laughed at the Curlytops.

And the name Janet gave Uncle Frank's place in fun stuck to it, so
that even the cowboys began calling their ranch "Ring Rosy," instead
of "Circle O."




CHAPTER VI

COWBOY FUN


Into the big wagon piled the Curlytops, Mrs. Martin and Trouble,
while Daddy Martin and Uncle Frank went to see about the baggage.

Jan and Ted looked curiously about them. It was the first time they
had had a chance to look quietly since they had started on the
journey, for they had been traveling in the train nearly a week, it
seemed.

What they saw was a small railroad station, set in the midst of big
rolling fields. There was a water tank near the station, and not far
from the tank was a small building in which a pump could be heard
chug-chugging away.

"But where is the ranch?" asked Janet of her brother. "I don't see
any cows and horses."
