acres more by the last of this
year; also planned to raise $50,

realize that great things are just
beginning to place in China.
The need of teachers for the
country schools in Korea was sc
urgent and the danger from the
government unless supplied with
teachers, resulted in every girl
of the highest class at Holstow

VALLEY LOOKED GOOD
 ID FORMER RESIDENT
James s. Day Contrasts it With South
 ern California.

James $. Day for many years resi- dent of the valley but now living at MOnrovia, California. arrived in town on Saturday for a stay of a day or two. MT Day had not been here since Jan uary and it was pleasure for him to get back even for d short time. The sight of the green fields of the valley did him good. There is little like it to be seen anywhere in southern Cali fOrnia. The season has been a bad one there and the crops are all but fail ures. Not more than one fourth of the acreage of grain will be cut at all and that that will be cut will not make more than half crop.
 Tn the cultivated region one sees on ly small patches of green but for the most part. the country is as brown as tn desert. Southern California will make a heavy demand upon this val ley for hay this season.
 Speaking of the damage to the cit rus industry by frost last winter, Mc. Day said that it had not been so great a $ it was feared it would be- The dam age Twas chiefly to the fruit not yet gathered. The trees are coming out and are now heavier with blossoms than they have been for many years.
 A few orchards were not injured at all but they were small ones in seclud- ed hooks along the canyons which the frost passed as it rolled down. In some cases a part of an orchard lay within the course of the frost and it could be traced by the swath it cut through In some cases one-half the foliage of a tree was left green while on the other, it was left brown and dry. .Monrovia is in the heart of one of the largest orange growing districts.
