the rye six feet high; the oats headed

fine grade short horn cattle than this
very county. and il is with unfeigned
pleasure that year after year we witness
the efforts Of our more substantial and
far-seeing farmers who are making in
vestmcnfs in that direction. The fact
that cattle cannot run At large results in
higher and finer grades.
This is land of natural meadows,
clear streems and almost perpetual sun
shine, Ii exactly meets the require
ments of the stockman and shepherd.
The winters being short, and generally
mild. stock raising pays well, but stock
should have good sheltering and fare as
in most other countries. II Is the nat
ural home of cattle aud sheep no less
than that of the millions Of buffalo, an
tclope and deer that for ages have
roamed IN fairness and increased in num-
Der until the coming Of the white man
drove them back. Thus this country is
specially adapted for sheep and stock
raising in conjunction with grain grow
ing. and must undoubtedly soon become
a great source of supply of beef and
mutton to the eastern markets. Thou
sands Of tons Of hay eau be had for the
cutting, which can be used for making
sheds for cattle for shelter. Fortunes
will be made in the raising Of stock in
this valley. ia spite of the herd law
which is upheld more particularly in the
interest Of the agricdlturist.

The new Autograph picture, or birds-eye
view of Wichita, seventeen by thirty inches,
is very fine and effective, showing ever
building in the city distinctly. An actual
count makes them over fourteen hundred in
number. To fully appreciate the growth of
Wichita in the past three years one has only
to compare the present picture with the first
one executed. The new scene shows both
rivers, the islands. bridge. etc., on the west,
and Chisholm and the high prairie on the
east. We believe Lloyd Ferrell has few
copies of this picture left with him for sale.
