Concerning southern California, Judg

Southern California looks its

copious rains the vegetation is
very fresh and green. The peach
trees and plum trees are in bloom
The orange and lemon crop is very
heavy. The heavily laden trees
with their golden fruit glistening
in the sunlight, make very beau

nre unfortunate in respect to their
fruit crop. Last year the freeze
got it. This year there is great
crop, but the prices are very low;
The weather was very beautiful
during nv stay. The sun was
quite warm during the day, but
some of the evenings were too
cool for comfort, and it is unwise
to be out after sundown without
an ovcrcoat or wrap, as there is
danger of taking cold or contract"

That is not a good place for
those suffering from lung troubles.
All such had better stay away
from there.
Los Angeles continues its re;
markable growth; but / heard
complaint that the usual crop OF
tourists mas not matured this year.
AS a consequence, times are not so
good as expected. No doubt the
foods and washouts have caused
many people to stay away; and,
then, it is likely that thousands
are deferring their trip until next
year, when they can see the exposi-
tion.
Los Angeles is well supplied
with "hot air' artists. real estate
men and about $500 lawyers.
On account of the narrow
streets, heavy traffic, and the rcck"
lessness of automobile drivers,
great many accidents occur. AS
result the courts are congested
with injury suits. They have
twenty superior court judges, and
they Keep grinding out business as
fast as the wheels of justice can

If Los Angeles had Great Salt

would rush with all possible rapidi-
ty. She would have the greatest

have an electric line of railway
