In travelling over the Driftwood bot
tom, ye editor was agreeably surprised
| to find how much more good land there
was in Barber county than he had seer
or dreamed of. Here is a beautiful
rolling country, with rich soil and fine
crops. But lying around in every dir
ection we see thousands of acres of sol
that has never seen the plow, and we
could not but think, if all this were
| cultivated, what help 1t would be tC
our county and our town. What We
need is immigration, and with south
western Kansas taking the lead il
crops this year we surely ought to have
it.
