LAND VALUES, IN EAST TEXAS
1t is safe to say that, ira
proved and unimproved, the
bulk of East Texas lands may
be had at prices ranging from
$1,000 to $4,000 per acre.
Lands near shipping points and
especially where a consider
able shipping interest has been
started, are higher-often up
to $4,000 and even $4,000 per
acre. Indeed it is develop.

as.aa..,- :,
ment which puts the price of
land up in East Texas, and not
speculation, as there has never
been any special activity in
land trading in East Texas.
For instance, at one station
which has been exchanging
high-priced fruit and vegetable
products for out.of- State money
one may hardly find land with
in a mile for less than $500
to $4,000 per acre. Within
the same distance of another
station where a growing and
shipping interest has not been
started but where soil and
other conditions are as good or
better, land may be had for
$1,000 to $4,000 per acre, some
of it improved.
Rene fsnm shipping, in
rare CASES, land may yet be
bought in some sections as low
as $500 per acre, SIS 90 land is
becoming very scarce in East
Texas.
SIGNS OF BIG FUTURE DEVELOP
MENT
One popularity observable in
East Texas. with relation to
land values, is that often the
small farm, with some improve
ments, may be had for less
money per acre than a tract of
larger size, unimproved. The
reason is plain the large land
owner observes the signs which
pretend settlement, develop
ment. and resulting advance in
values, while the small home
owner does not.
Another reason for this lack
of uniformity in values is that
often one man will be getting a
fine income from his land while
his neighbor, on the same quail
ity of land, will be getting little
or nothing, the discrepancy re-
sulting from difference in men
and methods.
VERIFY TIL, STATEMENTS MADE
1t will be observed that. in
most cases of results shown in
East Texas farming, names
and addresses are given. In
rare cases do these men have
any land for sale and feel no
special interest beyond the de-
sire for good neighbors to aid
them with their churches and
their schools. Therefore, any
one writing to them to verify
the facts stated herein should
enclose a stamp for reply.
There is no understanding with
these people that they will re-
ply to letters of inquiry, but
most of them will be glad to do
so. Those named are citizens
OF good standing in their com
munl'ies and are entirely relia

ForSy-two years ago, DULY 3d)
The Harrisonian, (The Times
being its successor, was issued
by D. M. Harris, editor and pro-
prietor, being the first paper
published in Missouri Valley,
Iowa. That was a long time
ago, and many changes and inn
provements have been made in
this city during these forty two
years. Then our town was lar
gely confined to Sixth street,
that part of the town being des-
ignated by the name of 0Whis-
ky Row." while the western di-
vision of the town was. known
as "Dcg Town." and at that
time, great rivalry existed be-
tween the citizens of the mag
mary division of the town.
These divisions have long since
disappeared, and the later set
tiers in the city have no knowl-
edge of the personal dislike of
the two sections, in that day,
for each other. 1t was Jew VS.
Samaritan.
Oar first Fourth of July was
that of 1868, the day after our
first issue of our paper. The
Celebration was a remarkable
one. The surrounding towns,
generally had arranged for a
celebration, and the citizen of
Mo. Valley, at a late date, con-
cluded to Celebrate also. A
public meeting vas called and
arrangements NJ ade for a Grand
Celebration! Toe following is
the published p gram for the
occasion:
G RAND CELEBRATION.
July 4th, 1868, at
Missouri Valley, Harrison Co.
Iowa.
Programme:
Procession will form at Flag.
at 10 O'clock a. m. and march TO
place Of speaking.
Music by the Band.
Prayer by Rev Burgess.
Music by the Glee Club.
Reading Declaration by w. C
Northup.
Grafton by D. M. Harris.
Music by Glee Club.
March to the table to dinner.
The peculiar conditions of
this Celebration was such that
the people of the Valley, think
ing SO many other points were
celebrating, and the notice of
our meeting being so short, had
no idea of securing a large at
tendance at this point, but on
the morning of the Fourth, at
an early hour, people began to
arrive, and by time of forming
the pro- sion, some fifteen
ha larea man, women, boys and
children had arrived, and the
Committee of Arrangements be-
came aware of the fact that no
proper arrangement had been
made to feed such a multituda.
After buying all the bolno "a,
crackers, bread and chees &c
We approached the dinner ia
BILE with fear and trembling
feeling that no amount of apo!.
ogy would be adequate to the
occasion, so all parties proceed
I'd TO make the best of it, and
marched to the table, deter
mined, il possible, to secure a
dinner, and strange to say, all
seemed so full Of patriotism
that little more was necessary
to satify the multitude.
After the Ceremonies had
been concluded, the procession
was again formed, and headed
by the Band, marched back to
the city.
Here the fun commenced. A
