were not only the colorfu1 buffalo
berries, but on the slopes behind
them were chol1echerries and black
currants, still miraculously attached
to their bushes. 1t was a luscious
vision in Eastern Montana where I
had never seen fruit grow. tasted
a buffaloberry, and my mouth be-
haved as if / had bitten into a
lemon.

won't taste so puckery,' Walt prom
ised. and he was right. They were
delicious.

a heavily weighted bush, and Walt
bent a branch and whipped off the
berries with stick. It was that
easy! Some of the berries rolled off.
Never mind them" advised Walt.

tened back to the canyon, still feel |
ing like a prospector who has struck
it rich, and began to whip berries
off branches with vigor.
It showed intermittently but it
was surprisingly warm in the cam
yon. My imagination wandered to
the days when Indians and early
settlers, homesteadeEs like Waits and
Elton's folks, gathered this rare fruit
thankfully. In less than three hours
l had both containers. full, and it
began to snow seriously. Mindful
of the gumbo roads must travel,
carried my treasure to the car and
left the canyon.
Elton Impressed
When / got home it was showing
too hard for me to take the second
step, washing the berries Elton
arrived and was impressed by the
quantity 1 had gathered. I said
ought to go back the next day and
get some chokecherries and cur
rants After l had washed the buff
faloberries, said, would.
The next day was near freezing,
but / took the berries out to the
yard, dumped them in washtub,

and began washing them as Walt
had directed. used gallons of
water. / sorted berries from wash
tub to canning kettle to lard can
and back. The leaves rose to the
top and sluiced them off, but there
always seemed to be more leaves
and tiny branches The water was
icy.
Elton passed by and sympathetic
cally advised me to give away half
the berries. The next trip through
the yard he facetiously asked me if
didn't want to go back and get
come more. l confessed that /
would be satisfied with what had
if could just get them clean. FL
nally they were, and took them out
of the freezing atmosphere into my
warm kitchen.
The third step began with searcl
for recipe. No one had ever heard
of the buffa1oberry, apparently, so
1 decided to use the recipe for cur
rant jelly, as both were supposed
to be loaded with pectin. I mashed
half of the berries and filled dish
pan with them to cook them. then
seated myself on a kitchen stool
with the makings of a brand new
jelly bag. Such abundance de-
served one. AS soon as it was
ready, scooped the cooked fruit
into it. Elton brought board an6
hung the full bag from it between
the stove and workshelf.

1T WAS A threatening October
day when / started out to gather
my first buffaloberries. Elton had
used every argument to. discourage
the excursion, as he had to go to
Miles City with a load of wheat
and was afraid winter might arrive
before he got back. His friend,
Walter, had come over the night
before to tell us there were berries
going to waste in canyon on his
ranch, and I felt I should at least
go over and see if any could ac-
tually still be growing so late in
the year.
remembered to take along an
old shower curtain to whip berries
into as Walt said this was the way
the Indians did. A few snowflakes
banged against the windshield as I
left, and when 1 drove up to Waits
ranch house, is miles from home,
it was splitting snow. Walt went
with me to show me the canyon and
how to gather the berries.
We drove down steep incline
to the grassy floor of the canyon,
sheltered on all sides by steep walls.
As the car stopped. I saw the ber-
ries-bushes laden with them, max
ing blood-red sp1ashes against the
bare canyon! There were millions
of them!
