Mr.. Thomas. Worthinston of Manchester,
England, who is in Amarillo in the interest
of English capitalists owning large bodies
Of land in Swisher, Randall and Deaf Smith

a GAZETTE correspondent said:
Il find Amarillo to be a live little town
with a good hotel, First national bank
building of native stone, and board of trade
building Of same. Amarillo seems quite
center for this country and 1 understand
that settlers more than half way down to-
ward the Texas and Pacific railroad draw
their supplies from this point, owing to
favorable railroad rates and fine roads,. A
stage line runs from here south through
Randall and Swisher to Plainview, the
county seat of Hale, and another line to
LaPlata, county seat of Deaf Smith county.

made flying visit to some of the lands in

have driven some seventy-fve miles over

and upon which tine evidences of settlement
are so plentiful that 1 was never long out of

Texas, little over two years ago seven
teen houses and five dugouts had sprung up
within circuit Of eight miles around his
place.
"These men come to stay They are de-
ternined to succeed and make comfortable
homes.
The advantages to the farmer in this
country are manifold A rich soil, the evil
dence of which appears indisputable, no
trees to cut down or roots to pull out,
healthy climate and fine water at from fifty
to $50 feet. The only drawback I should
fear is the irregularity of the rainfall, and
should urge farmers to lay by all they
can from good crops in order to tide over
