LETTERS FROM OUR READERS

Winner, S. D., March 17, 1918. Dear folks at home; Spring is upon the far West and the farmers are all busy getting ready for the long summer’s toil. They are stirring the soil and will be sowing seed in a few days. We have some fine weather and had a fine rain the other night that puts the ground in fine shape. There will be thousands of bushels of spring wheat sown, also a large acreage of barley and oats, and the cattle are coming in carloads to be distributed over the ranches. The spring birds are coming in and the small lakes are covered with ducks and geese. They are now making the second quota draw here for the boys to go to camp. This letter leaves us all well and hope in finds all the same in Jasper. DAVE PEER. p. S. —Find enclosed $2 for subscription for your paper, and if you have any bargains of other papers with your paper, please favor us with same. — c
