r. M. Dickey who came some time
ago for the purpose of selling his
farm in Douglas township which he did
one day last week. Reese has purcbas-
ed 800 acres in North Dakota and says
there is no place like the plains of the
northwest where the sun shines bright
all day and where the climate is very
salubrious and where one can get good
nights rest in the summer. As far as
bad winters are concerned ID is all "a
myth as the winters in the northwest
are more pleasant than in Iowa, being
more settled and steady, the thermome-
ter frequently registers very low, bat
the air being less damp than here makes
the cold less noticeable. 1t is also we'll
known fact that sickness is less known
on the northwestern plains than in iowa.
