The Plaindealer at St. Francis has changed hands, L. E. Humphrey having sold out to Carter Bridgford. The new men are both democrats and as long as the democratic party is in the land office we predict they will nourish.

They are good fellows and we wish them success, We have received several letters the past week asking such as, "will corn grow, in your part of Does it rain enough to produce crops without irrigation?" and lots of other such questions. In regard to this matter we would just say that corn has been a splendid crop in this country the past yeajs, and that the prospects are splendid Tor next year? We do not need to irrigate out here any more than you do Iowa or Illinois. Some time we may have a dry year, but the Wettest country In the world is liable to have a dry season as well as northwest Kansas, and as everything lias been Oil KASTEKN COLORADO, BE SUltK young city in western Kansas or Nebraska, or eastern Colorado.

It lias purchased the town site and from now on under the auspices of the new management we expect to boom. We have one Of the most favorably located towns in the west and we see no reason why we should not have one of the best towns. Who is bound to keep pace with the times in selling GOOD GOODS AT THE LOWEST PRICES. For all kinds of Our water facilities are of great advantage to us. It is only sixteen feet to the best water you ever drank, and when water is once reached Is found in a never-falling supply, and you are not bothered with the wind mill always breaking and the wind not blow- ing enough to pump water.

Our railroad prospects are very We are oil tin permanent survey liilftl illfln of the 11. M. lieaver Valley road from Orleans, ebraska, to Pueblo Colorado, and the road is now graded to a point within Urn miles of our town, and the grading will be completed to our town as soon as the weather opens in the spring, and inside of nix months we expect to 1 see the cars run- ning into Jaqua, One of the worst drawbacks a country can have is persons coming to tlieni and getting homesick and going to theirTi'fe's folks in the. east. The best countries in the world are pronounced by some cranks as a place of no good, and that the country never has nor will amount to any thing.

The other day were reading in an eastern exchange about a man that had been out to the western part of Sherman county, Kansas, and he said Kansas was dried out, aud the' paper advised every one around there to give Kansas a wide bert h. It will surprise bur Sherman county neighbors to learn they had a drouth there this last summer, but the man that got homesick and went back to btaardy Iowa tells his friends that such is the case, and they believe it and the newspapers bafck there seem to glory in publishing it. They do not stop to think that perhaps the man stole a horse or something and was forced to leave the country, or got homesick and imagined any thing and cared only to get back to the place he came from where ho could sit around a nd tell his cronies about his experience in the "wild west." If a man. perfectly honest, goes east atid tells the truth about this part of the world they think he is lying and say lie is a real estate agent and wants to beat some one. If lots of the people in the east would leave there and come to Kansas and get themselves a home and stay with the country, in a few years they would be comfortably fixed and have a good home, while If they stay in the east the will always rent a place and never have a home they can call their own.

Even if they are poor in this country it is not so hard for lots of your neighbors are poor too, and you are as good as the rest, and if you stay where you are you ill always be at the bottom of the ladder trying to get a start, but you will never succeed unless you take Greely's advice AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS. 1IOKA1K TIirilMAN, i.
