HELENE BUEGE88, READER.
Heading the Helene Burgees String
Letter From Sunbeam, Colo.
To The Saint Jo Tribune.
Sunbeam, Colo-, June 20, 1919.
Just a few words from Sunbeam,
Colo. As I have only been here
since the 20th of May, have not
had time to see very much to
writo about. We have been very
busy putting our little crop in.
We have ten acres in corn, cane,
feterita, i>otatoes and all kinds
of garden stuff. We planted
some on tho second and third of
June and it was snowing and
and sleeting at the time. But
the stuff is up and looking pret
ty good.
The soil on our place is deep
heavy sand. We have no moun-
tains on our land; just cedars
and hills with cedar for wood,
and lots of it, too. We can culti-
vate the top of those hills, as the
soil is good. Sage brush—lots
of 14. But the more sage brush,
the better your land is. We set
fire to a |»tch the other day and
it burned like a coal oil rag. It
burns tho ground clean where it
is thick enough. When we cut it
we are through with it, as the
roots do not amount to anything.
We do not have any running wa-
ter on out place, but neighbors
tell us we will not have to dig
very deep for water. We haul
water four and a half miles;
make two trips a week and never
drink hot water, as the climate
is cool. The sun is pretty hot
during the day but the wind is
cool all the time and at night we
sleep under twoquilts-and such
peaceful sleep, too, I have not
seen any grave yards yet; do not
even hear of such things out
here.
We went to the saw mill two
days ago to get lumber for our
house and saw lots of big pine
trees too large to go in any coixu
mon door. The saw mill is I &
cated on Douglas mountain. We
didn’t go to see the bromide
mine, as we didn’t have time.
With best wishes to all,
Mrs. Will Parks.
