Homesteaders are making their way through the tall grasses toward the small town of Republic.
Then at 12:00 noon on October 10, 1900, the official opening of the north half of the country to homesteading was announced by the Republic Fire Bell. Within a short time homesteader beef and dairy cattle dotted the hillsides.
