The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1868-01-16

And while the 'stumpage" of single ocra
is worth as much to the owner, in many O.
ses, as fifty acres were ten years ago, il on.
swers the additional end of preparing for |
the plough some Of the finest land in Cam
bria county. This portion of the county de-
riyes its immigrants mainly from ClearfieId
and Blair counties, with a few industrious
New Englandars; while Chest and Susque-
hanna are like avenues to wealth, and have
become the homes of many Clearfield lam-
berers. as well as Indianians.
But Chest and Carroll townships, and es-
pecially the latter, are increasing, perhaps,
more permanently, as we'll as more rapidly,
than any other country portion of the coun-
ty. This is owing to the fact that the Ger
man farmers, by whom these townships
have been mainly settled, and who are still
seeking homes there, do not desire more land
than they can cllticate Hence they buy
small farms, and cultivate thoroughly every
acre they purchase. This portion of the
county is receiving almost daily accessions
to its population from Germany, from St
Mary's. from Eastern and Western Pennsyl-
vania-indeed from every point Of the com
pass.
More recently this class of settlers has
been overhowing its original boundary, and
extending into Cambria and Blacklek town
ships, southwark, Susquehanna, northward
and eastward to Clearfeld and Allegheny.
Wherever they settle the Reighborhood bears
unmistakeable marks of good husbandry.
The universal Yankee nation never will
| be still Bhey may bs likened to q flock of
| pigeons in buckwheat field-those behind
constantly rising, futtering over the heads
| Of those more advanced, and settling down
! beyond, to be again left in the rear in their
! turn. But Cambria county has suffered less
| from Western emigration than any of her
| sisters, and whenever the vicissitudes Of
business, or the whm of a discontented
mind, takes Cam brian from US, his place
is sure to be filed before it grows cold.
