Westward Bound.

| Never lii the history OF Iowa has
there been such u spirit manifested to
change locaities--tn west or south to
grow up with the country. lnfact il
seams that our people have become per
fectly infatuated with the glowing re-
ports from the new and undevel0ped
regions of the north, south, and west
| The convenience OF travel, and the
ease with which we can change from
one locality to another, coupled with
the reported cheap lands, all have q
tendency to create spirit of unrest
and cause removals.
If u man in Iowa possess farm or
home, especially western Iowa, and is
out of debt, he is certainly crazy to
wish to make change Here can be
produced in abundance, successfully,
everything found in this latitude, with
less labor than any other country in
the world. Here we have rich lands,
pure water, beautiful streams, good
health, with splendid schools, churches
and pleasant surroundings, why, then,
should any desire change of location /?
1t is true that there may be certain
contingencies requiring change. If
one desires to increase his acres, or if
they wish to change from agriculture
to stock raising on lare scale, or if q
higher altitude is necessary on account
weak lungs, OF if they wish to engage
IN mining a mountain region might be
an incentive to move, but lacking these
no country on the globe can compare
with beautiful Iowa. Here we have
richer land, raise bigger crops, mild
winters, pleasant summers, and lovely
falls, nice people, beautiful woman,
smart children and most of them, good
fruit, bigger hogs and finer cattle than
in other country under the sun.
1t is true that land in Iowa has ad
vancsd in price during the past year,
and some have concluded to sell here
and seek cheaper lands, but if any here
owns good farm why leave it to Sc
cure less valuable one lacking all the
Iowa advantages? A large number of
those who make the change, will, no
doubt, often look back tothe beautiful
Iowa home they left behind them, and
wonder why they made the mistake.
II any expect to find country this
side of great eternity that is without
some objection to it, such person will
never realizs their expectations. Per
lection is not q reality, but when we
find country SO near perfection as
Iowa, better try to be satisfied to let
"well enough alone
For the young man who have no re-
al estate here and who wish to own a
home. perhaps a cheaper field would
be advisable, but for those who have
endured the hardships of pioneer life,
and who are we'll advanced in age, tn
now pull up stakes to go to new er
and cheaper country make the mistake
of their lives.
