Manning took the lead at the start, but

while, and towards the close it was nip and

which, though as yet unknown to fame.
would prove infinitely superior to very
large proportion of the plants at present
figuring in all the catalogues of our Ameri-
can florists, even considering our plants as
they now appear in the wild state. In very
many cases scientific culture would carry
them to grand results no doubt. Surely
the thing is well worth looking after, for
it must be remembered that the flora OF
Texas is peculiar fora, and that there is
only one Texas.
1t is more than merely probable that
large per cent Of the fine Towering plants
named in the florists catalogue with
Mexico put down as the country Of their
nativity, are really Texas plants. Their
character as to hardness would naturally
lead one into this conclusion, many of them
being too hardy for Mexican plants; be-
sides, not few Of the species are recog-
nized by botanists as growing wild in Texas.
How they happen TO be credited to Mexico
is L thing easy of explanation. The plants
were collected by early botanists in the
days when Texas was Mexican state, and
therefore it was entirely proper that simply
"Mexico' should go to record as the land
of their natural habitat No particular ex-
plorations seem to have been made here, or
even in Mexico, by collecting florists of our
present time

FOOLISH DAIRY EXPENSE.

Governor Hoard of Hoard's Dairyman
says among all the foolish expenses in
CURED by people engaged in the dairy bust
ness nothing exceeds keeping an inferior
COW. 1t costs just as much to support the
carcass of q cow that is running you in debt
as it does one that is giving you $50 4 year
profit Not one farmer in hundred ever
tested his cows to ascertain whether there
are not some among them actually eating
him out of house and home. How is he to
make anything at his business if he has
stock constantly falling back in point of
profit2 How is he to know that he has such
stock unless he puts forth intelligent efforts
to find it outl There are hosts of dairy
men in the land supporting two COWS to do
the work of one. Ask any of the progress
iv edairymen you know and they will tell
you that about their first step in cutting
down useless expense was to get rid of the
Improbable cow and fill her place with one
entirely profitable. To get rid of the I'M
profitable COW is thing easy enough, but
to fill her place with profitable cow is not
always so easy. But getthe profitable cow.
Buy her, breed her, get her any way you
choose, but be sure and get her.
In short, make fine and close study of
your business and all its finer economies
Don't think il cheap business, requiring
but little brains or intelligence. You are
dealing with the mysteries of animal life at
every turn, and that is one of the biggest
problems on earth.

able crop as the hop fair trial2
Men who had grown rich producing hops
in Puyallup Valley, Washington, told Col.
Herndon that crops oftwenty bales to the
acre had often been made there, yielding
gross at 40 cents pound $1,000, though the
average yield for all the hop regions was
about ten bales or 1000 pounds to the acre,
as already stated. Now, supposing that we
could get in Texas but half the average
Washington yield, or five bales to the acre,
Though there is no good reason for any
such supposition), our showing would be:
1000 pounds at 40 cents pound. $500 90
Per acre, less the COSTS. cents......... IS W
Net product per acre sal5 90
Indeed, if We could grow no more than
one-fourth the average Pacific slope yield,
600 pounds, this at 40 cents pound would
bring us sl57. 80 net to the acre. But let US
go even further and reduce the selling price
to 20 cents a pound-we would still have
our acre of land bringing in s7s15 net.
OF course there is no need of putting our
selling figures anything below the selling fig
ures Of hops ruling in other regions. Col
Herndon makes the reduction for mere argu-
ment sake. Texas hops would doubtless be
worth as much as either Oregon or Wash
ington hops, but even supposing it possible
that our product would command no more
than 90 cents pound, the reader must see
that an acre TO hops would still be entirely
more profitable than an acre to cotton.
Col Herndon suggests that the Alliance
people join together in the procurement of
a small supply of hop sets to be put TO fair
test on the different soils Of Texas. The
suggestion is certainly good one, for the
introducers of a new and profitable crop
would justly take high rank as public bene-
factors additionally to the general benefits
that their order proposes to confer.

One can not expose plant to thorough

less we will do the best we can for them.

As to Bermuda grass seed we have only
this to say: 1t is not our opinion that
single Bermuda grass seed of the genuine
Cynodon dactylon has ever yet been sold
within the boundary lines of the United
States. Bermuda grass natures no seed to
speak of in North America, and we have
yet to find the man who knows where it
does mature seed: nor have we Yet been
able to hear of any importation of Bermuda
grass seed from other countries. Der
muda grass seed has been extensively adj
vertised as for sale, and we have made ii
rule to test many Of the seeds so advertised,
but never yet have we got Bermuda grass
from any Of them-it was always something
else A patch of Bermuda grass presents
the appearance of bearing seeds, but if you
examine closely you will find every pod
blasted. BY most careful examination we
have found few live Bermuda grass seeds
where the grass grew in very wet places,
but not enough to have averaged tea
spoonful Of seed to ten acres. Texas sward
grass seeds heavily, maturing its seeds,
and since il looks much like Bermuda grass
there exists possibility that sward grass

Thanks. We know something Of the
Hampstead truck growers assoclation-it is
live concern, as its constitution published
by US last week plainly shows. If Texans
really need watermelon education our OBJ
tanning information from one Of the most eX-
tensive and best informed melon growers in
the South ought not TO be regarded as OBJ
jectionable, even though the party did hap
pen to live away off il Georgia. For our
own part we were entirely wei satisfied with
that article regardless of its having reached
US from away Of in Georgia; and even now
we do not hesitate to say that the Texan or
any other man, in the South, who follows
its directions to the letter, will not after
wards consider himself very seriously in
need of additional melon education.

THAT .CoNGo CHoKLAH.v

A man has been in this region selling Us a
new and very strange grain which ne calls
Congo ChoElah, the last word representing
the African name. The first word was
affixed by him on account of the region in
Africa where the grain was obtained. He
was with Stanley through his last African
expedition. SO he says, and procured the
grain on the Congo river near Stanley Falls
where it is extensively grown by the ma
tives-indeed it is about the only grain
crop grown there. l send YOU few grains
you will see that it is species of corn.
That is what the man said of it. The
grains though extremely smaD-smaller
than ordinary popcorn-are still, as you will
see, perfect corn grains minus the usual
hull or surface which at the grinding makes
what we call bran. 1t looks like very
small corn that has passed through some
kind of hulling machine, The man who
sold it to US said it grew up like ordinary
corn bearing single ear to the stalk, the
ear having no cob but being provided with
central stems, or something of that kind,
