Dear Brother: -My experience
in Wheeler and Collingsworth
Counties has taught me to believe
they are the coming Counties of
Texas in agriculture. have
seen as fine products grown here
as | have seen any where in my
travel. These counties are locat-
ed in the extreme eastern part
of the Pan Handle country,
bordered on the east of Okla
homa. We are east of what is
termed the Plains country. Our
altitude is about 220O feet or 1000
feet lower than the plains which
makes vast difference in the
climate and rainfall. Our Gil
mate is adapted to raising all of
the cereals, and we have an
average rainfall of - to so
inches, which is sufficient to
grow any crop. This country
has long been adapted to stock
raising and still thousands of
fine bred Herfords are marketed
every year from our city. The
The soil is a short grass loan
and rich sandy loam, under laid
with red clay, making it one of
the most productive and drouth
resisting soils in Texas. A por-
ton of the land is rough and
broken, suitable only for pasture,
but supplied with everlasting
springs, and q great variety of
the finest grasses. This affords
good opportunity for mixed
husbandry which is the only
successful plan of farming.
Corn wheat, oats, kaffir corn
peanuts, alfalfa, maise, cotton,
stick peas and vegetables and
fruits Of all sorts are grown
successfully. Average yield from
1903 to 1909. Corn 80 bu., wheat
l8 bu., oats 40 bu., cotton 1-2
bale. alfalfa 8 tops per acre.
CroNs are produced with the
least amount of labor | have
ever seen. Hardly ever more
than two civilizations ever given
to Q crop. | feel this is the best
cheap land / nave ever found any
where. 1t may be bought from
SO 10 SD per acre IA to IL cash
are the terms usually required,
making it easy to secure homes
with very little mony. This
land has more than doubled in
value III the last three years and
is sure TO do SO again in the newt
five. The rate of tax is very
light, being only l. Shamrock
is the main trading point OF these
counties. 1t is practically three
years old and has from FIVE to
seven hundred population, and
Is sure to make a steady growth
as it has such a large farming
area surrounding it. Products
are marketed from thirty to
fourty miles north and south.
We have two good banks, two
lumber yards, five general stores,
two drug stores, two gins and
four daily passenger trains. The
people Of Shamrock are strictly
up to date, affording good rchools
churches and splendid society.
The altitude and latitude of this
country make it one of the most
healthful climates found any
where, and in fact, it is fast be-
coming a resort for the sickly Of
the states. | feel now is the
opportunity for one to invest in
this land, and get the rise in
valuation which will prove a
fortune tO many

Burton'S Thankless Job.

The collapse of all party opposition to Tom L..
johnson and his unanimous nomination for the
Cleveland mayoralty last week straight low. fare
platform, condemning every attempt to inject State
or National politics into the local street railway is
sue, shows that Burton has big job cut out ahead
of him. The indications that the Cleveland con-
gresham is being used to pull some traction chest
nuts out of the fire while ostehsibly working to
strengthen his party lines If he succeeds the credit
will go to President Roosevelt, who urged him to
break into the fight while if he loses, all RESPONSE
biity for the downfall will be disclaimed.
Roosevelt and Taft have both hedged considerably
when it what fire their ill-advised plan to
extract little prestige of purely local fight
was drawing Burton doubtless would back out of
the situation if he could. The only plausible
issue he has is that he is fighting to relieve Ceve
land of johnson ring which is extravagant and ar
bitrary. But Cleveland has endorsed the Johnson
extravaganza number of times already Cleveland
people rather proud of the fact that they spend
as much as they do municipality and for their public
schools, claiming that they get for their money
than the average city does. Burton, of course
if beaten in this contest still has string on his
gressional seat His experience WILL however, serve
to warn other accommodating friends of the Whole
Thing at Washington what such service costs and
how thankess is the task.

Taft Around the World.

Taft has at last sailed his trip around the
world. The tour of course includes stops at all
points where there cable stations, thus giving
him opportunity to remind the people back at home
of his continued existence and enabling him to
periodically inject hot air into the presidential boom
which 80 persistently shows signs of collapsing.
That is the real object of the trip although the at
tempt is made to deceive the people into the belief
that he is obeyng the call of duty and leisurely
rushing to the Philippines for the purpose of
pumping additional doses of civilization into his
wards, the Igorrotes He expects to visit the en-
peror of japan and the crowned heads of Europe and
doubt his thoroughly advertised landing at New
York will be timed to nicely most effectively in
huence the selection of delegates to the national
vention. 1t is roundabout way to land delegates,
but is the only way left all other methods having
failed. In the meantime Senator Foraker will man
age to keep busy, and by the time the world tour is
completed we the distinguished secretary
and heir-apparent that the Ohio situation will be in
hrst- class shape-for a row.
