Description An account of the resource Rossville is fortunately situated in many ways—we are near a large city, Topeka, but far enough away to retain our own identity; we can be considered a bedroom community to Topeka since so many residents commute to work to the larger city; we are just north of the Kansas River and enjoy the fertile “Kaw River Valley,” which has benefited agriculture in our community since its very beginnings. From the early days, Rossville Township was blessed with fertile creek and river-bottom land, combined with the upland, which consisted of bluestem grass. The early settlers broke and cleared the bottom lands and part of the upland prairie. The settlers of the 1860-70s began farming and found the soil fertile and productive. However, the task of clearing the timberland and breaking prairie sod must have seemed insurmountable. Corn and wheat, the main crops, and cattle, hogs and other livestock-raising, became the basic agriculture of Rossville township. Many of these early farmers came to Kansas seeking land. They traveled by ox cart and wagon before the railroad went through, following the Oregon and other trails. Settlers bought land from the Santa Fe Railroad or from members of the Citizen Potawatomi Band, who were selling their allotment land. The first mention of early agriculture in Rossville comes from Dr. Gabbey’s account, written in 1886: “The Pottawatomi as a tribe never took kindly to agriculture, four or five acres in corn was a large field. Their fields were usually cleared up from the edge of the timber along the streams, as the Indian had little use for the Prairie kind.” One account gives the cost of prairie in the early days from $2.50 to $4.00 per acre. Lumber was worth from $25.00 to $39.00 dollars per thousand feet. Oxen cost $100.00 a yoke, mules from $100.00 to $200.00, horses $75.00 to $150.00, sheep $2.00 a head and chickens 25¢ each. Masons and carpenters received $2.00 to $3.00 per day in wages. Wheat was worth $1.50 per bushel and flour $4.50 per hundred pounds. From newspapers of 1877: “New corn brought in for shipment is getting 18¢ to 20¢ and corn huskers have been in demand at $1.00 per day and board; 2.5¢ per bushel thrown on the ground or 3.5¢ in the crib.” “Mr. Lambert James, a farmer living a few miles west of town has this season manufactured 1,500 gallon of sorghum molasses, which he readily disposed of at 50¢ per gallon.” But challenges persisted for early settlers. Although this was an extremely desirable area for agriculture and the raising of livestock, it was not possible for the early settlers to procure manufactured goods from the East without paying an extremely high freight bill. It was also impossible to ship their grain and produce economically. River freight was tried but the Kaw River often times did not have enough water to make shipping dependable so the answer to this problem was the railroad. Rossville’s answer came May 18, 1866, when the first train passed through the town. Corn was the main crop and early editors gave much space extolling its excellence. Corn cribs were numerous along the south side of the railroad tracks and on the east side of north Main. A water powered grist mill was located on Cross Creek north of town. Mulvane Bros. built a steam powered mill south of the railroad tracks. One of the earliest farmers was Henry Ford, who acquired 80 acres southwest of Rossville in 1864. His wife was the former Mary Nadeau, who came to Rossville from Indiana in 1862. Henry Ford came to Kansas in 1863 and was a stage coach driver for the Overland Stage Company between Topeka and Manhattan. He met his wife at “Buttermilk Station” where she worked for her brother, Big Alex Nadeau. While working to clear their land of timber and build a log house, they lived in one room of a three room house, west of Cross Creek, north of the old Oregon and California trails. The other two rooms were occupied by Dr. and Mrs. R.S. Gabbey and Mr. and Mrs. C.W. Higginbotham. After the Fords moved into their log cabin, Mrs. Ford often rode horseback nine miles with her baby to the mission in St. Marys. The first flowers she had to plant by the cabin were given to her by the nuns at the Mission. Another early farmer, John DeGraff settled south of Rossville in 1865. He and his wife, the former Frances Navarre, lived in a small dugout until their house was built.

Title A name given to the resource Agriculture from 1962, Rossville, Kansas Description An account of the resource The Shawnee County Reporter, Rossville, Kansas March 15, 1962, Page 15 Shawnee County Beef Tour Scheduled Beef cattle in Shawnee County have a value of approximately four million dollars. Anyone would agree that this is a sizable industry. We would like to present representative samples of the operation of this industry on Thursday, March 22. This is the date that has been set for the beef cattle tour that should prove beneficial to anyone interested in beef cattle production. The tour will begin at 9:00 a.m. at the Joe Campbell farm about three miles west of Rossville on highway 24 and then one-half mile south. Here the group will see a sizable number of cattle that Joe is wintering, in addition to a good set of working corrals. From here the group will go to the Clyde Rogers farm and meet there at about 9:45. This farm is located about one mile south of Rossville. Clyde has heifers on full feed and also heifer calves that were purchased last fall that he is wintering. The third stop will be at the A.J. Thomas and Sons farm located on the west edge of Silver Lake. This stop will be at approximately 10:30 and here the group may see the herd of stock cows and the creep feeding system that the Thomas’ practice. At about 11:20 a stop will be made at the farm of Eugene Smith at 6215 West 21st Street, Topeka. This is about ¾ of a mile west of the junction of 21st Street and Wanamaker Road. Gene Smith and Joe White have a sizable cow herd, both registered and commercial. After this stop, the last stop will be at Roy Engler’s located just one mile south of the Smith farm. After this the group will gather at the Oak Grange Hall which is located by the Roy Engler farm. A free lunch will be served at noon to all those who participate. Wendell Moyer, Extension Livestock Specialist from Kansas State University, will be on the tour to assist with the discussion. A summary will be held after the noon lunch and an early adjournment will follow. Come out all you beef men and bring your neighbor.
