Grasshopper fears ease as Cedar County crops rise
A Cedar County Missouri letter from June 28 1875 notes heavy rains improving crops and reducing chinch bug damage. Oats and flax prosper with widespread reseeding and a projected crop value of forty to sixty thousand dollars. Many families move from grasshopper districts seeking better fortunes and Cedar County grangers plan a fall picnic. Dana criticizes Grant’s resignation, arguing his presidency cost more than his former military pay. Wilson states he does not want the presidency.
