to whip their troops into shape. We

ample Is near Santa Monica, which Is
on the southern coast Of California.
The preclpltous sides Of the canyons
debnuching into the Pacific ocean In
that vicinity are composed Of clay and
shale. Whenever rain falls on these
rocks, great clouds OF steam rise from
the canyons. The canyon crests and
faces are crowned by vltrihed rock

II Is reported by the early hlst9.
rlans that when the Mission fathers
visited this region 100 years ago the
ratives avoided these places. They
claimed that these mysterious canyons
were the abode Of evil spirits and the
Indians could not be induced to guide
the priests TO their vicinity.

Unlike the diamond aud the ruby,

FARMERS SURPLUS FUNDS
That Pay Interest Than In Land
He Cannot Cultivate.

The Treasury Department Is urging
the transfer TO private investors of
Liberty Bonds still held by banks,
which, as the Federal Reserve Board
has pointed out. by reducing the inflat-
ed credit situation will be one effective
factor for checking rising prices.
The farmers of the country took
their full share in the war loans and
FOR the first time became generally in
vestors in securities. The problem
arises. can they to their W advan-
age continue to invest money in Sc
curities, and IL so, what form shall
the investment take?
A leading rural economist recently
pointed out that the farmers could
not do better than place their surplus
FUNDS in Liberty Bonds. From many
quarters comes the warning against
the danger in rising land prices, which
are in part due to the investment Of
the farmers surplus In land which he
does not intend to cultivate, but to
rent and sell again.
The government Is interested in pro-
noting the holding OF Liberty Bonds.
in preventing fraudulent practices by
Liberty Bond manipulators, and in
continuing the flow Of money into
Liberty Bonds and other government
