from the Hospital
DEAR SIR :CND BRO.-Jost a short
letter fu t'eulembrance of the times I
used to be in Brussels at the I. 0, 0.
F. meetings and otherwise. If you
have room ne your paper for a little
of this as I am nota very gond news-
paper correspondent and it i8 the first
time I have ever undertaken to give
an Editor the chance.
I have lately returned from the
fighting area of France where there
are a great many good and just as
many horrible sights to be seen. Itis
not necessary to go into detail but
very few of the good ones are only to
be seen back out of range from the
artillery but up where it has hall the
chance to lodge its iron compliments
things are very badly destroyed.
Near Ypres, where I was first, the
Germans used to do do their sharp
shooting with rifles and machine guns
but down where 1 met with my mis-
hap they did there sniping with 9. 5
and whizz -bangs. Fritz has been
driven back where it keeps him guess-
ing for his range and his aeroplanes
all, which is a good
a w
have 510 a t

Y
job.
I met mine on the 5th of Sept. then
left for England, landed in revery good
hospital. They give as three fair good
meals a day and an issue of cigarettes
once a week, Of course they do not
last a week. The (Uneaten Red Owes
party comae every week and any
thing we want they take note of it,
then it is sent from London,
The weather here has been cold and
wet the last few days but it doesn't
worry therm as they have very little
'
harvest to take off. Ithink this will
Lime. I am im-
proving
m
b
onoYIl for this a r
proving 2.e fast as can be expected
and think one more week will see tn0
crit of here, W)sbing you the best of
health and good luck, I remain,
Yours fraternally,

ham, England, Sept. 21st., 1916.

DEAR EDIT
oR 3u
ting you know I am well and hoping
this may find you all the same. I also
forward $1 5o for subscription to ToR

former address, Benmidji. Minn, 622
3rd St, 1 came to Nokomis about two
weeks ago to look after our interests, as
we have our farm here, rented on shares.
Threshing is about half over and the
crops in this district are very good, con.
sideriog the damage done by hail and
rust. Summer fellows
are allyielding
20 to 30
bushels per acre older land is
less, which is good for this year. Rust
has done more damage than hail.
g e a
Prices ere high, which will more than
make up for the damage caused by hail
and rust. There are no acres Summer
fallow on our place which will go es
bushel per sere or better, but we are
not threshed yet as the wealher bas been
wet end broken for the past week, but
e xpect to be threshed soon. Mrs.
Mooney is not leavirg very good health
of late but Lisle is healthy and has
grown to be a big boy. He is in High
School now, Well 1 will close for this
time but will write again later after I go
back home. With best wishes to you all
I remain As ever. Very truly yours,
