The Kenosha barbed wire fence is
proving a great success and the man
ufacture thereof bids fair to become
one of the prominent industries of the
city. A company composed of solid
business men has been organized and
preparations for manufacturing on a
large scale have been commenced.

SPIRIT LAKE, Iowa, Aug. Is, 1878.
EDITOR TELEGRAPH:
DEAR Strive have just finished
harvesting in this country. The wheat
yield will be light. An abundant crop
was expected, and would have been re-
allied had it not been for those few
extreme hot days which almost cooked
the formation. The oat crop is simply
immense; seventy-fve bushels per acre
would probably represent the facts fair
ly. Corn looks very we'll indeed and will
be out of all danger of frost in a few
more days. Flax, potatoes, buckwheat,
&C., will all yield handsomely, and as
a community we are all very well sat-
isfied with our country. We have
neither seen nor heard Of grasshoppers
since a year ago last spring when the
few that were not destroyed by the
Parasite, left in disorderly manner
for parts unknown. An era of pros
perity is surely ours. The northwest
has received thousands Of sturdy hus-
bandmen the past spring and summer,
who will soon subdue and utilize the
fertile soil. IA very few years more and
northwestern Iowa farms will all be
developed. The soil is good, the eli
mate healthy, land is cheap, and those
making their homes here now. are not
getting entirely out of civilization. We
have an excellent class of people all
over these broad prairies. They who
had nerve and independence enough to
raise them over the sli ght shadow of
leaving old scenes and associates. 1t
is mistake that people come west be-
cause necessity compels, hence the in
telligent, happy and prosperous COM
munities noticeable here. A few words
only in regard to our beautiful village
of Spirit Lake. It is fast becoming,
in fact it has become, great Summer
resort. Boating, fishing and hunting
in connection with good Accommodations
at reasonable rates has a great attrac-
ton for those seeking pleasure during
the warm months. We are not afraid
to make positive assertions on the sub
ject. Our lakes with their scenery are
unequalled, and are being appreciated
by wealthy men Of ST. Louis and other
large cities. I am interested in this
country, because I think it has merit
and would like to see lots of good peo-
pie come here to live. Yours &c.,
