G.. ONDERD0NK, Prop'r.

We have studied closely the various questions
relating TO fruit culture in western Texas during
the twenty seven years Of experience and obser-
vatlon, upon our own ground. We have thus en-.
abled ourselves TO present TO the public list OF
fruits better adapted to our climate than can be
offered by any other establishment
Our pears cannot be sxcelled anywhere. Any
one who has good clay sub-soil and good drain
age need not hunt better pear country than this.
Our plums and grapes are OF the only classes
that have been fund successful here.
Our accllmated list Of peaches is grated, with a
single exception, from new varieties originated
from seed In Western Texas. We do not claim
that our peaches are better than every other, but
we do claim that our trees are proved as hardy
and productive as any scrub seeding, while the
qualities are not inferior to the old lists.
We propose to introduce our fruits into the San
Marcos reighborhood. wherever you can raise
scrub seedlings our trees will do equally well.
This question Of combining hardness, productive
ness and quality is our leading feature.
We can supply good assortment OF ornamental
trses and plants. ,-,

The Cost Of EAucntfOn.

The cost of education in our public
schools averages about eighteen dollars
year This small sum serves to util.
ize the vast sums expended In the sup
port Of youth. The era of childhood
is the era Of capitalizing physical and
mental force for manhood. Where
their are no schools, the youth lay up
capital of evil propensities, narrow
superstitions, and deprayed tastes.
INFLUENCE OF GOOD SCHOOLS.
Where the schools are good, the
youth that attend them convert into
capital fund of scientific knowledge
aud habits of industry and punctuali-
ty, and obedience to rule, This diff
ference can be measured in dollars and
cents. and seen in the value Of real
estate. Investment in community, as
well as also by the higher moral stand
ards usually applied to determine the
results of culture in civilization.
Statistics widely collected by the
National Bureau Of Education give
the testimony OF experience in diffs,-
ent parts Of the country as to the ip-
crease in value which common school
education gives TO labor.
BETTER WAGES.
The simple ability to read and Hrije
and make sri,bmetical calculations,
iDsures an average Of twenty fve b

given to illIterai@ labOrers. The cou1-

Colorado, including Rclugio, Calhoun,

general topography of this country is
level, yet it is sufficiently elevated for
natural drainage both for the require

hygiene; here being but little of what
is known as real swamp lands. The
principal occupation is stock raising.

Sahara, on account of dry weather,

in beautiful green coat, that is kept
alive by the heavy dews and the re-
freshing breeze from the Gulf. There
are some pastures on the bays between
the bayous that are not SO well water
ed, but they have made tanks that at
ford plenty of water for their stock all
the year. The well water is not SO
good as you find in the upper country.

How much Of strength Is due to chance

In prosperous days you fear no fall;
But tickle fortune changes all
For you and other men.
