hospitable homo Of Tate Parker.
Next morning we came to Hyl-
ton, a thriving little country town.
Here we saw some Of the prettisst
flower gardens, and the inhabitants
pride themselves on living In the
garden spot of Texas. Passing on
down Valley Creek we saw one
nice farm joining the other. This
country having been settled for a.
number of years IS in high state
Of cultivation. Crops all along
this valley are good. Leaving Val
ley Creek we again came to black
land prairie country, and it ia need
less to say that tits settled by hun
dreda of Bohemian and German
farmers. The last Is miles towards
Ballinger; the country is broken
and rocky, and of course not suited
for agriculture.
/ We we're greatly surprised when
we came in sight of Ballinger to
find city in this western country.
Ballinger. the county seat of Run
nells county, is beautifully situated
on both banks of the Colorado
river, having been the terminus OF
the Santa Fe railroad for number
of years, but this road has now
been extended as far west as San
Angelo. Ballinger is doing an ex-
tensive business, having large
and good surrounding country.
Most of the business houses are
built of native rock. quarried in
and close to town. The people all
seem to be enterprising, and that
there is some money in that coun-
try is shown by the fact that there
are three national banks in BALM.
ger. A number of people here are
riding about in automobiles.
While in Ballinger we had the
pleasure to meet A. J. zappe,
brother to VIM. Zappe, of this place;
also Aug. voelkel, a former citizen
of Sinner, who are, all doing very
well in their new homes. Just be-
fore We were ready to leave we met
our friend, A. G. Wandel, who had
been out prospecting, and we board
ed the train and started home TO-
gether.
Along the road from Ballinger to
Brownwood you see all kinds of
country and crops, AT Brownwood
we had supper, and from there on
we could not see much of the coun-
try.
At 2 a. m. we came to Cameron
