solemn as doom tho councillor was armed with a vicious looking saw horse and behind came two young men who had just been sen tenced to ono hour hard labor at the villago wood pile the alternative for the knights of the road was a bed in some doorway tho chaps wended their way to tho place of torture at the rear ot the municipal building and there performed their alloted tast councillor d h acted as timekeeper and then found sleep ing quarters for thovisltors in manitoba for three and a half years then came west as far as moose jaw and located land 130 miles south in 1910 hence our first town was moose jaw we did not make many trips that far we had assiniboia for our town for quiet a few years it wa3 40 miles we got rockglen about seven years ago it is 7 miles we had one good crop to draw there but have had none since they have to ship in grain now and wo have to draw it home for feed seed etc in 1928 we got hailed out completely and that would have been a bumper crop it would not have cost us so much to market it as we would ihave had no road expenses since then we have had dry years but could always grow enough vegetables to keep us over to an other season this year looked prom ising till the grasshoppors and hot weather struck us wo had a lovely garden till then and really one has no idea the damage they can do till they see for themselves you will seo a field 80 acres green one day tho next it is black wo had goo cabbage 100 cauliflower they stayed with them till the stems were left then the smaller stuff went in quick time they even eat leaves off trees leav ing them like in winter it was gett ing serious when rain came which helped out our pastures we had to got busy and cut wheat so as wo would have some winter feed the government shipped in oats this fall so we could do some fall work to try and check the hoppers when they hatch next spring any help wo get from the government we have to sign notes againsl on land and next years crop the years we have been in here we were just making a living as expenses were high having to draw so far to railroad v hen the wheat was a good price we didnt get much out here it took us three days to make the round trip it cost about 25c a bushel for expenses on road then the freight from assiniboia to head of lakes was about 20c that took 45c oft price of wheat then we had 14c a bushel threshing twine etc so we iliad very littlo coming to us for our work cattle hogs and other farm produce were a good price these days that was what kept us a going at the present time these things are worth nothing out here we cant sell and have to have relief an allowance of 600 a month tor the threo of us last year we were allowed 1s or cloths for a year so you will have an idea how three ot us can dress it is to be hoped we aro blessed with a few good years as we have a lot to pay government as it is a caso ot signing away all we have got and they will bo right ready for share ot crops this letter seems to be all about hard times we always think next year will bo hotter let us hope it is yours sincerely arthur brown ps i might also say that tho contents of car was in good shape after tho long trip berths
