A BRUTAL GAME.

During the football season of
1908, nineteen lives were lost on
the football field, according to
the statistics presented by the
Chicago Tribune. The Tribune
says: zone boy was driven in
sane from injuries, Thirteen
players were severely injured,
some of them disabled for life.
The number of minor but pain
full accidents goes into the hun
dreds, and the list OF injured
also is incomplete. The feature
of the years tabulation is that
it shows that serious casualties
practically were confined to IN
trained players. No member of
any first class elevenS were
killed or pei manently disa bled.
One Yale player and one Har-
ward player suffered Il broken
leg. No player in any of the
teams Of the Big Nine in the
west was the victim of any hurt
worse thana wrenched shoulder,
4 bruised head, d sprained ankle
or turned ankle. In conse-
quence of the injuries sustained
by their players several of the
minor schools have forbidden
the game of football. Two
towns-Columbus Junction, Pa,
and Greenfield, O.,-have
stopped the sport as the result
of petitions circulated by pa
rents. "
We very properly prohibit
prize fighting in Texas, but it
is a very general belief among
those who have witnessed both,
that game of football, as
usually played, is u far more

boxing matches or prlze-tig

PASSING OF Eli Ranches.

u ~ - ''"'N''~o'
Old TING Texans cannot help ro-
ilcing the many changes that arc
wrought in thc general conditions
throughout the country, and often
times. no doabi. ii brings many
pangs Of regret to their minds. Less
than two decades have marked
great progress in their surround
ings and where twenty years ago one
could travel for a hundred miles
without having to cross a single
fence or pass human habitation,
perhaps, to-day there are scores Of
handsome farm houses and perfect
cobwcb Of barb wire Enclosures. The
big ranch is no more. 1t has been
swallowed up III the march Of prog
ross and is rapidly becoming "A mem
Dry Of the past. Only in the OK
trcmc western parts Of the great
Lone Star State is there left any
thing that approaches it either in
the matter of proportion or sur
roundlng>, and these are mere SEM
dances of what the ranch used to
be. Where once only cattle ranged
the broad prairics, to-day there arc
prosperous farms and thrifty lands
men, who have gained their indie
rpcndcnce through their matchless
g. fgy and rugged enterprise. Are
not these conditions an improve
mcnt over those of former wears?
Assurcdly they are. vet there arc
those who dcplorr the change. nor
can they be blamed for it. Human
nature does not change as fast as
the country, and the pioneer will
naturally cling to old-time customs
and associations. 7. J. Webb of
BaIlinger, one Of the best known
stockmen in that portion of the
state, Is among the number of old
time cowlnen who dcplore the pass
ing Of the big ranches. and wonder
what tho future has in store for
those who cannot reconcile them
selves to the existing conditions.
Mr.. Webb SAYS: "Whcn landed
in TcVas some thirty years ago
was told that the whole western and
northwestern part of the state was
worthless except for grazing pur-
poses. For many years no attempt
was made whatever to farm or raise
anything but cattle. and now all
over that section people are farming
on large scale. Twice since | To-
Gated in the state have been forced
to move further west and now | am

as the settlers are crowd;ng in very

around my ranch that year could
have been bought three years ago
for $50 an acre. now sells at from
IS to so an acre. These are the
condition all through that country,
and good crops of all kinds arc he.
ing raised, and it is but a question
OF IA little time when it will be a

A Successful Nurseryman.

. a
On Tuesday afternoon of last
week the proprietors of the
Brand, on invitation of our
friend, W. F. Stimson, enjoyed
drive out to the Hereford Muir
sery in the northeast part of
town. We hdye often heard it
said that for man to be entire,
~ successful at any enterprise
he must first IA miliariZe himself
with all the details thereof, and
that the degree OF success
achieved depends upon the
amount Of knowledge acquired.
If this be true, and it certain
" is, Mr.. Stimson will be re-
warded with success, for he has
made a careful study of and is
cOnverSant on every possible
phase of the nursery business,
and those wishing to plant trees
or shrubbery of any description
would do well, not only to pur
chase their stocks from him, but
get his ideas on planting and
cultivation.
We were first shown through
the department in which the
fruit trees were kept. Here We
found large numbers of the ia
nous Ben Davis, Wine Sap, and
all the we'll known varieties of
apples, besides complete line
of peach, pear. apricot, cherry
in fact everything that is sup
posed to grow in this section OF
the country. This nursery now
has Oh hand for immediate de-
livery over fifteen thousand
fruit trees of the different va
rietieS. In the forest tree and
shrubbery line Mr.. Stimson has
a well assorted stock, though
not as large as would be neces
sary were our people to follow
the suggestions of Mr.. Clothier,
who gave a lecture on forestry
a short time ago, during which
he stated that our people should
plant at least one million forest
trees annually for the next ten
years. However, we can assure
our readers that the Hereford
Nursery, through their connec-
ton with other reliable nurser-
les, can supply on short notice
any order for forest trees that
NAV be wanted. And right
here we wish to state that 1T
was Mr.. Clothier's advice that
the home nursery be given the
preference at all times when
buying nursery stock-the fact
that the reputation of the home
nursery must be maintained or
90 out of business causes them
to be absolutely reliable, even
though they were not disposed
to be so.
But the business of this nur-
sery is not confined to fruit and
forest trees, as was evidenced
by the large cellar full of straw
berry and other plants, bearing
delicacieS Of the season, besides
large numbers of berrybearing
bushes.
Taking all in all Hereford has
nursery OF which she may
we'll be proud and which is Il
most interesting place to visit,
whether or not you are interest
ed in nursery growing, We
might add, also, that all stock
in this nursery is grown with.
out irrigation. Mr.. Stimson,
not wishing us to return empty
handed, presented US with two
large kershaws, which, when
properly prepared, makes one
of the most delectaole OF dishes.
