prints the record of an enterprising settler:
Mr. M. S. Endlong settled on the edge of
Franklin county, Nebraska, bordering on
Kearney county, in March, 1S72. When
ho ar.ived on his" homestead, with his two
sons, he had two span of horses but only
eleven dollars in money. At the beginning
of 17 I he had 100 acres of land under cub
tivation ; an orchard containing 500 voting
apple trees, 100 pear trees, and 100 chtrrv
trees. and a vineyard of 500 grape vines.
Mr. Biullong is now about to plant 200 ap
ple trees, 200 peach trees, and 500 addition
al grape vines.
The homestead is in Southern Nebraska,
and on the level prairie ; and no man who
has the spirit of Mr. Budlong need fear to
settle where there are no trees to shade
his roof-tree from the sun. If he plants
as Mr. Budlong has done, in fivo years his
orchard w ill be coming into bearing ; and,
if he has made a windbreak of "cotton
wood, he will have amplo fuel for his
stoves.
Certainly, eleven dollars in cash is not
adequate f r the needs of tlie ordinary set
tler, though there are numerous instances
in Nebraska of men starting in this way
upon nothing, as it were, and in a few
years working themselves into positions of
comfort. Such men are brave anil enter
prising ; but a capital of i5v;0, at least, is
a good thing upon which to start. The
larger the capital given skill,, enterprise,
courage and industry, without which mon
ey is ot little moment and the quicker
and the greater the gain. There is abun
dant room and ample scope iu Nebraska
for men like Mr. Budloti"
