TEXAS AHEAD, AS USUAL,

The United States department of agricul-
ture report on the condition of crops, aver
age yields, ETC., is before US for October
1891. A glance at the tables relating to
average yields shows Texas far ahead of all
the other Southern states proper, as usual.
The averages per acre in bushels are given
on the crops then harvested as follows:
Wheat-Texas, 100; North Carolina, 6S;
South Carolina, So; Georgia, rs; Ala
bama, So Mississippi, rs; Arkansas, 90;
Tennessee, 81.
Rye-Texas, ILL.,; North Carolina, 20;
South Carolina, 60; Georgia, 30; Ala
bama, rs: Mississippi, 10; Arkansas, SO;
Tennessee, ST.
Oats-Texas, 2f.5; North Carolina, 95;
South Carolina, 100; Georgia, III; Flor
ida, ia; Alabama, 12.S; Mississippi, lis;
Louisiana, l1.3; Arkansas, 1875; Tennessee,
144
Barley-Texas, 1872; Tennessee, 1877.
Of the ten Southern states on the list,
Florida and Louisiana raised neither wheat
nor rye, and Texas and Tennessee are the
only states that seem to have raised barley
Aside from her much greater yields there
is another thing to take into consideration,
which shows vastly to the advantage of
Texas as an agricultural state. The Texans
used no fertilizers in the production Of their
crops. while the farmers of all the other
states, with the exception, possibly, of
Louisiana and Arkansas, were forced to
fertilize heavily.
With these plain facts from an official
and impartial source staring US squarely in
the face, one can scarcely help feeling him
self at a loss to make ont why it is that
every farmer in the other states. who de-
sires to do the best that can be done at his
calling, does not make an effort to transfer
himself to Texas.

at peanut culture made within the state,
j. p. STEELE, EDITOR.

at peanut culture made within the state,
| but our familiarity with the crop in other
states led US to feel that Texas possessed
every natural. requirement for the crop,
| and that, therefore, it might be made a
grand success here. Those articles led to
the making Of several tests this season,
some of them on pretty large scale. From
each of these, SO far as we have yet heard,
the report is entirely favorable-the crops
have panned out better, even, than we had
predicted that they would.
Among the peanut testers of this section
of the state was Mr.. ]. NJ. Robbins of Fort
Worth. He planted small patch on sandy
lands two miles northeast Of the city. His
crop is now harvested, and the yield has
proved so enormous as to as tonish all who
see what he has gathered. With many
punches. grown from single seed. he has
brought up half gallon as fine nuts as ever
went upon the market. Numerous nuts
measured by us have averaged two and one
fourth inches in length, and contains three
perfect kernels.
Any person des1rous of seeing what the
peanut may be made TO do in Texas can &C
commodate himself by calling at Mr.. Rob-
bins painting, papering and glazing estab-
lishment on East First street between Jones
aud Calhoun. The vines are there on eXhi-
bition with the nuts and leaves still hang
ing on them just as they grew.
The lands upon which this test was made
were the ordinary sandy lands of Texas
with sandy-loam subsoil. No fertilizers
were used, and no special attention was
given the crop in its culture. Mr.. Robbins
says no other growth in that region APP
peared to stand drouth so well-after all
weeds and grass had been parched and fin
ished up by the dry weather the peanut
vines appeared as green and fourishing as
in early spring, and SO remained until har-
vested.
This fairly settles the question of peanut
culture for Texas. As stated by US in
former article, Texas ought to be leading
the world in peanut production. The
quality of her product must rank in the
very highest grade, as to excellence, and
the heavy yield within her capabilities
must make the crop one Of the most profit
able crops that could be grown.
1t has been intimated by some of our pea
nut roasters that Texas nuts do not roast
up SO well as nuts from other regions.
This is all nonsense, undoubtedly. If any
one has found Texas peanuts not roasting
as we'll as nuts from other states, it has
sprung from the fact that they were not
thoroughly dry Green or Indrie6 nutS
will never roast well. A thoroughly dried
peanut roasts the same, no matter where it
was grown.

MUST PRODUCE SOMETHING.

The Baird Star seems to be in full accord
with US in our position to the effect that q
region of country must produce something
ere it can become entirely prosperous. 1t can
not get along all right if it depends solely
upon the products of other regions-it must
of itself add something to the worlds goods
as an original product of its own, and the
more it adds in this way the greater its
prosperity. And the Star goes on further
to an advancing of the idea that the same
rule holds good with relation to indiyid-
uals. Some farmers, says the writer. are
so busy saving the country and telling what
ought 20 be done to make the people pros
porous that they have no time to attend to
the weeds and crab grass in the cotton
patch, so they don't make the cotton patch
produce much, save hard times for them
selves. If money was floating down every
stream in the land and sub-treasuries ex-
listed by the score, a man must produce
something, or he could not get dollar"
His talks on saving the country might do
something towards boosting few leaders
into fat positions, but so far as he himself
was individually concerned it would never
pay for the salt in his corn-dodger
OF course the farmer has Just as much
right to talk about saving the country as has
the man of any other calling, and doubtless
he makes as much at it as do the chin-musi-
clans in other pursuits-it don't pay any of
them. The bell-wethers of the flock get it
ali, and on &c secured they very soon forget
all about how they got it.

