July 26, 1937 Dear Friend Howell I will finaly answer your letter, I should of answered it long ago, but when I had the time I didnt think about it and when I thought of it I was busy. Well Howell we have one honor now anyway, that Greeley County is the driest place in the U. S. It is the driest up by Jim Hall and Jess Bonsal and through there. Their corn is all dried up and dead. If it rained a foot they wouldnt get no fodder. We could easily still get pretty good fodder and maybe a little corn if it rained right away. Pastures through here have all killed out and are full of weeds, and now the weeds have dried up. Small grain was no good at all. My oats made 4 ½ bu. to the acre and poor oats at that, most of the oats made around six and seven bu. to the acre. About half the people around here mowed and stacked their oats for hay. Nep. Johnson says we can be thankful that we are still alive. We can thank the Lord for that. Johnson had 80 acres of oats on his land and got seven loads of the whole piece. We went down to Palmer yesterday to see Lauras mother, corn looks fine that way. After we left Cotesfield crops begin looking lots better. They had quite a bit of rain down that way, but it cant rain here. When they get a good rain down there we get a sprinkle her, it sure is discouraging. I suppose you are getting plenty of rain. I see in the paper where they are getting lots of rain east of us. There is lots of stock lost around here eating poisonous weeds in the pastures. Grasshoppers have een;awfully bad here this year, but right now I dont see so many. Maybe they got discouraged and left. I suppose you heard that we have a new boy at our house born Sophie is married and lives in Omaha. Bob is still puttering away. I guess he is going to mow thistles now for hay. He mowed some in 1934 and hauled they up in pasture and put them in a ditch for ensilage, but gul the cows wouldnt eat them. Howell I guess I dont know any more news, only dry weather news so will close. Your Friend Henry Groetzinger Contributed by: Lowella M. Stinson Transcribed by Frances Cooley - typed as written
