5. Burnhara, in "Pub. of the 111. State Hist. Lib.," No. VIII., 181.
Digitized by Google LIFE OF THE SETTLERS. 131 suggested what was eventually to be the solution of the question of prairie settlement. He wrote: "It will prob- ably be some time before these vast prairies can be settled, owing to the inconvenience attending the want of timber. I know of no way, unless the plan is adopted of ditching and hedging, and the building of brick houses,... and substituting the stone coal for fuel. It seems as if the bountiful hand of nature, where it has withheld one gift has always furnished another; for instance, where there is a scarcity of wood, there are coal mines.'* 1 The remedy suggested was the one adopted, except that brick houses did not become common.
