place. 13 ga inches, which l think is
a pretty fair average for the county.
There has been some cotton planted
in Castro county this year, and all
that was properly cultivated is max
ing very good yield. / am pretty
certain 1t will make from one-sixth to
one-half bale per acre, if it opens well.

acres of cotton and he got two bales

raisers from Central Texas and Okla
homa think Mr.. Burch will make more
than half bale per acre. l am picking
on my third bale. / think we will get
seven or eight bales off thirty acres.
Our kaffir corn and maize are fairly
good, but Indian corn is a failure.

Mr.. Todd and Mr.. Sawyer are both
old Brazos county people.
Myself and Clarence, one of my
boys, took trip in the summer in a
wagon, going first to Lubbock, then to
Tahoka, Big Springs, Garden City,
Sherwood, San Angelo, Rosco,
Snyder, Post City, and many smaller
places, but we found no country We
liked as well as the plains. If | am
any Judge the plains have them all
bested on land, grass and water; also
on crops. We found several old Brazos
county people in different parts of the
country; namely, Sellers Tolson and
family at Sherwood; ]. N. Farquhar
and Charlie Farquahar and families
at San Angelo; Elijah Pate and fam
lily at Blackwell, in Nolan county. We
were also in thirty miles of w. w.

to meet pet" as we called him when
he was a boy. Also glad to find him
doing well; he is proprietor Of the
Elks' cafe at Amarillo and has a
crowded house all the time. Mr.. Ed

fairly strong and in very good health
for man of his age. So you see there
are many people from Brazos county
in West Texas who haven't come

An Instructive Cartoon.

The Fort Worth Record has an
Illuminating cartoon on the subject of
cotton and cotton prices. The repre-.
sentation is Of farmer scratching his
head and trying to understand why IL
is that the more successful he is in
his farming operations the less money
there is realized from his crop. The
blackboard figures presented in the
cartoon show the calculations on the
subject; 1S,9O0.OO0 bales of cotton at
s45 a bale would bring 1921, 900, 900.
while 12,500.000 bale crop, at s65 a
bale. would bring ss12,O00.000. The
Illustration is not much exaggerated
for the events of the past month in
the cotton market have demon strated
the approximate correctness of the
situation that the smaller crop yields
the most money to the farmer-Tem-
pie Telegram.

ARMY OF THE UNEMPLOYED
INCREASES IN NEW YORK

New York, Oct. PA report issued
today by the bureau of labor statistics,
containing figures compiled from re-
turns of nearly two hundred repre-.
sentative trade unions and covering
all industries, shows an alarming in.
crease in the number OF unemployed
men. The report reflects a less favor.
able condition of the labor market
than has prevailed in many years, ex-
cept during the panic of 1907.
The percentage of members report
ed idle was 24.S, compared with 1872
last year. The increase this year is
practically all due to an increase in
unemployment" that is, lack of work
for those able and willing to work.

the United States department of agrl-

recommended appointment of a spe-

in Cuero last week investigating the
pecan crop. This was his second visit
for that purpose, his first being last
summer, when he was in that city a
short time in behalf of the agricul-

this year and the success in produc-
ton have caused widespread interest
in this cotton. Farmers from neigh
boring vicinities have gone there to
learn the methods of cultivation and
ginning, while those of more distant
counties are sending representatives
for that purpose. 1t is estimated that
twice the present acreage will be de-
voted to long staple cotton next year.

The crowd that thronged the D. &

the City OF Cleveland drew away for
the annual cruise OF the Board of
Commerce wasn't there when the City
Of Cleveland arrived back this morn
ing, one Of the reasons being the
fact that the arrival hour was 4
o'clock.
There were two citizens OF the type
well known to the river front to act
as the welcoming crowd. IL wasn't

not that every man on board did
not enjoy himself to the limit, but
every last one was sorry II was over.
Sunday was the first full day the
Detroiters had all to themselves, and
they were only just getting acqualnt-
ed when the time came to seek state
rooms last evening.
In the morning there were devo-
tional services, presided over by the
Rev. Edward II. Pence, singing by
the assembly and solos by Harold
Jarvis. The service was imposing as
men stood with heads bowed IN
prayer on four decks of the ship.

during the intermission the great or

OF the day was travel talk by Presi-
