Mr.. Cheesman says, without excep-
tion he has had the time of his life.
They drove from Peoria Illinois Sat
urday making the trip home in about
nine hours. One of the incest things
Mr.. Cheesman has to say is that in
Iowa they found the choicest and
best going of the trip. From Indiana
they went into Ohio and visited sew
eral big towns and then back to In
They encountered the
much talked Of pixies" of those stat
es but they found them decidedly
'cuppy" and worn into bad ruts in
places. In Iowa almost all of the
roads were solid and smooth and had
been dragged and cared for. They
were easy and dependable and they
ate them up" doing the best driving
of the entire trip on the highways
of the home state. Gene" is also an
enthusiast over the conditions wit
messed in the home state. They saw
more nice farms, We'll stocked and
with fields of growing grain in Iowa
than anywhere else. Illinois is ahead
of Indiana and Ohio, but Iowa leads
them all and everybody is busy with
the seasons work while farther east
few farmers were seen in the fields.
