A Visit to San Diego j
The following better was recently
aueceived by Mn.'sBubchart, a daugh-
ter late Jahn B Walton',
'Ger of en'r"y,
rand forwarded to Mrs. Herald Lawr-
ence. It describes' in an interesting
anlatuner a visit in San Diego, Calh-
ipinda, iby IMr. 'end 14s. Herbert Law-,
ranee of Edmonton:
The letter says:
"I should have written you long
sago but thought I would wait till we
had ,been out to see your cousin, but
-we haven't gotten out yet, so am go-
ing to write you anyway. I had ex-
•pected to have been out before this
rout haven't been able to make it yet.
'fihey are quite a long way
where we 'are. Last year when we
were here we met. and got acquaint-
ed with a couple from Massachusetts.
▪ 'Early last fall -they wrote and asked
nus if we were going to Meet them! in
• San Diego again this winter. They.
-were go'in'g to Florida • and coming
'here later. Well, to our great snur-
Trise they arrived here just four days
mfter.we did and we have belen around
-together most ever since. We usual=
1y go over to the park in the morn-
ings and have a few"games of shuffle
'hoard together; then quite a few af-
ternoons they•have taken us for some
'lovely drives and so the time has
;,gone so ,q iekiy. They only stayed
two weeks in Florida; they 'didn't like
it there. They had intended leaving
there for Los Angeles the 12th or 15th
'December, but they are still here
rand likely wi'LI be till. the end' of De-
cember. They 'want to be up in Los
-Angeles for the rose show in Pasa-
dena January, let. After the holiday
season we shall get around to see
'our friends. There are several of our
-friends we haven't seen yet.
Well, we had a nice trip down. You
-will likely have gotten some of the
details from Carrie and may be get-
lting it 'ovee again now; however, I'll,
try to ,gi'v'e you a little account of
cur trip. We spent Wednesday night
in Calgary as you know. Thursday
mliarning when we got to Dakota at
-mane o'clock, `Mr. and Mrs. Patterson
{'Mrs. Pook's -sister and 'husband) met
"RY5 at the bus stop and we 'had a nice
little chat with them for a few min -
lutes.'• We had dinner Thursday in
Lethbridge; then left for Great Falls
where we stayed Thursday night. We
should have stayed in -Butte, Mon-
tana, Friday night 'but we rode
through, so asto reach Salt Lake
City Saturday morning. We spent
!Saturday and Sunday there and had
two full days. We visited the Mor -
anon Tabernacle, museum and grounds
end also visited the new 'broadcasting
station of KSL and met Me. Earl
Glade, the -general manager. Attend-
ed a recital on the World famous
Tabernacle organ, also w'en't to the
State Capital building up on Capital
Bill, overlooking the city with 'blue
an'ounta.7ns beyond!. Sunday morning
at 9.30 we attended a broadcast in
the Tabe'rnacl'e of their Choir of about
1100 " v'oi'ces, then went to the M'etth•o-
distb Ch'u'rch and Sunday school. In
the afternoon we took a taxi out to
ane of 'their largest parks. In the
evening we went ,to the Baptist church
and then left Salt Lake 'City at 10.30
for Los Vegas, where we wanted to
plaice 'connections -at noon for a side
trip of about 35 miles out to see the
wonderful 'Baukder Dann under con-
struction. We would like to have
seen Salt 'Lake but it was a trip of
several miles and then the lake is re-
ceding so much it is now a milt fromi„
the end of the street oar line. They
tell us there is a,de'posit of two inch-
es of salt ' on the bottom of the lake.
Anyway we had the trip out to see
the ramie and that was a sight worth
seeing. Air we left Lb's Vegas
we travelled tthrougih San Bernardino
and Riverside to 'Vista, a small inland
town about 50 miles or so from, San
Diego. We were met there by some
!friend who surely gave us a good
tifilme. We spent a week there and
diad several nice drives through the
„country and to one of the oldest mds-
- scions of California. It is very pretty
around Vista. Each one seetnis to
Name a hill -top all their own with a
wonderful view of the Moirntains and
surrounding country and with' their
pretty California homes s'urroun'ded
'by all manner of fruits, flowering
'nhstubs and Runes, and birds flitting
nrot in'd everywhere and ,bursting with
song, it is a pretty eigiht and does not
seem ;muidh like -winter time. There
we were awakener every mvarnin'g by
