The American people seem to
be of a rowing disposition. Farm
ers from Mclean county have dis
posed Of their holdings here and
purchased land in Delaware, and
other eastern states, apd vica versa.
It is not because they are dissatis-
fed with the country. but there is
something that demands a change.
The trend has been westward, but
once in a while you will find q
person. who reverses the trend Of
things. and goes eastward. Aman
who has once lived in the west is
aever satisfied with the eastern
ways. They are toofar behind the
times and tooslow. ~ g9sss.1;
