This scarecrow better clothed than the peasant. A member of the American Red Cross commission to western Russia and the Baltic states photographed this scarecrow on a farm in Latvia, just over the Lettish-Bolsheviki border. Passing by the next day he noticed that only the sticks of the scarecrow were there; that the long, ragged coat and the noth-eaten sic hat had disappeared. The farmer said that he had given them to a refugee who had just crossed through the Bolsheviki-Lettish front from Soviet Russia the night before. When refugees had changed clothing with the scarecrow there were not enough garments to cover the scarecrow
