COW H O LLO W By The Happy Farmer Was rather surprised the first of the week to wake up and find a blanket of snow on the ground. It won't be long now until the boys will be rounding up their sleds to go coasting. i Speaking of coasting the other day Elza Niccum went down to the old Owyhee ditch to get some wil lows to use on his shed. After cut ting willows for a while he was get ting dry. The ditch was running just a little but there was lots of water standing in it and it looked good. It looked like a good place to get, down the bank so he takes hold of a limb and put his foot on a rock. Low! The rock rolled. He sat down on his sled. When he got done coasting he was ten feet out and sitting in ten inch es of water. The freeze Monday and Tuesday took a lot of hard labor out of Cow Hollow. Jim Trummel was about half done digging spuds— but thanks to the freeze he is done now. W hat is left is done for. Chuck Share had a small patch he planted late for seed which was not dug yet. They are done for too. Most all of the lettuce was al ready cut. It's all done for now. Doc Raffington's lettuce was the latest. He would of had some yet. A car load of lettuce isn’ of any value In the field this year so Doc isn’t hurt much. We are turning our atention to fuel in this kind of weather. There isn’t a wood pile in Cow Hollow that would last very long in a snow storm. Russell Howell and Chet Sage have been topping beets for some time. They drive back and forth morning and night. Now that the hunting season is nearly over the pheasants have be gun to appear again and you see large flocks of ducks go over. Fred La Shause bought Chet Sage’s com field for two hundred dollars. There were eight acres. That isn’t a whole lot for 8 acres, but yet we Hollowites would like to know that we could raise $25 per acre on | our farms next year with no more expense than that. The price of hogs holds pret y good and there is lots of hogs in the Hollow. Far more hogs than there is feed for them. Thanks to the canal break the small grain crop | was a fizzle this year and Chet’s corn is the only grain to amount to anything that is for sale. Dude Parker may have a little corn for sale but there is quite a list of them that will have to buy feed. George Gabriel and Russell How ell will be the largest buyers now that Fred La Bhaunse has already loaght. Fred will still hav3 to buy more. See George Gabriel is out turning his clover he wanted to stack a month ago. It will have to rain pret ty quick or he will get It stacked yet. Dude Parkers' first cut o f Sorgum cane made 30 gallons of sorgum. He only cut four rows early. He had 4 rows more. It was late. I t never came up until the water came ,i after the bread. He cut it, but don't know if he got made up before the | freeze. Frank Parker is building a line fence between him and Clonlnger. The Lieutenant Is furnishing the material and Fraink is doing the CHURCH N O TICE Sunset Valley Assembly of God Sunday school 10 a. m. Find your place in one of our five classes next Sunday.
