FOR the EAGLE.
Harvesting in Sumner County by
Moonlight.

BELLE PLAIN, June 21st., 1875.
EDITOR EAGLE: Can you or any Of
your readers inform me whether or
not flax can be safely cut by header !?
If it can how ripe should it be, and
can it be stacked or Kicked up as fast
as cut? The flax crop in this county
is grand success. Wheat and rye
will be about all in shock this week.
I have never seen better crop of
wheat and rye east of the Rocky Noun
tains than wo have in Sumner county.
Those farmers who had the grit or
pluck to go at it last fall and pillow aud
sow, and did not allow themselves to
be attacked with that very common
disease which manifested itself in an
over weening desire to visit "ourwife's
folks" are now reaping and moving.
These moonlight nights the clatter of
the harvester is often heard till mid
night. Yours,
j. w. FoRNEY.
Will some Of our readers who are
experienced in this matter answer. 1t
is our own opinion that flax might be
successfully cut with a ''header." pro-
viding the stock was quite ripe. 1t is
not usual to rick flax we are informed
by one who has had experience, but if
headed might be ricked if covered
well.-[ED.

Kansas Crops.

A regular associate press dispatch,
dated Kansas City, June 10Th, contains
the following crop estimates:
From parties just returned as well
as through letters and kilograms, the
reports as to the grasshoppers in Kan-
sas, all agree that the like was never
before known in the State. Heavy
farmers in the eastern portion of the
State are telegraphing here for harvest
hands, and complain that they cannot
get men enough to get in their wheat.
Harvesting in Southern Kansas has
commenced and the average yield is
simply immense. Some of the CON-
paratively new counties, such as Cow.
ley, claim million bushels of wheat
Sedgwick 100000; Sumner from 500,
900 to 100000; Reno, same; Butler,
1000, 900; and so on, n rough estimate
OF the wheat crop in the Southwest
being four to five million bushels.
This enormous yield will be more than
duplicated in the West and other Sec
lions, the great fear being that hands
enough cannot be obtained to harvest
the crops. Reports from the central
part of the State, as well as other parts
outside Of the grasshopper belt, are
equally encouraging. In the grasshop-
per belt an enormous acreage of corn
has been planted, more by fifty per
cent. than any previous year. FIRE.
quent rainy nights and hot sunny days
prevailing for . week or more have
raised high the hopes for big corn
crop.

OUR DISTINGUISHED VISITORS.
THE EDITORS Or THE MISSLS-
SIPPI VALLEY.
Welcome to tho Happy Valley"
and to the Queen City of tho
Southwest.

In view of the wide spread and ex
ageeratcd reports Of the injury beini
done 10 the crops of the State and o
the Arkansas Valley, the Atchison
Topeka & Santa Fe railroad compan,
have invited the most prominent rep
resentaiives of the press of Illinois
Indiana, Ohio, Iowa and other western
States TO make an exclusive visit Il
our Valley, to the end that from act
ual observation these gentlemen, who
speak daily to millions of people,
might be convinced that there has been
no general devastation here, and that
for a very truth, no happier or more
prosperous people can be found any
where-bcliering they would see that
finer crops were never grown than are
being harvested in this Valley to-day.
That the idea was and is an excel
lent one none will deny. We court
from our editorial friends the closest
scrutiny of our people, towns, climate,
sell, and of all, in fact. that goes TO
rake up this Valley that is destined
at no distant day TO become a very
garden spot" indeed, rich in all that
constitutes prosperous and wealthy
country.
AS far as her limited resources
would permit our little city-yet in
the mere swaddling habilaments af-
forded only by border civilization
and unsymmetrical socicty--has made
every arrangement for your comfort,
and she stretches forth her hand in a
welcome, a welcome that how much
soever it may lack in formaliiy aud
completeness, will prove none the less
hearty aud natural.
la the name then of our Valley and
of her plucky people, whom no grass
hopper can hinder or make afraid in
the name of the city of Wichita, an in
FAINT wonder in growth and business
activity; and in behalf of the Mayor
and City Council, who make the for
NAL tender of its Inequalities, the
EAGLE bids you kindly welcome.
For the convenience of our editorial
brethren and to aid them in their work
of collaiing items of interest aud mat
tiers of fact pertaining TO the past and
present of this Valley and this city,
we present several articles in this
Issue of The EAGLE which they are at
liberty TO use in any way they may
deem wise and proper, only asking
that they will be so kind as to forward
us copy of their own journals con-
tanning their impressions and observa-
tions of their excursion.

