w hnt Farmer says Oh on

Rev. j. A. Peters, n resident ofMarion-
field, II town on the Texas q Pacific rail-
way, twenty miles west of Big Springs,
exhibited ut the HERALD Office yesterday
five samples of this years wheat raised
on land around Marionfield. The gen.
tleman was interviewed by the HERALD
regarding the agricultural outlook of
Martin county, I'm which the town
named IL situated. He said there was a
colony of forty families around Marion
field, all engaged lin farming. Twenty
five IN ore families will be added in Au-
gust. For proof of the success
Peters pointed to his specimens of wheat,
which, he said, could yield fifteen
bushels of wheat to the acre this season.
The crop was injured by the rains, and
is less per acre than for the season Of
1888.

was asked by the HERALD man.
ave have all we want and more too"
was the reply.
The reverend gentleman went
on to eulogize on the
great change in the development
of the country. He described the area
cultivated by his colony, which is made
up cnlcny Oh l"WultllS anu peOple iIoHi
the Northwest, as II by 10 miles in size.
Water Is obtained ut fifty feet depth
and is soft and sweet. No
brackish water is encountered mt all.
The families ire generally well to do,
and some of thom went out to Marionfeld
with $500 N cash. Good or
der and morality is required
of all. Two families were
sent away, because there was not the
proper respect shown by them to the
| laws. AS TO fruit, he said, out of l5O
peach trees set out, but one was lost.
Trees do well, although there Is no
natural growth of trees around. Rad
ishes of two pounds weight are raised
and are sweet, juicy and palatablc. For
fuel cedar wool Is used and proves salts
factory, though from what Rev. Peters
said about fue 1t was evident that was
one thing not 100 plentiful. The speci-
mems of wleat shown I'm this
office are full-grained, healthy,
and of good size. Altogether,
the country ab,ut Marionfeld is repre-
scented to be a good stock and farming
section. Rev. Peters is here to buy
milch cows ant other cattle for use in
the colony.

Solid for ireland and Gibbs.

McGREooR, June 2i.-ISpecial.l-Our
county seems to be solid for Ireland and
opposition to them anywhere in the
State. McLennan county holds her
primary election on July 18th. Hon: B.
w. Rimes, our present District Judge,
seems to be the most popular candidate
for his present position. McLennan and
Falls compose this district.