! PLANNING TO RAISE BARLEY

Please refer me to some firm handling
barley, in order that l may draw upon them
for information with reference to prices
paid, the best variety for the market, and
whether or not barley sowed in Decemb Der
and January is suitable for brewing pur-
poses.
1t is very dry in this section and there is
little blowing done as yet.
l would like to sow some other paying
crop in addition to wheat. Have been
thinking of trying barley, rye and
flax. Is there any market for rye in Fort
Worthl Where would be found the best
market for fax, and what does fax usually
sell at2 l fully believe that flax would
do well in these parts.
Wichita Falls, Tex.
We would refer you to the Texas brew
ing company, Fort Worth, Tex. This firm
handles an immense quantity of barley, and
is interested in having as much of it pro-
ducedanear home as possible. The concern
would doubtless favor you with all the bar
ley information that you might ask for.
Barley and rye would do better in Texas
than in any other Southern state-see oupj
first article appearing on this page. We
think there is always fair market for4 good
rye in Fort Worth.
As to fax culture in Texas, we think it
highly probable that flax might be Grown
very well, though we are not sure that it
would be an overly profitable crop-it is not
considered q crop of much profit, now.a-
days, in any of the states Of this country,
therefore American fax culture is rapidly
ON the decline. We have no information

them up by the fruit, but would like ex-
tremely well to get some of the seeds, in

FINS, Tex.
The old Spanish strain of peaches may be
met with in almost any Of the older settled
portions of Texas, particularly in the re-
gions well back from the railroad lines. Q
The people would not be apt to call them
Spanish peaches, as rule, but would refer
to them merely as seedlings" Any good
peach found in those back regions, that had
not sprung from nursery, would be very
apt to be safe enough to risk. There is no
one to whom we could refer Just now but
1t may be that our articles mentioned by
our correspondent have induced many per-
sons to save seeds of good varieties of seed
lingS on their places, II so. thew coIlld con-
fer favor on him and US by informing Mr.
Gordon of the fact, provided they could
spare him some seeds.

From Our Regular Correspondent
It's a civilized county-at least, we think
it is-and yet civilization doesn't seem to
take the form of doing the most good or the
greatest amount of kindness possible. Yes
terday, stood by the Union League club
house, one of a group of five; four were
watching one.
IN FRONT OF NEW YORK CLUB.
She was woman, or at least the rem
nant of one; she had fallen against the rail-
ing of that respectable institution for old
frumps; she had cut her head badly; there
was dreadful cash on her hand and she
was bleeding horribly. The sympathizing
crowd consisted of gentleman. who had
helped to pick her up, two curious messen-
ger boys and myself. l wasn't much use
except in the way of wiping the blood of
her face; but one of the boys gave the
whole keynote to the situation when he
said: ''She's pore old woman, anyhow,
Jimmy" That was just it. She was poor
and she was old, and it's just possible she
was drunk; but drunk or sober, young or
old, think it was contemplate and mean
to let her lie there on the pavement in the
cold and rain with the doors of the Union
League club closed against her while she
waited for an ambulance. 1t may be that
it was the clubs objection to admitting
women, but very few men will get into
heaven
UNLESS A WOMAN TAKES THEM THERE,
and l couldn't help but wonder if the rules
of the club were so severe that this poor
old wretch couldn't have been taken into
the kitchen, given something to eat, been
warmed up, and allowed to sleep for little
bit. / don't think she would have cursed
the world so generally as she did if she had
received this treatment; but I suppose the
only thing the club men have to do is to
elect governor or mayor, or see that the
street Immediately in front of the clubhouse
is kept clean.
Or was it because she was drunk? fail
to see how that stood in her way-there
have been drunken men in different club
houses, and while half the newspapers and
three-quarters of the women are screaming
for their rights, do not understand why,
among her others, woman hasn't right
TO get drunk. 1t isn't nice thing to do
it's very unnice thing But it ought not to
be denied to one when every other right,
including that special one of supporting
A HUSBAND AND LOT OF BABIES
is given to lovely woman. Personally, I
have no desire to get drunk.

woman, whose worst crime probably was
