Show THE ZEPHYR AUGUST 1994 forgot to mention they had to be sprayed at least twice in the spring and early summer and most years they had to be thinned. 1 planted com and alfalfa; melons and a big garden. The melons were planted close to the creek so when the Indians came in the fall to get willows from the squaw brush to make baskets, stands and chairs they could get ripe melons out of the patch. They were very careful not to step on the vines. Early in the 1950' s the peaches were paying off enough so I could help Pete get the house built like he wanted. We did need those twin boys, they always helped willingly on the farm. We had a farm tractor and when they were eight or nine years old I seldom had to use it. At this time Pete ran a loader for the County road. He had decided he was not a farmer. The boys and I could cut the hay but when it came to hauling and stacking it Pete did that with the boys' help.

I went to the Mesa a time or two to v see how he was doing. He was getting out quite a lot of high grade. He made one shipment then he came home with a high fever. That day he would not go to a doctor. The next morning I called Clara Hettmen, my cousin and a nurse. She came up and talked him into riding with her to the hospital. He seemed to be a little out of his head. I was with him most of that day. At 9 o'clock that night I told Dr. Temple he had something I had never seen. He went in and looked at Pete. He called the University Hospital in Salt Lake City. The next morning they sent a serum by plane to him. He had Rocky Mountain spotted tick fever. He was one of the first people they had tried that serum on. It took a long time for him to be able to work again. When school was out Peter went to Salt Lake City to find work so he could buy his own school clothes. I called Peter and he came home. It was about 10 days before the doctor thought Pete would live, he was in a coma most of the time. Yes, I needed Peter. We mined some ore out on the Blue Goose in February to get money for Peters graduation. In 1954 Pete and Mr. Balsley sold their uranium claims on Wilson Mesa. Pete got $6,000 to start the new house. One load of peaches August 23, 1954 made another payment of $1,500. I sold two tracts of land which paid for the bathroom and kitchen, etc. August 26, 1955, from the sale of peaches, we finished paying Scharf Construction clear off plus any other bills made for the new house. 259-50- 21 (H) 259-56- 70 EXCELLENT BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY 12 Unit Townhouse 2 bedroom, 1 12 baths.
