We referred 10 our last to the views
Of Nj. ,0nderdouk, Of the Mission
Valley Nurseries,, on this subject. He
recently wrote us 10 regard to that and
some other topics, and although, his
letter was private, we think !, he will
pardon US for, making the following
extract: -
II am planting olive trees with sue
cesssr Those rocky hills back of Ssn
Marcos would produce olives splendid.
~. All about San Marcos is q great
future olive country. Lime is an i'm
portaut element of fertility to the
olive I have seen thrifty olive trees
where even common grass would not
grow. Barrenness in the other ele'
ments is a small matterif the spot is
only rich IN lime. Iplanted two trees
from France lastryear. they are now
about seven feet high, as thrifty as
willows. Last April ] got another
small shipment from France sold
part and planted the rest. You know
how dry it has been. Well they have
done splendidly. Now lhave order
ed another lot to be planted next
Spring. Olive culture will yet be an
important element in Texas industry,
and will render every acre of this STATE
habitable- profitable. Olive cul
ture will increase the capacity of Tex
as to support population at least two
hundred per cent: You may say that
am an enthusiast well-but ]
have examined this matter pretty
thoroughly. and am entirely convinc'
ed of the very great Importance d
Olive culture to the Texas people