the song of the meadow lark and the
imecking bird.
• 1 '
'Wle left Vista about noon Monday,
Nov. 12th, and, arrived! in San Diego
aboutthe !middle I d of the afternoon and
gat an apartment in the same block
where we were last year. We have a
side apartment this time and not so
much noise from the street, but we
have a nine view of part of the bay
and Paint Loma beyond. It looks
very pretty after night when it is all
l'ig'hted up and that's about the only
time we are in long enough to see it.
We were just diere a week when a
knock sounded on eur door and when
we opened it here were our friends
from, Massachusletts. They -got a 'big
surprise and so did we as we didn't
expect them so soon and they hardly
expected us at all as they hadn't got-
ten our letter before they left;.hothe
for Florida, telling them we were
confine. and it s'o'mehow didn't follow
them up. They were past passing t'he
block where we stayed last year and
thought they would call to see if the
landlady had heard anybhln'g from us
said here we were! They have a
beautiful new • streamlined: La 'Salle
carequipped . with radio and • often
when dinner was over we would hear
the ' 1;,onk of a very musical horn near
our window, so we wound grab hat
and coat and' away we would go for
a nice ride s'onn'ewhere. Sometimes
just up to the other end of the park
and sit and listen to the outdoor or-
gan or watch others playing shuffle
board at the u'p'per courts' or .bowling
or justt wander around among the
lovely trees, flowers and shrubs and
watch the gold fish in the pools and
listen to the birds. The great big
park is a real fairy land and one just
never tires of it. Somietiime•s we drive
out in the country'among the hills
and valleys and there the meadow
larks are just bursting with song. We
had a lovely drive to a wonderful
Cactus Garden on quite a high eleva-
tion overlooking the ocean and two
or three (beach towns on the ` wesrt,
the 'hills now. green frotmi a much-
needed 4 days' rain on the east and
blue mountains beyond, the Bay and
Point Lonna to the south -a mast
wonderful view point; theme the 11titfle
humming birds were flitting in and
out among the cactus and among the
lily ponds furl of gold fish and the
meadow larks were .stinging every-
where and they call this winter.
Sometimeswe drive over to the ocean
at Ocean Beach and Sunset Cliffs,
park the car an: the high cliffs over,
Looking the ocean, turn on the radio
and to the 'strains Of lovely soft
music we watch the old rolling ocean
which cannot 'be art rest; its many
breakers rolling • in and dashing up
on the rocks sending the spray high
in the air or booming in the caves
like thunder; there we linger till the
sun slips into the ocean and turns
the sky into a blaze of glory and we
reluctantly turn homeward, but greet
another blaze of color as we coarse
in view of the city all lighted u -p with
hundreds of 'brilliant and many -color-
ed signs, the warships riding at
anchor in the bay and the aeropiames
with their many coloured Lights flying
in formation over -ithe city. It surely
is a lovely place to spend the winter.
A couple of weeks or 'so ago we had
a wonderful drive with sohnte other
friends through mountains and Cann
yons of very peculiar formation to an
elevation of about 6,000 feet along a
winding highway down to Imperial
Valley about 250 feet below 'sea level
where sa many winterr vegetables
grow. We saw acres of lettuce, green
peas, etc., allso date 'palms and cot-
ton. We drove through several
towns in',the valley and out to a huge
flats called the Mud Pots where soft
liquid Mud .is boiling up out of the
ground and forming Mounds like the
beginning of a miniature range of
mountain's; sotmle puce the stream is
puffing up l'i'ke a steam engine or
where there are ponds, just blowing
bubbles. There is quite a depotstit of
salt which looks like a thin coating
of ice and the whose atmosphere is
filled wi'bh the odor of sulphur, a very
weird sort of piece but a sight you
wouldn't want to nil's.
We also crossed 'the border into
Mexico and spent a short time. in the
little town of Mexicati. We arrived
back! in San Diego at 6 p.m., having
left here at 8 a.m. and travelled al-
tag'ethief 360 miles -a Most wonder-
ful day.;San Diego is planning an
Exposition for next year to open tihe

