Anour NICARAGUA WHEAT.

Please do US the favor of inquiring
through THE GAZETTE relative to where
farmers might procure Nicaragua wheat for
seed. We once raised large crops OF it in
this section. but our millers working under
the old systems refused to grind it As
consequence of this last there is now none
of il to be had in this part of the country
The Nicaragua wheat is sure crop with
us, sown in either fall or spring. The grain
soaked III water makes stock fl I'd supe-
rior to corn. | think every farmer in this
region OF Texas should sow a little of ii, at
least, so that, in the event of short corn
crop, he would have good substitute TO
fall back upon.
This variety of wheat is very fiinty-
about rs hard as the Turkish wheat of Ken
sas. If started among US again | believe
the urllers would use 4 limited quantity of
IL in making -four When ground alOae on
the old system it made a very strong flour
much stronger than that made of soft
wheat. VIII be glad to hear from you
through the agricultural department of
THE GAZETTE. PATRON.
Weatherford, Tex.
This correspondent is good authority
relative to the matter Of which he writes,
and is in position to give much weight to
his suggestion that the millers would now
grind Nicaragua wheat in ali probability
We were once well acquainted with the
Nicaragua wheat in another state, but just
at present we don't know of any place
where i is being grown. Any reader who
knows of where it could be had might con-
fer favor by writing US.

MORE oNTHAr DEVILS HORSE.

1t is all very well for you to poke fun at
people who write you about very dan
gerous insect called ''the devils criding-
horse" and to banter them to send YOU
specimens, Just now, for you are fully aware
Of the fact that the season of insects is over
for the present year. But, my dear sir, let
me advise you, as friend, not to keep that
kind of thing up till insects are on again for
the next season. If you do you'll getdevil's
riding horses in plenty, and before you are
through with it you'll wish you hadn't.
For myself know there is such an insect,
and that it is capable of throwing a poison
into a persons eyes and putting them out.
Some of your correspondents have de-
scribed it well, though they have neglected
70 mention one OF its peculiarities. II has
head on it shaped like unto the head of a
sheep, and this head it can turn about on
It's neck without moving its body. When
YOU come near it that head will be turned
into favorable position for taking sight at
you, and then look out 1t is always loaded,
and so soon as good range is secured on
your eyes it would be far better for you if
your eyes We're ON the back of your head.
These are facts-I know them to be facts
so now take Il FOOLS advice and draw in your
horns a little so far as relates 10 the devils
riding-horse. n. F. MOBLEY.
Waco, Tex.
- We are really sorry that it is now too late
in the season for US to expect from our
friends a few devils riding-horses capable
of putting out peoples eyes. OF course we
don't want to use them in putting out the
eyes of anyone, but merely for the sake of
variety in our focks and herds. Since they
are so bad as our correspondent knows
them to be there must be eyes enough out,
due to their work, and so we have no dis
position to increase the common misfor-
tune. As set we have met with none of
those unfortunates, but with the lights be-
fore US it would be Unreasonable to suppose
that there are not hosts of them, poor souls
BY the way, since you cannot send US 4
few devils riding horses that put out peo-
PIES eyes, could You not send US 4 clutch of
eggs in order that we might incubate lit
ter of them in our own way? This is a
brilliant idea of Our own, and we shall base
lots of hope upon it.
AS yet we have not openly questioned the
veracity of any correspondent who has
squarely told US that he "knows'' all about
the DEVILS riding horse and its dangerous
qualities. 1t is to be presumed that he
knows whereof he writes else he would not
say SO. We'd scarcely be willing to ques-
ton his veracity were he to tell US that he
knew horse-hair put into water would be
promptly converted into hair-snake There
are many people who will tell you that they
''know" this to be the fact, and what per-
son knows he ought to know, and if he
really knows it, right there is closed every
opening for further discussion. So all we
can say in the premises is that we would
much like to see one of those dangerous
DEVILS riding-horses and make his acquaint-
ance. He must be a very sly fellow in his
way, for as yet no entomologist has been
able to catch onto him.

HE CRAFTS THE PECAN.

Some time ago correspondent informed
you that he was successfully grating the
pecan, and in your remarks following his
letter you asked him. if he was not too mod
est 10 do so, TO give his methods of grating
for the benefit of us readers of THE GA
zETrE. Up to this time have been waiting
10 near from him, but since my waiting has
been in vain l conclude that he must have
been too modest, sure enough. and so. upon
this conclusion l have decided to tell you
something about my own operations in
grating the pecan, for the consideration of
al concerned. If am exhibiting immodesty
in so doing please pardon me; or, after Pat
rick Henry, if this be immodesty, make the
most OF i--as you please

the pecan with entire success, compare
iireiy speaking. I well know that the

A FARM THE BEST TREASURE.

