Tel. 70, or write Box 962, NYSSA, OREGON COW H O LLO W —Everybody here in Cow Hollow is nervous as to when the waier will be In again. We all have been so busy and still are, getting all the hay down and up again, or getting it stacked. All of Cow Hollow s hay will be in the stack when the water comes unless possibly Jim Trummel’s. His acci dent putting him in the hospital, has delayed his work badly. Jim had some of his hay in the shock and some more cut when he got hurt. Elza Niccum went over and raked and bunched that which was in the swath. Jim got out of the hospital Sun day. He has never gone home yet, as he can't wait on lumself although he gets around on crutches fair. He has been staying with neighbors. We hear all kinds of reports as to when the water will be back in the ditch. There is always an op- tomist who hears of the huge am ount of machinery working there and hopes that it will work miracles in a few days. Then there is the pessimist who goes up there and sees all that mountain of dirt and rock and. comes buck all blued and thinking only a miracle could get all that out in less than 30 days. The wind Friday blew our hay crews out of our fields so Homer Cates took Doc. Raffington, Geo. Gabriel and Clarence Niccum up to see how thew were coming along with the canal repair job. To the best of our count there were eight bulldozers (and most of them huge monsters) and five car ryalls working up there. A ll were crawler type machines. They were so thick they were just crawling around there like ants. Those huge bulldozers back up on a hillside and start down with a whole hillside moving before them. Up on top in the cut a huge carry- all comes around, drops down his lower jaw and a bulldozer gets be hind to push and he will take out a nice little bite of 12 or 15 yards of rock and dirt and crawl o ff with it while the bulldozer pushes up another load for the next one. You can't hear yourself think out there. They drove us back while they put off a huge blast of maybe a hundred individual shots. W e felt the earth tremble under our feet and saw the dirt go up but couldn’t hear a thing above the roar of those huge motors roaring around there. Our crops are taking it much bet ter than we all feared they could. Doc R affington’s spuds still look fine; Geo. Gabriel thinks his bar ley would make fair if he never got any more water on it. Chet Sage's corn is something to be proud of. Elza Niccum’s Alsac clover has al ready made a crop. Frank Parker seeded some alfalfa seed alone and had just got it wet when the water went off. I f we get water soon it won't be hurt much. Some alfalfa that was seeded early and not wa tered at all is still doing fine. Very few crops will be a total loss. We have made out fine about stock water. Wednesday Elza Nic cum was about out of stock water. When the water does come on everybody will want every inch of water they can get. W e fear load ing the canal too fast may cause another break which would be dis astrous. A Contest for Fishing Fathers 4 . Georgia Dennis has recently completed an In 4 .
