NO MANS LAND.
BEAVER CITY, July 81, 1889.

bEAFER lily, July oil, 1905.
To the Editor of the Eagle.
Notwithstanding this portion OF the
Indian territory - so-called No Mans
Lands situated near the geographical
center of the United States, between the
36th and 37th parallel lines, beginning
at the Tooth meridian line and running
| west to the 103d meridian line, embrac-
ing about 5.S13 1-2 square miles, 90, 254
quarter sections and 3,720,64 acres. it
has been estimated that at least 50 per
cent of the surface of this portion of the
Indian territory is arabic land and may
be easily brought into cultivation. l
have been travelling around over this
country in the vicinity of Beaver City
more or less during the past two months
and 1 must acknowledge that the corn
crops are looking very promising, and
the farmers in this country will reap a
large harvest this season. The climate
of the territory is healthful and invig-
Grating. The pure running water with
an admirable system of drainage and an
absence of swamps and sloughs renders
the atmosphere salubrious at all seasons.
Malarial and epidemic diseases are in
frequent. The winters are generally
quite mild and pleasant. The general
temperature is equal and milder than in
the same latitude further east. The rivers
and the affiuents, together with the lake
lets, provide bountiful supply of excel
lent surface water, accessible to man and
beast in nearly every part of the coun-
try.
In addition to these sources Of supply,
wells sunk to the depth of from fifteen
to forty feet at almost every point on
the highest prairies, rarely fail to fur
nish excellent water in abundance for
all domestic purposes. This part of the
Indian territory, or No Mans Land, as it
generally called, is pre-eminently an ag-
ricultural district. and the true source
of her greatness lies in the capacity of
her soil to supply those staples necessary
for the markets. The surface of
the country is gently undulat
ing throughout the country with no ele
vations which can properly be called
mountains.
To persons DESTROYS of opening new
farms the prairie offers many advantages
over a timbered country, and in the
SuInLneT, Will ltS luAuTldut GRASSES anu
its flowers of almost every hue, presents
the aspect of garden rather than a
wilderness. These grasses, instead of
being coarse and destitute of nutrition,
are almost equal to tame grasses and
afford excellent pasture for stock. The
business of stock raising has assumed
vast proportions in this country so that
it has become one of the leading indus
tries of the country, as large per cent
of the agricultural wealth consists of all
kinds of farm stock. The successful
farmer is he who utilities the products of
the soil in the feeding of stock, which
always finds sure and ready market at
remunerative prices, and the farmer in
possession of a herd of cattle, hogs or
sheep knows he can command the cash
for them at any time. Stock raising and
feeding in connection with the ordinary
branches of agriculture never fails to
produce a fine profit on investment,
labor and expenses. A. MUNDELL.

How She Won Her Soubriquet.

From the Paragraph.
Mrs. r. B. Hayes, known among the
soldiers under her husbands command
as the Mother of the Regiment" won
the soubriquet in the following way: A
half-witted fellow was told by his COM
rades, npon her arrival in camp, that she
had come to do mending for the soldiers.
In good faith he carried his half-worn
blouse for her to mend. After a mo-
ments bewilderment she saw the situa-
ton, and determining to save him from
being made butt of ridjcule, she took
and mended it as if it were really her
business The men were somewhat
ashamed, but, delighted with her way of
treating the matter, gave her the above
title
