Mississippi attend mOtion-pic-
ture show they carry quilts with
them to darken the windows. This
unique form of cooperation is EN-
pl0yed in the exhibitions of motion

out by motor truck which carries
its own power plant. The pictures
are shown in many communities

The San Luis valley is rather
large valley, on the west side of the
river, The land isn't very good but
here on the east side there are vast
stripes of fertile land.
We raise mostly wheat, rye, bar
ley, oats, peas, alfalfa and sweet
clover, Wheat makes anywhere
from 20 to l5 bushels per acre. A
field that joins our place last year
made 35 bushels per acre and other
crops run Droportionally. An acre
OF peas will fatten more hogs. than
an acre OF good corn Alfalfa makes
from 3 to ton per acre.
