and Irish potatoes, for which va
rieties of truck this soil and climate
are so well adapted.
The principal object in establish
ing this garden is to show that,
with the sandy soil, sub-irrigation
and absence of frost which charac-
terize this island, it is peculiarly
adapted for truck growing. The
success of the experiment is ex-
pected to result in the ultimate
conversion of the whole of Padre
Island, which is ninety miles long
and from one-half to four miles
wide, into continuous succession
of truck gardens.
Further horticultural develop
ment at Tarpon Beach will include
the setting out of 100 California
fan palms which will be set one
every fifty feet on the Gulf side,
and 1000 salt cedars three to four
feet high, to be set every three
feet along both the Gulf shore and
the bay shore. The contract to
supply these trees was made Sat
urday with the Grifing Semi-tro'
ic Nurseries of Raymondville.
The object in planting the cedars
on the bay side, Mr.. Sims informs
the reporter, is to reclaim consid-
cradle area of low land where oys-
ter beds are located.
The contract with the Griffin
nurseries also includes 100 clean
ders which will likewise beautify
the Beach. q
Further provision for horticultu
raj development has also been made
by the allotment of a block o
ground to the nurseries for parl
where they will experiment witt
! willows, sycamores, etc.
Ali of the trees aud shrubs nam
ed will be set out by Feb. 1st, anc

California fan palms are especially
beautiful, and, like the oleander
and salt cedars, flourish in a sand,
coast country. They viii serve t
enhance greatly the attractions o

vollsng the so-called "unwritten law,
thar have stirred this section OF the
country recently. Within littls
over month there have been three
sush murders In Washington ane
vicinity, beginning with the killing ol
former Senator Brown, of utah, by
Annie NJ Bradley, because he wouiJ
not marry her. Shortly after the
brown murder came the Byswatei

man OF high social standing was shot
