DIEHL� CO' C-1 A WORD FROM MICHIGAN. To.the Editorof the Clinton New Era. DEAR Silt,-Thiilking it net out of place to give you a few items, which may be of Iinterest to some of the readers of your paper, about our part of the country, and to give you an idea of the climate, soil, and water, of which there has been so ,much said of ;late ; there being a number o ming over with the intention of purohas• ing lend, and some going back and,misre- presenting the country, but I think, for'. the Most part, they buy and settle down. Se', in thefirst place, we will say a little about the weather here, compared with yours-yoe among your drifting snows, blustering storms and ,blockaded roads. We having not seen a drift, and the deep- est snow we have hadwas six inches, but at the present we have none, but the ground is frozen over, keepicg ea ort of the mud. Others carry back a bad ae- osuntof the water as being' hard to gest, and bad when procured, but we :dui a well on our own place, and after digging 13 feet one day, water to tl a depth of 6 feet was in it' the next morning. Also our neighbor, after diueing6 feet, struck a running spring, and better water I never drank,; . Other and similar instances T could enumerate, but do not" deem it Tie-+ cessary. And, for the--aoile some carry. back the ides it is all sand, but that is a misstatewenf,'we have very little sand, but what we have makes a very dry build- ing site, being a sandy loam. .To give you an idea of the soil, I will give. you an instance, which I saw this fall. ' Failed through a field, from vehicb was taken a heavy crop of wheat, 'there , being a crop of clover growing, I`pulled a stalk measur- ing 3 !ft. 2 in., tooth crops being heavy and in the same year. .Our nearest market is Peck, a thrivipg little town, six milesdis- tent, a level road leading thereto. The Bounty town, is ei4ht'' miles from es ; our dehool house, -two -melee which is; at -pre- sent, used for church purposes, but others hvgoing'up in the coming spring., We have a saw mill of 24 -horse power about. five' minutes walk from us. 'Trusting that the people coming over hero will not'.think. like the boy coming across the lines, .who,. fleeing some of the :people, turned to his father ;saying," Nhy.;father, the :people:, here are the same as in`Canada." Thank- ing yonMr:.Edit ai-fes the space in your paper, and thinking we are not altogether, behind in the world', I remain, yours, Peck, Mich., Jan. 1, 1883. t .H, C. STILL ANOTHER.
