitt acted as pilot.
 The road through the pine clad hills was ono of the best in the whole length of the trip The mud was soon left behind and the machines Whirled on over long smooth stretches and easy curves where just enough rain had fallen to obliterate the tracks of others who had passed that way the day before and the only marks upon the road were the interlacing ribbons oC the tire tracks
 About fifteen miles below Grand View the last struggling cedars on the forests c,ige Were left behind and for two homo the machines moved down a broad barren valley with the towering blu" and white peaks of the San Fran D.eco- straight ahead.
