Texas BoomlnQ.

The growth of Texas in wealth and
population during the past decade, as
shown by the census returns indicates an
industrial awakening in that great state
now further emphasized by the move
ment to bond it for fifty million dollars
to preserve the flood waters in the semi
arid portions of the state and make val
liable vast tracts now practically worth
less. The proposal to make productive
by this method twenty million acres gives
a partial measure OF the extent of the
enterprise. The state cannot depend
upon the general reclamation service
since the government does not own any
public domain there, but Texas now feels
equal to her own unaided development
