A traveler describes severe famine in the Mississippi and Missouri valleys where 150,000 to 175,000 people lack feed for livestock. Many suffered property destruction in a recent flood and were rebuilding when a drought hit, leaving communities struggling to restart farming.
From the Past recalls a snowy period with 47 inches of snow since November in Lititz, scarce water earlier, and thawed floods.
