GEORGE RICHMOND HAMS&#13;
&#13;
~ lr?_f&#13;
&#13;
T~elve year ·old Geqrge Hams and his friend Lee Canfield stood&#13;
beside the road staring intently into the distance. Even though the&#13;
machine they :were watching was still far down the road, the boys coul_d&#13;
hear its rhyt.hr:J.ic pop-pop-popping as it approached. A lone figure in&#13;
-the ~uto sat very straight, holding stiffly to the steering bar. The&#13;
boys were excited because they were encountering their first automobile. They would have been more excited had they known they were about&#13;
to see their first auto wreck. The driver, approaching at a fast clip,&#13;
was unaware of a stretch of eeep sand in the road, The hard front&#13;
wheels sunk into the sand; the steering bar jerked from the driver 1 s&#13;
hands; and as the boys stared .in fascination, the auto promptly capsized.&#13;
Hastings, a town of about 4,000 in southern Michigan ,was a good place&#13;
to live in 1898. Located mid-way between the cities of Chicago and&#13;
Detroit, it was an especially good place for a curious teen-age boy to&#13;
observe the mechanization and scientific revolution occurring in America.&#13;
The town was surrounded by rolling, forested hill s with rnai;iy clear&#13;
streams running thI'ough the country-side. A person c ould hardly travel&#13;
a mile in any direction without finding a pond or lake. George was&#13;
born there on October 22, 1886, the son of Martha and Willian Hams.&#13;
William was a carpenter, then started a grocery and bakery and did well&#13;
with&#13;
these businesses. 11 We al~ays had plenty to eat, 11 George remembers,&#13;
1&#13;
' beca:use many of the farmers who traded in the store di dn 't have any&#13;
cash and would pay for their supplies with meat or fruit or other&#13;
garden produce. Our meat house was always _full of hams and turkeys.&#13;
The Hams bought a summer cabin on Gunn Lake near Hastings. George,&#13;
his brother William, and their mother spent the summers at the lake.&#13;
It was a grand life for a boy. The long summer days were occupied with&#13;
fishing, swimming, boating and playing with friends. On week-ends&#13;
~,r. Hams would travel out to the lake in an open buggy with an umbrella&#13;
top.&#13;
.&#13;
As fall approached, the family moved back to town for school&#13;
enrollment . Mr. Hams bought wood and set the boys to splitting it. 11i-'te&#13;
mainly used maple, oak and beech for firewood. Even after we installed&#13;
a coal furnace, mother used wood in t he cook stove. 11 Every fall the&#13;
Hams gathered walmuts , butternuts and hazelnuts. George liked some&#13;
fun with his nut gathering . After a freeze he liked to climb carefully&#13;
into the branches of a nut tree overhanging a path er lane and wait for&#13;
someone to come along. At the strategic moment he would jump vigorously up and down on the branches and bomb the daylignts out of his&#13;
victims.&#13;
As it is today, winter was a marvelous time for kids. 11We would&#13;
sharpen our skates like razors and race up and down the river or around&#13;
the ponds near town. · If we wanted to ski, we usually ties barrel staves&#13;
to our feet; or if we wanted something better, we took elm wood to the&#13;
engineer at the furnlture factory. He steamed and shaped the wood.&#13;
Then we tacked old shoes to the boards and had a pretty fair set of&#13;
skis. Each fall Mr. Hams traded supplies to one of the farmers for&#13;
ten gallons of wine which he kept in a barrel in the cellar. What&#13;
boy could resist sampling it? George surely didn 1 t. One day he and&#13;
Lee Canfield sneaked into the cellar and sampled and sampled and&#13;
sampled. 11 We got sick, 11 George remembers.&#13;
George has good memories of school days. · He was an honor student&#13;
most of the time. He admits to getting into mischief (some of which he&#13;
&#13;

