John and I went to the Spring Canion [Canyon] Ranch.
We met Lew and Mr Amos there. We look up
the stock. Found ouly two missing of the cattle
one is a little black heifer of Lews the other I
think is mine. They all look pretty well and
some extremely well and the feed is
good and the grasshoppers pretty thick so I
dont know but they may hurt the feed
before fall.
