Uncle Sam has just completed an
inspection of our wearing apparel and
he is we'll pleased with our personal
appearance. We wear more clothes
than we did ten years ago when
Uncle Sam reviewed us on dress pa
rade. Last year we bought 922,763,000
square yards of all wooden cloth
against 217,360,000 square yards a
decade ago, and we paid S219,S43, 900
! for the material against $117,757, 900
ten years ago. Our clothes are finer,
our people wiser and the country more
prosperous than at any time in our
history.
Today cotton leads the procession
of the crops of Texas Texas leads the
United States in the value and amount
OF its cotton production as the United
States leads the world in that regard.
Boil weevil and other pests have
waged war with the cotton farmer,
but King Cotton continues to reign
over an increasing dominion from
year to year.
According to the investigation made
by Uncle Sam in the use of wooden
goods as wearing apparel, the women
do not wear as much clothing as the
men, at least not in wooden goods;
but when Uncle Sam has completed
his inspection of miladys wardrobe
he may find some queer creations in
silk and satin that may help in max
ing up the deficiency. According to
the census department report issued
on April 4, the factory value of wool
en- goods used last year was $419,S26,-
000 and of this amount approximate
ly $29S, 1884, 900 is for wearing apparel.
The men used 70 per cent of the
goods and the women 30 per cent The
women wear fewer clothes and
cheaper clothes than the men, at least
that is the record in wooden goods.
The benefits derived from the boys
corn clubs of the state are statewide
in application, and what Texas is now
doing in acreage production will I'M
appear small in comparison

Of choice peaches sent by Harrison

they look. Harrison Brothers conduct
