Stark County.

From Mandan to the Little Mis-

OF that name, the distance is 100
miles, a region mainly drained by the
Heart river. Here is Il new German
colony, called Richardton, which with
it's o~live-colorel, rel-roofel houses,
OF uniform size makes q very pleas
ing impression. The town was
adorned with flags and garlands to

climate. Each had taken IL home
stead of 100 acres unyer the home
stead law. for which he would get u
patent by a five years residence and
the payment of a small registry fee.
Many had taken 100 acres more under
the Timber Culture law, for which
they will get title after they have
cultivated ten acres of trees, for eight
years. Thousands of acres of pro-
ductive soil still remain open for the
occupancy of the industrious settler.
A family that wishes to settle upon
the prairie here will need about $3.50

the erection of a dwelling and stable,
the purchase of a span of horses and

the necessary expenses for the first
year, during which only potatoes and
vegetables can he raised upon the
newly broken land. The harvest of
the second year will bring an album

crop. The yield is from twenty to
forty bushels to the acre, and the
bushel brings about ninety cents.

surroundings with regret that we
