--ill1_L_.'I'lL—ELi!!!!* Pike County. One of the Richest and Most Prosperous. Big Goal Mines and an Inexhaustible Supply Still Unearthed. line Farming Lands whieh are Being Tilled by Honest Sons of Toil. 4 The Finest Fruit Growing Country on the Face of theGiohe—A Few Facts. As a great many of our readers have advised us to give a brief description of rikc county, its advantages, its tanning and coal lands and other resources, we will, in a small way, try and give some of the facts and let the outside world know something of this section, l’ike county is one of the oldest settled counties in southwestern Indiana, The county was organized in IS17, but was settled many years before, and descendants of the early generations still live on the lands which their great grandparents had entered in the early settlement of Iudiaiia. The'Wjor parts of the land ir the county ai|e rolling and high, well timbered jmd very fertile, while the low lands,or Ihe White river bottoms, are said to be the richest producing soil on earth. Such a thing as a failure of crops is unknown to the farm

crs of Pike county, although along In the forties a partial failure occurred, owing to the continued bad weather. The bottom lands are seldom overflowed, unless in a season such as we are experiencing this season, although at this time a large acreage of the bottom lands are now being seeded. As a grain producing county it ranks second to none in the state. The average of wheat and corn is very large, they being the principal crops put out, and paying largest profits to the farmers. Yields of corn are from fifty to one hundred bushels per acre, while that of wheat will run from twenty-five to sixty-five busfSrels to ihe acre. It may seem a little preposterous to farmers living in other parts of the state that such a yields of grain is possible, yet it is a solemn truth. ~ The lands aro not only rich for farming purposes but contain the finest eoal in the country. The mining business is now ii|. its infancy in tltis county, vet there are several mines in the county that employ large numbers of employes, and are worked quite extensively,the^coaI being shipped to all partis of the country. The mines arc nftt so hard lo work as those in oilier parts of the country, owing to the fact that 'coal is found nearer the surface and along the foot-hills, which makes it very convenient to mine. V The roads of the county arc fairly good, some of them being verv sandy and well drained, and arc lully up to the standard country roads of the stale.. The farmcrs;are;in easy circumstances, and well to do. They take ptide in keeping up their farms, residences outbuildings and fences, and making things look neat and cozy. The residences and barns ia the main, are large, and well supplied with all the modern conveniences to make tilings comfortable for the families and for the .stock. They arc progressive and on many farms you will see largo droves of stock grazing. It is worth any man’s time to take a drive over Pike county and note the many nice farms and fine residences throughout life length and breadth of I ho couuty. As to fruit we are simply in the fruit growing belt of the world. Apples, peaches, pears, plums, apricots, grapes and all otlief kinds are grown in abundance, and in many years the people hardly knew what lo do with the surplus. In the vegetable line we are away ahead of all the rest of the state. The early crop of vegetables is nearly gone and we are geting ready for the second crop. In small fruits strawberries .and cherries have been ripo for sometime. The strawberries are of the finest varie

lies gyown ana are very large ami ui fine flavor. The season of walermelon and b—che will soon bo here, and we have been told, and we have no reason to dispute the fact, that watermelons are raised in this scetion as large as nail kegs and target. It is a great industry among some of the farmers and arc pnt out in large quantities. They arc shipped to all parts of the state early in the season and command good prices. So mueh for Pike county at this lime, although one might write columns in praise of its many advantages over that ot other counties, but suffice It to say that anyone desiring to live, and that well, should cotiic ic Pike county and make their home.
