Forestry bill aims to spur Kansas tree planting and stations
Kansas moves to create a forestry commissioner to establish experimental stations across the plains. The measure directs lease or donation of land near major rail lines for stations to grow trees and seedling programs for residents. It authorizes annual reports, meetings in counties, and funding for salaries, seed, and travel, with enactment upon publication.

Railroads Boost The Desirability Of The County Lands
The News, Ness City, urges settlers to move into the county near the railroad. It argues lands near the Union Pacific are more attractive and affordable than distant plots, calls for active land agents, and welcomes new settlers this spring. It notes McPherson as premature for state capital relocation. It also recounts the Ennis City G A R post and two Pineythris girls near Alamota gaining fame, with letters of marriage proposals.
