Uch a favored lot as the
people of the south enjoy it is dif
ficult to realize the extreme hard
ships incident to life in the far
northwest. While the blizzard, in
all its fury, is devastating the
fields of Wyoming and Nebraska,
the mildest conditions prevail in
this section. Unwithered by frost
the southern rose holds out its
perennial invitation to the suffer
ing victims of the blizzard in the
cold northwestern states.
Why should they continue to suf
fer when there i^so much warmth
and cheer in this section. Let
them turn thei** faces southward.
In exchange tor the rigors of a
heartless clime, the south offers
them a wealth of sunshine and a
prodigality of resources which no
other section of the country en
joys, aud to these advantages
which nature has lavished upon
her with such a bountiful hand,
she subjoins a hearty welcome 1
