WE were glad to meet, on yesterday,
Mr.. Louis Mailer, from Goodhue
county, Minnesota, very intelligent
German gentleman, whose visit to
Texas is for the purpose of selecting
homes for large number of his fellow
countrymen, who have found the in
hospitable winters Of that high north
ern cline too severe for them and have
determined to move to genial eli
mate Wewere pleased to learn from
Mr.. Mailer that Texas has far more
than realized his expectations, and he
will return home to make immediate
preparations for immigrating hither.
He thinks at least a dozen families
will come this season, and that forty
or fifty more families will follow as
soon as they can dispose of their prop
erty in Minnesota. His plan Is TO buy
two or three thousand acres in body,
so that the proposed emigrants can
settle near each other and establish q
community where they can have
churches and schools. Mr.. Mailer is
very much pleased with the country
around Dallas and would like to locate
the colony near enough to the city to
allow the families to attend upon the
ministry of the German Methodist
Episcopal church, with which the most
of them are connected.
We sincerely trust he may find To-
cality to suit him, and that it may be
the property of some large hearted
land owner, who will not drive such
desirable acquisition as the colony
would be from the county by putting
on an exorbitant and speculative
price upon his land.
We know we express the sentiments
of the white people of Texas when we
extend to these families a cordial well
come to our soil, and assure them that
they will find the hearts of our people
as hospitable as the balmy zephyrs of
our prairies.

THE AMERICAN
Hay Loading Machine.

l am now prepared to Gil orders for this ma
chine for the season of 1874.
1t has been my purpose to furnish the farmers
Of the country with hay loading machine which
should be a practical labor-saving implement
ranking with the other great labor saving inven-
tons of the day, and have determined to not
put 1T upon the market until it was perfected
and could cordial yrecommend it to my neighbors
and friends | have made changes year after
year in order to get the best combination possible
to secure my object, and now have a machine
which very few farmers can afford TO be without
1t is light, durable and easily managed, and Is
offered at $50, and freight, price which makes
1t good investment for any farmer who cuts so
tons Of hay year, and on large farms 1t will pay
for itself every year. Its use to me in my last
years haying was worth over 500, in cash. and
had been prepared to use it to its full capacity
it would have easily earned me double that sum
1t saves nearly one-half of the manual labor Of
the hay field, solving the great problem Of labor
supply for the hay harvest.
1t is attachable to a common farm wagon takes
tho hay from the winrow and loads with ease
ton in ten minutes.
1t has been tested by great many enterprisng
farmers of this country and Europe during the
past four years its principles by them universally
endorsed, and even in its then imperfect state
pronounced indispensable by many Of them,
1t has been exhibited at great many fairs
county, State and sectional and almost without
exception has received some award.
The machine is warranted to do its work WELL
and is also warranted against breakages the first
season if properly used.
1t is only by early order that any person
can be sure Of obtaining one for the coming sea-
son, for our field of operation is large, and we do
not expect we can supply the demand.
Persons wishing machines, or any further in
formation respecting them, will please address
the subscriber, or call on him, where they can see
one. N. B. DOUGLAS

THE REAL ESTATE MARKET.

The real estate market through
out the country is in depressed
condition. A San Francisco pa
per has an interesting paragraph
as to how this species of property
rises and falls. 1t says.
at has been noticed that real es-
tate in all progressive American eli
ties has, like the tide, its seasons
to ebb and flow. About five years
elapse while the change is going
on from the season of excitement
to the ebb tide of depression. and
vice versa. The advance of real
estate which ended in the rush and
furore of 1868 A, and the decline
which began early in 1869 did not
cease until the summer or fall of
1868. The decided tendency up
ward began about September of
last year; the high tide of excite
ment may therefore be expected
between August, 1897, and the
summer of 1878, providing the
rule in these matters holds, as we
think it is likely to. 1t is q nota-
bic fact, loo, that real estate in San
Francisco, Chicago and New York
all rushed up at the same time,
and that in them all the decline be
gan at the same time"
