They Are Coming Back, Many
of Them Are, From California
After the Boom Is Over

Guy U. Hardy. publisher of The
Canon City Daily Record. has recent
Iy made a trip through California. In
writing to his paper about California
he sums up the western situation in
the following story:
California is just at present having
great boom. There is no denying
that fact.
People are going in by train loads
with money to buy and they are met
on every hand by promoters with op-
en- arms and with something TO sell.
The whole state is being re-district-
ed. replatted, reset to new kinds OF
trees, re-boomed in every conceivable
way.
Some great enterprises are being
carried out. Millions of dollars are
being spent to build dykes along the
Sacramento river TO reclaim swamp
lands, and millions Of dollars are be-
ing spent to bring water from, the
mountains to irrigate great tracts OF
dry lands a little further back from
the sea.
Hundreds of thousands OF dollars
are being spent in many ways. In
many sections 10 advertise various
kinds of properties and TO sell them
at enormous prices.
City property in the big cities has
reached fabulous prices. Undeveloped
fruit tracts OF various kinds in every
part of the state are being sold at
prices they may be worth when they
are fully developed.
The boom is certainly on and the
people, the move-about people. the
speculative people. are bound for Cal
ifornia.
But they will soon be coming back.
The end OF the over-boomed. boom
Is in sight.
Mark you, / do not say that Cali
fornia is not a great state. 1t Is and
Il will always be a great state. San
Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego
will always be great cities and the
beach towns will always be attractive
to inland people.
But the boom will burst. II is now
on its last legs. The exact date OF its
bursting can nearly be given. II Is
on or before 1915.

MIA along these lines. ! found many

ments and they all--in n whisper, ad-

That is the pian-to unload In 1915.
And when everybody in any line any

SUGGESTIONS FOR COM

The loss caused by pocket gophers
to the farmers and fruit growers

culture to reach the enormous sum OF
twelve million dollars annually.
They take to traps or poison much
more readily than either prairie-dogs
or ground squirrels, but on account
of living in subterreanean tunnels. it
Is difficult to set the trap or place

be placed In the main runway by
opening up the laterals until IL Is
reached. or by using a steel pointed
prod from the surface. The latter
is the best method but impossible in
some sections of the state. In soil
that is dry and hard the gophers are
apt to burrow too deeply for the prod
