&C. E. Stcddard, who lives four
miles north of Manchester, is one of
Iowa farmers who moved to that
locality last spring from Tama, Iowa.
G. E. bought a piece of land that had
no buildings to speak of so that be
was considerably handicapped for
the first season. He erected buildings
and put in about 200 acres Of crop,
having to pillow 100 acres. He says
that he did well enough last year;
that he made a living and has put
his farm in shape to do business 10
in the future. One item of revenue
that cuts considerable figure on the
Stoddard farm is the sale of eggs,
which last year amounted to $4,000
q. +. says that be does not want tC
go back to Iowa. He received a
letter from a brother-iu law recently
in which he complained of a great
fall of snow. Twenty four inches
fell in "a hours; roads are almost i'm.
passible, and the proper care Of stock
is d hardship to the farmer. Mr.
| Stoddard further stated that there
would be a great move from Talna
vicinity to Kingsbury county in the
spring. Already there are enough
people to fill Ii cars with chattels
nine of which are to be uuloaded at
Manchester. One of those to come
10 the spring is Clyde Hammond, who
bought the old Manchester farm
south of the town of that name. Let
them come. If the new contingent
from Tama are like those already
here. it will be a valuable acquisition
to the west end of the county.
