HOUSTON MARKET REVIEW.

Houston, Texas, Nov, "a weef
ago estimates of the cotton croT
around 100000 bales were accepted
generally as absurd Today, however
some bearish brokers who have placed
the limit at that figure are stretching
il above 100000 bales. Estimates
of around 100000 bales appear to
be accepted by the conservative ele'
ment. This situation caused fur
Their decline in prices. The large
crop talk caused a great deal OF sell
ing for both accounts.
One bullish influence during the
week was the large spot demand, Buy
ers found it difficult to secure spots

holding more cotton this year than ir

DYNAMITE IN FARM OPERATION

In order to determine the value of
dynamite In farming operations, B.
Youngblood, director of the Texas ex-
pertinent stations, has arranged for a
supply Of the explosive and an expert
to do the demonstration, the work to
continue over period of five years
1t least.
Dynamite is being used in FIVE
ways in farming operations" said Dl-
rector Youngblood 1T is used for
clearing, for stump blasting. sub-soil-
ing, ditch digging and tree planting.
In order to make a thorough test of
the value OF the explosive in farming
work, | expect to conduct experiments
on each OF the ten stations in the
! state and at the main station at A. G.
VI. College. At each station two acres
will be set apart, one acre to be sub
soiled with dynamite, and on this acre
we will plant plats of variety Of
crops. The acre which is not dyna.
mited will be alongside that which has
been sub-soiled with the experiment,
and the rows of crops will extend
across the two acres. Each will be
cultivated the same, and the result
will be recorded as between the
growth on the two acres of ground |
The experiment is to be continued |
over a period of five years, and the |
reports from time to time will be pub
lished in bulletins"
Tuesday Director Youngblood had
a conference with DR.. j. Fl. Squires,
agronomist for the technical division
of the DUPONT powder works. DR..
Squires agreed on behalf of his COM
pany to furnish sufficient dynamite for
the experiments and to send an eX-
pert to each of the stations to do the
work. After the conference DR..
Squires left for a trip to all the sta
ions, going first to Temple, then to
Denton, next to Spur, then to Pecos,
pack to Troupe, then to Nacogdoches,
md then to Angleton and Beeville. He
will overlook the ground, and report
o the company about the quantity of
dynamite to use and the character Of I
he work the expert is to do. The ex-
'eriments will be conducted imme-
lately under the supervision of Di- a

OUR COMMERCIAL CLUB

The writer could sit here and
enumerate a thousand and one
things that If put TO use would
be of untold benefit to Hereford,
but not one of them would bear
the value of a commercial club. 4"
After uttering the above force
full sentence, The Hereford Re-
corder, from which it is taken,
the editor goes on to state that
the facuonalism that exists in
the town is responsible for the
town not having any commercial
organization. Now while we do
not believe that this is the reason
that Lubbock has none, still
there is a reason, and that reason
should be overcome by some
means and a Commercial Club
organized that will be able to live
through future years. 1t seems
to be a very hard matter in towns
of less than eight or ten thousand
to get a club of this kind so con-
stituted to ride the troubled seas
and still maintain its equilibrium.
And while Lubbock is an eXcep-
tion to the general rule of towns
in many respects, in this she
seems to be identical, and as
result we have not had a regu-
larly organized, active, CONNER
cial organization for 10, these
many months, and the town is
feeling the need of such. We
would be pleased. for the benefit
of the town and the development
Of the country, to see our people
unite on this question and re-
organize the commercial club and
get down 20 business as only
organization can bring about.

One of the best evidences of a
rising, up-to-date town is a well
kept park. Even if, of neces.
sity, il must be small it serves
its purpose by showing strangers
that the citizens of the town
take pride in its appearance.
Yet tins park must be well-kept.
else II is worse than none at all.
Authorities can see that it does
not become the loafing place for
all the gentlemen of leisure"
in the village. Every town
which has a small park recogni-
zes a good thing" when they
see il and every town which does
not possess a park has still a
good thing coming.
