We have had a most excellent season in the Valley, with intermit tent showers, and com crops es pecially are the best in our history and there is also a fine prospect for soy beans. With cattle grazing on a thousand hills the valley with its greatly improved pastures nev er looked more beautiful. In the words of the poet "No clearer or diviner waters ever sang with con stant lips of the hand that sendeth breath from heaven; no pastures ever lifted with more passionate blossoming”. Next to the land it self the most fundamental, the most awe inspiring thing in all the world is a beautiful glistening stream of water as it mirrows the majesty of trees and grass in the tangle that fringes its borders and in its waters lurk schools of fish for the sportsman. It was be tween two beautiful streams where the Garden of Eden was said to have been, and on the banks of the Jordan where the infant Christian religion was cradled, and in its waters the first Baptism took place as it wended its way southward until it lost itself in the stale wa ters of the Dead Sea. We were wondering how many witnessed the beautiful sunset one evening last week, as in a dim glow Old Sol stowly disappeared over the hills? It seemed to move no faster than the minute hand of a clock as we watched it slowly hiding behind the horizon, but in reality the earth was moving at the rate of nineteen miles per min ute.
