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 q mile or
more, and the quality is excellent, fur.
nishing reasonable supply for all prac-
tical purposes, as is shown by the fact
that the price Of good hard wood in the
towns seldom exceeds $3.50 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
tiles, yet 50 disposed as to interfere but
little with the cultivation of the soil.

population of over 1000, large bodies oil
unimproved lands are yet for sale. These
lands belong to the L. L. & G.. and NJ.
X. & 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 s.. 20

most any year, after being reduced to

this county with less than half their
land in cultivation raised corn enough
when sold at 25c. 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
