Shall We 20 TO Kansas F!

One might be somewhat deluded
into an impression that Kansas was
a little Paradise, by reading the
letters from time to time in the
downtown Kansas organ, if people
did not know, for fact, that all
those letters are written in the in
terest of land spectators in Kan
sas.~ 1t is scarcely necessary to say
that when people first visit that
State everything is represented to
them in such glowing terms, and
the evidence appears so conclusive
that they are lead to believe that
the great ado about getting rich
so fast in that country are in
great measure true: but too often
they find, after it is too late. that
they have been greatly mistaken in
regard to affairs in the far west.
The Agricultural report of the
United States for the year 1876,
which is certainly an unbiased
source OF information, will give our
readers something of an idea of
he difference between farming in
he western States. We will take
