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.
