the Westerner, ~ remember once out
in indianapolis meeting q farmer who
took the most cheerful view of damp
ness of anybody T ever saw. asked
him IL they had had much rain down
on the Wabash that spring.
"'Well it has been a little damn he
answered The day before left home
mad to hang up twenty-four of my
ducks. They had got so watcr-soaked
mat they couldn't swim any longer. I
planted my corn in two feet of water,
and 1 don't expect over thirty bushels
TO the acre. My wheat is looking pretty
We'll but the sturgeon and catfish have
damaged 1t considerable. There was
about fifteen minutes sunshine one
day. and thought I would plant my
potatoes. so loaded them on a .scow
and anchored the scow in three feet Of
water. when 1t began to rain again.
i wanted to go down on the bottom
lands next to the Wabash to see IL the
grass was growing for my hay crop,
but my wife said that as we didn't
have any diving bell she'd rather I
wouldn't. should feel kind OF dis
couraged with all the rain, but I've
spent my odd hours of leisure time
and the even ones, too. on account of
staying In out of the wet-building us
an ark. If 1t will only rain another
week or two until get ready to sail,
I'm going to take my family out TO
Missouri by water for a trip to visit our
folks that moved off out there because
they didn't know enough to stay In a
place where they we've comfortable"
