Hates county itituatetl in the west ern part of Missouri. It is bounded on the north by Cass county, on the east by St. Clair and Henry, on the eouth by Vernon county, and on the west by Linn and Miami counties, Kansas. Hut fifty-five years have passed since Hates Co., had its birth, yet great have been the changes wrought within this time and mighty have been events and revolutions, the discoveries and inventions that have occurred and have been made in this county of ours. Hates county was named in honor of Ed waid Bates by the General Assembly of Missouri in 1841. Mr. Hates was a native of Virginia, in 1S14 he catueto Missouri with his brother, he then commenced the practice of law and became emi nent at the bar. He was a leading member of the legislature of Missouri for many years. About the year 1820 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 Hates Co. The American Hoard of Commissioners for Foreign Missions determined to comply with this re quest and in 1S21 a party was made up for that purpose anu settled in uiu Harmony, Missouri, on the Marias des Cygnes river, where they estab lished a school and farmed. The area of this county is about 873 square miles. Hates Co. has very fertile soil, and is famous for its large corn, hay and wheat crops. A large amount of corn is used for feeding stock. Bates county has many eminent men and is well represented in Congress by Hon. D. A. HeArinond. 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. Thurmaii has had the management of our school system for past f our years, and they have now reached the point where they are excellent. Mr. Arthur Horronhas the management of our schools at present and he also is filling the ollice entirely 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 from the Pacific coast are more delicately Ha vered. Peaches are also found in this county which are of the finest kind. Cherries, grapes and plums seldom fail. While of the smaller fruits blackberries, gooseberries and straw berries are plentiful. Among the miscellaneous agricultural products which receive considerable attention and grow well in this climate are llax, sorghum, buckwheat and broom corn. Peas, beans, turnips, water melons, pumpkins and squashes yield bountiful crops, the value of whiih each year amounts to a large sum. The potato yields well, producing the abundance requisite for home supplies with a large amount for shipment elsewhere. The swet potato ia 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 many trees. 2so 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 f e w years. I n 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 A: Gulf. Thev 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 cuntry surrounding it is gently roll ing and may be seen for many miles in every direction. In the 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 a child may be seen play ing in the pleasant shade of the trees which throw their cool shade for many feet about. There are two public schools in Butler and one Academy. All are good institutions of learuing. The West school build ing is very large, situated in the western part of the city, it contains 10 rooms and eleven grades. Prof. Starr is superintendent of the West school, East school and Colored school. Prof. Starr has graduated many young ladies and gentlemen and a number of them are now suc cessful teachers. Prof. Allison is the principal of the East school. The Butler Academy is one of the best institutions of learning in the conntr. Prof. Richardson is now principal. Under the management of this most excellent principal this institution has become one of the most foremost preparatory schools in southwest Missouri. Butler has a beautiful lake and park and also has a good system of waterworks and electric lights. Many of the principal streets and driveways are macadamized. While Butler was progressing so finely not many years ago a gentleman of But ler, Mr. W. E. Walton, had a large and handsome opera house erected, which was destroyed by. fire, then some of the most prominent citizens of Butler united and had another tine one erected which is now patronized by some of the best troupes on the road. Rich Hill is the second to the largest city in the county. 2ot many years ago this little city was covered with wild grass, over which roamed at will the cattle of the neighboring farmers who little thought that in the near future there would spring up a town, and the silence would be dis turbed by the shrill sound of a whistle and the hum of machinery. Hut in a small space of time there stood a handsome city filled with intelligent people. While Rich Hill is deeply interested in many things she is not forgetful of her school interests and the advantages resulting from a well regulated school system. ADRIAN. Adrian is a charming little village situated in the north central part of tne county amid fertile fields and rolling prairies. Seventeen years ago this little town was just making its first efforts to be organized into a town. It has now become one of the most at t ractive feat u res of the count v, Messrs F J Tvgard. M 8 Cowles. E H Brown, C C Bassett, J L Pace and S U Lashbrooke laid the town out Julv 0, 1880. Messrs S P Cox, II Moudyand brother, 'elson, erected the " first business houses and Mr W SS 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 SO acres. Adrian has grown rapidly in popula tion in the last few years and has a fair chance to become one of the largest and foremost towns in the county. Adrian is 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 fpund anywhere in the state of Missouri, and Ui always their w ish 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 their school up in so short a time. 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 countrv.
