There Are Many Serious Disadvantages
In The Indian Territory Country.

EDITOR RECoRD:-A few weeks
ago | noticed that the Indian
Territory Fever had broken out in
Sharp county, and if you will
allow me small space in your
noble paper, will tell the boys
some things that | know, which,
if wisely considered, will be
great advantage to some one.
shall only speak of that part
of the Chickasaw Nation in which
| lived, which was at Chigley
postoffice, very near the center
Of the Cbickasaw country was
very we'll acquainted with the
country for ten miles square, and
there is as fine land there as one
need to look for. | do not sup
pose that guano would make it
better. But this land is awfully
tough and hard to cultivate, it
being Of that black, sticky nature,
requiring from three to four good
mules or horses to break or
harrow and prepare it for plant
ing. Then the cultivator is the
next tool to be used, and it must
be used in hurry for that coun-
try is the natural home Of the
cockleburr and persimmon sprout,
1t is a hard matter to rent land
there, unless the renter can
handle at least fifty acres. The
landlord will not furnish q horse
for anything less, and the dwell
ing, then, is not much better than
a sorry barn in Sharp county.
The drinking water is not very
good, and very scarce at times.
There is a good we'll on every
farm, but most Of these wells are
dry q good portion Of the time,
consequently the people have to
haul water. But very few farms
have 70 b&rp on them. If the
farmer should be so lucky as to
raise a little corn he must pile il
in any kind Of a pen that he can
find material to make, and then
cover this pen with hay or
sorgum stalks. Your horses and
cattle must take the weather, un.
less you buy lumber and make a
shelter for them,
This fine, rich land will produce,
just about on an average, one
half bale Of cotton per acre, and
from mono at all to thirty or forty
bushels Of corn per acre. Imade
three crops there, and that is the
way the averages were then,
These years were 1001-2-3.
My advice would be for the
people to stay where they are, or
at least stay away from this part
Of the Territory. There are more
chances TO lose a crop in the
Indian Territory than any place |
ever saw. The green bug, the
web worm, the chinch bug, the
drouth and many other dis
advantages are found there, and
as o rule the houses are 80 sorry

will inquire Of me through tho
