the trip planned by Mr.. and Mrs.

of their last trip here several weeks
ago they decided to make the Off

They accordingly returned yesterday
and made the necessary arrange
ments from Mesa and will announce
this as their starting point. One
of the features of their trip is to

capitol building. They will make a
number of roundups while on the
route and will. of course, pull off
shows at numerous towns on the way

OPENS SUMMER SEASON
Almost Two Weeks Ahead of Seized
ue First Machine Starts
Summer Grind

Prosperity for the grain man seems
inevitable this year. Just as a sample
of the usualness of the season, the
Henry Sandoz threshing crew started
its seasons grind on Monday, over
two weeks ahead of the accustomed
schedule. The crops of wheat, grain.
oats and barley. are showing up fine.
and there is every Indication that
one of the best yields in years will be
realized
Ordinarily, the cutting of the grain
is barely underway even at this time
in the spring. The eighty acres of
barley on the Mons Ellingsen ranch
where the Sandoz thresher is work.
ing, were cut over two weeks ago.
The grain is in good shape and the
first two DAYS operations of the
machine have been almost as good as
any day in mid season.
Threshing machines are being gen.
orally oVerhauled now, for with the
commencement of operations by the
binders and headers, it means but a
matter of a. short while. until there
will be plenty of work for every
available thresher.
