Tive Hundred per Cent. ProAt On
Kansas Farms Beginning to Pene.
trate the Understanding OF
Eastern Farmers.

There Isl tide in the affairs e men. which,
Taken ut the Hood. leads onto fortune.
We are beginning to have inquiries
from parties in the east relating 10 state
ments in these columns concerning the
exceedingly profitable ret,Xns from farm
ing land in thi, gion- One Of these
is from Frank R,>r. Esq, AL Illinois sub
scriber. who writes for an explanation
concerning the item mentioning Mr..
Nevins' crop which we gave at the value
of 81 .36D.O0 from the small grain raised
on part of quarter section of Ford
county land. which We further stated
was more than twice the cost of the quar-
ter section. Mr.. Rist says there must be
some mistake. lie tAiskS it incredible
that 60 productive Ii nj should be valued
at SO low II price. and that too in re-
yenisnt to So. imps>stsant commercial
point AS Dodge City. We admit that it
sounds like an ''iyritIescent dream'' to
those in the older >eatss. Yet it is liter
ally true that Mr.. Nevins bought the
tract of land on. which he raised this
czep for The palSsy sum of five hundred
dollars last fall. and there are still to be
had some parcels of equal fertility in this
county ut prices SO low rs to appear
ridiculous. We all know such lands are
really worth many times the prices which
they can be bought for Just at this time.
But thrifty farmers like Mr.. Nevins. who
are not afraid to SOW in order that they
may reap. cannot be induced to part
with their homes for any such figures
The fact IS this is merely u temporary
conditions. 1t Is one of those peculiar
combinations of circumstances which the
immortal Shakespeare had in mind when
he used the language prefacing this ar
ticle. That time is now at hand in West
ern Kansas. The tide has passed its
lowest ebb and already the swelling
flood of prosperity is beginning to be
felt. People have begun to discover that
there is a royal road to wealth in West
ern Kansas by raising small grain. Now
that the big irrigating canal has tapped
the underflOw there need never be even
partial failure If any kind of crops
suitable to this climate. OF course this
last is only just accomplished. and out
siders have not leai ned Of it. but those
who want to be in ut the bed rock and
pick up bargains worth ten times the
amount invested should not lose a mo-
ment. for prices are sure to begin dOub-
ling up just AS soon as buyers from the
outside take hold. and under the irriga-
ton system, the boom will surely carry
prices up to fifty dollars per acre with
out a reaction. This land prOpe rly
farmed brings good interest on the lat
ter price. III. Churchill, whose farm
joins the city on the west, assures us the
product from his alfalfa meadow is easily
worth thirty dollars per acre per annum.
1t is not naturally more fertile than the
thousands of acres lying idle which can
be had for trifie of five dollars per acre.
Water seeks its level and the prices are
bound to even up in accordance with the
earning power of the land.
