Life on the Prairies Memories of Dakota homesteaders and springtime
A Dakota Farmer correspondent recalls two years on a remote homestead near the Pow der River. He describes winter evenings with six settlers, dances at nearby ranches, and the harsh yet joyful life among coyotes, floods, and blooming summers. He contrasts old prairie freedom with his present home, cherishing memories but noting change. Also mentions Atlantic crossing, a judge on cussing baggage handlers, Bryan in cabinet talks, and Alaska-Yukon-Pacific expo stamp controversy with icy imagery and a protest about cultural depictions.
