the surrounding towns. Throughout the whole summer one sees tents dotting the shores of this lake and other neighbor- ing' lakes. Perhaps, my good reader, you think that the campers get baked in the hot sun, because there are no trees under which one can find shelter from the hot sun. Oh no,-that is not the case. There are plenty of wild trees on the lake shores, and beautiful ones at that! And the best part of it is, that most of these trees are cherry trees! The campers have all the berries that they desire. I Fishing is another amusement for the good-time-hunters. With regard to this, I am sorry to say that I am unable to go into detail. Many are the travelers who come to this part of the country for both fishing and hunting. Frequently visit- ors from Chicago, New York and many other places spend several weeks in this locality. The hunting season opens in September and lasts for one month. Those who live near the lakes do not get much sleep while the hunting season is open and are very glad when the hunters depart. Being a farmer's daughter, I shall tell you something about the farmers. The farmers are a hard working class of people. They have to work for every penny they get. The majority of the farmers are quite well-to-do. Every farmer has at least one hundred and sixty acres of land and some have as much as nine and ten quarters. These, of course, are the wealthiest. The chief products grown here are: wheat, barley, and oats. Cattle raising is practiced very little. The reason for this is that all the land is under culti- vation. Very little land is left for pasture. Of course, all the farmers have cows, for they make their own butter and sup- ply the town people with butter, cream, and eggs. Perhaps, many a reader, who has never visited Dakota can see in his mind's eye a farmer and his wife slowly driv- ing, with a team of oxen or with a limping horse and a wagon to a distant town to sell butter and eggs. That used to be the way twenty or thirty years ago but not any more. Now the farmers use automobiles. Every farmer has one-at least a Ford. The towns are not far, because a railroad called the Da- kota Central passes right through this country so you see we are fortunate and have more modern conveniences than one would imagine. H. E. O.

MUUTGS ELAMASSA. Ubi uomas Muinonen oli tytiskennellyt kaivosseu- T duilla jo useita vuosia.
