Valued reader!                     For a long time there has been nothing here to hear about, but now I will grab my pen and write a few lines to The Volksblatt.                     At the present time it is terribly hot, and quite dry. Here and there some places have had a nice rain, but none has […]

Esteemed Reader!                 The reason I am reaching for my pen is that I would like to convey some news before it is forgotten.                 A few days ago, the rain subsided, and the sun came out again.

I pick up my pen to share a few thoughts. I wish to make a few remarks to all the readers of the Volksblatt, and especially to the newspaper staff – a healthy and richly blessed year.                     The holidays are pleasantly here and they are and were really nice; also to have the visits

The people here are finished with the planting, so now if we will have some good weather, we will have a good harvest.                 On the 7th of April, we had a nice rain filling up the rivers, tanks and cisterns.                

The best of thanks to the Walburg Correspondent for his friendly inquiry. I had sprained my finger on my right hand, and as a result was unable to write for a long time.                 There is not much news. Last week we had a very nice rain, and it was really needed and necessary. It

Dear Readers!      Right now, we are having dry weather, this is very good for cotton, and the boll weevils are pestering better. However, this is not good for the gardens, which could use a nice rain.      Mr. M. Kasperik from Waldburg (who seems to be taken a pleasure trip with his wife and
