gressed rapidly during the past ten
years and is proving to be profitable
Dairying and the raising of hogs
and poultry are important factors in
our diversified farming. Milk, but
ter, eggs. poultry and the hog pro-
ducts bring the farmer large returns,
while the expense of producing the
same is comparatively small. A few
cows, hogs and chickens will pay the
living expenses of the ordinary fam
lily, leaving the other products of the
farm as profit. During the past
year as well as previous years several
shipments of Sedgwick county hogs
have topped the Denver market.
Sedgwick county has many advant-
ages, one of them being the splendid
railroad facilities afforded its citi
zens. The main line of the Union
Pacific railroad enters the northern
edge of the county, and a branch line

tablelands may yet be purchased at
prices ranging from S5u to $50 Der
acre. Oftentimes one good crop has
been known to pay for the land, and
farmers who came here only few
years ago with practically no finan-
cial resources have become well-to-do,
owning their own farm clear with
fine improvements.
Fruit of various kinds is grown
here very successfully. Cherries,
plums, Strawberries and small fruit
are grown in abundance and of fine
quality, and garden stuff of all kinds
grows in abundance. Shade and or
namental trees and shrubbery grow
very well.

velopment of agriculture along the
Platte river was very rapid as the
farming possibilities of the state un-

The fact that water was available for
irrigation in the northeast corner Of
the state was possibly one Of the fac
tors which prevented the development
in this early period of non-irrigated

Denver. This road furnishes the prin-
cipal means of transportation for the
products of the county. The Lincoln
Highway, which is one Of the main
trunk line automobile roads of the
state. follows the course of the Platte
valley through the county. A consid-
cradle amount of road work has been
done in the county and extensive plans
are now being made along this line for
the coming year, it being thoroughly
realized by the citizens that good
roads are big asset.
There are three towns in the coun-

the county, afford ample facilities to
the farmers from all sections to mar
ket their products. More detailed in
formation relative to these towns ap-
pear elsewhere in this paper.
The day of fake land advertising is
over. 1t is an undenied fact that
many people have been "stung' by
fraudulent advertisements, telling of

the United States and the average

farmer who does the work. The hay
lands produce good native hay, which
is harvested for feed for stock and
sold in the market. The grazing
lands are covered with a good growth
of buffalo grass, wheat and grama
grass, which furnish rich and fatten-
ing feed for cattle and stock on the
range.
Sedgwick county offers splendid
opportunities for home-seekers who

three. Irrigated land may be pur-

Washington-Orde for the demo-
bilization of the army by Sept. 30 to
the peace time strength of approx
mately 10000 officers and men au-
thorized by the national defense act
were issued Thursday by the war de-
partment.
Announcement that the army will

A reduction of the military establish
ments to the figures given out will
be 100000 men below the strength au-
thorized in the 1870 army bill, but Of
ficials explain this reduction will be
necessary to compensate for the heavy
excess now existing over the author
