A Bit of Short Grass Philosophy on a Sagebrush Ranch
A reflective piece from a sagebrush rancher with a wry voice describes a life divided into things we like to do, must do, and ought to do. He recalls gathering land long ago, notes changing public opinion, and paints vivid scenes of Pumpkin Creek, rugged hills, and fossil-rich mountains. The narrator jokes about oil dreams, food shortages from grasshoppers, and hopes for an easy future while clinging to a steady, plain-spoken humor.

Care of Storage Batteries in Winter
Winter storage requires removing the battery from the car and placing it in a basement to prevent water loss. Fully charge before storage and keep the cells topped with distilled water to avoid iron-contaminated water from city mains. Recharge monthly, either in the car from the generator or at a garage, to prevent lead sulphide formation and plate warping.
