ANokA TO st. CLOUD.
With the exception Of Elk River

tween Auoka and st. Cloud nor ID
the country very inviting. Tho soil is
a. thin as butter spread bv . step

There are two OK three bright little
lakes, which are reported to contain

If the people would choke of one

There is another serious objection to

one Of the finest wagon bridges in the
State, yet it il matter Of general com.
