BANNER, Aug. 10.
Land seekers have been scarce the past
week.
Some preparations are being made for
sowing wheat and rye.
We had a bountiful rain last Wednes-
day evening, which insured the maturing
Of the corn crop.
Cutting and stacking millet were large
y INDUCED In the past week. The yield
is from one to three tons per acre.
Some of the old settlers have begun to
cape and yawn and stretch and show
some slight symptoms of disposition to
wake up and do their work farmer-like
before they are left. The way farming
has been done in Trego county by ma,
iority of those styling themselves farm
ers would fail-yes, deplorably fail-in
any country.
I received letter yesterday from a
friend in Mills county, Iowa, which says
it is reported there that western Kansas
crops are entirely dried up by hot winds,
and asks for information. Who starts
such lies to the detriment of Kansas asks?

STOCK-AND-FARM STROKES.

The great problem of profitable farm
ing consists in making the soil increasing
ly fertile.
The wheat crop in Oregon and Wash
ington territory promises to exceed that of
last year.
This seems to be an 'off'' year in fruits,
the crop being below that of last season
everywhere.
A healthy fowl will drink fifteen to
twenty times per day, aud in a close coop
or in hot weather, still oftener.
Diseases of the liver and kidneys are
very common in hogs. The difficulty in
this case, and most other cases, comes
largely from improper feed.

In few days, we shall have a
full line of Presumption blanks
printed. The price for each of these
will be the same as for like-size
blanks of other kinds.
The copy for these blanks comes
from approved sources.
The proof Of each blank is sub
mitted to the scrutiny Of Register
Hanna, who, besides being old in
the Land Service of the Government,
is practical printer.
These blanks, to be brief, are
warranted to be perfect in wording,
printing, quality Of paper and all
other essentials.
Big reductions made on lots Of
500 or more.
The blanks here named will be
added to constantly until we can
supply every blank needed at the
land office, whose printing by us is
justifiable on business grounds.
We mean precisely what we say,
and wish every atom Of Saxon in
this statement to have it's full
weight: We are not to be bucked
off the track by foreign opposition.
We buy our printing paper in Kan
sas, and, as a rule, send for nothing
outside Of the state which can be
had within it. When we know we
are getting an article reasonably, we
don't haggle about prices either.
We aim to assert, IN letters Of living
light, to be Observed especially by land
attorneys IN this land district, that
if any foreign agency offers bargains,
you can, upon authenticoting properly
its offer, hare 1T duplicated right IN
HeS CUtce!
Don't send away for what you
can buy reasonably at home. That
is not the way to build up country!
IL land agents will not work for
the region of country in whose
lands they deal, who can be expected
to do so?
Cash must accompany all orders.

Tho Boom I'm Hamilton County.

AUBREY, HAMILTON Co., Kss, May % =
This is one of the extreme southwestern
counties OF the State adjoining the Colorado
State line on the west. 1t has an area of
2, 1874 square miles and contains 107, 900
acres OF land subject to entry under the
homestead, pre- emption and timber culture
lsvs, and of railroad lands 100000 acres.
The Arkansas River courses the west line of
the center and flows southeast. II is bounded
en- the east by Sunny, south by Seward,
north by Greedy and Wichita Counties. The
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad
running north of ives. trsverses the clunty
north of the center, following the north side
of the Arkansas River. Ths population is
estimated at one thousand. The growth of
the State of Kansas bai SO far been phenom-
email, and yet on stable and enduring basis;
admitted into the Union as a State in 1861,
with population of 107 $50, the enumera-
ton of 1884 shows an increase OF 1,03S 40S
The assessed valuation of all property in
the State in 1861 was S24 737.459. in 1884 over
$237, 020,390. There are yet in the State
thirteen unorganized counties. Toward
them the tide OF immigration is turning and
their growth in wealth and population will
be even more rapid than that
of the Eastern States. Among them all
HAMILTON COUNTY
stands prominent in natural advantages and
dssirability OF location, with an area of
arabic land only as yet spsTsely settled.
There is room for all. It's deep, rich coil
offers every inducement to the farmer. Its
delicious climate is the sure prom oter of
health. It's vast territory of pasture lands
with never falling water in its springs afford
facilities unequaled to the stock grover.
It's quarries OF lime stone around Aubrey,
the future county seat. furnish unlimited
supply of the best building material.
It's transportation and postal facilities are
complete; and this year will create deve-
opment in its growth that will pe considered
remarkable even for Kansas.
We don't ask any0Le seeking home to
come to Aubrey and its beautiful neighbor-
hood on my representations. Let him come
and see for himself; bat let him come soon.
Every day land is taken, and the further
away one must 20 from market. Every day
last week 500 acres Of railroad land were sold
in this county. Aubrey town lots are for
sale, and business houses will be going up ia
or new town in very short time; and q
br dye across the Arkansas River ct this
point will bring all the Sunset City people
here, and the Bear settlements as we are the
nearest depot by fifteen miles to them,
which will make Aubrey one OF the best
business towns in Southwest Kaneas.
