CLYDE. Population, 1,500. A pros- perous, hustling incorporated city lo- cated on the C., R. I. & P., the M. P. and the U. P. R. Rs. and on the Re- publican river in Cloud county, 15 miles east of Concordia, the judicial seat, and 193 from Kansas City. Ly- ing as it does in the heart of a rich agricultural section, Clyde is naturally dependent upon the broad and fertile prairie. Legitimate, conservative ad- vertising has induced homeseekers of the most desirable element, recogniz- ing in Cloud county an ideal home, to flock here by the hundreds. There is no land boom, no unwarranted in- crease in price. Real estate values have risen slowly as a result of the steadily increasing population. The section tributary to Clyde has made rapid progress in the past few years and with its rich lands and its favor- able climate and location there can be no doubt entertained as to its con- tinued and most successful advance- ment. The growth and development of Clyde has been coincident with and is the direct and positive product of this wonderfully fertile section tribu- tary. The city is the child of neces- sity; the resources of the country needed a city at this point, nature produced it and it is worthy of its creator. The natural advantages of
Clyde were at no time better supple- mented by its acquired advantages than they are today and the oppor- tunities to inaugurate new enterprises are open to those who seek. Clyde presents today attractions for every homeseeker and above all to those most practical of all philanthropists, the business man and enterprising capitalist, seeking for a location for the establishment of productive enter- prises. The people of Clyde are in- spired with a spirit that balks at no enterprise and welcomes everyone who comes to add his efforts to the energetic life of this rapidly-growing city. Clyde is lighted by electricity, has a fine system of water works fur- nishing an ample supply of pure water for both domestic and manufacturing purposes, a fire department equal to any emergency that may arrive, a beautiful public park, 2 theaters, ex- cellent natural drainage and sewer . system, first-class hotels, 2 banks, a creamery, flour mill, grain elevators. etc. The streets of Clyde, like its citi- zens, are built upon sensible lines. They are highways and not alleys, and whether lined by business blocks or by the comfortable homes with their well-kept lawns are in keeping with the financial, physical and moral cleanliness of the city. Clyde's mer- chants have kept pace with the great- er possibilities and today are using every advantage tending toward busi- ness growth and expansion. There are 2 newspapers, the Farmers' Voice and the Republican-both ably edited and devoted to the best interests of their city, of which they are invalu- able exponents. The educational ad- vantages of the city are of the highest order, the public schools being admir- ably managed, with abundant accom- modations for the entire school popu- lation, and it has churches of the lead- ing denominations. The Clyde Com- mercial Club, whose card apears on page 287, and to which special atten- tion is directed, was organized to gen- erally promote the wealth, industries, influence trade and population of the city and locality. It extends every courtesy to the stranger and visitor. To such as may contemplate making this place the seat of their operations

Population 1,500. Located in the heart of the richest section of the Republican valley. Known the state over as the wealthiest and prettiest little town in Kansas.
A GOOD BUSINESS TOWN .- The contiguous territory is large and the crops raised on this land are unsurpassed. Farmers market their corn, wheat, oats, alfalfa, cane, watermelons. fruits and produce here. It is the concentrating point for this section. Three railroads, the Rock Island, Missouri Pacific and Union Pacific radiating from this point, carry these products to outside markets. A large flouring mill receives the wheat and ships out the finished product to local and foreign points. A large amount of cattle, hogs, sheep, corn and alfalfa are shipped «laily to Kansas City markets. During season train loads of Clyde melons, always in demand, are shipped to other states. This one product has made the town famous, celebrating the industry each year, as it does, with a Watermelon Carnival at which free melons are given away. A fine system of waterworks owned by the city furnishes an inexhaustible supply of good water to the denizens of Clyde. An excellent electric light system supplies the illumination. The farmers of the vicinity, prosperous when others were decamping for "back East," have for 25 years made possible one of the most complete creameries in the Sunflower State which was the pioneer of the dairy industry and the first of its kind west of the Missouri river. Substantial brick buildings. well kept streets and pavements, the class of its business houses, stores and hotels and the condition of its banks all picture town pride and individual prosperity.
A GOOD HOME TOWN .- Clyde has 5 handsome church buildings and the church organi- zations alive to the interests of the community assume an active part in building up a wholesome atmosphere. It has a splendid system of schools, and a beautiful public park supervised by one of the Woman's Clubs. Two handsome theatres are well patronized. The fine walks, copious shade and well kept lawns give substantial evidence of civic interest.
THIS IS A GOOD LOCATION FOR jobbing houses (grocery, agricultural implements, etc.). a canning factory, an alfalfa mill, paper mill, denaturized alcohol distillery, mill for the manu- facture of breakfast foods.
