[[underlined]] Aug-26-28 [[/underlined]] [[Rivaud??]] at Idaho Falls

writing up reports and collecting a few specimens in the uncultivated areas.  Found Thomomys & [[Pirodepus?]] & Eutamias pictus common across river. Jack rabbits abundant.  

Several light frosts have killed the tomato vines and cut some of the patches of sweet corn and in places wilted the alfalfa and singed the potatoes.

In other places the corn and potatoes are untouched by frost.

No serious damage is done, but such frosts preclude the raising of melons, tomatoes and many tender vegetables.

Apples seem not to be injured by the frosts.
