Abilene IL the permanent county
seat of Dickinson, one OF the finest
and lragest counties In Kasas. The
county Is large enough and rich
enough to back up county seat or
| 10, 900 inhabitants. The population
of Abilene including the voting pre-
cinct is now considerably over 1000,
and large accessiOns are constantly
coming in. We think 1t Is safe to
say that our population will reach
about 1000 within the next twelve
months.
Abilene ~ the headquarters for the
great Texas cattle trade, which
amounts to millions OF dollars an
nually. The trade, with proper man
agement, will continue here for years
to come. Our prospects for the years
to come are encouraging. The tide
used to be against Dickinson, but
since emigrants have learned that we
have plenty Of government lands Of
the best quality, and thousands OF
acres in the hands Of private parties
and for sale at low rates. they are
into the county at q rate
never dreamed possible by the Oldest
settlers. The county will fill up more
rapidly for the next year or two than
for ten years past. Here good homes
may be found In the finest climate
In the world.

story as 1t came to him No one who

In curious contrast 10 the political

have not seen their way TO leading a

Paris gave a tremendous stimulus 10

great deal Of propaganda sent out by

varying response from those who sim
ply did not know Of the conditions OBJ

Most OF the money subscribed IN
France for the Famine Fund comes

sums and from people to whom the
smallest sum is today of importance
