Letter From Watson Childs.
Marshall, MINI. !

EDITORS DEMoCRAT:-I received
last weeks paper at Republic, Iowa, for
which please accept thanks. A very
great change has been made in that
section, between the Cedar and Wapsie
since my first trip on foot in 1855. Then
the "few and far between" dwellings
were small and built of small logs or
l may say poles, not much larger than
stove pipe. Their stables were of the
same material and shingled with
prairie hay. Now find but one log
house that was standing at that uime.
They have all disappeared, and in their
stead and in many other places are
nice frame houses painted up in good
style, and nearly every farm has the
"big red barn." But these are not the
only evidences of industry and thrift,
as on going into these barns we find
they are stored full of hay and grain.
From 1000 to 1000 bushels of oats on
a farm is the rule, which with the cattle
nOgs ana sheep, make tnls, ike Otner
parts of the Hawkeye State, wealthy
country. They have here machine
for lifting out of the ground those large
boulders of which we have few in
Delaware county. ! judge some of the
rocks taken out with these lifters
would weigh five or six tons, compar-
ing them with some weighed several
years ago and put under my barn as
underpining. I spent an afternoon
very pleasantly in the district school of
the same district in which taught just
forty years ago last winter. The old
log house had given way to the frame
house painted outside and in, and fur
nished with modern seats, globe, maps

This being my first visit to this part
of Minnesota am quite favorably i'm
pressed with the general appearance of
the town and immediate surrounding
country. This town is on the Great
Northern r. R. and has population
of some 1900 and like Manchester ex-

are quite number of fine residences
and more are being built. Several
stores where large stocks of goods are
carried and Touring mill, of a capacity
of 400 bis. of flour every "a hours. Con-

a fair degree of prosperity.
