THE TWELVE APOSTLES OF THE COLORADO DESERT A MONG the natural curiosities of our Southwest is an *^^* isolated group of twelve California Fan Palms growing in the open Colorado Desert of southeastern California, and shown in the accompanying photograph. They are locally known as "The Twelve Apostles," the appropriateness of which title is at once acknowledged by the traveler when he notices that one of the trees is blasted and its head entirely gone—the obvious Judas of the band.—C. F.
