Martinez, CaliforniaJuly 18, 1904.Mr J. E. Calkins,Davenport, Iowa.My dear Sir:You may be sure I sorely regret missing a visit from you, for good lovers of God's wildness are far from common even in these days of nature-books, nature-studies, & outings. I was in Australia when your kind letter to me was written, & did not get home untill the end of May.But you must come again. Editors should take a good long rest every year, a complete reviving rest especially after long continued over work has brought on nervous prostration "observations on the country,09194
