BOOSTING OPPORTUNITY
PRESENTED TO VALLEY PE0P[ T

Once more the Press comes back
to the proposition that this is the
greatest opportunity the valley has
ever had for boosting.
There are those who urge the peo-
pie of the valley to remain at home
during the summer months, and there
can be no doubt that large amount
of money is spent each year needless
ly for vacations
But if every person who goes on
vacation will deliberately set him
self to the task of boosting the valley
at every chance, he will do more good
than his spending of money outside
does harm.
The fact should be rubbed into
every sore spot in the state that right
during the summer months this val
ley is selling million dollars worth
of produce month, and that this
goes on throughout the year With
this fact widely heralded, there will
set into this valley tide of immigra-
tion that will greatly add to the val
ue of every acre of land, and be of
much more good than the money
spent
Up to the present there have been
but very few days of uncomfortable
heat, and there has consequently
been little occasion for taking vaca-
tions, but there are already several
thousand valley people on the coast,
