109 " July 29 - Atkinson to Erina From Atkinson south for about ten mi. the soil is hard and the country level. This is a very well kept up farming country with many fine groves of cottonwoods. About 11 mi. south this kind of land cuts a big "bay" into the Sand Hills which extend northward on both the east and west. The Sand Hills from this point to Inez and Amelia are characterized by very broad valleys bound by few low ranges of hills which show little bunch grass or Yucca. Amorpha Canescens abounds everywhere or the uplands. In these valleys there is much corn & wheat sowed and by the greater area is in hay land. Many ranchers have sowed Timothy and Clover which their span is making a fine crop. The corn also looks good. The wild hay is very fine. The flora of the wet meadows and hay meadows is the same as in Cherry Co. From Amelia to Erina , in the valley of Cedar Creek. The hills are more typcial and the valleys are much narrower> Here also the Bunch grass is well developed but there is little Yucca. Blowouts are infrequent.
