that weigh fifteen pounds each are
common. Carrots, beets, onions and

dainty, but as yet are only raised in
small patches. Prices are very high
because there are thousands of con.
sumers and only few producers.
am sure this is the finest wheat, bar.
ley and grass country ever saw. I
never have seen such fat cattle and
sheep in my life and room for mil
lious of head to Craze. As to the
amount of agricultural lands that are
valuable | will say that there are
thousands Of acres. During the month
of August there were sixteen thous-
and acres entered at this office, and
only dotted the plats here and there
slightly. There are millions of fine
lands but it is divided by ranges of
mountains and no large bodies Law
together. Plenty Of timber and water
everywhere. This good place for
the homeless who want lands if thew
have pluck enough to help open up a
new country; if not, my advice is to re-
main "w:th their wives people,"
But there are thousands of acres of
better lands than the average of La.
bette county that is here subject to
presumption and homestead. Now /
don't want any man to come here bv

might not see it as | do. But if he

be able to get good land at a small
