A Letter From Texas.

kdtior Interior Journal
CoLLISsvILLE, MARCH IO-The county
from which | write is Grayson, lying in the
northern portion Of the State, separated
from the Indian Territory by Red River on
the north. This is claimed 10 be one OF
the most fertile counties in the State
adapted to nearly all kinds OF grain. Cot.
ton is raised quite extensively. the average
yield being one-half bale per acre and il
worth from 8 to 10c per pound. "a bale
Of cotton weighs 500 pounds) The average
yield of corn is 80 to so bus per acre; oats
yield from so to 70 and often as high as
100 bus. per acre. This hiss been good
country for raising stock and is yet, il one
has the capital 10 start with, but the graz
ing Of stock on land belonging to capital
lists and land spectators, as was the case a
few years ago, is now a thing Of the past,
for this county is nov most all under
fence. 1t is not an uncommon thing to see
from 1000 to 10000 acres Of land under
fence in one field. Land is worth from So
to SIS per acre; improved farming land
from SIS to $50 per acre. This is what
would be called prairie county, yet it has
plenty Of timber for fuel, but not great
deal to build with, in fact there ia not
much needed, as fencing is done mostly
with post and wire, the cost being about 40
cts. rod. As to the quality Of soil, the
black, waxY land is regarded as the richest,
but in wet weather ii is very disagreeable,
on account OF its sticking nature. II will
stick to anything. be it smooth as glass.
There resides 10 this land from June to Sep
tender, a small red bug called "chiger,"
thst Is scarcely visible to the eye and which
makes the human race very industrious in
the way Of scratching, il they sit on the
bare ground or stand long enough in one
place. The sandy land is also very pro-
ductive and is much easier 10 cultivate,
with no "chigers" to intrude.
Water can be had at debth Of Is to 40
feet Streams have water in them most Of
the year. Three different railways run

diers who lost a hand or foot we're
raised from SIS to s24 per month,
and those who lost an arm at or above

knee, from s24 to $50 per month. He
considers the increase a part of the

for prosecuting the claim in the FIRST

attorney can make. All that need be
done is to FIJI out a simple blank by
which the identity Of the pensioner is
