Just a few sprinkles of rain so far but,—the thrashing machine should of been in the Hollow yes terday. George Gabriel has all his hay in the shock and is all set to start a two or three day stacking Job this morning. Jim Trummel just started stack ing his hay yesterday. F*rank Parker and myself wants to cut our hay right away. In fact we all want to get our hay up before the sugar beet campaign starts. The defense work has taken all the surplus labor out of the coun try, so now the sugar Industry is badly In need of an “ all-out” among us farmers. Part of us Hollowltes would of had our hay up if our portable hay der rick had not of went hay-wire. The main stick In the outfit had about worn out when we had a slight ac cident on a job for Elza Nlccum and finished it up. The inability of Bob Reffet to get his deer held up up for few days, too. Bob wanted to get his deer before he came back with our pole. We got our pole but Boby says, ”111 have to wait until I go back for any deer.” Homer Cates sold three hundred watermelons for five cents apiece. Doc. Rafflngton says “ that sounds like Oklahoma prices, don’t It?" The way it happened was Homer owed a fellow fifteen dollars. He came out after his money and Ho mer informed him, “ I don’t have any money but I got lots of melons.” “All right,” was the reply, "111 take your melons." Threee hundred was all he could load on. Bet he has a 'tummy full of melons for some time to come. Homer's coments was “I don’t care. I could pay several debts that way. I haven't even enough hogs to eat u pall my melons.” Thrashing machines a certlnly getting run this year. Last year Dit- les over in Sunset Valley never tak en their machine out at all. This year they traded it in on a new one and have been so bsuy with it that we can't get them into Cow Hollow at all as yet. One came to Jim Trummels and thrashed h i s white Dutch clover and promised to be back in a few days to thrash out the Hollow. That’s been a couple of weeks and we can’t get him back yet. ------------f ------------ USE JOURNAL WANT ADS Milk Builds Healthy Bodies School days are here again and chi'dren need all the ex tra energy that they can get.
