Show LUXD, XEVADA. Allen Wakeling with his wife and family arrived hero from St. George after nine days hot and dusty travel. Mrs. Wakeling has improved wonder-fuly wonder-fuly since she came here. The weather here is dry and warm in the daytime, but one can sleep comfort ably under a heavy quilt or a pair of blankets at night and in the morning rise refreshed and ready for work. Otis L. Terry and Jos. Oxburrow left here this week for Steptoe valley to cut forty or fifty acres of barley. They have a brand new binder, bought in Salt Lake, which they have just brought from Milford. Second crop of lucern and grain be-in be-in cut. Our gardens look beautiful; cucumbers yield abundantly and are quite large; tomatoes ordinary size but none ripe yet; potatoes cannot be beaten for quality and they- are exceedingly ex-ceedingly plentiful; corn looks fine; beans and peas do splendid. The fnst fruit trees that Hon. Thos. Judd put out last April are growing like weeds. Atlantic. Lund, White River Valley, Nevada, August 25, 1S93. |
