domicile was a tent and later a log
cabin was built for the family. Still
later a frame dwelling was erected
and is occupied by the family. In
the early days the handicap of poor
school facilities had to be overcome,
and this was a source of sincere wor-
ry to the parents. The records of the
schools in Arbon valley show that
these pioneers insisted that their chill
dren attend the schools unremittingly.
One Of their daughters has the record
Of attending eight terms of school with
just one tardy mark opposite her
name. Last year four daughters at
tended the Central school and all Of
them have a record of neither alb
sent nor tardy" during the entire term
and this includes the past exception
ally severe winter. This year five
daughters are attending the same
school and to date their record of at
tendance reads the same. One of
their sons is attending high school at
Hyrum, Utah, and upon his gradua-
ton there next spring will enter the
agricultural college at Logan, Utah.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bailey rejoice in the OPP
portunity of giving to their children
the best education possible.
For seventeen years Mr.. Bailey was
postmaster at Arbon, and fifteen years
of his residence in the valley he has
been at various times a member of the
board of school trustees, at the present
time being chairman of the board.
When they came to the valley these
pioneers had ten cents in actual cash
capital, some debts, two cows and a
small flock of chickens. While poor
in material wealth, they had plenty
of energy and even more raw material
to expend it upon That their oppor-
tunity was not wasted is proved by
their farm with its well titled fields
and the domestic with its dwell
ling, big barn, %granaries and imple-
ment sheds. Son and daughter of the
early pioneers of the west, they have
followed the precepts of their fore
bears in all things-and not the least
of these is that they have seen to it
that their children learned to cheer
fully acquire the education necessary
TO success in life.

log cabins, hardly a ranch up there
being without a log structure and a
majority of the farmers residing in log
cabins. The buildings constructed
from logs are the warmest in winter
and the coolest in summer and the
least expensive. One thing, however,
has been noticed. and that is the en-
tire absence of the good old fire place.
In most sections of the west where
pioneers built log cabins the fire place
was an honored institution, and a more
comfortable spot during the long win
ter months is difficult to imagine.
That the cultivated area of Arbon
valley is new ground, as far as farm
ing is concerned, is evidenced by the
fact that throughout its domain the
remnants of sagebrush are still being
turned up by the pillow and the har-
row. Hiking through summer fall
low Or stubble the decaying roots Of
the sagebrush are seen everywhere.
When the land up there has been cul-
tivated a few years more it will show
the result by the increased yield per
acre. The old saying that wherever
the %sagebrush grows wheat will grow
will prove out correct up here the
same as it did elsewhere, and the pro-
%ductiveness of the soil of Arbon val
ley will yet rival that of other sec
tons of the wheat growing west.
Many of the farmers around Arbon
have done their utmost to keep their
lands free from mustard and other
weeds, working with harrow, weeder
and hoe to keep the pest out. In spite
Of all their efforts the mustard got
the upper hand because some other
rancher adjoining them left his land
and went to reside in some other coun-
ty or state, refusing to lease the land
except on grasping and exOrbitant
terms. This class of men will come
within the scope of the terms of the
new weed law, and fervent and sin
cere will be the thanks Of the honest
and Industrious farmer who recOg-
nizes the fact that no owner of land
has the moral right to contaminate
his %neighbors' land with crop-destroy-
ing weeds just because he is too weary
to eradicate the stuff on his own land.
Roy Lindley and his father conduct
farming operations on 1900 acres of
land on the east side of Arbon valley.
Their ranches are well up into the
foothills. and during the winter months
coyote hunting and trapping adds TO
the income of the ranches as we'll as
affording good sport. Coyote pelts
are worth money these days; in fact
anything that wears fur readily finds
a market. Mr.. Lindley is a good rifle
II. - -. - aA--A+a
in that manner, but the trap is not
overlooked. Last winter on several
occasions he had all four of his traps
full the same night. 1t seems that the
hills are still full of the chicken
thieves to judge by the nightly con
certs put up by them.

ALONG The HIGHWAYS
Gleanings by the Pilgrim in His
Wanderings Here and There.

During his stay in Arbon valley-all
sections of 1.-THE Pilgrim has never
failed to note that the Jim Hill mus
tard menace is the most difficult pro-
blem confronting the farmers. All
the wheat growers are practically a
unit in the opinion that exclusive
spring seeding for a period of two or
three years is the method to adopt to
exterminate the pest. 1t is true that
one result of this method will be that
the farmers will get a few bushels
less per acre during that period, but
all the advocates of the method are
frank in saying that the reduction
must be accepted in good grace; eth
er that, or no wheat at all in the in
tested districts. Before coming to Ar
bon valley the Pilgrim covered a fair
ly wide stretch of Power county, and
wherever farmers were met their
opinion anent the mustard evil coin
cided with the stand taken by Arbon
valley wheat growers. The enforce
ment of the new weed law and the ac-
tive cooperation of all farmers
throughout the county in the matter
of exclusive spring seeding will IN
ooubtedly result in the elimination OF
the evil. 1t is a case OF brains prov
ing itself the master of matter.

A number of farmers, having finish
ed their fall work in the fields, hooked
up their teams and blithely sailed
forth to the towns on the railroad
last week to get their winters supply
of coal-and then they sailed back to
Arbon valley again. but not so blithe-
~. for they bumped up against empty
bins in the aforesaid towns. How
ever. a little thing like that does not
dismay the rancher; ever since the
time that they came back without coal
they have been going up into the can
yons to the east and to the west of
the valley and coming back with pine
and quaker aspen wood for fuel. For
these many years the canyons have
given wood to the rancher and the
supply is still good for many years to
come.

On the main road leading south
from Arbon to Oneida county the Pill
grim met an Indian and his family
Flooding north toward the reservation.
On inquiry it was learned that the red
man had been down to Utah working
in the sugar beet fields and earning
around 81 per day. He stated that
the work was too hard and that he
had quit the job. Asked for p%articu-
lars as to the work engaged in. he
stated his part of it was to load the
beets into a wagon and haul them TO
the factory, and he added that the
wagon was too high and the beets too
heavy. This Indian was n of the
fat variety and somewhat more than
six feet high, and of course the idea Of
loading sugar beets at 81 per day did
not appeal to him to any great ex-
tent.
