Western Missouri..lts Mineral Resour.
oes, Soil, Climate, sc.
The western portion of the State of Missouri
is beginning to attract attention among people
desirous of emigrating from the older States, or
whO are seeking profitable investments for their
capital. ' The salubrious climate, productive
soil, and abundant mineral wealth;together with
the prospect of its soon becoming a free State,
haNie given it an importance in the eyes of north
ern emigrants, hitherto overlooked or discarded.
The following letter from Professor Swallow,
State Geologist of Missouri, will be found highly
interesting at this time :
COLUMBIA, Mo., January 11, 1868.
H. D. DOWNLY, Esq., President of the Swart
Creek Lead and Copper Mining Company—Sir :
In answer to your inquiries respecting the min
eral resources of , the lands of the "Swan Creek
Lead and Copper Mining Company," in Taney
c)unty,, Missouri, I am compelled to speak from
an examination of a part only of the territory
in which those lands are located. 1 traversed
the northern half of township 26 north, in range
18 and 19 West, of the sth principal meridian.
All the rocks in these townships, and in fact
in the townships south of them, belong to the
Magnesia Limestone series, which contain pearly
all the vast deposits of Iron, Lead, Zinc, Copper
and Cobalt of our State.
These townships have every appearance of
being one of the richest mineral regions of•the
State. The county is very rugged and broken,
with a great abundance of all the minerals and
geological features, which usually aticonspan'y
Lead, Zinc, Iron and Copper. I can safely say,
I saw mare or less of Lead and Iron in every
section 1 passed over in Taney county, and Zino
and Copper in quite a number of the localities.
The Lead is undoubtedly the most valuable, as
it has been found more or less abundant in al
most, if not quite, all the numerous shafts sunk
in this part of the country, and rich veins are
seen traversing the socks in several places.
The following from my Geological report will
give a general view of the resources of. South
Western Missouri. Those are from the Report
on the South Western Branch of the Pacific Rail
road :
TOPOGIIANITI—That portion of the State over
which the South Western Branch of the Pacific)
Itailroad passes, in its course from Lebanon, in
La Clede county, to the State line in Newton, is
a high undulating table land, rather than a part
of the Ozark Mountains, as it's usually repre
sented on the maps of the cou;aty. The eleva-
on of this county is about 1500 foot above the
There is no swamp overflowed lands from
which noxious exhalations can arise to affect
any considerable portion of this country.
The climate, as these facts plainly indicate, is
temperate, dry and salubrious ; the summers are
long and temperate, while the winters are short
and mild. No climate, in short, is better adapted
to secure health and a liixurious growth of the
staple products of, the t mporate zone.
WaTEß.—There is probably no part of this
continent that boasts so large a number of bold,
limpid springs, whose pure, cold waters gush
forth to beautify the land.
These springs and streams contain a great va
riety and abundance - of excellent fish, and are
driving the numerous mills and factories which
supply the flour, meal, and lumber of this flour
ishing region, and they ha've abundant capacity
to supply all the water power necessary to propel
all the mills and factories demanded by any or
dinary population.
While the springs and streams, large enough
to furnish excellent mill sites, are very numer
ous, the smaller fountains and branches are so
abundant that scarcely a section is destitute of
them. The pure limpid streams and fountains
of the South west, are unrivalled for their beauty
and adaptation to the wants of man.
MINERALS.—The mineral wealth of the region
under consideration is very great, and cannot
fail, when fully developed, to command the ad
miration of the world, And greatly increase the
material wealth of oar State.
Building materials are very abundant in all
parts. There is an ample supply of limestone,
sand stone and marble suitable for all the pur
poses to which such materials ate applied in do
mestic economy. Clays, sands, gravel and peb
bles also exist in large quantities.
Iron Ore of most excellent quality exists in
great quantities. The red and brown hemiatites
are the most common, they occur in the ferru
ginous sandstone and are must abundant in the
west and southwest of Green county. Furnaces
might be established hero with great promise of
success..
Zino is also found in large quantities. Zino
blends (the black Jack of the miners) is abund
ant in nearly all the mines of the south-west.
The carbonate and silicate of Zino also occur in
several localities. Whether these ores can be
separated and melted with profit, will be better
determined when we have made the analysis of
them:
COPPER.—The sulphuret and the carbonates of
copper were observed at several localities in the
mines of Taney county, in the Granby mines at
Spurgeon's Prairie, and at several localities in
the western part of Lawrence. The most prom
ising localities are those in Lawrence and Greene,
and the " Goose Diggings" in Taney.
Lead is to be the great staple of the south
west. Some years ago, I reported it one of the
best lead regions of the world. All the subse
quent developments have, proved the accuracy
of that estimate of tho mineral treasures of Jas
per and Newton counties. Since that time many
of the localities have been more fully developed
with great success, and various new ones have
been explored with results in some cases still
more satisfactory.
The mines on Spring River, on Turkey Creek,
and in Spurgeon's Prairie, still promise the most
satisfactory returns, while at Granby, on the
northern bOrder of Oliver's Prairie, the results
have been truly wonderful.
POPULATION.—In 1850 this region had a popu
latioa of about 30,000, which has since rapidly
increased. The country is sparsely settled with
a hardy, energetic, intelligent, and thrifty yeo
manry ; while the towns are flourishing and ra
pidly filling up with a wealthy and refined popu
lation.
Punta° Sonoots are everywhere established,
and most liberally endowed with the large State
School Funds, and liberal grants of public lands.
The bottoms produce a growth of timber equal
in size and quality to any in the State. Several
trees were measured in the bottoms; a sycamore
whose circumference was twenty-eight feet, burr
oak twenty-six feet, black walnut twenty-three
feet, and a thick s'aellbark hickory twenty-three
feet.
The prairies are usually fertile, and clothed
in a rank growth of native grass. No country is
better watered; its streams are numerous, lim
pid, and filled with a great variety anti abundance
of fish, and its springs are pure and wonderfully
large. The agricultural resources of the south
west have been vastly underated.
TRH GRAPH.—The southwest is doubtless bet
ter adapted to the culture of the grape than any
of this or the neighboring States. Nature has
endowed this part of the country with a temper
ate, dry and salubrious climate, and a light rich
calcareous and vegetable soil, which produces a
vigorous growth of the native vines. And, be
s,des, the high bluffs of magnesian limestone of
the calciferous and Potsdamage, on the Osage,
Niangua, Pomme de Terre Sac, and Grand rivers
usual present natural terraces covered by a rich
soil, all wonderfully prepared by nature for the
planting of vineyards.
It is quite certain, in short, that the cultivation
of the grape in the south-west can be made a
source of great profit and national wealth. But
there is an other and higher consideration, which
should lead us to encourage the production of
the native vines, as the vigor and sobriety of the
nation would be greatly promoted by substituting
the pure healthful juice of the grape for the drug
ged and poisonous liquors so abundantly manu
factured and consumed at the present day.
Srocir.—This region of country possesses many
advantages for raising stock,_ particularly neat
cattle, horses, mules and sheep. The broad
prairies furnish cicellent grazing for the salu
brious summers• and the winters are so short
and mild, that but little feeding is neoeesary.
