THE MUTTON INDUSTRY.

In connection with the growing
Of wool it may not he amiss to
mention the Importance of the
mutton industry. The fattening
of mutton for the market has
grown to be so safe and profit
able that great many sheepmen
devote their attention entirely to
that branch of the sheep business.
The sheep are run on the ranges
through the winter and spring
months and fattened on the green
weeds and grass, and are shipped
to market in the early spring, be-
ginning about April Is,
1t is stated that in the neigh
borhood of 115, 900 muttons were
shipped from San Angelo this
year, bringing an average price of
$3 per head which would make a
total of about 1850, 900.
Captain Franklyn said that the
sheep and wool business in the
San Angelo country is in a much
better condition than 1t has been
for some time. Favorable seas
ons have prevailed which permit
ted the sheep to fatten readily on
the luxuriant grass, ETC., and the
sheepmen will make good money
in the industry all over Texas.
Favorable season and good prices
for wool and muttons have done
for Texas sheepmen this season
what it has not done IN twelve
years.
Captain FRANKLIN also said
that the cotton crop IN the San
Angelo country was in fine con-
dition. Although late the plant
was clean, healthy and maturing
rapidly. The rains of the past
few days have done the cotton
great good, practically insuring
it, He says that prosperity exists
everywhere in Texas this year and
the farmers and stockmen are all
happy.

LATE CALF CROP WAS GOOD.
Things Look Rosy In Scurry County,
Texas, Says j. NJ. shannon.

j. M. Shannon, q veteran Texas
cowman and member of the
firm of Bourne IL Shannon, who
operate one of the largest ranches
in Scurry county, was in yester-
day with a string of seven car
loads of steers. Mr.. Shannon re-
sides at Ozona, where he is inter-
ested in the banking business. He
is also connected with banks at
other towns in that part of the
state. says the Drovers Telegram.
"Texas is all right this year."
remarked Mr.. Shannon, "and the
cattlemen will round out a sue
cessful year. There is plenty of
grass everywhere, and / do not
remember the time when all kinds
of stock looked better. We have
hadk favorable season all along
and wherever grain is grown in
the state the crops are also look
ing well. The cotton crop will be
success, and ut the present
prices will make good money for
the producers.
1.-The early calf crop was poor,
owing 10 doubt to the fact that
there were several severe storms
just about calving time, but the
late crop is good, and the, calves
as well US the COWS are dong we'll
If the prices on good grass stuff
are reasonable, there will be big
run of Texas cattle to market
during the next three months.
We have 4 200 head of steers on
pasture in the Usage nation,
which we intend TO market right
along if prices are right. They
are in good condition."

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

While we are only a hundred and
forty miles from San Antonio, on
an air line, it takes three days to
make the journey by rail. We all
like San Antonio and are anxious
to do business here, but we can
get goods from Fort Worth, Dal-
las and Kansas City quicker.
Speaking of San Angelo, Mr..
Spencer claimed that the bust
ness element there is up-to-date
in every particular, and that their
hands are in their pockets on the
slightest appeal for improvement
or commercial development.
The city gave $4,000 and right
of-way to the Mexican Orient
Railroad and took $25, 900 in the
construction stock. AS an in
stance of San Angeles up-to-date-
ness, Mr.. Spencer said that its
Worlds fair pro rata Of $1,000 has
been raised in few days without
the slightest difficulty. If the
railroad was undertaken, he is of
the opinion it would not only be
well supported by San Angelo and
intermediate towns, but that
ranch owners would make large
donations of land. He feels con-
fident that if San Angelo had a
route into San Antonio the for
mer place would have popula-
tion of 10000 IN q few years.
President llildebrand of the
Business Mems Club has agreed
to take the matter up with the
railroad officials with view to
ascertaining whether such a route
is considered practicable, and
whether there is any probability
of road between the two points
ever being constructed.
In view of the immense advan-
tages that would accrue to San
Antonio from the construction of
this road, President Hildebrand
expresses the opinion that the
business element of San Antonio
would make liberal contributions.

ARKANSAS PASS TO ANGELO
Prominent Business Man OF Our CRY
Tells Santonc Business Club
Few Things.

The following appeared in the
San Antonio Express of Thursday,
July Goth, and evidences the fact
that Austin Spencer, like other
San Angelo business men is al
ways wide awake, whether at
home or elsewhere, to the best liz
terests Of the Queen Of the Con-
chos:
According to Mr.. Austin Spen-
Ger, a prominent merchant and
member of the Business Mems
Club of San Angelo, who with his
family is in San Antonio on II
periodical visit, the people Of San
Angelo and vicinity are very de-
sirous of direct railroad connec-
ton with this city, and Mr..
Spencer has asked the Business
Mems Club of San Antonio to
take the matter up with the San
Antonio d Arkansas Pass Railroad.
Mr.. Spencer stated Wednesday
that the people of San Angelo
would meet the City Of San An
tonic halt way on any proposition
which would secure this railroad.
lie says there is but a 1iO-mile
gap to be closed up, and that San
Angelo will put up $50, 900, if not
more, for the road to Kerrville,
and guarantee every inch of the
right-of-way.
San Angelo is a thriving town
of 5000 inhabitants, situated on
the Concho river, and IS the CEN
ter of the finest cattle and aggri-
cultural territory in Texas" said
Mr., Spencer. "The building of
the road would develope this
country and insure immense reve.
nues from freight and passenger
fares.
"There is a large wholesale
trade in our section, which natur-
ally belongs to San Antonio and
which formely came to this city.

management made a price on adj
vertising space to one of the big
department stores mentioned in
the following article. The firm
would not pay the price, but it
did not deter them from getting
their business before the people
here in another way. \ short
time after our price was made

Angeles streets advertising GER
tain lines carried by the firm
mentioned, and it is needless to

The following remarks by the
Eastland Chronicle make very
plain the proposition why people
trade with these houses and there
is absolutely no other hypothe-
sis for an explanation. Every
man in the mercantile business is
up against competition both
locally and from the big Depart
ment stores Of the cities and
printers INK is the great lever of
competition, that gives the big
department store nearly every bit
I of patronage they draw from the
local merchants territory, and
the local merchant can meet
them in no other way than
through the intelligent use of his
home paper and its printing de-
partment. Following is the
article from the Chronicle, re-

from making trip through the
sheep-growing districts in
among them San Angelo,
Saunders, Kerrville, Spoflord
Junction, Del Rio and Cormick,
and at each place he found great

Captain Franklin estimates
that the total wool clip in Texas
this season will reach in the
neighborhood Of 100000 lbs,
which is much less than it was
before the year 1881, when the
annual output reached all the way
up to 33,OOO,0OO pounds in the
state.

THE SAN ANGELO CLIP.

The spring wool clip marketed
at San Angelo this year, Captain
Franklin conservatively estimates
to be about $500, 900 pounds. Of
this amount nearly 100, 200 pounds
is twelve-months wool and
brought from 1Gi to II cents per
pound, while the remainder is
short or eight-months wool ard
brought from If to Is cents per
pound. The larger portion OF the
clip has already been sold, most
of it going TO Boston buyers.
There is in the neighborhood of
100000 pounds of wool in the
warehouses in San Angelo being
held by the growers expecting an
advance over the present prices.
The San Angelo market is con-
sidered the largest in Texas, and
every year the wooden mills in the
East send representatives there to
buy. This season there were at
least q dozen companies repre-
sented. TO show the Importance
of San Angelo as n wool market
it is stated that one farmer who
lives in Floyd county, 300 miles
away, brought $1,000 pounds of
wool to San Angelo in order to
receive the advantage of COMPETE
tive bids by the great Eastern
