Being . native of Mobile County, Alabama, though now an adopted Tex an. l have never forgotten the beauty of the natural flowers of my native State. and have read with great pleas ure the article of E. F. Andrews pub liahed in The Advertiser of. April 26
 How perfectly this article, "A Natural Flower Garden" describes and recalls similar loved spots of my. childhood haunts. which indeed ito be once seen can newer be forgotten" The trees. flowers. springs. etc. of Alabama gre grand beyond description. and yet in The whole brilliant museum which law ish nature has so bountifuily bestowed, there are none more beautiful than the bright and graceful wild flowers of the Lone Star" State. Still the won der Is why this beauty has not been published abroad. Perhaps 1t Is be- cause the towering season lasts but a few months of the year. while the land scapes of Alabama and. many other Southern States are lovely the year round by reason of their magnificent pines and other beautiful growth of evergreens. r. .s.t.,
 It is quite true the prairie regions of Texas are not very attractive. after the blooming season Is over. but through the months of April. May and June 1t Is simply grand. One vast ocean of moving brilliant. glimmering loveli- ness. Gazing upon 1t for the first time one can hardly realize 1t isenot a de- lightful dream, and experience thrill of wonder over the exqulsiteness- of Gods magnificent handiwork. Great pillows of purple verbena, blue and scarlet sage, buffalo clover. standing scarlet cypress, golden coreopsis. dain- ty blue and cream flax. white leathery candy-tuft, red and yellow gaillardia, daisies, peoples, larkspur and phlox of every color. with thousands and thou- sands of others, and the ever present wind over all, bending and swaying the fragile blossoms like myrids of danc- ing sunbeams on the waves of gentle sea- Far, far, away stretches this vis- ioH of IoveIlness; far as the eye can reach, until earth and sky are blended together with a soft and shadowy mist.
