Home on the Range Where
the Skies Are Not Cloudy All
Day"-that's the kinda weather
we've been havin' ever since
July /, with the excepshun of
4 or 5 days. Yup, that song
was ritten for a place like good
ole Montana.
Slim Slattery got a kick outta
readin' that his favorite song
Way Out West in Kansas"
Slim sed he wood give the hi
school band $1,000 werth of
War Stamps if they wood play
that piece for him in front of
his bisness, and I'll give an
other $1,000 werth too if they
play Red Wing" in front of
my place and Hollus Johnson
sed he wood give the same if
they played Nebraska's favor
ite college piece in front of his
place. Ray Catron set he wood
give $1,000 werth too if they
wood play Whose That Knock
in at My Door," Ray sed they
wood hafta play it in front of
the Community Gas stayshun.
Yup, the hi school band kin
git a Fifty dollar bond and have
$3.50 left in stamps if they on
ly will do it.
! Erwin Schnad of Garyowen
is shure a swell fela. Have yu
ever met him? Friendlyer than
heck. Not long ago he ate din
ner with Gov. Bricker and the
So. Dakota governor and 3 U. S.
senators. He has never Sed a
werd about it. Here is how it
was. Erwin was invited to eat
dinner at the Charley. Miller
spread at Parkman. He ate and
got lip and asked the foreman
who them cattle buyers were
sittin' next to Miller. The fore
man tole him that they were
only Gov. Bricker of Ohio and
the So. Dakota governor and a
few U. S. Senator's. Erwin sed:
"Oh heck, I thot they were
some big shot cattle buyers"
Erwin is l of the most suck
seSsfull drylanders in Big Horn
county, and a real good Repub-
llcan democrat-in case you
don't alredy knoe it.
FOR SaIe-One l2-gauge shot
gun with 3 smells, $l2.UO-one
dollar a gage. FOR trade-lU
sixteen gage shells for ~ tWel-
We gage smells, even Steven.
l set OF harness, $2U.UO. Bet
tern any $40 set l ever seen.
l 2U-lnch horse collar, $500.
Cheap enough for any horses
neck.
herd that Mr.. and Mrs. Har-
ry Grunder have got their sign
nearly ready. 1t reeds: Cali
tornia Here We Come" They
have another sign put in a
frame Sayin' Montana, Mon
tana, I Love You" Harry and
Mrs. Grunder have been around
Hardin 8 yeers and they have
done purity good. I was goin' to
their sale which I think is on
the 10th of Nov. I'll betcha
that there will be a lotta good
buys. Whenever I bid on eny-
thing the people outbid me.
They say if it's Werth that
much to Mike dts werth more
to them.
WANTED-About 40 tons of
good oats, 80 tons of barley.
Will trade you furniture for it.
or will give the-e-e cash.
For Sale-One 1880 Model A
Ford 2-door coupe. Front tires
new, 3 others good. This is a
swell buy for eny farmer. Yu
kin go in snow with this where
yur fancy car will stall. No
money needed if yu have a COW
and a big calf-oats, barley or
sheep.
So far it looks like sheep and
cattle feeders are gonna be few.
The fewer the feeders the cheap
er the hay and grain. My idee
on feedin' with this yeer's high
prices is yu lose either way
and I didn't say eyether like
the show and sissy people say.
I don't like to tell bad news
but a coupla weeks ago some
fur-covered animule killed 40
nice chickens belonging to Mrs.
Slim Slatterv. right here in
town. Prowlin animules are
gettin' holder all the time with
this ammunition scarcity on.
And speakin' of ammunition,
the soldiers and marines out
in the South PasSific have
changed that popular song to
Praise the Lord, the ammuni-
ton passed me-"
