NATURAL TOPOGRAPHY.
Seventy.Six township is one of the
prettieSt bodies of land in the county.
1t is mostly upland, but it. is rich and
productive. The south three -fourths
of the township slopes toward Slate
creek while the north fourth declines
gradually toward the NinneScah. The
land is rolling sufficient for ample
drainage. In good years crops yield
enormously.
Only two small streams invade its
territory. Slate creek barely misses
the southwest corner. Spring creek on
the west side takes its name from the
springs along its course. 1t does not
run at all times but there is always
water standing in pools. CIV. Holmes
informs us that cattle used to be
driven for miles to Spring creek for
water. 1t flows into Slate creek just
south oftbe township line. Oak creek
rises near the center OF the township
and flows south to Slate creek. 1t
takes its name from oak trees along It's
course. 1t is dry good part of the
time except 10 wet seasons.
The divide between Slate creek and
the Ninnescah reaches its highest
elevation just south OF West River
dale. The elevation is so prominent
that IL can be seen for miles. 1t is
one OF the highest points in the
county. Usually these divides are full
OF gravel and stone aud the land is not
so good, but in this case the land does
not Iticeably deteriorate. The
whole Of Seventy-Siy township is good
soil. There is no waste land in it.
The township is traversed by the
Missouri Pacific railroad from east TO
west aud by the Rock Island from
north to south. Every farm is handy
to market.