Mr.. j. S. Clarksou, gentleman well
known as one of our deepest thinkers, says
speculation in town and city property
strangely and capriciously ruled the pro-
gress of new sections within the United
States entirely through the past decade,
and is still ruling in many localities. In
such localities town and city values are
still up, while farm values are fiat. But a
radical change is coming-the climax has
been reached, as must ever be the case,
eventually in every country or section of
country With comparatively few eX-
ceptions, where the towns or cities have
passed through their first boom of realty
speculation, there is visible check in the
advance of city property values. 1t is natural
and among the things inevitable, especially
for an agricultural region. There is moth
ing q all discouraging associated with the
matter-the town or city built largely on
the promise of advantageous agricultural
surroundings is simply waiting on its oars,
rs it were, for that surrounding country to
catch up. When this has happened, then
the town or city with natural advantages
will forge ahead again, and the surround
ings, now having a nucleus TO work upon,
will keep pace.
Such being 4 correct exhibit of the case,
every town or city aspiring to greatn ess,
and looking largely to agriculture for its
sustenance. must see the special importance
of pushing ahead the country, Almost
everything depends upon this. Start the
surrounding country on a move toward
prosperity, and the city to which that coun-
try must contribute though temporarily
checked, will not be long in getting new
move on itself. Leave the country non
progressive, and very strong card is be-
ing played against the town or city. When
the stranger comes to invest in city prop
erty he proceeds to investigate into what
there is to sustain the place. When he is
pointed to the regions agricultural capa-
bilities, but can see little in the agrlcult-
ural line going on, he a. once jumps to the
conclusion that there is something wrong
relative to the agricultural capabilities OF
the region, and so moves on and takes his
capital with him. If, on the other hand, he
sees the surroundings prosperous he is sat
isfed and the place gets a citizen with all
his means and influence.
Turning his talk towards people favor
ably disposed to life in the country Mr..
Clarkson says there could be no better in
vestment than one made in good lands sur
rounding well-started town or city. BY
the surrounding" he does not especially
mean the immediate suburbs, but anywhere
in the region conveniently tributary to said
town or city by railroad or some other
available means. He considers such in
vestments the very best that could be made
in America at the present time. Forty
acres of naturally good soil, sag in Texas,
left to any mans family is sure protection
against want. Even though the family

MUST BE A STUDENT.

The days when men could get along by an
employment of old slipshod methods in farm
ing are over. There is now too much good
farming going on to admit of it, for the good
farmer who can produce cheaply governs
the market and puts his products on sale at
figures ruinous to the slipshod farmer,
whose products cost more to raise. On this
account the Farmers Home Journal OF
Kentucky takes the position that the pro-
gressive young farmer of to-day, desiring
to really succeed, must be an earnest stu
dent and keep fully abreast with new
knowledge regarding his work The law
yer and doctor must be students as long as
they practice in their professions success
fully, and no less should the farmer be
student His calling is advancing, and he
must either fail or devote himself to study
and reading concerning his business.

l send you by express 4 small sample of
peaches dried by myself, and of my own
raising. The peaches are seedlings and
were as fine as ever saw. l obtained the
seed from seedlings of good quality and
planted an orchard, and this season the
young trees (only three years old) came into
full bearing. They have quite generally
proved true to the parents-some of them
are even better in quality than were the
originals. Test the sample l send and then
let me know through The GAZETTE if you
ever tasted any dried fruit from California
(dried in its own juice as mine has BEEN.
that you considered of finer flavor. l am
much pleased with your efforts to improve
the farmer by good ard wholesome instruc-
tons entirely devoid Of censure for his
possible shortcomings. 0. p. HAMMEL.
Bellevue, Tex.
We suppose the peaches were dried in
the sunshine, though our correspondent
does not say so. In our opinion it would
not be possible for dried peaches to be of
finer flavor and quality generally. We
have never met with anything in the dried
peach line, from California or any other re-
gion, that deserved to rank above this sam
pie sent Us by Mr.. Hammel. Truly, if
Texans don't have everything that rea-
sonable people ought to want, the shortage
must be attributed to a lack of intelligent
effort to produce it.
