refreshments and post cards to
send home, A farmer coming to
town reported that a short dis
lance out on our further route a
rain had occurred the night be-
fore. Leaving here south and
east, the Clear Greek bottom
was soon neared where alfalfa
was growing and soon the autos
were running into mud holes. A
run of a few miles down the
creek and the path finder led the
way into Kemp City, swung
around, headed back, blew the
whistle, and halted. A run
around the little city, which is
midway between railroads and
the procession headed back for
Beaver City, twenty-five miles
due north. This was the far
thest south, being two miles
from the Texas line which some
we're anxious TO cross, but the
majority had seen enough mud
for that trip and the return was
begun.
Again over smooth roads, pass
ing good farms the return to
Beaver was made, the autos pull
ing up at $50 p. M. Two in
teresting incidents occurred on
the last leg of this run south
from Beaver. Will Elliott got
out to hand some printed matter
to a child, when a dog which ac-
companied the child, evidently
being an anarchist, scented a
banker and made for Will who
did some fine sprinting and
entered the car with a record
breaking high jump, just saving
the bosom of his pants by a
hairs breadth. Will insists that
he never saw the dog, that if he
had, the run and the Jump that
he did make would have been
nothing by the side of the one he
would have made if he had known
the dog had taken liking to him.
The other one was the actions of
a buckskin horse in pasture.
He was all alone and some dis
lance from the road. When he
saw the string of autos he made
run for the road which he
reached just even with the big
Buick car, and turning, he raced

main street of the busting coun-
ty seat town of Beaver; passed
the ruins left by the recent fire
in which the town lost it's promi-
nent buildings. A stop was
made before the large, well ar
ranged, and architectually beau
tiful Beaver county court house.
Here the citizens had gathered
to learn their fate at the hands
of the northern invaders. An
excellent speech of welcome was
made by Hon. ]. w. Culwell who
had that duty assigned to him by
Mr.. Braidwood, chairman of the
meeting. In his talk Mr.. Gull
well said that Beaver did not
know what this was all about or
what object, good or sinister,
Meade had by invadiag the CAPT
tai OF a sister county with such a
crowd of good looking men, to all
of which, o. r. Stevens, presi-
dent of the Meade commercial
club, replied that the invasion
was for good and for the mutual
benefit socially and commercially
OF both communities. Mr.. Braid
wood then explained that since
Mesde wished to see more of
Beaver county, the meeting
would adjorn till 8 o'clock that
evening. Again the automobiles
with the Laughrin big Buick as
path finder and pace maker sped
out of town south and west up a
gentle grade, passed fine resi-
dences and pleasant homes to
the high country south of the
Beaver. You old timers take
notice that the route was towards
and in to the old time Crooked L
Clear Greek range where Red
Alex used to range their cattle,
grazing them among the antelope
and fighting coyotes, graywolves,
bob cats, and cinnamon bears for
the calf crop when this country
was No Mans Land. Always
along section lines, passed X. F.
ID. mail boxes, between large
fields of ripening wheat, growing
grain, and other crops we spkd,
more west than south, to the new
town of Balko, near the head of
Clear Greek and on the north
side. A stop was made here for

coming to meet the Meade men.
Hand shaking, introducing,
words of welcome from the Bea-
yer men, and a mix of passengers
from the two crowds, when the
southwark route was again taken
with Mr.. F. Laughrln, of Beaver,
in his 40-horse-power Buick, as
leader and pace-maker. The
speedometers showed that the
Beaver men were leading faster
than we had been travelling, but
the little Bucks, Royals, and
Fords hit the new pace without
a tremble and kept up, in what
before night, proved to be
an endurance run to test any
machine. Passing from the flats
down to the Beaver bottoms at
the handsome residence of O. ].

met in his auto. He was stopped
and stood up with his hands in

with him.

the Meade Commercial Club
members to the number Of
twenty-one, left Meade at $50 A
M. for trip south through this
county and Beaver county to
study the trade situation, get &C
quainted with the people, and in
every way be able to the better
handle the constantly increasing
trade which is coming to Meade
from the south. 80
With H. H. Butler, in his Blu
ick, as pathfinder and pace
maker, the five automobiles left
the corner of the National Hotel
with flags flying and whistles
blowing. The pathfinder led the
way down the valley, through
and past, field after field of
blooming alfalfa, while large
tracts of ripening grain were
lying farther back from the road.
At the Odee school house the
valley was left and the climb out
on the Irish flats begun, which
was made without a halt or the
lowering of speed.
This is newly opened country
with a few exceptions and the
good farm buildings, large fields
of wheat, barley, and other small
grain, tell the story of industry,
thrift, and prosperity, Here the
distribution of sale day advertise
ments and other booster lltera-
ture begun and was continued
throughout the trip.
Soon we came in sight of the
Cimarron bluffs and about that
time we crossed the old Jones
and Plummer trail. Some mental
comparison between the old time
trail wagons with their six mule
or OK teams, and the autos spin
ming along at twenty-five miles
an hour could not be helped, for
it is type of the general devel-
opment of the country through
which the club was passing.
Swinging down the grade the
crossing of the Cimarron river
was made on the new Busing
bridge. Just after that the ag-
gregation pulled up at the Miles
post Office for dinner. Twenty
three years ago the writer first
stopped at the ranch and ate one
of Mrs. Buslng's dinners. 1t
was the best one ever eaten by |
him at a road ranch. The din
ner in waiting (for Mrs. Busting
had been notified by phone) was
not only fit for Royalty but also
much better and more appetizing
than that unfortunate class of
people ever have the opportunity
Of sitting down to. The menu
Of Monday was another fact
which emphasized the progress
the country has made since the
dinner eaten in the old stage
coach days. In those days every
thing except the beef and the
butter had been hauled down the
trail; now of the many excellent
fishes set before the hungry
crowd, all were home production
except the coffee, tea, sugar, and
:ropical fruit.
Dinner having been eaten, the
;lub was again speeding south
'ver a portion of the old trail,
out it was the last of it. South
vest was the course, always be-
:ween large fields of grain, along
section lines, and past good farm
houses, barns, and other build
ngs. The wheat was in full
read, a good stand, and good
straw. Many fields of broom
orn are in and some coming up.
With improvements on the farms
