Water and Schools.

The Stickney ranch is one of the
best on the Little Laramie and has
added value for the reaso that a good,
substantial school house stands on the
tract. There is a large amount Of
fence and considerable hay land, with
water plenty for farming purposes and
rich soil. The purchasers expect TO
~colonize the lowlands with seven fami-
lies, who will add to the productive
ress OF the ranch and the population of
the county. Mr.. and Mrs. Stickney,
who have a splendid residence in Il
city, will continue to make their home
here. They have made the ranch a
garden spot, and the colonizing fami-
lies will find many things to hand that
would not have been found on raw
land. One hundred and sixty acres are
already under cultivation.
Helping the Community.
Mr.. Stickney stated this morning:
This is just what we are working to
in this county. The dividing of the
Immense holdings into smaller tracts
and the farming of these tracts will
bring an incentive to the county tina
could not come otherwise. We are add
ing to our wealth and population and
the large holders are glad to see it
coming. We like to sell in this way
it means more people, more money,
more settlement and more prosperity.
The division of the land will double
its productiveness."
Mr.. Stickney will dispose of the
greater portion of his stock and for
the present will retire from ranch bus.
mess. Possession will be given about
the first of April, when the sub-dividing
will commence.
