Mrs . Steinmark:
You say you are unhappy about interfering with Thomast right
to use his property as he pleases . What about me?
I live surrounded by his plowed fields. The moisture is
minimal in the area and the wind blows with gale force from
February to June. Am I expected to crawl into a hole w:aile
the dust covers my house, my cattle, my barns? Where can I
got Your sensitivity for me is zero, zerol
For 45 minutes Friday, June 22, we had a cyclonic air flow
before a thunderstorm, common in the area. In a mere 45
m'.nutes my newly renevated home had 1/4th inch of dirt all
over the floor, the beds, the furniture, the sills . I shoveled
out the dirt. This has not happened in that area since
1929-30.

No man has a right to bury another and bury that person alive.
The land is marginal . At best it has 3 inches of top soil.
The whole area is underlaid with ca1rium. Within a year there
will be absolutely ,no topsoil left. The meta west of my place
is gravel . The state uses a 3 mile long ridge for roads.
Here is a multimillionnaire who needs another dollar like he
needs a hole in the head plowing up grasslands that has taken
decades to recover from thoughtless suitcase farmers who
plowed the grasslands .
Ivan not ufderstand your logic. The land at Keota and Grover
is not farm land. Thomas walked in and plowed up the whole
aera and says the ranchers can be damned. We have rights , too.
The noise from the tractors working 2L1. hours a day drove me up
a wall and put me under the care of a doctor. Is this fair?
Is this right? And the man say :he will work the sod three
times before August. Where m of I go while the tractor decibles
drive me mad? Please tell me. Being buried alive is of funny.
