Abstract
In less than three hundred years, the American frontier has been advanced from the Connecticut River Valley thru the fertile prairies of the Middle West to the Pacific and the frozen tundras of Alaska. Behind the crest of this pioneer wae, homeseekers rapidly occupied the bounteous regions of our great West.
