DOES FARMING m KANSAS pAYl /:

We receive dozens of letters during
the year asking this and similar ques-
tons and we are sometimes at loss to
know what reply to make. That farm
er who doesn't feel above working him
self and who is both temperate and in
dustrious, can make money out Of n,1r
productive fields, we feel certain. A
case in point we find published in the
Lawrence Republican.
Mr.. J.. HI. Pratt came to Kansas in
1850 with just money enough to bny
one unimproyed quarter section Of land
and team. He settled in Miami coun-
ty, near Spring Hill. He had family
of nine children and nothing to rely
upon but the proceeds of his claim.
Now for the sequel. The Repu6lica,,
says:
Mr.. Pratt returned to the United
States Assessor, as the amount of his
sales of grain (mainly wheat and pota-
toes from his farm during the year 1867.
the amount of $4400. Besides what he
sold, he has on hand his entire crop of
corn of last year and about 1000 bushels
Va PObutOCo. w III Ills WtlSaI crop ROW
in the ground and his old crops still on
hand, he expects to turn off from his
farm during the present season $1,000
worth of grain. And this is the prod
net of 166 acres under cultivation. He
now owns nine quarter sections, and is
farming at the rate above described.
In the same neighborhood there are
several other farmers who return in
comes of from $1,000 to $1,000 all from
grain sold from their farms. One of
them, Mr. -Thos. Hines, has now 100
acres of wheat on the ground.
We could not possibly furnish bet
ter reply than is supplied in the publ
cation made above. What Mr.. Pratt
and Mr.. Hines have done, other farm
ers can do. There is no State in :the
Union where the inducements of rich
soil, delightful climate, productive har-
vests, are more certain. Kansas stands
in need of farmers and she will return
fruits thousand fold for any seed they
may plant !-LeaU. Times.
