HORSE SALES.
ALL SORTS OF EXCHANGES.
THE TExAs INVASION.

- w eNStS IiNNASIONs
Yes. sir, the Texas Invasion, that's
the most fitting way to describe it. I
nave seen the on-rush of home seekers
that moved the price of the raw prai-
RES OF the Dakotas and Minnesota
from 30 an acre up to and through $40.
$40, $50, $40 and $50. I have travelled
IN coaches crowded with the ever-p pro-
gressive and aggressive American
FARMERS, sWarming over our northern
boundary line, peopling the untried
pralries of western Canada, pushing
the prices on up from two dollars to
twenty. You have seen and have seen
them proving to the world by actual
results attained, that the acres of Me-
braska, Kansas and Oklahoma were
worthy OF doubling. trebling and quad
rupling IN price, until the standard Of
value approximates that of peerless
Iowa. But 1t was reserved for the Lone
Star state to start a tide of immigra-
ton from the north such as has no par
allel in the history of the growth of our
west. And there Is reason for 1t.
The farmers Of Iowa, Illinois,
souri,, have all seen, and some of them
grasped, and soma Of them passed the
wonderful opportunities to make easy
monev in the enhancing land values In
their several states. They are fully
alive to the opportunities now offered
to get in on the ground floor in the
Panhandle and they are certainly get
ting in.'
I returned from a trip to the Pan
handle country last night. bought a
half section of that rich prairie land
while there. at cost of $4,000, and ]
expect to make a clear profit of $4,000
on 1t inside of two years. A friend Of
mine. Mr.. o. o. Phelps of this county,
also bought half section, just as fine
as land could be. In fact about every
body In our party bought, and we had
Two coach loads most all of them ex-
perienced, practical and successful
farmers from the north, and our party
was only one of many similar parties
going to the Panhandle country. We
had an entire train of land seekers, and
all roads entering the country had sim
liar experience. Land values are climb
ing higher and higher, and must con-
tinue to do so.
In our particular locality the very
best of water Is obtained in unlimited
supply at IL to 40 feet. Great crops of
alfalfa can be grown there.
II you want sure Investment,
go with us next Tuesday to Texico,
We have private dining and sleeping
cars, and for this one trip l will make
o round trip rate to men who mean
business of only .$1S. This is much be-
low the regular excursion rate, and If
you get the benefit Of it you will have
to go next Tuesday. Jan. /.
Horse Sale Friday, This Week.
Will have a good big sale, and a lot
of buyers. Am getting kilograms from
many horsemen today, who will be
here. IL you need horse for your own
use, better buy him at this weeks sale

Happy maiden and lover, dreaming the
old dreams over;
The light winds wandered by, the rob-
ms chirped from the nest.
And 10! in the meadows sweet was the
grave of a little child
With crumbling stone at the feet and
the ivy running Wild
Tangled ivy and clover folding it over
and over;
Close to my sweetheart's feet was the
little mound up-piled.
Stricken with nameless fears she
shrank and chung to me,
And her eyes We're filled with tears for

Lightly the winds We're blowing, softly
her tears We're flowing
Tears for the unknown years and a
sorrow that was to be.
