THE demand for good land is such
that the region in which we are inter

new settlers and investors. We are
now taking there a party of Kansas

sons and ideal climatic conditions for
the cultivation. harvesting and cur

know, the Texas market for alfalfa is
the best, as much of your product
from this section is shipped to the
large centers of Texas.
