He Is Not DISCOURAGED

verse circumstances and not get
discouraged, we believe r. b. Morri
is entitled to the laurels fire m thi
section of the country.
Mr.. Morris came to Malta last fal
and bought gasoline traction pillow
ing outfit fully expecting to be able
to get one hundred acres broker
before the ground froze up, but cold
weather came on much earlier than
usual and The blowing had to be
given up until spring
When spring opened up he was
one of the first to be in the field with
his blowing outfit, but as his ranch
is located on Alkali in the heart of
the gumbo district work was slow
and stops numerous. However, he
persevered until at the present time
he has broken the virgin sod on
three-hundred and eighty acres of
land, besides blowing some old
land. In addition to this blowing
he has prepared the soil and sowed
to grain two-hundred and seventy
five acres of land. Mr.. Morris has
been assisted in accomplishing this
amount of work by his son, Reuben,
but has had comparatively little 9TH
er help. He has been up early and
worked late, expecting to be amply
rewarded for all this expenditure oil
labor and money by abundant crops.
instead, owing to the continued dry
weather and the disappointment in
receiving water from the big ditch
about June first, he will not harvest
enough for seed.
Perhaps the most significant part
of his experience is the fact that he
is not discouraged and the JOY he has
found in congenial work will not per-
NIT him to relinguish similar effort
tor large clop next year.
