And what did she leave you?” "The cats!” Thank God every morning'When you get up that you have sonething to do that day which must be done, whether you like it or not. Being forced to work, and forced to do your best, will breed In you tenperance and self control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle never know, - Charles Kingsley» :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Mr, Dick Veale is in town visiting brother Bill, Just released fron the hospital after one and a half years, Dick (sheepherder) was in the big blizzard of April 19^0 and lost for five days and nights near Manyberries, Toes from both feet were ' amputated.

Friday, along with Smith Ackroyd and'Ueorge T, Dudley, we attended an auction sale'4 of 2000 feeder iambs at Cardston, The lambs'"Were sold by weight, Nielson Farms of Raymond were the big buyers. As the pens of 100 or more o«me into the sales ring we would gues^ the weight. Our guess oh one lot was 73 pounds, later the Auctioneer announced the number and the weight 73 pounds. Years ago lambs and cattle were all sold on the'lioof, No scales, A good livestock buyer, to hold his job, had to be an expert at estimating the wieght and quality of livestock. Besides a good buyer, one writer wrote that ”he must be an expeft driver, talker, liar, dancer, traveler, poker player, diplomat, financier, capitalist, market forecaster, weather man, feed expert, and authority on all types of cattle including blood lines, pedigrees,"quality and disposition, etc,, etc. Also must wear wide brim hat, carry a whip, * long oheokbook and have a.ready supply of alibis, . . . .and that is only half.

He hasnrt purchased any feeder cattle yet to eat up the by-products. Why pay 21 cents for stock steers and sell then for 21 oents, Louis said years ago we started harvesting beets on the 5th of October, pulled and topped by hand. Why the rush now? Leonard Whitt *s dog looking into the bright side of Kay Neilsons Pontiac and seeing what he thought was another dog, began to growl and was set to fight when pulled away.
