h Agriculture in Indian Territory.
-'ss From the journal of the fifth annual
session of the general council of the In
dian tribes OF this territory we dednce
the following facts 81 u .,i
The Cherokees cultivate sc, 600 acres,
the Choctaws 85, 900, MI lscogees 65, 600,
and the Seminoles 10, 060. These are
the fonr largest tribes in the territory,
The productions are such MS farmers OF
the west usually cultivate. They are
enlarging their farms, improving their
houses, and giving particular attention
to orchards. They are advancing in
wealth by tho increase of stock, both in
quality and numbers. s. *
The six small tribes having reserya-
tions in the northwest corner of the
territory cultivate q total area of {, 500
acres. The w Wyandots, who only NUM-
ber 275 souls, cultivate but 660 acres
the Ottawas, 800; 4 the Senecas, 600.
They are developing the farming inter-
ests OF the country rapidly. They use
gang -pfows, mowers and other agricul-
tural achinery. The Sacs and Foxes
have GOO acres the 0sages, 2, 600 ) and
the Affiliated Bands, made up of oil
tribes, nearly have about 2, 1000 acres on
the extreme border. The report claims
that # Shese tribes are sustained in
their RIG hts and privileges, that in o few
years their agrieul tural department will
compare fayorably with fthe states
bounding on the territory. ,..,5s
