Silver Creek Township.
Winfield Courier, Thursday, July 9, 1885.
The Board of County Commissioners have been in session since Monday. Most of the time has been occupied examining and allowing claims against the county.
The New Jersey Cattle Co., of Silver Creek township, were rebated on double assessment of $3,035.
Arkansas City Traveler, December 9, 1885.
We notice in the Kansas City Indicator the advertisement of the New Jersey Cattle Co., offering their ranch of 6,000 acres of deeded land in the southwestern portion of Cowley County, for sale. The ranch adjoins E. M. Hewins’ pasture and the horse ranch of M. P. Johnson. A “mint of money” has been expended on this land in improvements and Arkansas Cattle, and the profits no doubt have not been what our eastern friends expected.
