JUDGE BURFORD CALLED TO THE
ERHNT.


We received yesterday the finest
melon of the season, accompanied with
the following pleasant note:
DALLAS, Texas, July 20, 1874.
TO the Editor OF the Dallas Herald;
AS there has been some little rivalry
between Judge Burlord and ourselves
in raising melons, and having noticed
that he has presented you with one of
his largest, we send you one that beats
the judges several pounds. Please say
to the judge that he will have to enrich
his ground, and come after us again.
Hoping he may be more successful
next year, we are,
Very respectfully yours,
ROSS ~ BRO.
Our friends of the avenue seem to
take it for granted that they have car
ried otfthe palm from Judge Burford
for this year. We have heard of men
halloolng before they got out Of the
wilderness, and we rather hope that
such may be thecase thistime. As we
are honored by being the umpire in
this matter, We trust that the Judge
may rally to the contest again this
season.
