The ride to the ranch was delightful.

All along the road large fields of corn were seen, much of it (according to the farmers who were in the party,) will make a full crop. Grass, alfalfa, timothy, and the orchards along the route of ten miles, all looked splendid. One of the pleasantest features of the day was the sight-seeing on this large and thoroughly-managed farm, under the supervision of H. B. Miller.

Ouite a time was spent at the stables, and the fine thoroughbred stock received much praise from the party. Towards evening a crowd of young folks, from this city, appeared at the bank of the creek, watched the "fishermen," and made it obligatory for a "banker" to keep in the water, much against his will. Luckily, however, a gunny sack handed to him, which he donned about his portly waist, and amidst the plaudits of the crowd, he marched to supper. About two hundred pounds of fish were brought to town and distributed among the friends of the "piscatorial admir ers." we had a good time, wno wouldn't with such a jolly crowd as W. W.
