A Letter From the Bush

Dere fren, ows bizness? things aint
too good up ere. I thort I was doin
the missus a good turn be takin her
to the sho espeshly as she really
oughter staid at ome to look after the
cows insted of leavin the kids to do
it.

But wimmens never satisfide shes
done nothin since we come back yes-
terday but tork of silk stockings and
swade shoes and pickcher shos and
flamin lectric irons and gramerfones
and I dunno what else.
She sez she shouldnt have to milk
the cows an that I should buy a milkin
masheen and a winmill to save er
carryin water from the creek when
the tanks go pussyfoot, an she says
she doesnt kno why she should have
to harness up ole Kate every time she
goes to the township wen motor cars
is as cheap as dirt.
dont yer ses I well I do me lady.
ow can I buy motor cars wen you
want to go to the sho every three or
four years and wen the guvment waits
till weve got all the wire nettin we
want before they drop the price.
we ad a good time in the city but I
couldnt keep us both away frum home
for a week next time me comes on me
pat.
We nearly got killed twice in the
traffick.

hoppin you are the sam

Yours truly
