[[underline]] March 22 [[/underline]] 30° above zero at 8 A.M. 10 above by minimum.  Clear & pleasant.

Started about 8 & reached La Barge at 12 & stopped for dinner, photographed the ranch & valley & a wolf scarecrow on the fence.  Several scarecrows of old clothes on a cross pole were [[strikethrough]] put [[/strikethrough]] on the fence and one on the house to keep wolves from the cattle in the pasture.  Had a good dinner with a nice Mormon family & started on at 1 oclock.  Snowed for an hour or so, having a half inch of fine tracking snow on the crust.  Made leather & wooden glasses to protect my eyes from the glare.  Saw no game except one P.D.  Reached Midway at 5 P.M. & stopped for the night.  Have come 24 miles & it is 17 from here to Big Piney.  Stopped with Mr. Bird who runs the stage line.
