The Secretary,
TEXAS IS ALL RIGHT.

Dallas Times Herald:
The limbering up and localizing
OF the national bank system has
destroyed the power of Wall street.
The country at large pays but lit
tie attention now to the gamblers
roost." This is especially true of
Texas, as crop diversifcation has
developed in this State a wonderful
vine and fig tree civilization. When
times were hard and cotton low in
price Texas people went in to
develop "make your living at
home and pay as you ago" policy.
Texas people are now patronizing
and developing home factories. The
boil weevil has persuaded them
that it is best not only to diversity
crops, but to cut up and sell off the
large farms and plantations. Every
census shows great progress in Tex
as, but in the next census this State
will show up better than ever
before. Texas is all right, and her
exhibit at ST. Louis will attract
many thousands of visitors.

In my last letter l spoke of the

here. 1t will begin on the last of
the month, and last 10 days. Don
Amado PeHa, son of Don Librado,
is the one to give it. He anticipates
quite a success. I hope he will be
successful. Anyhow I'll have more

From what Don Santiago Peha
tells US, the fever is still raging
at Laredo, and the deaths are in
creasing This is a bad sign, as it
shows that the fever is becoming
more malignant. One good thing
there is they will soon have frostl
Another good thing is, that the
fever seems confined to Laredo and
the vicinity. Every time take up
a paper dread to see report that
1t has broken out at home other

from Laredo before quarantine was
declared mag cause it to break out

o'clock in the morning Miss Carolyn
Merrill entered the Grain Belt saloon,
inquiring for her lover. Joe Naffziger,
the proprietor ON being told that he

there. After q brief conversation she
reappeared and drank an ounce Of car
bolic acid, which she had procured at
a drug store on her way to the saloon.
She was removed to the Commercial
hotel, where she expired In about two
hours.
The couple had been engaged about
three months. Last evening during a
drive Naffziger broke the engagement.
The young woman spent the night
grieying for the love she had lost. On
her person were found letters Of fare
well to Naffziger and her brother, say
ing she "could not live without Joe's
love-" and begging God to forgive her
for the deed she was about to commit.
Miss Merrill came here last Novem-
Der from near Guthrie Center, Iowa,
where her mother lives. She was Fl

all who knew her. A brother, Frank
Merrill, is employed in the Commercial
hotel. A sister, VINO lives in Portland,

It frequently becomes desirable to

cattle back and forth.

Small Farms to Be the Ru1e.

Small Farms to Be the Rule.
In the future small farms will be the
rule. More and better products will be
raised on 60 acres than are now on 120
acres. There are farmers to-day who
plant 40-acre field in corn who could
take the same amount of manure they
used and put 1t on'a 2O-acre field, and
get a greater yield and Of better quail
ity. Besides this, 1t will take only halt
the time to pillow and cultivate the 20
acre field, which would further add to
the profits. What a lesson the market
gardeners are constantly giving to ua
farmers. Why, some Of them use more
barnyard manure on 20 acres than
some farmers do on 100 acres. The
crops the gardeners get are enormous
and their land is constantly increasing
In fertility.
