Minneapolis, Mimi, March 81, 1928
white Transfer & Storage Co.,
'Blackfoot, Idaho.
Attention Mr.. l.. B. White.
Dear Mr.. White.
"Your letter of March 29th ack.
nowledging our friendly spirit, ETC..
does not need an answer. However, \ |
thank you for the Acknowledgement. |
Ny real reason for writing you at this |
time is to congratulate your Commer-
cial club for the splendid folder which
you enclosed, telling about the great
points Of advantages Of Bingham
County. I read that folder with .
great deal Of interest.
"The pictures particularly appeal
ed to me. Those brook trout make
my mouth water. The climate you
spoke Of made me feel as though
wanted to pack up and move righy
away but then I got over my pipe
dream and realized that I had too
many vans, horses, wagons, ware-
houses and other interests that are
not easily disposed of and further
more that we could not all live in thas
country and some would have to
stick around Minnesota.
Now please understand I have no
kick coming on Minnesota but you
know after having gone through a
long winter and even at this date.
March 31st, have not shown any great
signs Of breaking up, one sort Of gerk :
a wanderlust feeling. In about an
other month, Minnesota, with it's
thousand lakes, agricultural country
and herds Of cattle will be just 6ean>
tiful, and at that time of the year we
think Minnesota is the most beauti>
tul place in the world.
81 am just wondering If your pic q
ture of wheat fields yielding SIS bu. b
shells per acre is not a little over. .
1rawn. I wonder if that is not some !,
particular few acres that one NAH n
)nce raised that much wheat. -
again 1 want to say that my rea- II
ION for writing you at this PARTICULAR
ime was to congratulate the com.
nittee getting up the folder. 1t n =
rood stuff 1t pays to advertise yheh u
Ldvertising is done properly and IL !, :,
n appealing form. -
"This has so impressed me that W
low when people speak Of Idaho I am W !"
'ound to say good word for it, ana "
of the county of Bing- a.
am. e. r.
Hoping to meet you some day per- .,
onally, I remain, -, NJ
