A LETTER.

San Diego, CAL, Feb. 16, 1912.
Editor LEADER No doubt many
of your readers would be interested
to know of my whereabouts, what
l am doing and seeing away off in
the very extreme southwest corner
Of Uncle Sans domain.
arrived at Los Angeles on
Christmas day, had no trouble in
finding my daughter, Mrs. Beulah
Barkalow, taking her entirely by
surprise, but it was a joyful meet
ing for US all. They have beauti-
full home call their own," an up to
date bungalow with all modern con-
veniences. On New Years day
went out to Pasadena where / saw
the New Years Rose Carnival or
Tournament. | don't think it sur
passed the Rose Carnival at Port
land of June, 1911, except one
would take in consideration the
time of year. Car loads of flowers
many kinds l could not name.
There were five miles of autos and
cars decorated beautifully.
l took a trip out to Pomona
visited my wife's uncle and had a
fine auto spin out through the
orange groves in the frostless belt
near Ontario; got all the oranges
and pomolas, or grape fruit, we
could eat, and seeing some grand
sights-Old Baldy, Mount Lowe
and Mount Wilson for instance.
A week ago last Monday l came
by boat to San Diego then went on
the car to La Jolla (pronounced' La
Hoya). That is a grand pleasure
resort with its beautiful cottages
and gardens, its shell strewn beach,
its awful chasms and caves. | had
the good luck to find a dozen fine
large abalone shells. We visited
the home of Old Ramona. The old
lady still lives there and claims to
be 120 years old. No doubt many
of your readers have read the
wonderful story of Ramona.
We also visited the beautiful
Paradise valley and Sanitarium and
many other places of note and
beauty.
There has been only three light
showers here since Christmas and
they fell in the night. The ground
is dry as a bone except where it is
irrigated and the farmers and stock.
men are praying for rain.
! expect to return home wher
Spring opens and get good drink
of pure cold water.

The 10th Senatorial District.
Following is the vote in this dis
.rict for members of the legislature
POLLOCK PICK UPS.

The extremely smoky atmos-
phere. Wednesday, was caused by
forest fires in Minnesota. A strong
east wind carried the smoke into this
section Of country.
The present hot weather is doing
the wheat fields no small amount of
injury Many fields are heading out
too early. and the yield will be some
what below recent estimates.
Lew Stevens, of Dale, was in to
see DR.. Shockey. Tuesday. He had
been repairing fence, and he was
sharpening stakes when the ak
glanced and made deep wound in
his knee.
Mrs. Loire Dornbush. of West
field, who has been taking treatment
in an Aberdeen hospital for the past
two weeks, is now nue. improved
and is expected to return home early
next week.
Chas l.. Gross. of Pollock, has pur-
chased the Artas Union Store from
A. A. Ludwigs. Mr.. Gross is ca
pable and up-to-date merchant, and
will continue to give Artas a good
mercantile establishment.
Fred HIM has sample of wheat
on display at this Office. the seed for
which was sown April 10. The
wheat is full three feet high, and
Fred says the whole field is as good
as the sample he brought in.
G. w. Tracy. Of the Pollock meat
market. shipped a car of heavy hogs
to the st. Paul market this week.
Most of the butcher-shops in this
section of the country find pork so
scarce this year that they cannot
keep supplied, but MIR. Tracy says
there is much more than enough
hogs for home use in this vicinity.
Mrs. Byron Jones and Mrs. Harry
Carlson proved themselves to be
possessed Of no small amount Of
courage last week when they cap
tured eight young coyotes. The old
wolves were close by when the girls
found the den and attacked it with
spade and shovel and soon had their
reward. Mrs. Chas. Frieohauer also
appeared on the scene and took a
shot at the old wolves with rifle,
but her craftsmanship was poor.
The new buildings in Pollock are
giving the town different and
much-lmproved appearance. The
Farmers Store building is all com.
pleted except a little interior work
and will soon be ready for occupancy
