Wichita county is gradually being made
more substantial by the arrival of enter

they will be utilized in the production of
Wichita county crops.

with horses, cattle, chickens and q goat,
Their vehicles were all nearly new, and
on one wagon was a sheet iron house,

exceed $4,000 for the purpose of en-

completing the addition already started
since so much has been done by the
HOlton people.
