faith. Breaking is high, $40 per acre. Most
of the claimants break with double teams or
with small ploughs andfwo yokes of oxen.
With IL inch plough and rolling cutters

experienced in regard to fences. The first crop
will pay well for breaking and fencing at pres

There are hundreds OF settlers who came here
last May with their teams who broke and fenced
their land and raised corn, potatoes &c, and
had some of their crops in, SO that they start
this Spring very much better off i'll money than
when they came here year ago.
Lumber is high. Cottonwood, oak and black
walnut, sells at $50 per Nj. This is transient
as 1t is caused by the scarcity of saw-rnils
which are really the great need, of this district.
Stone however, is abundant aud is extensively
