it Woodn't hert to invent a egg
making machine. We ALREADY
have a machine that will make
chickens otta eggs. Now to make
the eggs.
I saw Leo Colstad and MS
wife in town last week. Leo
says that he misses bLlng home
but his Werk is the best thing
for him. Leo is in the air Core.
Talking about Leo ColStad
makes me think of Clarence
Astrope. Clarence is in Roberts
California, that was the last
address I had of him. I believe
he is in the motor division, but
I'm not Shure. I wonder how
Clarence is getting along, be-
cause I amt herd a werd from
him. I kinda like to keep pos
ted on all of the Big Horn Guys.
I knoe just about every boy
that has left, so why shouldn't
we like to hear from them.
In the last four weeks we
have shipped 4 carloads OF
scrap iron. There probably is
about 2 more that was deliv-
cred to Sheridan and Billin. IS.
If you still have any more
scrap iron left, don't hold up
the werks. Let's git it in, and
have it over with. If you have
any Cow hides dry or green
you don't hafta have 'em in
spected at any place but bring
them in and give us a bill Of
sale and we will do the rest.
Sheep pelts, pulled wool and
shered wool are all bringing
good prices, so bag 'em up and
bring 'em in. Old batteries, "a
diators, copper, brass, etc., all
good as cash.
About a yeer ago or less
remember reeding about a gun
that wood shoot electrisity. It
wood shoot 5 to 10 miles away
and kill. It was supposed to
have shot a berd S miles away.
The people were scared to let
him use it and the maker
smashed it up but sed if ever
this country ever needed it he
wood rebuild another one. Dc
you remember reeding about it
You knoe if that wood be the
case, a guy could use a few Of
them guns and NOW 'em down
like Macarthur does. Then with
a few Of them we could gil
along without so much equip
ment. You knoe if they kin
make 'em shoot 10 miles ther
there is no reason why they
couldn't shoot to japan and dc
business too. Now if only Wal
ter Winch wood find the maker
Different ones that have red
last weeks ad have. kinda mis-
understood it a little. 1t was
taken by some as a jibe at DR..
Wolfe. I respect his profession
and value his friendship, so
hope this is taken as both a
correction and an apology.
Gee minee it seems Like I JUS
saw Kurtis Hopperstad the 9TH
er day, and his mother jus tole
me that he is in the Marines,
San Diego, Calf. 1t seems like
everybody wants to go. To me
it seems like a millyon have
left this county. Out of the
Millyon I think there is only
about 7 that I don't knoe.
Farmers and Ranchers - II
you need a Waterproof trapau-
lin you had better git it now. We
have them all sizes and if it's a
tent you need we have it too.
All sizes. No we don't hafta Or
der them we have them on
hand. On tents and tarps your
credit is good, if you pay cash.
Az penny saved is supposed to
be a penny earned. In Hardin
a penny won't help much, its
the dollars that count. I remem-
Der my teacher in the banking
school she sed to watch the
pennies and the dollars wood
take care of them selves. I'd ra-
ther watch the dollars and let
the pennies take care of them
selves. And another thing I've
herd people say Absence makes
the hart grow fonder. I don't
believe it. I remember l time
I stayed away from home a
hole day to see If my wife wood
like me better. When I got home
she sed where in the heck have
you been all day. I don't think
it made any difference to he1
hart, but there is l thing ]
agree on with everybody-whe-
ther its a shack, barn, or a
manshun, there Is no place
like home.
Did va knoe that Mr.. anc
Mrs. Clements heard from Pots.
over the telafone from Kamr
Lewis in Wash. He sed to thank
Charley Butler for the subscrip-
ton to Houses paper and that
he was gittin' along fine. HI
sed he might transfer from the
medical corps to the air corps.