The Emporia Excursion.

The following letter, with reference
to the train that goes to Emporia on
the Sd of July, explains itself:
EMPoRIA, June 6.
ED. EAGLE: There have been inqui-
rics made rs to whether we shall stop
the train at Valley Center, and l am
requested to answer through the EA-
GLE. We shall stop there and at Sedg-
wick City also. Persons should get
their tickets at the post office news
depot, in Wichita.
Everything indicates an immense
crowd, and happy time. Will be at
your place next week and supply you
with tickets. G, j. JONES.

SOUTHWESTERN KANSAS.
What Rev. Charles Reynolds, Post
Chaplain at Fort Riley, Thinks
of the Garden Of Kansas"

Rev. Charles Reynolds, an old resi-
dent of Kansas, and for many years
Post Chaplain at Fort Riley, in a re-
cent letter to tho Kansas Farmer gives
his impression Of the Arkansas Valley,
which he pronounces "the garden part
of the Statc:''
1t would seem invidious and unbe-
coming in ali old Kansan to select any
one portion of our fair State, and cant
its praises to the depreciation of other
portions of our lovely and fertile do
main. l shall not do it, therefore, for
/ have seen but little land within the
limit of the commonwealth, that in my
judgment. should be deprecated. But
while say this, candor compels me to
add that that portion of the State
called Southwestern Kansas" which
is embraced in the counties of Chase,
Harvey, Marion. Sedgwick, Sumner,
Butler and Cowley is the garden part
of the State.
travelled through portion Of this
territory some ten years ago, and saw
the land when it was "virgin sOil," and
l have recently meandered over q por-
ton Of the same, aud the time Of the
year when ] could test the capabilities
of the soil and climate. l am forced,
therefore, by conviction, to repeat the
declaration that the portion of the
State named, is, in fertility and beauty,
o garden.
The Wichita city eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1872-1883, 1875-06-24

low the surface; q pure, bracing air,
entirely free from miasma or other ur-
healthy influences, with asclimate pc
culiarly favorable for agricultural OPP
erations.
All these considerable advantages
combine to make this beautiful and
fertile valley and these gently-swelling
slopes, especially attractive. The
young farmer seeking home, who
has few means beyond his own indus
try and strong arms and willing hands
wherewith to carve it out, may here
find free homestead on Unite States
lands, or purchase at low prices, on
remarkable easy terms of payment and
with liberal discount for improve
ments, from the railrod company. Very
often he may thus purchase at relative
ly cheaper prices than by taking a
practically free gift from the govern
lnent of tract of land for his farm.
The parents of children who desire to
establish them in homes of their own,
or to re-establish their own or their
children's health failing, in less favor
ed regions, may here exactly suit their
needs. Here they will find associations
and conveniences equal to those they
desire to leave; schools as good, an al
ready comparatively well-settled coun-
TRIP, with agreeable neighbors, and in
many sections considerable towns and
public improvements along side OF
cheap and rich lands. The well-to-do
farmer here, instead of his present
well-improved but small eastern farm,
may procure q much larger tract, in
which he can put the pillow to work the
day of his arrival hither, and in short
time may have better improved farm
than he before possessed, with the ex-
peuditure of but q small portion of his
money; the balance he may safely,
uscfully and profitably invest in stock.
The sheep or stock farmer may here
find extensive pastures available the
year round, with abundant water at
hand always and everywhere, with no
need to feed his stock except during
the few weeks in which the usually |
short winter prevails; in fact, he here
finds the abundant grasses of the north |
with the genial climate of the south !
conjoined for his advantage.
In conclusion we will unhesitatingly |
declare that in the course of our life,
and through extensive travel, embrac- |
ing almost the entire west, we have |
seen no country so inviting nor one
that offers so great inducements with !
fewer objections to settlement than this |
great valley of the Arkansas, and in |
saving this the whole story is told.
