LETTERS OF PEASANTS,
Russian characteristics Revealed
in Their Communications,

IRON the Frankfurter Zeitung.
Private letters among people of the
same social class have become very
much alike all over Europe But the
letters Of Russian peasants still have
character of their own. Several
reasons account for this. Many a
Eillager is SO illiterate that he must
employ a professional letter writer.
The latter, from force of habit. falls
into stereotyped forms of expression.
Furthermore, the people who come to
him with messages for distant rela-
tives and friends usually have the same
things to say.
The principal contents of these let
ters do not consist of news Items
as with us-but Of salutations They
begin something like this:
Letter from home to highly hon.
ored husband. Tsoma Vassilievich
from his wife. Yevdokia Michialovna
In the first line Of my letter I bow
low before my beloved husband. and
the children. Wanya, Mitya, Olga.
Tanya, Mischa. Katya, do the same. :"
OF course the list Of children may
be somewhat longer. I should add,
in explanation, that the Russian word
we usually translate as greeting"
literally means "bowing": for a deep
bow or courtsey is still the usual
form Of greeting among the peasants
After this saluation comes endless
repetitions of the same idea.
Likewise Grandfather Vassili Fom-
itisch. and Grandmother Helena Ivan
ovna greet YOU and wish you every
the brothers. sisters. uneles. aunts.
nephews. nieces and other menbe
of the family. The exhaustive atten-
tion to details. which comes to light
even in Russian classical literature
Is characteristic in these letters.
The principal theme is varied In 4
thousand ways. II parents write to
their son they never forget to add:
I'VE send thee our paternal blessing.
and may it dwell with thee eternally
to the end Of thy life" And the son
.n. aSrn or se'ss 5 Of tsen ,hs
blood" Sometimes the writer sends
soul and loving respects" A very
sgurative formula is this one: "I bow
from my white face to the bare
mother earth" and the very Russian
and touch the earth with our fore
heads" The last formula is a re-
minder Of the old. Russian custom
when petitioning tho csar. This was
the only way in which the common
people dared approach their master
ished
After tho principal theme has been
dsvelopsd with the necessarv detail
q short account Of the health Of the
family follows. usually in this form:
I'VE are. thank God. all alive and
we'll" Now and then brief mention
will be made Of some other fact: thst t
the condition Of the crops is good.
or that the two horses are well. or
that q COW had a calf last year.
These letters end with a short for
mula, such as Until we meet again."
only rarely Ia a more tender express
sion used This reserve 10 typical Of
the naive and unspoiled nature of the
Russian peasant and particularly of
the Russian peasant woman. The
most affectionate term is: II kiss
thee hard, hard" and very rare, in
deed, are the more loving express 3.
sions: "I kiss thee on thy sugar
mouth" or II kiss thee on thy purple
lips and thy sad eyes"

continued increase in the price of spot
cotton overshadows any other business
development in this territory today
About $13.650.000 has been added to

The bullish market has produced a
tendency among growers to hold for
still higher prices and in the long run
may not prove an unmixed benefit. al
