It will be too cold soon to even think of such a thing, and there is noth­ ing more soul-satisfying than to start the winter clean in body and mind. We undcrstand that there are people in some of the bigger towns who have had installed tubs in their homes so that they can take a bath whenever they want and without waiting for the spring rains. This mode of procedure is commendable and the Catamount trusts that the day is not far distant when the cit­ izens of Cactus Flat will also be enabled to have a tub in each and every individual home and that the Saturday night bath will become as popular in the Sagebrush belt as it is in the apartment houses in the bigger and more ostentatios cities. !■ This idea of waiting for spring to come to take a much needed bath may sound romantic to those who ! yearn for the large wide spaces, but it has its drawbacks. Sometimes' when the rains hold off all winter i and the snow doesn’t start to melt During the Winter Months when Heavier Feed­ in the high mountains until along ing is necessary, you can be sure of uniform quality about the first of June, the idea of one’s waiting for one’s bath begins to grow monotonous to one.
