Morrow county flflockmasters are
rejoicing over the range conditions
this season, and many report the
finest grass In many years. David
Hynd thinks the Sand Hollow ranch
is doing Itself proud in this respect,
and Bob Thompson asserts that up
his way the grass was never better
than now. We have talked with
others from scattering sections of
the range country, and all reports
are of similar nature. Stock will
go Into the winter in fine condition;
providing we have any real winter
weather, and there Is time for that
yet As to the situation among the
wheat farmers, the reports1 are of
like nature. Plenty of moisture to
keep the grain coming and the
weather mild enough to encourage
good growth. Mother nature seems
to be on the side of the producers
right now and doing her part to
encourage recovery.
