Opis

Not even Slim Jim Watkins can have a ranch of his own without a brand. Will
he ever get a brand of his own? Will he ever get a ranch of his own? Maybe he
will, because, after all, he does have a "can do" attitude.
Using his "can do" attitiude, Slim Jim Watkins is able to do
things that other cowboys cannot or will not. When all the other cowboys will
say that a job was too tough, that no one could possibly do it, then Slim Jim
Watkins would pull up his britches and say, "Shoot, I can do that "
Slim Jim Watkins' positive frame of mind allows him to earn a bang-tailed
bronco, a dozen Longhorn cattle, and a little spread of land 'round San Antone'
way. He has everything he needs to have a ranch of his own... except a brand.
Will he be able to create an original brand so that he is able to have his own
ranch? Hmm...he does have a "can do" attitude...
