THE LAND OF PLENTY.
Arnold Texas Farmer Gives His
Experience.

Experience.
SAN ANTONIO, June 81.
Daily LIGHT:
Having been requested to write and
give you few facts with regard to
farming and the products of the soil
in Western Texas, / concluded to do
| so. l was born and brought up upon
farm in the State of Illinois; have
been thirty-five years in Western
Texas. During that time we had two
failures of crops in this immediate
vicinity, in 1857 and 1887, but in 1877
good crops were made in the south
western portion of this county, and in
all the country east and southeast to
the Brazos river and ON the Gulf coast.
L have made 80 bushels of corn per
acre on land that had been II years in
Y corn in succession without any ferti-
\ liZing; and have made 20 bushels of
oats per acre. My son, w. M. Locke,
present district and county surveyor,
on 10 acres of land made 10 bushels
\ of oats per acre.
L have made ten tons of sorghum
fodder per acre, sown broadcast. We
get two crops per annum.
A few years since l had an acre or
two planted in drills for making
syrup. 1t grew from ten to fourteen
feet high, and many of the stalks
were one and One-fOurth inches in di-
ameter. 1 presented one stalk to Col.
H. B. Andrews, vice-president of the
Sunset road, that measured fourteen
feet and four inches in height. ct was
of the Honduras variety.)
At the present time / have a few
acres of sorghum growing, sOwn
broadcast on land that has been in
sorghum eight years (sown broadcast)
! in succession, without any fertilizing,
and it is now heading out and is from
| five to seven feet high, and is very
thick on the ground. The land is a
black sticky soil six feet deep. The
fpat crop this year is tirst-rate, and the
corn crop will be the same.
Three years ago my neighbor, VIM.
Forsyth, (also from Illinois) had eight
acres in sorghum, sown broadcast.
The first cutting yielded six tons, the
second cutting three tons per acre,
which he sold in San Antonio, at 81
per ton; $63 per acre.
Another neighbOr, Mr.. Anton Horn,
ON fourteen acres of corn made forty
seven bushels per acre, and all the
I cultivation it received was two fur
rows to the row, when the corn was
about knee-high.
Another, Mr.. Jas. H. Coker, four
miles from me, has been growing
wheat for five years in succession. His
average was p bushels per acre. His
cotton crop yielded one bale per acre.
Mr.. Nathan Linn, twelve miles
from San Antonio, on the Boerne road,
who came to this country from West
Union, Iowa, planted cotton and made
one and a half bales per acre.
Most all kinds of vegetables do re-
markably well. OF fruits-peaches,
plums, figs, pomegranates and grapes
do well. Sweet potatoes grow almost
too large.
1t is hard to get all the good things
together, but nature has given us
deep rich soil, a fine climate, and as
healthy country as there is in the
United States of America, and with
these facilities, if we do not succeed, it
must be our own fault. Respectfully,
w. J. LOCKE.
