TERPRIsE

The citlzsns OF DallAs have subscribed
largely for stock TO establish manufacture
OF agricultural implements, all enterprise
thnt 10 80 much seeded in this state that
will stop to q certain extent the great
drainage from Texas OF the large SUN OF
money that 10 paid every year by the farm
ors Tor all kinds oi tools aud machines o
enable them to produce the crops, which is
paid over 10 eastern and northern manu-
lecturers that arc growing rich from the
large profits clsared from the
sale OF farm indictments In this state.
Their large factories hslp increase their
population and build up large cities In
Illinois and oihor states. The demand 10
Increasing largely every year. Tho plow
turns over Thousands OF acres of prairie sod
every year that has never before been dis.
turbed from its natural form. The demand
for farm implements will be, much greater
In thls state than any other, for thore
is no four states that has so
largo amount OF uubroken territory
and u climate and soil that 80 many differ
ent kinds OF crops eau be produced. The
people OF the world don't know and can .
realize the great resources that Texas has.
Tho emigration 10 coming ON every train
from the east asd north. Texas IL bound
10 be tho Empire state in population, aud
10 one that Is posted In regard to the agri-
cultural resources will claim for moment
that .he WI not be the Empire state from
an nariculi ursl 'ftandnnint. The state hos
an area OF IA. e0J .quare miles, 65,OOO
miles larger than France, which has pom

OF sustaining larger population than
France.
Mr.. Monroe, ihe inventor, and other
practical Business men who are the repre-
sentatives of the improved riding rotary
harrow, double and single, and the double
cotton and corn cultiyator, are here, and
have associated themselves with the citi-
zens OF Dsllas IN this enterprise.
These machines lave been thorou ghly
tested by some OF cur best farmers who
bave bought them, and they have proved
TO he tho most perfect farm implement Tor
breaking corn or cotton stalks and for work
ling the prairie waxey sod that has ever
been invented. The great value of this
| implement to the far mer 10 very strongly
su6stantisted by cur best farmers who have
them In use on their faTms. McCormick,
The originator OF tho reaper and harvester,
| tho great labor-saving machine, required
more ingenious skill than any other farm
| implement. and many years experimenting
| TO make IL o perfect machine. Quite "a
number OF different kinds Of respers are
now made. <vnd each msnpisc-
tnrsr claims 10 have the beat.

the improved riding rotary harrow, are
the double corr ADD cotton cullivator has
required years 10 make IL accomplish the
work co much needed and brenks the stalks
works down the ridges and puts the ground
in good condition for amall grain without
plowing, saves moro than bali OF ito la
Dor.
Without this harrow.it tskes one tenn Ia
break the stalk, one team to rake aud then
burn them, which should not be done as
they should be distributed evenly over the
ground and retained as q fertilizer, then
blow and harrow. The Monroe harrow
does IL all, passing twice ever the ground.
The resper does not increase the crop, but
by the use of the rotary harrow IL is claimed
by farmers that have them that the ground
Is 30 MUCK better pulverized, and leveled so
well, that q much larger yield will be re-
allied.
