count all the advantages accruing, and the vast
benehts such road would confer upon our apri.
cultural and commercial communities would fill
a volume as large as "Fremont's Expedition"

OF 1t TO complete; another, that there will only be
some fifty miles necessary to be worked much.
the remainder Of distance Being now almost n
macadamized road; and a third farmer tells me
that such a road would so stimulate the farmers
in their pursuits, that looking to this section Of
country for flour, corn, wheat ETC., would soon
be created IN Arkansas, and thus u permanent
market for those articles would be established at
Van Buren, 10 which place the farmer would take
exports. certain of price that ,could be regulated

wouId be of lncacuIabIe value to the producer of
wheat, which he explained in few words: The
wheat crop in this region is generally cut and
harvested IN the month Of June, at which time
our sun Is generally SO warm and our sky 50
clear, that the wheat is quickly cured, aud quick
y converted into -four. In this same month of
June occurs always in the Arkansas river rise,
The "June rse,' which most usually is in the ia,-

wheat grower the quick means of transportation
