Bothwell, an avid Indian
artifact hunter, investigated
some of the caves along tho
river but found no evidence
of artiracts. He theorized that
the caves were too hard to get
to from rlmrock for the In

County Grain Growers were
looking for their first loads of
barley this week. None had ar;

McCurdy, assistant manager,
said.
Some from the north end of
the county will undoubtedly be
received by the first of next

starts to come, wheat will not
be far behind.
McCurdy said that the barley
looks good. "Everything looks
pretty fair," he added, although
some grain fields are spotty.
June rains came as a blessing
to the ranchers and the rain of
this week didn't hurt Recent
warm weather has brought the
crop on fast McCurdy said that

were not a bit welcome.
