TIE Talk OE TEXAS.

Rice Culture Is Foremost In Mind of
Investors.
Bansas City Drovers Telegram.
After spending the greater portion OF his
life In grand old Missouri and amassins
comfortable fortune, t. ]. Don Carlos,
q prominent farmer and feeder of Chandler,
Clay county, was lured to Texas by tales
of the wonderful crops Of rice, fruit ana
garden truck made Ia the southern portion
Of that State.
Mr.. Don Carlos was in Kansas City yes
terday on his way home from Rock Island.
Texas. He was laden with many bundles
and packages Of sugar cane rice ia the
sbeaf, flowers fruit, and grasses raised on
the Texas soil He had stalks of cane
twelve feet in length, sprigs OF Bermuda
grass over nine feet in length, and Japa-
nese persimmons weighing five ounces
which were taken from young trees just
beginning to bear
From Mr. Don Carlos talk one might
be led 10 believe that the rice belt was
the original location OF the Garden OF Eden.
Flowers are blooming down there with all
the luxurisnce of growths in the TROPICS,
strawberries will ripen by Christmas and
the tables Of the farmere are laden with
new potatoes and fresh vegetables OF all
kinds.
The climate ne pronounces superb. The
coolest day experienced In many years was
only degr1.s above zero and that year
Is degrees % January was the coolest re
corded. Rainfall up TO November IS was
forty-two inches.

$1,000 5000

=.
AS a business proposition, the approprta-
tion above recommended for this depart
ment is small amount TO spend In at
tempting to mitigate 80 great q loss.
What business house with an annual
product Of $500, 900, 900 would hesitate an
instant in expanding $4,000, or twice, or
thrice that amount, in seeking means TO
duct with a value Of $4,000, ooo7 the farm
ers Of Texas can far less AFFORD to stand
such a loss
Other States have found money appropri-
sted for chronological work TO be wei
invested. Maryland with twenty-three
counties appropriates 5000 year for work
on insects and plants diseases. New York
spends $4,000 year for nursery and or
chard inspection of insects and diseases,
besides supporting three capable, expert
entomologists at two experiment stations
and a State entomologist with two assist
ants Ohio appropriates $4,000 for nur-
sery and orchard inspection aud has an
entomologist at the experiment station.
Illinois is spending $4,000 for similar work
and has for years appropriated from 5000
to 5000 for the office OF state entomolo-
gist, with three or four assistants, River
side county, California, Ia alone expanding
$1,000 per annun for the inspection and
treatment of her orchards for insect pests
Can the wealthy State OF Texas AFFORD IA
allow her agricultural interests TO suffer
from insects, in the light OF tho experience
OF other States in prohtably combating
theml
1t behooves the State Of Texas to amply
endow the office OF State entomologist
which Is a department Of the Agriculture
and Mechanical college Of Texas, so that Il
may Investigate and demonstrate to It's
farmers the hest means OF combating insect
pests now known, and 30 that e may h,
prepared to promptly take up the study o
any new Insects whose sudden outbreal
may require considerable immediate study
to prevent losses.
