It apparently is the same old story: Home people as a rule do not realize the opportunities that are here. The first settlers of this valley did not appreciate the value of that large fertile tract we now call the Sandridge. It was the very last land in the valley to be occupied. A few years from now not a few of those who read these lines will state: "I did not know that Palmer raHey would ever be the prosperous country it is." It will be too late then. The opportunity is now. No experiment. Many families have already demonstrated the productiveness of the soil.
