Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1912-02-17
THE SIZE OF KANSAS

Much has been said and written of
the size of Kansas, and much more
might be said before true idea of its
vastness is generally obtained. Eighty
two thousand square miles is a vast
expanse OF territory, but just how
large we can hardly comprehend.
Suppose we could comine the states
of Maine, New Hampshire. Vermont,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Conn
eticut, Delaware. Maryland and the
District of Columbia into one state;
Kansas would cotain them all. and
still have room for another Rhode Is
land. Kansas is larger than any south
ern state except Texas, and exceeds
in size both the Virginias 1t is al
most as large as the combined areas
of North and South Carolina. and is
larger than Ohio and Indiana togeth-
er
If size alone were significant. Kan
sas could take its place among the
first class powers OF earth. Engnand
and Scotland together are smaller
than Kansas, while Wales. Ireland.
Switzerland. the Netherlands and
Belgium added together will not
equal its size. Or, we might add Den
mark. Andorra, Portugal, San Marine
and Greece together and still not
have enough territory 10 make a
Kansas. Turkey in Europe is not as
large as this state, and Roumania.
Servia and Montenegro combined dc
not equal it, 1t exceeds in size the
great islands of Celebes, Java, or the
Moluccas, and would make more than
dozen Polynesias if cut up into
little islands and sowed broadcast in
the ocean
Butler county alone is larger thar
Rhode Island or the whole of the
French possessions in the West Indies
and Atchison county equals the
whole of the Dutch possessions there

ESTABLISHED MARCH 2. 1879.

hardy pioneers of Western Kansas:
