Hi there - Winnie Griggs here. I was looking through my handy-dandy 'This Day In History' calendar a few days ago and discovered that 150 years ago today the Western Union Telegraph Co. linked the eastern and western networks of telegraph systems at Salt Lake City, Utah. For the first time in our nation’s history nearly instantaneous communication between Washington D.C and San Francisco, CA was possible. I'd heard quite a bit about the Transcontinental Railroad but nothing about the Transcontinental Telegraph so I decided to do a little digging and then share with you something of what I learned. The first transcontinental telegraph was actually sent by the chief justice of California, Stephen Field, and was sent to President Abraham Lincoln. In the historic missive, Field predicted that the newly established communication venue would help ensure that the western states would remain loyal to the Union during the Civil War. A little of the history behind this historic event: An efficient telegraph system was first developed in the 1830s and in the ensuing years spread with phenomenal speed. By 1850 lines covered most of the eastern part of the country as well as the fast growing territory of California. When California achieved statehood in 1850 it became the first state not contiguous with the rest of the country. Almost immediately there was a major push to connect this new state with the rest of the country via communication and travel services. In 1860, Congress passed the Pacific Telegraph Act and awarded a contract to Hiram Sibley, president of the Western Union Company. Mr. Sibley took the contract and formed a consortium between his company and telegraph companies in California to undertake the commission. The task involved building lines to connect the system at the western-most edge of Missouri and the one at Carson City, Nevada. Sibley formed the Pacific Telegraph Co. to construct the eastern leg and the California telegraph companies consolidated into the Overland Telegraph Company to build the western leg. The two lines would eventually meet at Salt Lake City, Utah. Most of 1860 was spent collecting materials for the project, and construction began in earnest in 1861. Right from the start there were significant problems along the way with provisioning the construction teams. Glass insulators and wire had to be shipped to San Francisco by sea and then transported to the construction sites in the west by wagon - this included a trek over the Sierra Nevada. Finding sources for telegraph poles was also a challenge in the mostly treeless plains areas as well as the deserts of the Great Basin. The line from Omaha in the east made it to Salt Lake city first, arriving on October 18, 1861. The Transcontinental connection was completed six days later when the line from Carson city joined it on October 24, 1861. A side result of this momentous accomplishment that happened almost immediately was that it made the Pony Express obsolete. On October 26th, a scant two days after the lines were joined, this adventurous, dedicated relay mail service which had previously provided the fastest means of communication between the western and eastern United States, officially closed. Just as often happens today, the new technology made their jobs obsolete.

I'm always intrigued by new ways of using technology to improve farming, and with the latest buzz being about sustainability and environmental responsibility, I did a little research into some new trends. What I found was pretty interesting, and I'm still learning and trying to understand some of it (a scientist I am not). I'm pretty intrigued by two ideas and interestingly enough they are on different ends of the spectrum - one is taking ranching into the future, and the other is returning to grassroots ideas. So cool idea #1 - Have you ever heard the saying "Making honey out of dog #$*&"? Now you can make electricity from refuse - specifically manure. Manure makes gas, which is then converted into electricity. Methane never smelled so good. If you take a look at this ranch's site, you'll see how they use the manure from their cows to create enough electricity to completely power their own operation - and then some. There's been a lot of development in this area over the last few years; I hope other Canadian operations will soon follow suit! As Spring Creek puts it: When you work with a live inventory that keeps eating and growing everyday, challenges are a fact of life; they also present a heap of opportunity. Case in point, cattle produce manure; crop production results in organic waste...It simply makes sense to renew the resources that sustain our family and community - today and well into the future. I'm guessing this is a pretty expensive venture to set up, and yes there are manufacturing considerations for fuel cells etc. but one would hope there would also be grants available to assist. What a renewable resource! Everybody poops! Holy Cow! The other cool idea is one I came across researching some areas in Southern Alberta. I found one particular operation that's kickin' it old skool when it comes to methods. The OH Ranch takes conservation very seriously - through a Heritage Rangeland Designation and Conservation Easements. What does that mean? I'm going to snag the explanation from the OH Ranch Site: For the OH Ranch, the public grazing land portions of the Longview and Pekisko sections of the ranch are now designated as heritage rangeland. The heritage rangeland designation helps protect about 10,200 acres (41.28 square kilometers) of public land that has consistently been ranched under grazing leases by the OH Ranch. The designation helps preserve a way of life through the continuation of traditional ranching practices that have stewarded and managed sensitive native prairies in southern Alberta for generations. Conservation easements are voluntary agreements between a private landowner and a qualified land trust which limits the amount and type of development that can occur on a property. Easements are negotiated to preserve the natural character of the land, and its ecological integrity, scenic values and/or scientific and educational potential. The OH Ranch is working with the Nature Conservancy of Canada and Southern Alberta Land Trust Society on conservation easements for their Longview and Pekisko ranch lands, and with Ducks Unlimited on easements for he Dorothy and Bassano ranch lands. The easements will be registered against the land title, ensuring that current and future owners manage he land according to terms of the easements. The other term you'll see here is "traditional ranching practices". Since its inception in 1883, the OH Ranch has always operated using traditional methods. Today, cowboys continue to ride the range, moving cattle and doctoring sick animals in the open field by roping from horseback. While the ranch owns trucks and other equipment, horses are still the primary mode of transportation on the ranch and continue to be used for such tasks as packing fencing supplies, minerals and salt and protein blocks. The OH Ranch is one of the few large cattle outfits in North America which continues to be operated utilizing historic methods. It's really interesting to see ranchers come up with new ways of preserving the environment and staying sustainable in an economic climate that is anything but farmer-friendly.