now in preparation for that. Build-

A letter of sympathy was ord'er'ed
to be sent to Rev. C. C. Kaine who

The Temperance situation in the
Presbytery was discussed at some

Militating against wheat and flour
imparts from Canada to Mediterran-
ean countries, France and her Medi-
terranean colonies (particularly Al-
geria) have become wheat exporting
areas within recent months.
More package bees were- imported
into Canada in 1934 than formerly,
in •spite of 60 per cent. increase in
prices over the previous year. Many
of these bees, however, were to re-
place losses from the previous winter
and their purchase indicates that
more interest is being taken gener-
ally in honey produotion, although
the craps of homey had been light.

FARM NOTES
Canadian flour to Bermuda is duty
free. The dusty on foreign flour for
1935 has been increased to 121,4 per
cent. ad valorem.
Market For Barley in
Bacon and Beef
There is practically no limit to the
production of ibarrley in Canada and
recent tests show that it produces
'better 'bacon and beef than other
grains. • It is proving fully the equal
of corn when fed with suitable sup-
plements in the'form of home grown
leguminous roughages. Barley can
be used in almost any proportion of
the grain ration up to one hundred
per cent. As a hog feed it develops
an entirely satisfactory class of bac-
on, which is more than. can be said
for corn fed in equal proportions, and
as a feed for beef cattle barley is un-
doubtedly one of the best of our Can-
adian grown coarse grains. The in-
creased use of barley and other coarse
grain's at their present low levels
will 'make for much 'better quality in
the beef being marketed, and this in
turn will help create a demand for
more beef.
Feed Sunshine
Cod liver oil, the sunshine substi-
tute, is one of the most important it-
ems in the properly balanced poultry
ration. Where birds are closely con-
fined dining the winter months, as is
the case in most parts of Canada,
they receive very little direct sunlight
and with the ration's usually fed they
do not receive all the vitamins they
require. Calcium and phosphorus are
two m'ineral's specially required' for
laying pullets and hen's in the manu-
facture of eggs. The digestion and
assimilation of materials, especially
calcium, require ore of two things:
an abundance of direct sunshine or
an abundance of vtiltamin D. Cod
liver oil is rich in vitamin 'D; and is
oee of the reliable sources of this
type of food.
Your Seed Supply •
It as *et too early in the season
for a farmer to be tthiui'king about
his seed supply for yhe coming spring.
In far too many, casts no thought 4s
given to the matter until a few days
before the seed is required and by
that time it nllay be difficult to ob-
tain, and he will be compelled to take
seed of inferior quality. It is a good
•palncy to be sure of your seed sup=
:ply early in the season. The farmer

requirements. 3•t has been/ proven
that if such grains are well cleaned,
free from weed 'Seeds, mixtures and
other impurities and the very best
sown, it would imptrotvte rather than
deteriorate.
On a lot of farms there are bins of
the very best grains that are being
fed to our livestock or being sold
for feeding rpuTposes. Would it not
be good business to set up the fan-
ning mill at this time of the year
when farm work is not so pressing
and clean this grain or haul it to
your nearest cleaning centre? Small-
er grains may be chopped or taken
home and fed whole. They make good
feed, but poor seed, the ,belt is none
,two good to sow, for whatsoever a
man sow'etlh that shall .he also reap.
Start early, clean and reclean your
best grain 'befoa-e feeding and keep
the best for seeding purposes It
will also pay you from a financial
standpoint. The tendency is for pric-
es to go up as the season advances
and the supply gets 'less plentiful. It
is goad farm practice and you will
save time and money by being sure
of your seed supply early.
Eastern Canada Potatoes
Now Under Regulation
The Eastern Canada Potato Mar-
keting Scheme eurbmibted by repTes-
entatives of the potato industry, has
been approved +byl Hion. Robert Weir,
Dominion Minister of Agriculture,
and the Governor in Council, upon the
recoanlmiendation of the Dominion
Marketing Board.
The s'chem'e embraces the provinces
of Prince Edward Island, Nova Sco-
tia, New Brunswick and Ontario. The
!potato gi owers in these prdvincdss
have been receiving inadequate re-
turns for their potatoes and t'h e
'position of the grow'ens has been
tparttlt ularly difficult this yearn A
very large crop and lack of organiza-
tion has resulted in demnoralized mar-
keting conditions. The 1934 potato
crop for the four provinces is placed
at 48,308,000 'bushels, an increase of
8,188,000 'bushels Compared with the
production in 1938.
Under the scheme, it is eepectedl
orderly marketityg will result prim-
arily through control of the grades of
potatoes entering the commercial
channels cif trade and potatoes of in-
fer -len grades will not be allowed to
glut the market. Consignment sell-
'ing, w'hi'ch has been contributing
largely to price demoralization will
be, prohibited and sales will ie made
under firm contracts. The scheme al-
so provides for the developimentt of
export markets and for increasing
domestic eonsumlption of potatoes.
