@I1 S great many Of my old acquaint-

circumstances, though l can think over
the past and old Lawrence seems a great
deal more like home. was asked by
several to let them know the difference
in farming here and there. A man can
cultivate forty acres here as easy as he
can fifteen Or twenty in Lawrence
20 in cotton and 20 in corn. The aver
age yield here in cotton is one-half bale
per acre; corn 40 bushels.
Some wanted to know about the wood
and water. Texas has just as fine els
tern water as you will find anywhere,
and plenty of csterns. As to timber, |
am surrounded by as fine skirt of seven
hundred acres of timbered land as YOU
will find anywhere. I am not saying
this to influence anyone to move tc
Texas, but just answering the many let
ter8 through your paper.
l have been asked by several the price
of improved land. Land ranges all the
way from $l5 to $40 per acre. pait
$42 per acre, though my land is neal
our little town, Oyilla. Some one ask
how is the weather. You can be plow
