According to Charles Gertesein, agent
for the Junction Santa Fe depot (called
depot by courtesy. the immigrant cars
continue to pass through Topeka daily.
He states that he has never known this
immigration to extend SO far into the
spring.
Several cars loaded with household
goods pass through every week, even
at this late date said Mr.. Gertesein
today. THE majority of them are en-
route to western Kansas from the east
ern part of this state or from Nebraska
and other outside states 1 do not re-
member a time when the immigration
continued SO far into the spring. This
shows that there is a great demand for
western Kansas lands and that the de-
mand is increasing from year to year"
