Prairie dogs plan long nap and winter burrow tale
A chatty scene has prairie dogs describing their winter routine and joy in sleeping underground. They explain burying food, building holes, and waking with spring warmth. The story notes the animals’ cheerful nature, the bears’ mixed curiosity, and farmers’ mixed opinions about the holes they leave. It then shifts to a separate estate notice about Mrs. Martha Russell’s will dated June 15 1901, detailing stock dividends to Arthur Kinter, a life estate for his use, and eventual trust for his children with further bequests to cousins and church mission boards.
