home last Saturday from a three
months visit in the West, which was

Mr. Dietl reports that conditions, in
dustrially and otherwise, are not the
best in the West at present. Employ
ment is not very plentiful and rough
work is done mostly by dagoes. In
this regard conditions have been un-
dergoing change. A few years ago
when he went out there most of this
work was done by the 'chink." He
was superseded by the Jap and now
the macaroni eater is on the job.
New potatoes sold out in that coun-
try at the rate of 1925 per bushel this
summer, he says. and the cost of liv-
ing, generally, is higher than here.
Parts of the country he passed
through on his way home showed
the effects of the drought, but as
soon as he got into Wisconsin the
aspect was more promising, and he
saw bounteful crops of all kinds
along his route in the badger state.
