Marsh has for long taken an active
interest in educational matters, and
his experience and observation in
school work on this frontier have
peculiarly fitted him for considera-
ton OF the best methods OF teaching
English to Mexican pupils. The
pamphlet should be of special in
terest to all teachers in the schools
of this section, where there are
frequently more Mexican than
American pupils, and where nearly
every recitation is of necessity as
much a language lesson as of the
subject being taught. The. place of
publication and price of Judge
Marsh pamphlet are not mention

SOME FINE FRUIT.
Bob Kleberg Shows What South
Texas Can Do In that Line.

What is pronounced to he the
finest fruit ever shown in sam An
tonic was brought to the city Mon
day by Robert J. Kleberg of Cor
pus Christi and presented to >;essrs.
Mclean d Nudge of the Menger
Hotel. The fruit consisted of white
Muscat grapes and brown Turkish
fig grown by Mr. Kleberg at Cor
pus Christi. In the opinion of both
Messrs. Mclean & Nudge whose
experience in purchasing and hand
ling fruit covers long period of
years, the results obtained by Mr..
kleberg are as good as can be found
anywhere.
The grapes are the well known
Muscat, or Alexandria, species, and
in Texas are fully four to six weeks
ahead of the California crop. The
cuttings were obtained by Mr.. Kle-
berg from California three years
ago, and bore last year, though not
so prolific as the present season.
In the opinion of Mr.. Kleberg there
Is no reason why the grapes should |
not do equally as well in the vicin-
ity of San Antonio as down on the
coast. The Texas grown grape is
as large and hardy and
probably more luscious than the
California grape, and is pronounc-
ed to be an excellent shipper for
Northern markets. The figs are
very deep brown and grow to an
unusually large size.
1t is Mr.. Kleberg's intention to
Increase his acreage in grapes. He
expresses the opinion that for
une awaits man who will go in
or grape culture in the proper way.
