poor so they did not do well and
then. too, the climate was too cold.
G Onderdonk of Victoria, stated
that the magnolia and the Brunswick
were not synonymous. They were two
distinct varieties. that the magnolia
is a yellow fig while the Brunswick is
purple He stated that the way the
magnolia fig received its name was
about fifty-four years ago when he
came to Texas, that man appeared
in the neighborhood stating that he
was from Tampico, Mexico. He
brought small trees which he sold to
everyone in that locality for magnolia
trees for the sum of 81 each. These
trees. upon growing, were found to
be not magnolia trees, but fig trees,
and from this beginning the trees
took the name of magnolia figs
A motion was made by Mr.. Kerr
that, owing to the confusion of names
in the fig section of the United States
the nemeiclature committee of the
American Pathological Society be re-
quested to ask Geo. c. ROding oil

and G. L. Tarbor of Florida to CO.

motion was unanimously carried.

Yoakum's Address.

Last night the convention was
called to order at eight o'clock by
Will B Munson, president of the
State Horticultural Society. There
being none of those present who
were on the program, Mr.. Munson
spied B. F. Yoakum, one of Ameri-
cas- railroad kings, in the audience
and called upon him for an address,
to which Mr. Yoakum readily re
sponded. AS h walked from his seat
in the rear or the room to the speak
er's stand he was greeted with the
most vigorous applause. Mr.. Yoa-
/ kpm spoke as follows;
Texas has 35 millions of acres
of land without railroad facilities, or
to put it in another way, the citizens
of 50 counties must go out of their
own county for rail transportation
There are two essential factors
in the development of a country;
first the locomotive, and second, the
pillow.
IF Texas had today what it is
waiting for, which is an additional
10000 miles of railroad through
its sparsely settled territory, and
land values increased only s.
an acre for ten miles on either side
of this new mileage, the increase il
land values would amount tc
$40, 100000 or, on present basi;
of taxation. the taxation on lanc
alone would be increased two mil
lion seven hunder dand fifty thOus
and dollars, besides an additions
taxation of two million five hundred
thousand dollars on the new rail
roads constructed to serve the coun
try traversed.

land values in the domain of thu

Coast of our state. which was, unit

How to Plant Roses

Invariably roses should be
planted by themselves, for they
thrive poorly unless allowed to
absorb the entire nourishment of
a rich soil. Indeed, many grow
ers believe that certain varieties
do best when living apart from
even those of nearest kin, and
make up their rosariums with
many beds, each holding one
kind OF rose or set the platt in
rows with ample room left be-
tween for cultivation. June how

Senator "Lorimer

The unexpected, the ~undesired,
the monstrous has happened in
Illinois,! BY a combination of
fifty-three Democratic and fifty
four Republican votes, VIM.
Lorimer was on Wednesday, elect
ed to succeed Hon.. Albert j.
Hopkins as Junior United States
Senator, by the Illinois General
Assembly. This is the same
Lorimer that pushed the Infamous
Humphrey and Allen bills through
thro ugh the Illinois Legislature a
few years ago to aid his friend,
Yerkes to exploit the street rail
ways of Chicago. The same
Lorimer, who, when the United
States government was prescott
ing the Packers combine, used
his influence as Congressman on
the floor of the House in behalf of
his friends the packers. The ele-
walton of "Billie' Lorimer to the
U. S. Senate will stand as an
everlasting monument of disgrace
to the great State of Illinois. Lee
0 Neil Brown, Democratic leader
OF the Illinois House said, among
other things, while explaining his
support Of Lorimer:
she was the perfect politician
whose word was as good as his
bond,' and could be cashed
among his foes, as we'll as among
his friends"
We endorse that statement.
Lorimer is the "prince of politi-
clans" of a certain type, and no
doubt he will 'cash" his prom
Uses to Democrats as we'll as Re-
publicans, who voted for him last
Wednesday. "Billie" Lorimer was
a faithful servant of the packers,
when he was pushing a truck in
A rmour's basement, and there is
no good reason to doubt that he
has been serving the same
masters ever since and that he
will continue to serve them to the
end. The Packers combine, the
monopolistic corporations have
another Representative on the
floor of the United States Senate,
t he people of that state to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
