During the summer Of 1902 there
was completed in Garrett one Of the
handsomest court houses in the state
and it is paid for, too, and not a dol

1902, there was bridge tax levied.
and now. every stream has good iron
bridges spanning it, each Of which
rests on splendid stone abutments.
Speaking Of stone. no county is bet

merous uses to which stone is put.
than is Anderson county.
Anderson county has five railroads
crossing it, to-wit: the Atchison, To-

The oldest inhabitant cannot tell how
many freight trains pass through. The

most Of them. live business towns.
There are. outside Of Garrett, ten
towns, besides several sidings. where
cars are dropped off to be loaded with
cattle, hogs, hay. grain. flax, or any
thing else the farmer desires to export.
There are several rural mail routes,

the advantages Of the large cities. such
as waterworks, electric lights, tele-
phone system, both local and long dis
lance; excellent schools. numerous
churches. hotels, stores Of all kinds,
and is. in fact a live, modern business

II NDERSON COUNTY. KAN

II
Ih SAS, is about rs miles south
west Of Kansas City. Mo-. and about
80 miles north Of the south line Of the
state. It is the second county west Of
the Missouri state line.
A glance at any reliable state map
will convince any one that it is one of
the best-watered counties in the coun-
try west Of the Mississippi river. While
there are no large streams, there are
numerous streams large enough to sup
ply an abundance Of stock water
through the dryest season. The fol-
lowing are among the lagest: North
and South Potawatomie. Iantha, Cher
ry. Thomas, Cedar, Indian, Deer, Lit
tie Usage. Big and Little Sugar creeks,
besides their tributaries, some Of
which afford lots Of water. Along
these streams are belts Of timber that
afford not only abundance of fuel, but
a large amount of native lumber for
such purposes as hard wood are re-
quired. No finer lumber. is produced
in the United States than is sawed
from some Of the burr oak and walnut
trees grown in Anderson county. Be-
sides the native timber, there is no
upland in the west Tor east, either, for
that matter,) that will produce a shade
or fruit tree in less time than the up
land of Anderson county. And there
is no county-seat in the state that has
a finer lot Of shade trees than has
Garrett. The soil which will produce
a rapid growth of trees will also yield
a fine crop Of corn or any other grain
that grows in this latitude.
The length of the season is indicat-
ed by the fact that cotton has been
raised and fully matured here, although
this is not by any means a cotton coun-
try, Indian corn, kaffir corn. sorghum.
wheat, oats, rye and all sorts Of vege-
tables and fruits, both large and small.
are produced in great abundance.
Tame grasses also do finely on this soil.
timothy, clover, Kentucky blue grass.
English blue grass, orchard grass, and,
for the last two or three years, our
farmers are beginning, with good sue
cess, to raise alfalfa. 1t is thought by
many practical men that this soil is
well adapted to its growth. While
Anderson county is not in the wheat
belt OF Kansas, the bottom lands bor-
