aB PRAIRIE LAND n
H END OF THE GOOD CHEAP FARM LANDS

y HE population of the United States is now increasing more than two
million people every twelve months. This means a new state the
size of Iowa each year, and a vast additional demand or consumption Of
food products.
1t will take more than a million head of live stock, twelve million
bushels Of wheat, twenty million bushels of corn, and the same proportion
OF all other grains, all vegetables, dairy products, poultry, cotton, tobacco,
ETC., to supply the demand of this increase of population each twelve
months. Our exports are also continually increasing.
All of this vast ADDITIONAL production must be made from land
not fully utilized the previous year.
At the rate new land is being utilized, in less than five years there
will not be an acre of cheap farming land in the United States.
lands, over 100, 600, 900 acres having been taken from the Government BY
homestead entry during the past ten years.
The very best cheap lands remaining on the market now, anywhere
in the world, are these rich prairie lands of central South Dakota. The
soil is a deep, rich, black loan, underlaid with a good CLAW subsoi. free
from brush or stone and covered with a fine growth of natural grass.
These lands are now advancing in value, but splendid pieces cal still
be obtained in this locality for from $50 to $50. 90 per acre. There is
no better land in the world. it being as good and productive as the best
Illinois soil for producing alfalfa, corr and live stock.
Natural gas is found in limited quantity in the locality of Pierre. and
make all the lands in central South Dakota of great additional value and
fortunes will be made by many fortunate owners.
These lands will be worth from $4,000 to $4,000 per acre in the
near future. l will be pleased to correspond with anyone wishing to con
slider a land investment, and will give particulars of some extra good bar
gains in land, if desired.

Mr.. Charlton NJ. BrOsius,
Editor of The Herald Progress,
Sumner, Miss.

Dear SIR
Some one was kind enough to
send me copy of your issue of
the 14th ult. containing an edi-
torial, which l have carefully
noted, reading as follows:
"Hon. j. j. Breland will this
week file two suits against the
7. e NJ. V. Railroad Company
with the circuit clerk at Sumner.
The suits are for damages and are
brought by Mr.. Breland for two
negro men. Davis Brown and
Glen Covington. They claim that
after they had paid their fare on
a Y. & NJ. V. passenger train, the
conductor accused them of beat
Ing their way and cursed them
and struck them. If the allega-
tons set up are true, the railroad
should be made to pay damages
to the negro men. A large num-
Der of negroes travel on the Y.
G M. V. From them the company
receives many thousands of dol
lars annually. We have been
travelling on the Y. G M. v. for
the past four years and we have
never seen any bad conduct on
the part of negro passengers.
Once at Webb and once at Vance
we saw Y. & NJ. V. conductors
curse and abuse negro men for
boarding trains without a ticket
and at Webb the conductor cursed
the negro and showed him off the
train for no other reason than
that he boarded the train without
a ticket. He had the cash, which
is good in Mississippi for every
thing else except to ride on Y.
E NJ. V. train, and was willing to
pay his fare, but because he was
a negro the conductor cursed him
and pushed him off the train.
Negroes are human beings. They
are our charges. And it is duty
devolving upon the white people
to see that they are treated fairly
and justly. The Damage Suit
Disease will never be cured in
Mississippi until the railroads
