Show home of truth by MARIE M OGDEN 0 hottest weather of of the summer is now in evidence in the valley also the drnest in the ten years we have lived there even the tumble weeds and thistles whistles es show little growth and the usual array of wild flowers is missing hard on the stock too A change of scene and work for mary who is is changing places with marian deaton for the remainder of the summer we brought mary to town to stay in the bronson house and marian and son wallace will now take up permanent residence in the middle section to carry on there A busy week for the men who completed a second planting of vegetables on the farm out east in the hope of raising more of the needed food supply to tide over the winter months they also enlarged the pasture since the dry weather is playing havoc in that direction as well town gardens are now producing the fruits of the season with promise of much more if or when the rains come to help the growing things letters from friends on both east and west coasts and in inland cities tell of the tremendous cost of living and scarcity of supplies so no matter what our own inconveniences of living may be we are certain that conditions within our limited area are better and that we have much to be thankful for in all ways |
