years urged the necessity of
farmers raising mixed crops in-
stead of all cotton. 1t has con-
tended that a very large sum of
money annually goes out of the
country for the. one article Of
-four and that if wheat was rails
At home, it would be vast
6. The great difficulty in
Section of the state is, we
Toe much; the true policy
pg should be bought
pat can by any posi-
De faised at home. That
wheat can be successfully raised
in this vicinity has again been
demonstrated beyond. any
doubt. By reference to the let
ter ofeur Caldwell correspond
ent, published. in this issue, it
will be seen that Mr.. T, F. Hud-
son who lives il that neighbour
hood has just harvested crop
of one hundred acres of wheat
that will average, at the very
lowest estimate, twelve bushels
to the acre, and P. B. Scott, Of
the same neighborhood, will
make fifteen bushels per acre
on thirty five acres. These
two gentlemen have experiment
ted for three years and are sat-
ished that their -four can be
raised at home. Wheat can be
raised as well in Washington
county as it can in Burleson.
Farmers in Austin, Fayette,
Colorado and Bastrop counties
have for years raised small
crops Of wheat
We have never contended
that wheat should be raised as
a principal or money crop. but
that sufficient should be raised
to supply the home demand for
-four. Some persons say it is
folly to attempt to raise wheat
as we have no flour mill; they
may rest contentedthat we never
will have flour mill until the
wheat is first raised to set it to
grinding. There are gentlemen
of means in this city who have
for several years been not only
ready, but anxious to put up a
flour mill here in Brennan; they
are well satisfied that there is
money in it for them if the mill
can be kept busy.
Too much, attention to cotton
and too little attention to the
smaller productions of the farm
has been one Of the great draw
backs throughout the entire
cotton. region of the south.
Home supplies,slsould as"far as
possible be raised ION the farm
and cotton be made the money
crop. In thisiparticular section
of country small grain-wheat,
oats and rye will be pro6ta-
blewhen we have the means of
gettcng them;5 to the sea coast
at reasonables:rates of freight.
At present the tariff charged by
the Central road are, almost
prohibitory. The completion
Of the Santa Fe road to Bren-
ham and on to Bolton will rem
edy this state Of affairs and give
farmers a market for any sur
plus oats. wheat or corn they
may have.

JAMESTOWN, ". T.
EDrroRs REpUBLIcAN This place is
growing rapidly, Improvements are going
forward on every hand and among Others
county buildings are to be erected, a
want much needed, but the location is
unwarrantable.
The commissioners or rather one one Of
them, {has left town, and the other be-
ing brother in law Of the one doa't dare
to say aug ht, located the site, three blocks
north Of the depot, in behind u store and
other buildings. on low piece OF ground,
and paid to the railroad company five dol
lars 10, for three lots when land Of sut-
jcient size, high and dry, (the highest
point IN the village propcr) could have
been had, and was offered for nothing if
they would locate on it, but as one man
power was doing the business, nothing
could be done. Unless the lo"ation is
changed the parties who have located it
will live to see the day when they will be
ashamed of their act As our country is
fast filling up with that class Of people
who want the best in the best place and
are willing to pay for it and will not he
run by any clique or set Of men. w
hope for the future Of jamestown they
will see tit to change the location.
JUSTICE.
Jamestown alert., 1879-07-03
Answer to Justice.

In answer to the article above, brought
out an article signed "Justice," sharply
crticising the action { f the County Board
Of Stutsman County. for their selection Of
the site for county building.
The great crime charged is, that they
paid for place only thee blocks from
the railroad depot, e., the business cen
tre of the town, the enormous sum of
SIS dollars, while another place was offer
ed, gratis, but the fact that this generously
offered place is nearly = mile from the
depot is covered with silencG The fact
is, that the offer was made by party
~hich last winter, laid out an addition to
the town site Of jamestown, and naturally
tries all means to enhance the value of this
new town site, and leave it to any fair
minded man. If the County Commissions
ers did right to refuse this bribe of. $15,
the acceptance of which would placed the
county building away from the business
part of town. That the county board ad J.
ministers the county affairs most econ,mi.
cally, is proven by the fact they have Kept
the county out Of debt. Can Justice u
or the party whose mouthpiece he is, say
the same thing Of his administration of
the affairs of Green Bay, Wis.:?. Stuts.
