Guess you won't find much of

Haines. You Sc we had an early

worse than that, no flavor.

that they had not been with him the

We're filling themselves up with the

Nothing, however, could induce
Haines or Davis to partake.
Their tastes had been trained to
something higher. They seemed to
feel disgusted that the Eastern peo-
pie had come in a bad fruit year
and caught them with the goods.
When the guests had finished their
visit and were leaving the delight

of the party. 1T was autumn and
Nevada had about the biggest and
best fruit crop in years. In idea
struck Sam that he must make an
impression on these visitors. Wasn't
he head booster Of the state by
reputation and shouldn't he keep
his title2
He invited the visitors to take a
run with him up to Genoa where
the country was worth seeing. He
loaded up an auto and started.
Meanwhile he had taken the pre-
caution to phone Senator Jim
Haines and they had quite eonAab

When then reached the Haines

was met blandly at the gate BY the
Senator and rs they marched up to
the house it was through orchards
loaded down with the most tempt

Haines dilated on the fine mountain
scenery. but never mentioned the
fruit.
They had nice lunch and when
it was about over Sam asked Haines
if he had any fruit for his guests.
"Haines gave Sam look of mild
proof and said that he hadn't any
fruit that he cared to set before
strangers. Sam insisted that would
like a peach or something and
Haines remarking that it was an
off-year for fruit, sent out and
soon there was a tempting array Of
the most lucious pears, peaches and
grapes that one would care to see.
The guests exclaimed over the dis
play of tempting peaches. etc, that
would have taken prizes ia fruit
show and fell on them with avidity.
