Returns From the Hills

M. L. Hastings and family re-
turned, Saturday, from a camp
ing trip at the Mountain House,
the old stage house on the Elk
City road where Mr.. Hastings is
ranging his herford cattle. He
states they had an all day snow
there Thursday and the following
night a heavy freeze. The storm
was so severe that the cattle
started down and the f1ys and
mosquitoes were all killed. They
say that many of the huckel-
berries on the lower hillsides
were injured by the frost but, on
the higher hills toward Elk City
they are yet green and will not
be ripe for two weeks.
Mr.. Hastings states that the
range this season is the best it
has been in years and all the
stock are in fine condition. =

food supplies of the mission
were destroyed and some forty
children were thereby left home
