of Elm Creek and the Neosho River,

| ALLEN COUNTY,
KANSAS.
| IT'S ADVANTAGES
HOME FOR THE IMMIGRANT
Land at Pioneer Prices Without any
Of the Privations Of Pioneer Life!
AMONG the many localities in Kansas
which offer peculiar advantages to the
Home-Seeker, Allen County, as regards
Location, Soil, Water, Timber, Cheap
Land, Convenience to Market, Facilities
for Transportation, Towns, Settlements
and Society, stands second to no other in
the State, as brief reference to the above
mentioned particulars will show:
LOCATION.
This county is second from the East
and third from the south line of the
State. 1t is one hundred miles south.
east from Topeka, seventy-five miles
south from Lawrence, one hundred south
west of Kansas City and twenty-five
miles west from Fl. Scott and lies mainly
within the celebrated Neosho valley.
SILL.
The soil Of the uplands is a black or
dark red calcareous loan of great depth
and inexhaustable fertility, while that
OF the bottoms is the black alluvial de-
pOsits usually found in such localities,
and varying from four to ten feet in
depth. No better soils for the successful
production of all the grains, grasses,
fruits and vegetables of this latitude can
he found in the State.
WATER.
The county is watered by tie Neosho
river, which flows through it from N.
W. to 8. E., and by its tributaries in the
middle and western portion and by the
Marmaton and Usage in the east. Each
of these streams is skirted by a belt of
excellent timber and flows through fine
alluvial bottoms from half a mile to a
mile in width. Water for domestic pur-
poses is found in springs aud wells OF
moderate depth.

substances the presence of such being an
impeachment to the complete extraction Of
the sugar. Sugar Beets to be profitable
should contain not less than 12 per cent of
saccharine, and by the scientific application
of manures have been made to yield IS per
cent.
The specific gravity of the juice affords
satisfactory indication of the saccharire
properties; if at 05 the saccharne amounts
to over Is per cent, from which $40 per
cent of the weight of the roots can be
obtained in sugar.
The percentage of sugar extracted by the
German manufacturer has annually been
increasing from 6 per cent in 1885 to 8 per
cent.
If the Beet Sugar industry can be sue
cessfully pursued in this country, so as to
meet simply the domestic demand for sugar,
the impetus to other interests would be, if
not incalculable, at least difficult to est
mate. In that event the area of land an
nually under cultivation in beet roots would
be 100000 acres. The machinery and
buildings required would be of value of
100, 600, 900 dollars. 2,000 600 tons of coal
would be required by the factories and
1000, 900 dollars worth of stable manure
and other fertilizers annually purchased.
No agricultural interest in Europe can be
compared with it IN rapidity of growth or
in the advantages resulting from its pur-
suit.
That there can be found within the Union
many sections where this industry may be
protitably established admits of no ques-
ton. Preliminary experiments are needed,
and the first step is to grow roots, and
closely observe the influence of soil, ma
nure and climate, and when the roots are
in proper condition procure analysis of the
juice.
If the roots can be produced by the farmer
in quantities of twelve tons and over per
acre, and sufficiently rich in saccharine
matter, and the locality be favorable as
respects fuel and an abundance of pure
water for manufacturing purposes, the
proper conditions exist, and capital is all
that is required
The cooperative system pursued in dairy
districts would be quite as feasible in the
