CROP CONDITIONS OF TEXAS
An Item of Interest to All Truck Growers
in Texas.

San Antonio, Texas, March.
"a, 1oOS.-Reports received at the
railroad headquarters, and from
other sources show the crop siuta-
ton in Texas to be more promis-
lug than it has been in the past
t1irty-6ve years. Copious rains
this winter have put the ground ia
excellent condition and there has
been sufficient fair weather for the
farmers to take full advantage of
the situation and go forward with
their work. Already cotton plant
ing is going on favorably although
formerly cotton was not planted
until late in April. By early plant
ing the crop natures before the
boil weevil develops, and also the
danger of dry weather is avoided,
This year the farmers of Southwest
Texas are further reducing acreage
in cotton and are raising peanuts,
corn, sorghum cane and other
crops. A great many of them are
also putting in fruit orchards es-
pecially oranges; figs aud pears.
The onion crop is now being
gathered and reports show that it
will be the largest crop in the
history of Texas. Last year the
crop amounted to over one thou
sand car loads, and this year s
crop, it is stated will amount to
fifteen hundred car loads, which at
the prevailing price will be worth
a million and half dollars.
