I II Is next to imposS-
BILE TO write II commun-
lcntion TO a Wood coun-
ty paper without say-
ing something about
ditching. Wood coun-
ty farmers have been
ditched almost to death
and ] am inclined to
think that the farmers
nre u good deal to
blame themselves. A
farmer here who had
no outlet, rather than
consume time and to
save expense hired n
good hand, went to
work early last spring
and made his own out
let, 40 rods of which
had to be dug Through
another mans land,
and In which four 9TH
cr parties were greatly
benefited by the ditch.

the outlet now has II
good crop OF corn grow
Ing where he could not
grow anything before,
while his neighbor who
would not help make
the outlet and who
could have drained his
land at Il triiling cX-
pense, is drowned out

call attention to is this
