Automobile in 100 Square Miles of Territory.

A rather strange fact has been brought to light by one inclined to statistics. That is, there is a tract of rich farming country, extending from two miles east of Remington, to a line some miles west of Goodland, and from the Benton county line to the middle of Jordan township, an area of nearly 100 square miles, that up to a very short time ago did not have an automobile outside of the towns of Remington and Goodland. We understand there are now two or three cars owned just outside of the corporations of the towns, with sonje prospects of more being purchased this season.
