The following extracts from a letter received this week, makes interesting reading regarding Western Kansas: Lakin, May 22, 1906. Editor P-edfield Herald: I have been thinking for a long time COME ND SEE US No sage brush anywhere, only In a deep canon, which lies south of us, between here and Lakin, but that is very little. People who have shelter for their stock never lose them. All the old settlers are well fixed. One man who lived alone, sold his farm of 30 acres and got $18,000 for it, and reserved this year's crop.

There are beautiful farms here and the country is settling up very fast. All homestead land around here is taken. Raw prairie land ranges in price from $5 to $10 an acre. Improved land from $40 to $100 an acre. Cattle raising has been the principal business of the country, but the sugar beet industry is fast gaining possession of the country, the general average profit to the acre is from $42 to $45.

This is a good county for any kind of farming, except corn, and some raise a good deal of it. But the nights are too cool here for corn. Garden produce don't grow as fast as there. We cannot plant so soon on account of cool nights, but after it gets a start it is all right. Fruit is simply fine and there are large bearing orchards here.

One man who lives just south of Lakin, across the Arkansas river, sent some apples to the Paris (France) exposition and got first premium on them. So you can see Western Kansas Is not so slow after all. People came here years past and tried to farm like they did in the east and tried to find water by digging for it, but such a thing was out of the question. Plenty of water is obtained by wells from 171 to 200 feet deep. It is sheet water from the Arkansas river.

Some of the farmers here have 19 quarter sections of land with houses and barns on them, and all in wheat. I see by the Herald that it is very dry there, and crops are needing rain. We have had a good rain here every 7 or 10 days. It is now raining and crops are looking fine. A.

An examination by Dr. Griffith, the optical authority of Fort Scott, means something to you of you have trouble with your eyes, and may prevent consequences which later on would be inevitable.
