Fl WOODFORD SIGHT-SEEING A "This orange grove yon see on your right," said the mnn with the mega phono ou the bridge of one of the palatial sight-seeing curs winch na -ignte the thorough fares in and about ls AiiKcles,'' was bought three yen is ago for $1000 an were. Last week the owner refused SOrtO an acre. That may seem a big price for land but tho marvelous fertility of the soil com biued with the salubrious climate o( California produce crops which pa n big return on the investment." Tho lecturer had made many equal ly true (T) but startling statements in the course of u voyage and each time llnlph Woodford, Who was mak ing the tnp in the slenr of the ornTl stirred uneasily. Finally he was no longer able to control himself and rising to his full height be addressed tho passengers. "N'o doubt this is n fine country," he began, ''but you ought tu. see southern Oregon." The look of horrified surprise on tho face of the man with the mega phone was worth alone the price of the ride. "Southern Oregon," continued Ralph," is the. garden spot of the world. Its climate can be matched nowhere this side of tho Pearly dates and if 1 should attempt to describe to you the fabulous fertility of the soil you would brand mo a base de ceiver." Tho lecturer of the rubber-neck wagon was by this time making fran tic efforts to be heard but with a torrent of wonts from Woodford smiting the ears of the passengers ho seemed as speechless n n human shadow in a motion picture. Finally ho thought of his megaphone and mustered all his strength nnd pro fessional skill for n mighty effort. "Sit down," he bellowed, "sit down or I'll stop the car and throw you out." "Be calm, friend, be calm," replied Ralph, "I'll sit down if I'm worrviug you but in conclusion I want to sny to these people that they must go to the famous Rogue River valley." Ralph then sat dowu, and that is why there is nu longer room for him on a certain Los Angeles rubber neck wagon.
