" FROM INDIAN LAKE.

l#&t1 -. Eg-y,: EA1NDAANe AAAE1, April 1910.
EDITOR ADVANCE: ] saw in a late,
number Of your paper communication
from my friend A. l.. Haggard, which
had quite the right sort Of ring, but not
hardly enough volume. He, should
have, gone further and shown that
there are persons here who are entire
ly unprincipled iii taking the relief
sent by the good people Of the Eastern
States: There are three or four of my
acquaintance who raised last year. i'll
the aggregate, fourteen or sixteen hum
dred bushels Of grain, and it appears
that they draw the most ratiOns., I
agree with those who say our town did
not need help, yet they got it. No one
wlll-deny chat there are 4 goodly num-
Der of destitute in the county, and
there will Ike for years to come unless
this county proves very different from
any l ever saw. In 1857, I was living
in the county. Of Delaware, Iowa.
Then we had i great deal worse times
than we have HAD here. Ihave known
families who lived OH squash straight
for a whole week. Tea or coffee was
out of the question: The grasshoppers
came i'll the shape of chinch bugs, and
lucky was the field of wheat that es-
capped their ravages. l have known
many Il field destroyed in one night.
Well-to-to farmers had to take to their
johnny-cake, but they stuck it out,
most of them, and now they are all
right. l have been told by men who
lived in the State of Illinois before the
days of railroads who had to haul their
grain nearly Il hundred miles to Chi
cago or Milwaukee, ut is to 50 cents 4
buslel, and after paying expenses cone
out i'll debt. One man told me his
father went to market with his wheat,
and after taking out the expenses he
came out five cents III debt. I could
cite many cases of as much distress as
we have had here, when boys and girls
were glad to get their home spun suits.
But we are Il progressive people. am
Informed that there is one township in
this county which brags on having got
clothing enough through the relief to
last them several years. Is this so?
What is the effect of SO much relief
1t tends to give us II bad name. I ask
ed one of my Swede neighbors the 9TH
er day if there would not lie quite I'LL
immigration of SWedes here. this
Spring. lie said no. The reason he
gave was that they are afraid to come.
Every Sabbath ut church from one to
two letters are read asking for relief.
and for him and his frlends to leave
this country.
hope no one will take this letter as
personal. Let us all do our best to,
economic and worry through and in a
few years we can have all the Injuries
of any country. II. BRAYTON.

however, held Pegg to answer i'll Sep
