sembles her father. Her cOuntenance is decid-
edly of the Hanoverian mould. like that of the

WHEAT IN TEXAS.
What One County in the State Did this Season.
Great Grain Country.
Wirbita LIGHT


Wichita Light
The average yield of wheat for his county will
be larger than it was last year. Secretary Jos.
A Kemp of the Immigration company has made
a complete estimate of the crop so far that has
been threshed, and says the yield is over TWEEN
ty-five bushels to the acre. He has made his
calculations from crops that have been meas
ured. There has been no guess work about it.
He has not picked out few of the best crops
raised and made his deductions from them either
but has taken the crops Just as he has come to
them. Tn IS may seem . large yield to those
who live in so-Called wheat counties, but which
have failed to produce such crops, bat 1t IS new
ertheleSs true. The fact Is that this part of
Texas is Justly entitled to the name of 1.-THE
great wheat belt, - that has already been given
it, for there is no better wheat country in the
world, California and Minnesota not excepted.
1t not only raises larger crops of wheat than al
most any country but the grain IS also very line.
Experts who have examined the quality OF our
wheat time and again. say there is scarcely any
of it that viii fail to grade No. IN st. Louis
or Chicago. The great advantage, too,
that farmers have over the far
mers of other countries in the production of this
CROP that is the land IN which they cultivate It
only cost them from - to s. an acre. Nnl!e IN
California, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and Mis-
souri, the land is worth all the way from $50 TO
500 per acre. No lrrig2tlons needed mere, and
the price realized for wheat at our own doors is
even better than could be realized in St Louis if
the railroads were to transport ii free Of charge,
as the following comparison Will snow; On last
closed with No. at 725sc, Saturday opened
at nc and went down to 723sC, and closed
at 72lsc During the same time our local grain
merchants were giving all the way from &c to
Sole. The superior price prevailing here IS, of
course, due to the fact that our crop can be har-
vested earlier than in most any other state and
that comparatively small part of Texas raises
this cereal, which gives US the benefit OF home
market. Southern and Southwest Texas has her
stock. Southeastern Texas her iron and Eastern
Texas her lumber This creates market for all
the wheat that can be raised in North and
Northwest Texas, and II always COM
mands fair price This advantage
will always be maintained by this sec
tion as no other part of Texas can ever raise
wheat successfully, and our nearness to the non
wheat producing localities viii forever give MS
the advantage in the way OF freights over Kan
sas and the adjacent territory. 1t pays to raise
wheat in Wichita county and it VIII always
pay. Many man has paid the entire purchase
money OF his farm OF his first wheat crop. To
the farmers in other states who thinking Of
moving to some new country the HeTald-Light
would offer this piece of advice: Stand not upon
the order of your coming, but come at once to
Wichita county and buy good home for little
money, cultivate wheat and grow rich and
happy.
