Itis bounded jon the north by Cass county, on the jeast by St. Clair and Henry, on the {south by Vernon county, and on the west by Linn and Miami counties, Ka fi ive years have | passed since Co., had its birth, yet great have been the changes wrought within this time and mighty have been events and revolutions, ithe discoveries aud inventions that have occurred and have been made {in this county of ours. Bates county was named in honor of Edward Bates by the General Assembly of Missouri in 1841. Mr. Bates was a native of Virginia. In 1814 he came to Missouri with his brother, hethen con the practice of law and | nent at the bar. He w member of the legi for many years. Aboutth a delegate arrived from the Osage Indians being in Washington on business expressed a desire to have missionaries sent to his people, who were then occupying the southwest- ern portion of what is now known as Bates Co. The American Board of Comunissioners for Foreign Missions determined to comply with this re- quest and in 1821 a party was made up for that purpose and settled in Old Harmony, Missouri, on the Marias des Cygnes river, where they estab- lished a school and farmed. The area of this county is about square miles. Bates Co. has very fertile soil, and is famous for its large corn, hay and wheat crops. A large amount of corn is used for feedingstock. Bates county has many eminent men and is weil represented in Congress by Hon. D. A. DeArmond. The school system of the county is excellent, there are everywhere good schools; the towns have graded schools, and the un- graded schools are those of the coun- try. Mr. J. P. Thurman has had the management of our school system for past four years, and they have now reached the point where they are excellent. Mr. Arthur Borron has the management of ourschoolsat present and he also is filling the office enti satisfactorily. Throuhout the greater portion of the county the very best apples are grown of every kind men- tionable, the fruit maturing well during the long season. The pears though not so large as those fromthe Pacific coast are more delicately fla- vored. Peaches are also found in this county which are of the finest kind. Cherries, grapes and plums seldom fail. While of the smailer fruits blackberries, gooseberries and straw- berries are plentiful. Among the miscellaneous agricultural products which receive considerable attention and grow wellin this climate are flax, sorghum, buckwheat and broom corn. Peas, beans, turnips, water- melons, puinpkins and squashes yield bountiful crops, the value of which each year amounts to a large sum. The potato yields well, producing the abundance requisite for home supplies with a large amount for shipmentelsewhere. The sweet potato is also largely cultivated. ‘There are many different kinds of fcrest trees found in the county; the oak, ash, maple, poplar, cypress, sycamore, chestnut, mulberry, elm and hickory are a few of the manytrees. No lan- guage can describe the beauty and grandeur, nor can words sufficiently express the regret that should be felt at their destruction within the last few years. In many places extensive groves still remain and in them are found every species of wood necessary to human comfort and need. Many of the large farms have their well kept fields protected by hedges of Osage orange. Bates Co. has a de- lightful climate, the long cold winters with the heavy snow storms and the jolly sleigh rides, then comes the spring with its fresh grass, then the summer comes its full blown flowers and the waving fields of tall grass and grain on the hill sides are seen every where and in every direction. The rain comes and refreshes everything. The trees are dressed in their summer suit, while the merry birds sit among the boughs of the trees and sing blithely hidden by the leaves. The autumn comes, robbing the world of its brightness by taking the flowers, casting the leaves to the ground and driving the birds to a warm climate. The railroads of this county are M K & T, Missouri Pacific and Pittsburg & Gulf. They connect all the important points of the county. There are sev- eral small streams in Bates county, of these the Osage, Marias des Cygne and Grand River are the most im- portant. There is no prettier town in western Missouri than Butler, the county seat of Bates county. The country surrounding it is gently roll- ing and may be seen for many miles in every direction. Inthe distance seven or eight miles southwest of town can be seen the outline of tim- ber which skirts the Marias des Cygne, while to the southeast, but nearer the town, flows Mound Creek a tributary of the Marias des Cygne. Wherever we may look, we are de- lighted with the beauties of a prairie landscape dotted over with farm houses, cultivated fields and bearing orchards. There are many beautiful residences and busines houses, which show that Butler is supplied with many skilled workmen. The court house yard is the center of attraction where blue grass and tall trees grow, and many achild may be seen play- jing in the pleasant shade of the trees j which throw their cool shade for jmany feet about.

Adrian isa charming little village situated in the north central part of the county amid fertile tields and rolling prai this little town was just makir first efforts to be organized into a town. It has now become one of the most attractive features of the county, Messrs F J Tygard, M S Cowles, E H Brown, C C Bassett, J L Pace and S R Lashbrooke laid the town out July 6, 1880. Messrs S P Cox, H Moudy and brother, Nelson, erected the first business houses and Mr WS Mahan erected the first dwelling house. Thos Heath was the original owner of the land upon which the town is located. ‘The company paid him $1400 for his land which embraced 80 acres. Adrian has grown rapidly in popula- tion in the last few years and hasa fair chance to become one of the largest and foremost towns in the county. Adrianis the best shipping point in the county, there being more grain and stock shipped from there than from any other place in the county. It is composed of some of our most enterprising and intelligent people that are found anywhere in ‘the state of Missouri, and itis always their wish to build up their city as much as possible. Adrian has an ex- cellent school, Prof M A Cleveland has been our principal for the past year. He has made a commendable success of the school and we hope he will be principal next year. The pa- trons are all very proud of their school and congratulate Prof Cleve- land upon building theirschool up in so short atime. The town is charm- ingly decorated with handsome busi- ness buildings, dwellings, many tall trees and flowers in abundance every- where, and to-day it is at its best, being decorated with the flag of our country.
