acter for many feet down. There is
sandy loan, sandy clay loamsoil, with a
very slight mixture of sand and heavy
clay coil. The sand in the north is not
as great an objection as would be sup
posed. the climatic conditinns being
fortunately so arranged that the sand
merely acts as loosener of the heavy
clav. The la"ge:. share Of this cut
of soil.

ty are under the control and manage
ment of vigorous enlightened and ac-
tive men, The homeseeker should
take into consideration the social ad-
vantages which arise from wisely man
aged public affairs, such as roads,
bridges, schools, churches, and other
homelike attractions, Eagle River a

We have been asked the ques-
ton. what are the politics of
the new proprietor of the Re
view? In reply we will say, we
do not deem it of any great i'm
portance what the political prin-
ciples of a small weekly paper
may chance to be. Less than a
score of weeklies in the United
States have any share in mould
ing public opinion. While one of
our firm is a moderate republican,
the other is an Independent dem
ocrat, yet always in local affairs
advocating what to us seems the

The climate of Villas county is differ

this latitude. 1t is not so cold IN win.
ter or SO warm in summer as many pla-

more uniform. This is on account of
the presence of large bodies of water
such as Lake Michigan and Lake SUI

Villas County has perhaps more lakes
than any other region in the country.
From these lakes there is many run

mile has living water. Wells Of the
purest soft water are easily obtainable.
The average rainfall of Villas Co. as
shown by the statistical records is
about 40 inches, the average for North
