The programs foi ^ July and August are the fullest. The weather in San Francisco ii such that at all seasons of the year warm wraps are necessary, especi ^ ally if a person comes from dowr south. From three o'clock in the after 1 noon until after midnighr the trad< winds coming directly from 1.h< ocean blow?beginning in Apr'l am continuing until October. Tu< '' mornings are delightfully pleasant. 1 I feel as if I could write a length.. r account of what we saw at the Expn 1 j sition but too much might prove tire J some to the readers. - On going to the Ferry Station t( make berth reservation we were in * formed that everything in the Stand ard Pullman was engaged for twc weeks ahead and our only chanc< was an upper berth In a Tourist car 1 | This we decided to take and leav< ! that afternoon (Sunday) at tw< e o'clock. We thought it was rea! . funny when we had to sleep in th( e. "Bureau" which was the name of oui car. The person who had engagec lower berth No. 3, didn't show up sc j we were able to get it. I was glac - for I don't like the "elevator service' I > on the sleeping cars, and this was tc ,1 be our home until we reached Cheyi enne on Tuesday. 'I There are 16 sections in a Tourisl s t car. The people who ride in these " cars usually carry their provisions along with them. There is a little heater in one end on which they car make their own coffee. One "wild - westerner" had a large suitcase full 8 of things to eat. He was making a a ' ! # t j four days trip and he didn't intend f | to spend any money on the dining I car' i| Leaving San Francisco from the Ferry Station over the Southern Paj cific it is necessary to go across the F Bay five miles to Oakland on a ferry * boat. In crossing the Sacramento River the whole train is carried over on a big ferry boat. This boat has a capacity for carrying as many as four long trains at one time. The scenery between San Francisco and Sacramento is fine, there e being numberless vineyards, fruit ort chards and some truck farms. We 3 I stopped for twenty minutes at Sacra mento which gave us an opportunity \ to walk around a little. Nevada. Forty miles of snow sheds and sev eral tunnels was what we passed through that night. When we woke ? up next morning we were in an entirely different looking country, in * Nevada with its snow covered mountains and dry sandy plains. All the j time the train was climbing the t mountains. At Sherman Hill we t reached the highest point, over 8,00C e feet above sea level. The altitude . didn't make me feel sick, only z " little hurting in my nose and a sen*, sation of shortness of breath jj Wherever there were grassy plains there would be lots of cattle anc [. sheep. No trees at all except in ir rigated places. ii At Battle Mountain, Nevada, w? stopped for ten minute?. Niine mile; from here the Kimberly Gold Mine ii >, situated. It seems that there i: jj plenty of gold there but no water tc mine it with. The Great Salt Lake. In crossing the Great Salt Lake w< were fortunate enough to see i' stormy. The wind was uiowmj very hard, making the \vaves rur A high. They even dashed so hare against the sides of the "fill" that th( salty water splashed over the can and against the windows, making ii difficult to see out. Thirty-om miles is the distance across. Th< - Great Lake is 81 miles long. ^ We had thirty minutes wait at Og a s den, Utah. This is a very prettj - place surrounded on all sides bj ? mountains. It was cold and rainy A circus had been tied up here foi - three days. On account of the bac * weather it couldn't fill its engage h ment. In Wyoming we saw more cattle sheep and horses and there wer< il more grassy plains and alfalfa hay. One of our new made friends, i perfectly charming young Swedisl r, woman, left us at Laramie. Sh< " said her next husband was going t< 0 be a North Carolinian. At Cheyenn* 1J ve left several other delightful friends. One young lady and a young man were going as far as Denver. We stayed at Cheyenne for nearly - three hours and in that time succeed, ed in seeing nearly all of the town. Here we had a. regular thunder r storm. This is one of the windiest r towns we ever saw. Denver. 5 We reached Denver Tuesday af, ternoon about dark. Our stay here - was very short, only one night. We 1 liked this city so much when we visited it in 1911. The streets are so - wide and well lighted at night. We ; saw a pretty good Burlesque show i which was 90 per cent girls at the 1 Tabor Grand. Denver is the suni shine city. They will guarantee you 325 days of sunshine a year. Of r course it was our ill luck to strike - one of the remaining forty days. We left Denver on Wednesday j morning over the Rock Island lines | ) on the Rocky Mountain Limited. At | - Limon, Colorado, we stopped a short - time. It was cold and raining and ) the wind was blowing something i fierce. We were glad that we . didn't live there. i One thing that particularly inter> ested me was the "tumble weed." It I is shaped like a ball and is light in i weight. When it matures the wind * breaks it off even with the ground I and carries it for miles over the > plains until it strike^ something. The I! fence along the railroad right-of-way ' | would be hanging full of the big ? weed balls. Another interesting sight was how the stock stood the T + wnimA/] +1ia 11 rV?a!A WOW I | VVCatllCl* 11 laill^U VYllViVi *? c* J ' into Chicago so we had lots of time | to notice the cattle. They would I wander on until they came to a fence then they would stop and hudi die up close together with their faces I from the wind. There were no i trees for them to fr.:d shelter under. l Most of the cattle have red hair and i white faces. ; j Through Kansas, Nebraska and | Iowa we saw real farming. One s field would be as large as Abbeville, and perfectly level. Some times r\r. i many as eight horses wou'd te r hitched to one plow?usually there i were six. The fields were absoluteI ly free from grass. Grain is the i most extensively raised Great i quantities of alfalfa is grown. Es- [ pecially in Nebraska and T -wa we noucea irom xne general ippeararce j n i of the homes that all the farmers ai e j rich. Their homes are Jarvfe 12 anil j ! 16 room houses, pai'ite I white with ! green blinds The 1 ir;X*.\-1 b:.rns r are three times as large as the d;\ elijing house. There wouul be two or j three smaller barns, a .gxrago, a wind mill and a silo. 'Jnc-.i a small I herd of cattle, horses, sheep and als ways a large drove or hogs, usually H red in color. The white leghorn i chicken is the most popular judging by the frequency with which we saw # them. ^ r We passed through Lincoln, Neb., ? the home of William Jenning.- Bryan, p I! In places the track was covered $ i with water, due to the heavy rains. ? i Sometime during Wednesday ni::ht ? - we went over 600 iter of trac'-: tiut p was under water. I was glad that r 5 I didn't know this until thi ne.\t ? 1 morning for i am sure I would Ivive p - been very nervous. The next Jay ^ i all trains were delayed on account # i of this place. We crossed the Mjss- j ; issippi River at Davenport, tho home A 5 of our townsman, Mr. D. A. Dewey. J ? j We reached Chicago late Thura- r 4 > (day afternoon. I thought 1 had ? ,seen crowded streets and blocked a crossings, but they didn't compare p ? with what I saw in Chicago. Here t the streets are narrow and the pave- J r ments rough, being broken in places, i i There are the subway trains; the sur- ? 1 face cars and the elevated cars. We ; went to a hotel on Michigan Avcn.ie 5 and of course got the full benef'*. o? res t the breezes. I had a time to keep fr( j from blowing away. We ?wnt a , ; half a day walking through Marshall ^ Field's Department Store. It covers - an entire square and is 17 stories j high. A small army of people are ca: j employed here. This is the home- Sp . town of Sears, Roebuck & Co. tal r Much to our disappointment, we an 1 had to shorten the remaining pavt of th< - our stay on account of tho heavy di< rains. m< i ,1 Saturday we spent in Ind &r.apolis, sai i which is said to be the cleanest town th< in the country from a civic staml- te< i point.
