Inc New Town OF Wheeler-A Prosperous
community Engaged in Farming and
Stock Growing.
WHEELER, Dakota, July Is, 1878.
Editors Press and Dakotaian.
Iarrived at this place after thirty houra'
run on the good steamer Western, and found
everything in prosperous condition. N.
=. Reynolds has fine stock of general mer-
chandise in his new and commodious store,
and is receiving a good large share of the
patronage from the good people up in this
country. He is running in connection with
bis store large farm and stock ranch, hay
ing under cultivation $50 acres Of as fine
land as you would wish to see. 1 had the
pleasure Of going out on the hills and look
ing over his fine herd of stock, consisting of
about ITO head of cattle, among which are
two very fine blooded bulls, one of which
was shipped from Iowa this spring. 1t is
his intention to cross this stock with Texas
and Cherokee cattle, and see what the result
will be. He also has 25 head of very fine
horses and mules, and manages to keep
everything on his place either at work or in
growing and prosperous condition.
Wheeler is situated in Charles Mix coun-
ty, about eighteen miles above White Swan,
on the second bench or table, about one-half
a mile from the Missouri river in fine ag-
ricultural and stock growing county. In
case the extension of the great Indian reser.
walton, and the thirty mile strip on the east
side of the Missouri river Withdrawn. it
promises in the near future to be place of
some considerable Importance. Among the
old residenters it was my good fortune 10
meet Charles Barber, who is quite exten.
sively engaged in agriculture, strock grow
ing and the wood business. Horton T..
Wheeler, who has, as he always has had the
finest garden in the northwest, is also farm
ing and raising some stock and keeping a
wood yard.
The Oldham Bros. are also engaged in
raising stock on quite large scale. Old
Jim Furgason is still here as we'll, hearty
and ready for work as ever. Should the In
dian reservation be withdrawn Charles Mix
county will in the near future be one Of the
most wealthy and prosperous stock growing
and agricultural counties in southern Dako-
ia. Respectfully, &C.,
