WOOL GROWING IN TEXAS.

The Mason News-Letter says the interest
Texas is taking in wool growing indicates
more certainly than any other one industry
the future position and wealth the State 10
destined to erjoy. The cattle industry, here
tofore the leading source OF prosperity, is
most certainly undergoing a charge in Tex
as. Dsirying will always be confined to the
more appropriate climate of the higher lat
itudes. The improvement of higher breeds
of cattle had as yet met very many and Sc
rious difficulties. This must be done in q
higher system of agriculture. The sgiicul-
tural industries of Texas are too uncertain
to depend upon to accomplish this end
sheep and their improvement are much
more possible and practicable sources Of easy
wealth and will be more and more engaged
in to the neglect of cattle. Sheep RANGES in
the out west regions improve in quality
while the cattle ranges become poorer. No
doubt the same facts are noticeable in Tex
as. As cattle are moved to the less occupi.
ed regions. sheep will ,,ke their placer, and
by the improvement Of breeds be far more
profitable on the same acreage than cattle

known in the markets. II has some of the
advantages Texas has. 1t has been done BY
proper and intelligent improvement Of the
focks. The climate and pssiurage Of Texas
are admirably suited 10 wool growing. The
business years ago ceased to be an expert
ment. Caliiornia's brilliant success will be
supplemented in Texas, and Texas will cad
the wool growing interests ss California
could not do. Under her present system Of
keeping sheep the capacity OF California has
been reached in pounds OF wool. Under as
good system Texas will shear twice a.
many pounds as Cslifornis ever has. By the
possible improvement Of sheep and psstur-
age over twice as many sheep shall be grown
as has been indicated above. In California
sheep ranges are now needed for agricultural
purposes, and unless more certain profits &C.
crue to Texas agriculture, her interest will
lie in the direction Of improvement in fl ,cks
and grssees. Sheep are like q government

The GlObe.D Democrat,
ST. LOUIS.

The Globe Democrat renews its claims to pop
ular favor and patronage, with increased facili
ties for gaining and retaining both, and with in
creased determination to more than redeem its
oft-made pledges TO fill the full measure of reas-
enable expectation as . political. family and
general newspaper.
Politically the Globe Democrat Is recognized
from one endofthe country to the other rs the I'M
hinching champion of that Repub,icanism that
came IN power in time to save the Union from
destruction, and has since devoted all It's ener-
gies to the preservation intact OF the fruits OF
the war forced upon us by the rebels Of the south
aided By the Democrats of the North. We have
opposed all forms Of compromise and concilia-
tiOn that seemed to aim at n restoration to pow
er in this country Of the men and the organiza.
ton which involved us in the horrors Of civil
war. The Democratic party 10 now in the field
for the nexr Presidential election with the doc
trines Of State rights and publication emblaI-
oned on its banner. II successful, IT Will most
assuredly carry out its promise to repeal all the
legislation necessitated by the war and its re-
suits, and will inaugurate policy which will
encourage and assist another attempt ut seces-
the "Solid south" mesns. There is but one an
tidOte for Solid south and the rnIold evils Ii
threatens, and that is n Solid North, united in u
firm purpose to keep the political power OF the
Nation In the sections which sent forth its 10y al
legions to crush rebellion and restore the integ-
rity Of the Union. Events have Enthusiastically
pointed TO Gen. U. 5 Grant As the inevitable
candidate Of the Republican party for this great
contest. There are others worthy as he, but
there seems to be no man so certain to cOnsolid-
ate in his favor all the elements OF success
Hence we have supported and urged his nom
inatiOn, keeping in view solely the welfare of the
Republican party and the best assurance OF Its
triumph in lsc0.
As . general newspaper for the counting room
the family and the Preside, the Globe Democrat
will keep abreast Of the best publications AT the
day. Our facilities for the collection Of news
unsurpassed either east or west. We spare no
expense to obtain the lates and most accurate
intelligence from all quarters by mail and teie-
graph. We have correspondents at all news
centres throughout the country, and their full
and interesting chronicles of events tell how
faithfully they perform the duties assigned them.
Our Commercial News is prepared with great
care, and we may safely challenge q compromise
Of this department Of the Globe Democrat with
that Of any other newspaper in the country. Our
aim Is ftslluess and accuracy, seeking to cover
all subjects of general commerce. and to give
the latest information and quotations As to each.

There is a steady improvement
visible in nearly every quarter of
the State. In this city the growth
is quite perceptible. New houses
are going up in every part of the
town, old ones are being repaired,
a new interest has sprung up on
the subject of manufactures, and
everything points to bctter tim es.
The same growth and improvement
are seen in nearly all the country
towns, especially those on the line
Of the railroads. People wonder
where the money comes from to
ma Ike these new improvements, but
1t comes from some Sottrte, as houses
and factories are not built without
money. The same spirit ofimprove-
ment which characterizes the towns
is perceptible in the country. Our
farmers are all at work with renew
ed energy and bright prospects for
the future.
Somehow it happens that nearly
every man has come to the conclu-
sion that the worst of the hard times
have been passed and that we are
on the tide that leads to prosperity.
1t is subject of frequent remark
thaS the farmers are nearer up with
their work and their crops in better
condition than for several years past;
Take 1t all in all the outlook for
Arkansas is altogether full of prom
lse and hope LE r.. Democrat!
