Ten Acre Homes.

Ten acres Of good coast land, we'll
drained, half in orange orchard and
half in garden and field crops, will
make an Industrious family independ-
emit. OF this there is no longer any doubt
in our minds. We have seen it worked
out successfully too often to question it.
That being true, it is as certain as any
thing human can be that the coast lands
win in time reach an average cash
market value of $500 to $1,000 per acre.
There Is no better savings investment
for the young man or woman In this
region than coast country soil at pres
emit prices. Southwestern Farmer.
Southwestern Farmer is eminently

Mr.. HARPER RETURNS
FROM VISIT TO TEXAS
And Says That he Was The Only
Green Twig In Sight In That
Part OF The Country.

Mr.. =. 9, Harper returned last Sat
urday from trip to the Panhandle in
the western part of Texas and Mexico,
and was Very glad to get home again.
When we asked him what he thot of
Texas he replied as follows:
Il had about as we'll undertake to
judge the whole human race by the few
individuals | know, as to judge the big
state of Texas by the small part that /
saw. But if what saw is a sample of
the whole state, Iowa land is cheap ut
1925 per acre. Yet / think / know
more about Texas than your paper
would give me space to tell, for | COW
cred as many acres as | could i'm seven
days. Some of the time was spent Wis
iting farmers, most of whom had
bought their land of agents at $3.50 to
$40 per acre. stopped over night with
man and his daughter. When he set
tied ON the place he said he had wife
and four children; three Of them had
died in the six years of his stay He
said he sold his farm at Crete, Nebras-
lka, at 500 an acre and bought in Texas
at $40 and is staying and improving il
still with the hope of selling it ut $40
an acre
II said Mr. Kechley how much win
new raw land sell for in this neighbor-
hood He showed me u 800 lot close to
his town at Armstad, New Mexico, and
the best land in that part of the country,
and it is offered for $780, Another
farmers wife told mo they have been
there, 20 miles from Dalhart, Texas for
seven years on farm, and that they
had no more time to spare. They could
not sell ut any price and had decided to
desert early in the spring. i asked the
storekeeper's wife where | got my din
ner why she, did not raise little garden
out there on that vacant lot. She said
she had tried it three times but the
wind blew the seed all out the ground.
said when does the wind blown She
said every spring so that it is danger,
GUS to be out i'm the wind and sand
said that's pretty good water, how deep
is that we'll? 800 feet Well, what do
you want for your dinner? 75c please.
You see our coal costs us go per ton
aud every thing else proportionately.
Down in the Pueblo Indian com
munity settlement New Mexico | paid
SOC for two pancakes and cup of cof-
fee and the Indian women ground the
corn 'twixt two stones and that was u
perhaps one-half crop, Judging from
the stubble and shocks, and boy idling
around asked him what he was do
ing; he said / am keeping them d.
'kiotes" from eating up the crop.
said do they each much? Oh they
always get half of it anyway them and
the black faced deer, besides what the
jacks get. Makes 1t pretty hard farm
ing down here in this sandy country
where we get no rain neither"
We must remember that this has been
dry year in a large part of the coun.
try; even here we were on the line of
danger for several weeks because of the
dry weather. The country visited by
Mr.. Harper is of high altitude on the
line of New Mexico nearly thousand
miles from the eastern and southern
coast where they always have plenty of
rain or where they depend upon irri-
cation.
