kind to us in our time of need last year would like to know how we are this year financially i would like to be able to say we are in good shape to show you how dry it is yet i do a little market gardening t had carrots that were worth seeing trying to shove each other out of the ground up to 3tt pounds each those were grown where people washed their cars in summer and the boys hod rafts of old railway ties fifteen to twenty years ago i crap ed a hole 7 or- 8 feet deep in it it has been dry for years sloughs and small lakes are dry where there used to be hundreds or ducks are grain fields lost winter the farmers had to be fed by the government and their animals had to be fed oh what feed ive seen men corning for feed straw sometimes heated and their horses unable to draw a load spring come the snow went away those who had their own seed got it in and one fine snow storm came and dampened the ground beautifully and started the grain growing but the government seed was just arriving it had to be hauled sometlmesqulte a dis tance after the usual red tape which had to be gone through was over with drawn with horses which were not able to do a days work then we had about onesixth enough rain results from 4 to 12 bushels to the acre while that which was in real early went around 25 bushels to the acre the government hnd a tremendous job to get seed and i feed for about 100 000 impoverished i farmers so judge them gently in the drought years ago r b bennett helped i the poor formers with a 5 cento per bushel loan hou did it work the farmers in the south who hod no crop 1 got nothing the turmer in the north i who had from 30 to 40 bushels to the i acre got from 1 50 to ti bonus ii he i hnd given 50c per ncre instead of 5c i per bushel it would hale helped the southern farmer up to 1300 or 400 but do not blame mr bennet he did it for the benl i how nice il ls to get the acton fncf press and htar about old friends who i used to know g5 to 70 years ago may
