Even before reaching the State
liner Rirplanes appeared and, circling
overhead. accompanied the convoy
down the western slopes OF the Sierra
Nevada mountains.
At PlacervilIe. the men were greet
ed by a huge barbecue, a revival Of
the days OF "Forty-nine," a street
dance, electric display in the streets
and at the camp, and then on to the
beautiful State capital-Sacramento
where camp was made on the State
fair grounds. Immense through had
assembled. and the train rolled
through the level streets, between
two lines of densely packed, cheering
and flag-waving friends. A "ship-by-
truck" day was featured by the citt-
Zens, in conjunction with the holiday
in honor Of the train. A continual
round Of entertainment, feasting and
welcoming almost carried the train
personnel off its feet, and the camp
was visited by thousands Of inter
ested spectators.

IS Miles In Hours.
The trip from Sacramento to Stock
ton, a distance ofe eforty-eight miles,
" as made in eight hours. The en-
tire route was through the most pro-
ductive fruit orchards and vineyards
in the world. The mayor OF Stock i
ton and other prominent city officials
met the train and escorted 1t to Oak
Park, where camp was made. The
entire personnel was dined at the
Hotel Stockton roof garden, and
big dance followed.
Before leaving Stockton for Oak
land and San Francisco, all equip
ment was thoroughly inspected and
cleaned preparatory to final move
ment to the end OF the route. The
road pioneers were pretty well tired
out by the strenuous and continued
efforts Of the past two or three weeks,
but the morale was decidedly fresh |
cned at the immediate prospects Of |
attaining the fnal objective.

NEED FOR TRUCKS
TO INCREASE FOOD

To increase the supply Of food is
one Of the most important problems
with which we are face to face.
Food must come from the earth
We cannot fabricate the original sup
ply in factories.
We have got to go out in the coun-
try and get il. And as facilities i'm
prove for getting out into the coun-
try to get it, the food supply will in
crease.
When farmers find a market at a
fair profit for anything they produce,
they will produce il.
