KANSAS LETTER.

After long delay, seat myself to
write a few lines for the REPUBLICAN.
Now, after four years experience in
Kansas, 1 wish to give you a few
things concerning this great State
Kansas is still on the "boom." I'm.
migration from the east is simply i'm.
mense, going to the southwest and
west of the State, where there is still
land to enter, both Homesteads and
Timber Claims, also some school land,
but the way they have been, and are
still coming, there will soon be but
little land to take up. Good farms
are bought and sold every day; land
rates from $40, to s15, per acre. The
character and general make up of the
people is good. The state is not made
up of the ignorant class of people, not
by any means, just the opposite; the
people are generally of the intelligent
class, are wide awake and mean busi-
ness. Every body works aud there
are but few idlers.
The past winter has been the most
severe of the FIVE that l have passed
through here, and it is my observation
that the winters here have been in.
creasing in severity ever sirce / came
here; the last past has been one of
the most severe known by the oldest
inhabitant. There were one hundred
thousand head of cattle frozen to
death in an area of one hundred miles,
and 103 persons that froze to death.
The state is opening more and more
to agriculture every year. Grain of
all kinds are raised 10 abundance
corn was simply tremendous crop
wheat was not so good as the harvest
of one year before the last. Fruit has
been abundant, and eventually this
will be great country for fruit. The
prospect of large wheat crop is very
good, but there is not the amount put
out as there was a year ago, but the
wheat looks very we'll, generally
speaking, considering the severity of
the winter. My opinion is, as the time
advances there will not be as much
wheat sown as there has been in the
past. There will be more stock raised
and less wheat, but corn will be al
ways planted. Hogs are a good crop
here.
Times are pretty dull for Kansas,
but in comparison to the times in the
eastern states, we don't know what
hard times are. Spring is opening
out little later than usual, but most
all the farmers have put in their oats,
and getting ready to plant corn. PO.
tatoes are planted and coming up.
This is delightful morning-every
thing is smiling; Mother Earth has
put on the freshness of youth, her
bosom is wearing the beautiful green.
Birds are singing; yea, all nature
laughs. We are glad Spring has come
to stay its time. As to myself and
family, we are here in this beautiful
city. Mrs. Hills health has been
very poor for many, many months;
my own health is also very poor. l
feel as if we we're ageiDg very fast.
Wilbur is working at his trade, print
