liminary arrangements having
been made. it took the faculty but
a short time to classify allthe pu-
pills and active recitation work
was begun in the afternoon.
Some confusion has been had
on account of the publishers not
being able to furnish all of the
new books which had been adopt
ed by the state but the teachers
have obviated that trouble by
using the old books until the new
ones arrive.
The News reporter was not
able to give the complete total of
the number of pupils enrolled
but a member of the school
board stated that he thought the
enrolment this week would be
as large as the total enrolment
Of last year.

thereby expressing in material

confidence is not misplaced.
So that our people may know
what the farmers from the

DEAR SIR: In connection with
my residence in the Panhandle of
Texas, | would like to give the
following :
Seven years ago last January |
moved from northern Missouri
to Randall county, Texas, which
is known as the central Panhan-
die, and one Of the best counties
of the Plains, for it is the only
one in the Panhandle having two
streams of running water
through it, with an abundance of
fish in them.
Subsequently have made Sev-
en- crops here, having never made
a failure in the seven years. |
have raised corn, katfir corn,
maize. wheat, oats, barley, sor-
ghum and millet, and they have
all yielded bountifully under
proper cultivation, my wheat
having yielded as high as thirty
one bushels per acre, and oats
as high as tifty.seyen bushels per
acre.
| find that the soil responds to
proper cultivation, more readily
than any country | ever farmed
in; in fact it is the best country
ever lived in. Taking into con
the fertility of the
soil, the ineXhaustible supply of
pure water at no great depth,
the good roads, the pleasant eli
