 and if the public appreciates it as we do, it should be a tremendous success." 



From Mr. Theo. B. Comstock, Engineer, Los Angeles, Cal.

 not need to be told of your patient, faithful labors. But I trust that it will make known 

 clearly the debt incurred by our people through your accomplishments."-

 The Avocado in Southern California' by Mr. F. W. Popenoe. It is a most timely and