Winchester (U.S.) Model 1866 Lever Action Rifle (repeater/ breech-loading/ black powder/ cartridge ammunition) Last time we discussed the Winchester 1873 Repeating Rifle. Today, I want to introduce the precursor to that rifle - the Winchester 1866 Repeating Rifle, aka The Yellow Boy. The Yellow Boy got its name because of the shiny brass frame. The design improvements over the original Henry repeating rifle ensured the Yellow Boy’s success. In 1866, Nelson King, an engineer with Winchester Repeating Arms, patented a spring load gate for ease of loading cartridges into the side of a spring-fed, closed-end tube attached under the barrel. The tube held fifteen bullets. Add the one in the chamber and you could pull the trigger sixteen times before reloading. The 1866 Yellowboy lever-action rifle was a marked improvement over the Henry rifle. It was the first true cowboy lever-action rifle, and the first rifle widely carried in a cowboy-style saddle scabbard. Both the “Henry and Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy" rifles found a ready market on the western frontier. The Indians referred to these arms as "many shots," and "spirit gun," which showed a measure of awe and respect for the products of the New Haven-based company. Many warriors were able to obtain these arms for themselves, and more than twenty of them were used against George A. Custer's 7th Cavalry and their single-shot Springfield carbines at the Little Bighorn in June, 1876. Winchester repeaters also found favor with miners, homesteaders, ranchers, lawmen, and highwaymen.” http://www.nramuseum.com/the-museum/the-galleries/the-american-west/case-42-the-guns-that-won-the-west-colt-winchester/winchester-model-1866-lever-act ion-rifle.aspx Winchester produced the Yellow Boy as a musket, a carbine (shorter barrel, often around 19”) and a rifle with a barrel up to 24 ¼”. Some 150,000 Yellow Boys were produced from 1867 to 1892-93. The carbine version of the 1866 Yellowboy was a hit worldwide. Chief Sitting Bull had one; the forces of Benito Juarez used the rifles in Mexico; the Turkish Army used the new Winchester Yellowboy against the Russians; and settlers in the U.S. bought thousands for frontier use. Based on its popularity and performance, the “Yellow Boy” earned the title of "the gun that won the west." The Yellow Boy’s popularity with Native Americans as well as the general shooting public continued its production well after the introduction of the more powerful Model 1873 Winchester began. The Yellow Boy is still popular in Hollywood. The Yellow Boy appeared in many of the Spaghetti Westerns, and, more recently, TomChaney (Josh Brolin) carried one in the new release of True Grit. Winchester chambered it for the .44 Henry Flat round, or a flat nosed bullet. Though it didn’t have a lot of power for a rifle, the Henry Flat had already been proven in combat. The Flat was a rimfire cartridge, which means the hammer strikes the rim of the cartridge, not the center. It wasn’t until near the end of production--when the 1876 Centennial Rifle was being produced--that Winchester developed a .44 center-fire cartridge for the 1866 rifle. Here’s a tidbit that might come in useful in your plot - No dust covers were used on the 1866. This did permit dust and other debris to enter the action, which meant misfiring or not firing at all--which can put the shooter in a real tight spot. Next time -- the gun that started it all: The Henry Repeating Rifle.

129 years ago today Maxwell Henry Aronson was born. Max eventually changed his name to Gilbert M. Anderson, but you would probably know him better by the name of the character he played in over 300 films - Broncho Billy. Anderson was a native of Pine Bluff, Arkansas. He drifted into acting, working first as a photographer’s model and newspaper vendor before moving into work as a vaudeville performer. In 1903 Anderson landed a role in The Great Train Robbery by claiming he could ride a horse like a Texas Ranger. When it turned out he could hardly climb onto a saddle, he was demoted to ‘extra’ and ended up playing several minor parts in the film. The resulting 10 minute movie found an enthusiastic reception from the general public, and Anderson was hooked. He decided to make his career in the fledgling moving picture business. Anderson formed a partnership with old friend George Spoor and together they created the Essanay Company (the name is a play on the first letter of each of their last names “S and A”). This company was destined to become one of the early film industry’s predominant studios. At first Essanay made comedies, but Anderson couldn’t forget the success of The Great Train Robbery and soon he focused on Westerns. But where Anderson really differentiated himself, is that he was one of the first to realize that the public needed a ‘star’ to latch on to, a central character they could really focus on. But at that time (1909) the big names of the stage were reluctant to risk their careers on the new medium of film. So Anderson decided to take on that star role himself, creating the character of Broncho Billy from ideas he collected for the most part from popular dime novels. Anderson wrote and directed most of the movies himself and within five years he had filmed over 300 one or two reel movies featuring his new character. Most of these films were distributed simultaneously in the U.S. and Great Britain. And while Anderson was not especially dashing, audiences liked Broncho Billy for his bravery and virtue. As a side note, Essanay studios also filmed many Charlie Chaplin shorts, including The Little Tramp. In 1915 , Anderson’s final film in the Broncho Billy series, Broncho Billy’s Sentence, was released. He turned to writing for a while and then later attempted a comeback. But by then more dashing actors such as William S. Hart and Tom Mix had taken over the hearts of film viewers. So he made comedies for a while before finally retiring from film. Some of the milestones in his later years:

1958 - Received an honorary Oscar as a "motion picture pioneer, for his contributions to the development of motion pictures as entertainment."
1965 - he made a cameo appearance at age 85 in a modern Hollywood Western called The Bounty Killer, his first talking picture.
1998 - posthumously honored with his image on a U.S. postage stamp.
2002 - posthumously inducted into the National Cowboy Hall Of Fame
Anderson also has a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.

Gilbert Anderson died in his sleep in 1971 at the age of 90 at a sanitarium in South Pasadena, Ca. He was cremated and his ashes were placed in a vault at the Chapel of the Pines Crematory in Los Angeles.
