THE GOLDEN STATE.
Nat Morris, Formerly of Mexico,
Writes an Interesting Letter.

Modesto, Calf, April 6, 1915.
Editor John Beal: Date on the
wrapper of my paper indicates l am
owing you 100 cents, which you will
find herewith.
We have been living in California
now four years and have made many
friends, but we still read the Mes
sage with interest. 1t always makes
us think of our friends of old and
suppose the dearest to our hearts are
the scenes of our childhood and
those we remember being associated
with in early life. OF course we
think often of the good people of
Missouri. BY the way, we would be
glad to receive a line from any of
them.
see by the Message you have been
having much snow. Well, we
haven't seen a flake of snow fall for
years, but we can see oceans of it on
the mountains any time we wish to
look. Ranchers are cutting their
first crop of alfalfa now, so we will
be harvesting the balance of the
summer. We cut from four to seven
crops per year, which is fed mostly
to dairy COWS. California has a
large acreage of grain and beans
this season.
The fruit crop is also fine pros
pect. One of our new industries is
milk condensing plant, that will cost
100000. 1t is to be located at
Salida, about the center of the irri-
gated district. This part of Califor-
MIA is developing rapidly. There has
been great change since we came. At
present we are five miles north of
Modesto, on a new electric r. r., run
ming small merchandise ctore. We
also have a lumber yard and large
warehouse for hay and grain.
Here is an invitation to any of the
friends and the editor to make us a
visit when you come to the P. P.
II. E. am respectfully yours,
