MANCHESTER TOWNSHIP.

The township of Manchester, or Mashawesid Senibawegin, forms the main section of the Burr Oak Plains of Washtenaw. The princi- pal water courses include the River Raisin in the northeastern, and Iron creek in the southern, sections. The lakes comprise Iron lake, Half-Moon lake, Lower lake, Mud Lake, Holmes lake, Twin lakes, Mountain lake and Sigwan Kitchigami, a small pond near the medicinal springs, in section 30. Iron lake, or Biwabiko, occupies one-fourth the area of section 29, with arms stretching into the northwestern quarter of section 28. Upper and Lower Half-Moon lakes are picturesque sheets of water, connected by a creek which runs through Mud lake and other ponds. Mountain lake, in section 35, is so called from the range of hills which rise from its eastern shore. Throughout the southern sections the sur- face is undulating, the soil rich, and the water supply sufficient for all purposes. The Raisin enters the township at the northwest angle of section 6, and again in the northeast quarter of section 3, where it takes a southeasterly course, flowing through the vil- lage of Manchester. The Jackson branch of L. S. & M. S. and the D., H. & S. W. railroads run through the northern sections, each having a depot at Manchester.

AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES.

Manchester township claims the largest area of land of all the other municipal divisions of the county. The improved lands are said to occupy over 15,136, and the unimproved 7,320 acres, giving a total of 22,456 acres. There are 238 farms in the township, which if equally divided would contain 94.35 acres each.

In 1879, 3,811 acres were devoted to wheat; but in 1880 this number was increased to 4,355. The total product of this cereal in 1879 equaled 93,114, or 24.43 bushels per acre. The number of acres under corn in 1879 is said to be 1,635, which produced 116,115 bushels; 678 acres devoted to oats yielded 27,416 bushels; 459 of clover showed a product of 774 bushels, and 179 acres of barley pro- duced 4,335 bushels. The acreage given to the growth of potatoes was comparatively limited, only 98 acres being planted in 1879, which produced 9,793 bushels. 2,360 acres of meadow lands yielded 2,945 tons of hay. This yield of hay is much below the average of other years.
