The Republican of last Friday makes the following truthful observations concerning this county: Jasper county has plenty of rich lands ready to yield a good and abundant crop whenever cultivated. We have good improved farms at from fifteen to forty dollars per acre; wild lands at from three to fifteen dollars per acre. Better grain lands cannot be found west of the Mississippi. Our wild prairie is ready to be plowed and bring forth an abundant yield. Our grazing facilities are not surpassed in this latitude. We are near two railroads. [One runs across the county. —Ed. Union.] We have good schools and church privileges. We have very little litigation and very low taxes. In short there is a general condition of affairs to make Jasper county a most desirable place for those who may be seeking new homes in an agricultural or stock-growing country. If any enterprising farmer or manufacturer thinks of going West let him change his plan and settle in Jasper, and we will guarantee that he will here be happy, prosperous, and acquire a competence, surrounded by the things that make life desirable. We are healthy, peaceful, prosperous and happy, and have the elements here to make others so, if they will only settle with us aodjoin in our industrious habits.
