| Transcription | "Sept. 23, 1915. Dear cousin: Rec'd your letter some time ago. So will now ans same by a card. We have threshed over 2 weeks ago. Got 1350 bu. of wheat on 70 acres, and some over 600 bu barley and of oats. But we have rented the grain farming to our neighbor so of course only got half the crop. Will have to ring off hoping this will find you all well. As it leaves us greetings to all from us all. From Sadie." - Handwritten on back of postcard, postmarked from Thompson, N.Dak. Sep 25, 1915.
