K. Tire Weld Co, G, R. (Red) Jarrard, Hills Flat, Grass ae Cody, Wyoming. Most people think of ‘ol, W. F. (Buffalo Bill)) Cody as a \wi'd-west . slayer of the sturdy beast “he was named for and as an Indian fighter of the first water. Few realize that behind that great man’s dash and lay a° mind that planned an empire—the building of the West. His ability as a showman: as '‘proven by the tremendous appeal of his Wild West Show that toured this country and Europe, was also used to promote interest and ‘fira imaginations for the development of ‘his old stamping grounds into a rich cat le-! raising country and agricultural gargen spot. Founded by Buffalo Bill in 1900, this town began as the center of the . irrigation project he started. Subse-' quent development by the U. S. Reclamation Service added the Shoshone irrigation system and the dream of; that early pioneer has materialized. A hard and unkind: country in his gay it is a ‘beautiful vacation land now, as well as a successful ranch-. ing and farming district, Instead of} tracking down buffalo for an empty, Jarder as they did in tthe old days, sportsmen flock here now’ to bag wild game. Instead of ranching that was always serious business decades ago, the present vast cattle industry igs dotted with dude ranches offering the tenderfoot a itry at a ‘brone and a few gulps of fresh, mile high air. In Buffalo Bill's day the’ only things®*that flew around wore feathers, but now a modern airport at the edge of town receives regular . visits from sleek airplanes. . jin long gone winters “meant. easily Valley, Califo: “nia. The snow that covered the ground -. followed trails of food on the hoof, . but now the snow means skiing and winter sports. Cody was first built of logs, ithe only remaining. relic of the town’s early ‘history is the very interesting log cabin museum housing ' Buffalo Bill’s medals and trappings. but Placer Fair Entertainer It. s'iands a few blocks from: modern buildings that went up as a result of Bill’s efforts to colonize ithe area. But all this doesn’t mean that the! town has lost all its frontier flavor. ; It’s still a Western town populated i by 8.000 Westerners who nightly hold a noisy rodeo—not for the benefit of tourists, but just for the. fun . of it. Of course the Fourth of July's . annual Cody Stampede is a big, ripsnorting rodeo and show that brings and entertains visitors by the thousands. . Although Buffalo Bill’s remains! are entombed on distant Lookout Mountain in Colorado, the town of ‘Cody is ever conscious of its famous frontier-secout founder. It is lamentable tha’ his ‘grave doesn’t overlook the finished results of his tireless efforts. In fact, persistent rumors have it that early residents of Cody threatened to quietly tunnel. into Lookout Mountain, steal Bill’s casket and place it in Cody, where they figured it rightfully belonged. But the: tomb was heavily reenforced! with concrete to forestall any such. pian. However, even though the tomb remains distant from Cody, Buffalo. Bill's memory is forever preserved Nevada City from the Foothill League in the name of this town He sounte pd. . We're Next Time Pl Buy Tires From The O. K. 0. K. TIRE : G. R.
