than the Boyer Valley of Western
Iowa. Miles upon miles, without u
house or a fence. the land as it came
from the hand Of its maker. The view
was over IA landscape as refined as if
science and labor aud money had been
exhausted in pertec,ing the scene, and
one could Imagine the coach passing the

rather than through Il valley that is yet
in its wild virginitv. And here, too,
the eye found relief resting upon groves
scattered here and there, as if planted
for characterization of the sweet valley.

through which this railroad runs from
river to river; it has not n waste foot
that is not superlatively rich. 1t is di-
versited by rolling prairies, by abiind
ant streams, and what is particularly
attractive-hy groves of timber. What
