Resources and Prospects of Dallas.

The capabilities Of The sou OF '",s ''""'
-. as we'll as that Of several adjoining
ones have never been tested To their full
est extent, That the soil is ineNhausI.ble
Is admitted and sustained by the eNper-
cnea II about 20 years, That Il is prolific
and fertile, the abundant yearly crops will
cslify,-when in almost all other places
here has been a dcarIh or great scarcity,
wing in the right latitude for the growth
fcotton, its capabilities in that line have
My been partially discovered. ltisknown
% our people generally, that On the high
.,rairics, over two bales of cotton to the
ere, have been raised during successive
casons; and il II furthermore well known,
hat nothing but the want Of the proper
ncNns of transportation, has prevented
Inllas from being heavy cotton growing
ounty.
We would suggest 10 those who have ncv
thought upon the subject, that, in no
,ther place in America, can there be seen
wo crops so different, ms wheat and cot
on, growing successfully side by side
soil that on an average, will yield from
3 TO 20 bushels of wheat and over two
,ales of cotton to the acre, in the same sea-
on, must of necessity be among the most
csirablc and lucrative.
The corn crop has always been sufficient
or home consumption, and generally
large surplus for other places, This pres
mt senson, very large amount Of corn has
,ccn sold to ncighboring counties.
As grass-growing region, Dallas has
tut few supcriors, as is fully testified by
he splendid growth of Hungarian grass
wherever 1t has been tried. Other grasses
grow equally well.
The capabilities Of the soil are mot the
,nly sources of wealth for our citizens
;hccp-raising has been highly successful;
md the abundance and chcapncss of wool
sill soon result in the establishment of
Noolcn factories in our milst. Stock
aising not on the most extensive plan,
out rather improving the breeds, has long
,ccupied the attention Of our farmers
This county is well supplied with water
power for the establishment of factories
md mills and we learn that an entcrpris
ny oitizen Of this county is now already
luying machinery for The establishment of
, large Woollcn Factory at ms pi"vo.
Summing up all of its advantages, its
wheat, corn and cotton resources its
shecp-raising and trade in wool; trade in
fine stock and catl., flour and corn,-we
doubt whether tharc is county in the
State that has a brighter prospect ahead
than Dallas She is out of debt, and her
treasury In the most healthy condition, hav-
ing in hcryaultsa surplus of about $4,000,
over and above her immediate wants. Let
any county beat this during the hard times
and then try to compare lands with U.S.
for we contend that the best land in Texas
is embraced within the circle of about so
miles, of which Dallas may be placed rs
the centre.

Mo,;Hg Horses Jor Iliui,r Trarll.-
In frosty weather you cannot have Uu;n-
|tcuuptcd riding with horse shod in the
ordinary way. The sharp points OF frozen
mud will wound the frog of the foot, and
with snow on the ground, the hollow hool
soon collects hard ball, which makes the
footing very insecure. But these evils are
remedicd by piece of leather hailid on
under the shoe--a protection to the hoci
which makes a surprising difference in the
confidence and surc-!oolcdncss of. the AMI
mails step.
