j. g. Laxson and the writer we're
up In Dayton township last week
looking oyer the country and we
found much to admire. Crops are
looking fine everywhere. We drove
over to the river east from the Brown
school house where we eound U. T.
Sando and his sons all busy. The
scene along the river at that point is
charming. In a four mile ride west
from Mr.. Sando's the country looked
exceedingly attractive. Small grain
never looked better and many had
their corn all in. Flowers were peep
ing up along the roads, the birds
were singing and the sweet little
meadowlark piped his notes as we
drove along. The charm of budding
nature is sweet but nature in bloom
Is sweeter.
