PRODUCTS.

As elsewhere stated this county is we'll
suited TO all the productions of this
latitude, but is especially adapted to the
growing of wheat, corn, fruit, and to
stock raising all of which succeed ad-
mirably, and particularly the last. The
inexhaustable supply of native grasses
both for pasturing and for hay-offers to
the stock raiser a most inviting field, and
makes this one of the most certain and
remunerative branches of husbandry
that any one can engage in.

WATER.
BUILDING, FENCING
AND FUEL

One of the special advantages which
this county possesses over the treeless
plains of Western Kansas is found in
its timber. coal and stone. The average
width of timber belts is half a mile or
more, and the quality is excellent, fur
nishing a reasonable supply for all prac.
tical purposes, as is shown by tie fact
that the price of good hard wood in the
towns seldom exceeds 50. so per cord. In
the eastern and less timbered portion of
the county coal of fair quality is mined
in quantities sufficient for domestic
purposes, and will no doubt be devel-
oped as the wants Of the county require.
For building and fencing stone Of an
excellent quality abounds in many local.

CHEAP LANDS.

Notwithstanding the county has been
settled for many years and contains a
population of over 1000, large bodies Of
unimproved lands are yet for sale. These
lands belong to the L. L. & G.. and NJ.
K. & T. railroad companies, and are
offered for sale cheaper than such lands
can be bought any where in the United
States where equal advantages exist.
Land capable Of producing twenty to
twenty-five bushels of wheat or so to rs
bushels of corn per acre is sold at %. 20
per acre for cash. or 800 on time. Al
most any year, after being reduced to
cultivation, q single crop will pay the
entire cost of the land.
During last season many parties in
this county with less than half their
land in cultivation raised corn enough
when sold at Csc. bushel to pay for the
whole tract. Any one looking for new
location can not fail to appreciate this
fact, especially considering the fact that
these lands are surrounded by old set-
Elements, and are convenient to railroads,
towns, mills, school houses, churches and
all the appliances of civilization. Land
at pioneer prices, without any of the
privations of pioneer life.
These lands are sold by Messrs. SCOTr
& BOwLUs, local agents.

INTERVIEW WITH THE PRESIDENT Wash
ia.qton, December IA, 1S1G.-In CONVERSE
ton with Hon. John Amber Smith, of Vir-
ginia, and other gentlemen, yesterday, the
President spoke very freely on the issues OF
the day. He spoke in complimentary terms
OF the Confederate, soldiers, and declared
that they were the best and most peaceable
men in the South, and that he had goneyery
far in providing for them. He thought the
Democrats would quietly submit to the in
auguration of Hayes on maturer reflection.
when told that Hon. B. B. Douglas, OF VII
ginia, had said some days before that il there
was fighting the northern Democrats would
have to do it, the President Tau hed heartily.
He said he was glad to see the temperate
views expressed BY Fill and others. I
The President, in reply to an invitation to
visit Virginia, said he would be glad to do
so, but that he would leave for Havana, Cuba,
in March, and after few weeks spent there
sail for Europe, where he would spendsome
time. Mr.. Smith declared to a friend that
he never saw the President so well or in
such fine spirits.-Speciai to the Alexandria
