CHARACTER OF LANDS.
There are many tracts, especially
in the counties in which remain a
large acreage of Government land,
which will make good homes for hon
est, Industrious settlers. For the
most part, this land is hilly aud
covered with timber, yet is we'll
watered and interspersed with very
fertile valleys. This section is not
surpassed for fruit raising, aud yields
we'll in apples, peaches, pears, cher
ries, grapes, etc. The cereals, corn,
wheat and oats are 'ssure CROP" and
with the right kind of cultivation the
yield is remarkable. The climate is
not surpassed by any region in the
United States.
The area of government land is
yearly becoming less, SO that it will
not be long before it Will be impos-
rible to secure homestead in q loca-
lity where it will be valuable. The
rough lands in this district can be
