ARE YOU
By Charles p. Driscoll

Things do go wrong occasionally; there's no deny
ing that. In case you ever feel that your affairs have
come to about the worst possible pass, and you feel
that a jump into the nearest and deepest river is abou;
the next move, please do me a personal favor and read
"The Stump Farm"
1t isn't fiction nor poetry. Hilda Rose, who wrote
it, is a real woman, now living up near Great Slave
Lake, in Alberta, Canada 4. The book is entirely COM
posed Of letters written by Hilda Rose to her friends.
This woman was a school teacher in a city. She
acquired tuberculosis, and had to go west and stay
out Of doors. She went to Montana, and there mar
ried an old man. She and her husband farmed n
stump farm there, high up in the mountains. The
farm was just no good. and yielded nothing but sor-
row and starvation. But for years they stuck it out.
Eventually they moved on into the great wilderness,
far in the north and they are there still.
/ won't attempt to tell you what Hilda Rose went
through, with an old and ailing husband to care for
and the farm work to do. They adopted two orphans.
and the children were taken away from them TO save
them from starvation. They had a baby of their own,
and now he's a big boy Of 10 or thereabout.
Well, / have never read such a story of courage
and ~fortitude. anywhere, in fact or fancy. I have al
ways loved Hugo's "Toilers Of the Sea- because "
pictures the nobility Of the human spirit. struggling
against the greatest forces Of nature. It is a wonder
full book. But here is a true book that is better
least for me.
My own parents we're pioneers, and I always thought
they went through q rather cruel mill. They had
drought, tornado. hail, flood, grasshoppers, army
worms webworms, blight, smut, hog cholera, grain
rust, San Jose scale, chinch bugs, chicken mites. water
melon lice, dust storms. typhoid fever, smallpox. pncu-
monia and low prices to contend with, on a Kansas
farm. But | would not attempt to compare their strug.
gle with that Of frail little Hilda Rose, who weighs
SO pounds and has no fear in her heart.
Hiida Rose wrote letters to her friends Of schoo;
V M "a ~ L. 81
that she sold the letters to the Atlantic Monthly. send.
ing the proceeds to Mrs. Rose, who had no notion that
she was producing literature as n by-product Of her
struggle. Now these letters. with some Others. have
oeen made into a book. and Hilda Rose Is an author,
ms 5 the book ! would like TO see selling into twenty
eoitlons' II merit and value were measures Of hook
popularity, Hilda Rose could buy Trader Horn ana soII
MIN again. without using up any reserve funds.
II you feel that you're somewhat put upon bv Fate
read The Stump Farm" and take heart.
