coast country. | have now eXper-
fenced this climate since the It'll of
August and find that the tempera-
ture here varies from rs to 9S degrees,
these being the extremes of the range
of the thermometer in the shade.
The average temperature is 81 to So
degrees, and with but few exceptions
we have a nice breeze from the gulf,
which is equal to from 5 to 10 degrees
in modifying the temperature.
find that the crops through Ok

the cotton crop, though not so large
as for some years past, is equally good
and with favorable season from now

acreage and the amount Of nice prai-
rie land lying open here for grazing
purposes. is for want of some enter
priSing nOrtherner to turn it over and
plant it, to produce in abundance.
We have had sufficient rains and ev-
erything seems to be growing thrifty
and nice. Land is selling from three
to twenty dollars an acre and as for
our city of VelascO, in which | have
become a permanent fixture, | can
only see that its future is destined to
be a great market for the state OF
Texas and also Kansas and the terri
tory. There are 100 carloads
of cotton seed and cotton seed prod
ucts now engaged to pass through
this port this fall and winter. There
will be three large vessels in port here
next month to be loaded with above
products, now this is only one COO
tract and there are Others equally as
important pending and as this port
has four feet more water than Gal
weston and other facilities less eXpen-
sive, our port is sure to come to the
front in due time.
Prospects are good for making this
the port of export for the large sur
plus of grain raised in the west, as by
this route there will be only one
chlnge from the producer to the ex-
porter and the shortest rail haul
to deep water at Velasco and deep
water means cheap freights; cheap
freights mean best markets and as
soon as local facilities can be provided
for the handling of the various prod
ucts that will be accessible to this
port, VelascO markets will be placed
beside Chicago in competition for all
surplus grain.
Now while this is the situation in
brief, there is lots more might be
told. The health OF citizens here is
good. The water is cistern and artes-
ian and is in abundance and since
their new cisterns have got the wood
taste soaked out Of them, the water
is as good as any cistern water and is
abundant. To say that gulf bathing
is immense does not express it. That
the mosquitoes here will not bite is a
misrepresentat on, but have always
found them guilty Of that bad habit
wherever | have met them and |
think they are somewhat more nu-
merOus here than in Kansas and are
very industrious ulittle band, but ]
have seen the flies in Kansas equally
as bad in nibbling you every chance
they get as the mosquitoes are here,
and while they are not pleasant COM
pany, they are not so serious an OBJ
lection as some would make it ap-
pear.
We are having no boom here at
present, but a healthy growth Is in

complexion of the interchangeable" creed
In the very nature Of things every human
device Is prone to change. Pray. why
should medicine be the exception to the
