A WONhnrful State.

Texas is a prodigy, not only as to the
extent Of her territory, but III the vari-
city Of her climate, her soils and her pro-
auctions. 4 portion Of the State, double
tie size of New York State, is well
adapted to wheat raising, PRODUCING
eighteen to forty bushels to the acra,
weighing sixty. two to sixty-eight pounds
per bushel, and makes fine -four. Gate
Of line quality, growing forty t. ]G0
bushels TO the acre also good clops o.
barley are grown. All kinds of nuts
and fruit can easily be grown. Wild
grapes grow in the greatest profus.ou
ali over tho State. Without a doubt,
Texas is the natural home Of the grape.
Shrubs and flowers of all kinds do Won
dious!y well; roses bloom ten months
Of the year. Vegetables of all kinds 90
extremely we'll 800 to 500 bushels OF
the finest Irish potatoes: large crops of
the best sweet potatoes; beans, peas,
beets, turnips, onions, cabbages, let
tuce, celery, ETC., etc., all do we'll.
Large crops of fnely-favored to-
bacco can readily be grown. A
portion Of her territory, $50 to
600 miles wide and 400 miles
long, is especially adapted to stock rails
ing, where beef can be grown at cost
not exceeding So. The average profit OF
sheep raising is fully 49, per cent, and
in many cases yields 80 per cent. A
morse can be grown for $40. There are
large profits in the goat, especially the
Angora- Hogs produce enormously, and
cost almost nothing to raise, as the mast
is virtually inexhaustible. 1t must be
remembered that stock are not housed,
or fed at all, merely herded, and allowed
- Craze, winter and summer. Texas
has belt of territory, BOD miles square,
that is as good a cotton country as there
is On the globe, and could, if titled, sup
ply the entire world with her necessary
c1tt.n n. She has large sugar belt that
produces cane, ten to twelve feet II
height, full Of saccharine matter, ana
yields large returns of sugar. The rail
way system of the State is extended, and
is being made most complete, and
each day is adding largely to the mile
ace. Connection is now made at Lare
do with the system Of roads into Mexi-
CO, and at FL Paso with the Southern
Pacific to San Francisco, thus making
Texas the great highway for the i'm
mense traffic of the Pacific coast, Arizo
pa, New Mexico and all of old Mexico
Her southern border being washed by
the Gnlf of Mexico insures cheap trans
portation for all time to all parts of the
world. Her school system is liberalIy
endowed, and churches prosper il al
parts of the State. Her climate, being
tempered by the sea breeze, is equabls,
pleasant and healthful, and one can
work out of doors twelve months Of the
year without harm. Land is cheap and
taxes low. All kinds of labor are in
demand. Emigration is pouring into
the State, and her citizens feel that few,
il any, have a brighter future than has
tie Lone Star State.

A PRETTY HOME-NoW that so MANY

A PRETTY HoME.-Now that so many
pretty things may be bought at moder-
ate cost, the poorest woman may save a
room from being meagre in its appoint
ments. She can avoid horse-hair sofas
and violent carpets, and vulgar prints
on the walls. Good engravings, a little
cretonRe, some knicknacks made by
herself, a few grasses, a growing plant
and an open fire, are all that are needed
to make a room look pleasant and re-
fined, What pity it is that in a coun-
try covered with wood wood-fre
should be an expensive luxury, for
there is nothing like it to make home
attractive! It burns up many quarrel
and morbid speculation, rights many q
wrong, and promotes peace. No pic
ture is so utterly cheerful as that of the
family gathering around it as the even
ing falls. No conversations are so fresh
IS those which go up with the sparks.
No companion is so lively and invigora-
ting to the invalid, the recluse, the
mOurner, or the aged, as q wood-tire. It
is the most healthful of all ventilators,
the most picturesque picture, the most
enlivening suggestion of energy and
thrift. And yet comparatively few
homes possess this rare attraction. In
the cities, however, we can make camel
coal take the place of wood in a measure,
and still rejoice in our open fire.

6 Xhaf,s In n Name2,

A good deal, especially if Its bad one.
Eugene Sue, inhis "Mysteries of Paris, y
happened to choose very respectable
street as the scene of some Of the worst
and most revolving Of all crimes which
abounded in that book. The effect was
prodigious-rents fell, some Of the best
families moved to other streets, and great
was the grief Of the inhabitants that, for
no fault Of their own, their neighborhood
was regarded as little better than infam-
GUS. At last it occurred to some clever
fellow to have the name of the street
changed. 1t was done, and all was soon
right again! The novelist was conquered,
and the residents were as respectable as
aver
