Farmers. merchants and railroad men
are all joining hands in the common

Agricultural reports show that dur

bushels of corn were raised in the

duced Isl. 100000 bushels. which sold
for S11,420.640, or an average of So
cents per bushel. This is a fairly good
showing for Texas, being an average
of twenty bushels per acre, but if
scientific methods had been used. that
is if every factor which men OF science
regard as necessary to the production
of large crop had been adopted. the
United States would have produced
12,000,000,0O bushelt instead of S.O0O.-

The dissemination of information
has largely to do with the prosperity
and development of a country, and in
no country on the globe does nature
possess such astounding possibilities
and reveal them in such rapid and
cumulative order as in Texas, making

pers in the home of every farmer who
desires to profit by the gifts OF nature
and the experience of his neighbors.