_ ' • won I t tell a bout), but does a dmit to playing ''Penny ot\. a Board with&#13;
'1 greenhorns who moved into Hastings. To play "Penny oft a Board" George&#13;
· would bring out a pile of sand on a shingle, push a penny into the pile&#13;
and s et it on the ground. Severa l youngsters, including the greenhorn&#13;
lined up a ways from the pile anq on the count of three raced to see&#13;
who could get the penny. Actually , the innocent-looking sand pile was .&#13;
more than sand. It was a pile of very fresh cow dung or other manure&#13;
covered with sand. As you can guess, .the greenhorn was allowed to&#13;
win and "Wound up with more than h e coul~ handle.&#13;
·&#13;
In 1905' GeoI'ge's father sold out i n Michigan and moved to Lake&#13;
Arthur, New Mexico, south of Rosi·rnll where he bought a hardware and&#13;
lumber business. Since George had only one year of high scheol left&#13;
to finish , he was allowed to remain in Hastings. After high School&#13;
George was apprenticed to a pharmacist in Grand Rapids. He rented a&#13;
small apartment nearby and began his training . George dated a pretty&#13;
little girl named Amy Belle Cope who came into the drugstore occasionally.&#13;
Amy wo±-ked at the Fox Typewriter Co . in GrandRapids. On dates George&#13;
and&#13;
attended silent mcvies, burlesque shows and the circus (AI::ty&#13;
especially liked the side shows) . Vaudevulle s hows were $.35 in the&#13;
e-yening and ~t.15 in the afternoon . They made frequent visits to ice&#13;
cream parlors, ra.rely to reataur ants. George and Amy were married in&#13;
1910 . In 1911 Vi ola was· borJt. She was their only child.&#13;
&#13;
Amy&#13;
&#13;
The Hams made occasional trips to visit his parents in New 1-foxico.&#13;
Cars had become quite common, but good roads were rare . They have&#13;
vivid memories of trips across the plains . vI'nile crossir,ig Oklahoma on&#13;
one t rip the Hams came t o a region ,,r hich had been soaked with heav-.1&#13;
rain. 'ltJhen t hey got bogged at the bottom of a hil l, Amy agreed to&#13;
get out and pu sh. Once the car got going, George couldn 1 t stop. Not&#13;
only was Amy s plattered with mud f r om head to foot , she also had to&#13;
walk all the way up the hill through deep mud to r each the car. Another&#13;
time the Hams had completely bogged dm,m in a mud hole and were feel ing&#13;
hopeless until four young men on motorcycles appeared. The cyclists&#13;
got off their machines, walked over to the car(one to each fender)&#13;
picked the car up·with the Hams s till inside, set it on firm ground&#13;
and left.&#13;
In 1920 when Viola was about 9, Amy contractei tuberculosis. The&#13;
doctors recommended that she go to a dry climate like new Hexico for&#13;
treatment. A year later she was pronounced cured •. If 10 year old&#13;
Viola h~dn't asked f or an i ce cream cone a s t hey passed through&#13;
Hagerman , N.H., on t heir ·way back: holile to Grand Rapids) the Hams family&#13;
might still be in Michigan. George stopped, went in to the drug store&#13;
for t he ice cream and discovered the store was for sale. He bought it&#13;
on the spot.&#13;
Life in Hagerman on the legendary Pecos River was quite different&#13;
from life in Grand Rapids. The Harns bought a place near the Russel&#13;
Ranch and became good friends of the Russel family, who proved to be&#13;
invaluable help when most any problem arose. George_got a few cows&#13;
to raise. When it came time for one of the calves to be weaned from&#13;
its mother, Amy had trouble. Mrs. Russel, who weighed about 200 lbs.,&#13;
came over to help. She stepped astride the shoulders of the calf,&#13;
grasped its head and ears and forc ed its head into the bucket. "If it&#13;
gets balky any more , just do that, 11 Hrs. Russel advised. The next day&#13;
Amy decided to try force feeding t he calf. It had not occurred to her&#13;
·tha.t a differencl:! in weight of 110 lbs. would matter. Ai-ny, who weighed&#13;
only 90 lbs . got astride the calf and got the ride of her life. Any had&#13;
&#13;
�lf&#13;
as good a sense of humor about this as about the nud.&#13;
George O!:Jerated the .drug store in Ha.german- from 1921 till 1946.&#13;
Though he preferred not to be,he was considered a counter doctor by&#13;
many of the residents of the area. George and An.y seweo. up more peo:ol~&#13;
than they like to remember. none man had such -8. large k..""lif e wound~&#13;
we could 2ee his heart beating. 11 As in all parts of the country duriI!g&#13;
the great depression, many transients ca::ie through Hagernan. 11We never&#13;
refused anyone a prescription, money or no Boney.&#13;
One fanily passing&#13;
through asked for medicine for a siclc baby. Years later we received.&#13;
a letter from them with money for the prescription.I?&#13;
Viola moved to Ignacio in the 1940' s. 1'H1en the Hams cane to visit,&#13;
the green trees and flowing streams brought back memories of 1-!ichiean.&#13;
They had always cissed the green countryside while living on the dry&#13;
!)lains. In 19l+6George and .A:my bought, 40 acres north of Ignacio 5 reI11odeled&#13;
the house and spent many hapryy years here.&#13;
&#13;
Amy died in 1970,&#13;
&#13;
George is now 88 years old.&#13;

�THE Al-~RICAN CIDER BOOK&#13;
&#13;
v'1'he Story of A."Ilerica's Natu ral Beverage" is t he sub-title of&#13;
a book by Vrest Orton.&#13;
Contents of the book include:&#13;
1. A Short History of Cider&#13;
2. General Me thods of Cider Making&#13;
( Old Time a.'t1d Viodern Principles)&#13;
3. How to l{ake Cider in the Home&#13;
4. Recipes for Cider in Beverages and in Cooking&#13;
&#13;
The book has prints of old paintings en the subjects of apples&#13;
an'd cider-making and photographs of cider-making equipment.&#13;
One point Hr. Ortan emphasizes is that anyone who expects to&#13;
produc e fine quality cider nust use clean~ top quality apples, not&#13;
&#13;
damaged, bruised or overripe leftovers.&#13;
&#13;
He explains the difference&#13;
&#13;
between sweet cider, hard cider "nd apple juice and how to p r oduce&#13;

�COMPETING WITH HATURE INVOLVES A BIT OF RISK&#13;
Obviously, lronen can take a cue frm::i. nature~ Surely, there rcust ha':~&#13;
been some sort of rr:essage in the recent news from Englcw.7.d, when it un.s&#13;
reported that sea gulls attacked. a lady visiting a bird sanctuary. They&#13;
!'1istook her new hatr style for a nest. A...'1d a1)parent~-Y no bird likes to&#13;
see its nest on the move. '!.'he lady clearly had two choices after that.&#13;
She could stay away frot: t'•ird sanctuaries, or she could vj_si t her hairdresser and make herself less gullible,&#13;
