Farming employs 82 por cent of the settlers, and mines and manufactures, 7 per cent. Alma, tho county seat, is 33 miles west from Topeka and 05 miles west of Lawrence, at the crossing of the Manhattan, Alma and Jiur- lingame, and the Mill Creek Valley and Council Grove railroads. The town has several stores, wagon and other factories, a floiiring mill and a saw mill with water power. The town is well situated for water power, being at the junction of four creeks. Geological CN-Jjerts say that coal will be found at this point at a depth of from o."»() to 400 feet, and borings are being made in that interest. The town increases very rapidly and is prosperous. One excel- lent weekly paper, tho News, is published at Alma; and many important mail routes converge at that point. Tho borings for coal have descended 500 feet, but no paying veins were found, possibly from some fault in the earth's crust, not in the geological prospects. There is coal under about one-fourth of the area of the county at an average of fifteen feet deep, cropping out in the ravines at many places; but the quality is inferior, and the seams about fourteen inches thick. Some of the veins have been mined, and abandoned because the quantity and quality would not pay for labor and outlay. Blue and white limestone of excellent quality are found in every township, and lire clay has been found in many places at various depths, from the surface or near it to 370 feet below.
