The time of year is close at
hand when farmers in the east
are looking for new locations,
especially renters. 1t would be
a good idea to get the Lubbock
country before them by sending
out a good lot of literature and
putting a lot of our good soil on
the market in small quantities
and at attractive prices, with
easy terms. The so acre, 100
acre and 1-2 section men are the
kind that will bring about the
much needed agricultural devel-
opment of the South Plails coun-
try and the sooner we offer the
inducements that much sooner
will we make a farming country
out of the South Plains. We
have the rich soil and abundance
of water, a rainfall that will pro-
duce crops one year with another
as good as any country.

We don't believe that it would

An East Texas exchange says
to those who might wish to pur-
chase: when you buy a farm
look to the water supply first of
all. Poor water means both in
convenience and danger. Come
to Lubbock and you need not
suffer any uneasiness about
the water. II viii not cost you
exceeding $3.50 TO get all the
water you want.

Publicity is the life of any
town that is possessed with
the advantages that Lubbock is.
The cheapest and surest way to
to give your town the publicity
that it should have is to send a

for So weeks and it is fresh from
the bat every week.

The people of Plainview seem

You may not think Lubbock is

The man who takes his entire

To the people of the East:
DO not be afraid TO leave that
country Of high priced land to
come to Lubbock. You can get
land for one-fourth the price in
Lubbock county that you will
have to pay for it where you
are and you will have good
schools here too. Hardly any
of our schools are less than

YOU will find. Come to Lubbock.

The sidewalk man informs us
that it will not cost exceeding $40
to the lot to put in such a side
walk as is necessary for pres
ent needs on South Cedar street
from the Western Windmill to
the Methodist church. Its not
so bad and we sure do need it..
Property owners who are not
willing to pay that much to have
a nice walk put in front of
their property do not deserve
to have any property in Lubbock.

Beet Sugar Stock.

Feet sugar held its own IN the face OF
an agitation TO remove the duty from
sugar Free sugar would put the Beet
sugar company ont OF business along
WIN the beet sugar farmers Of the west
AS thcse farmers produce about S50. 900
tons Of sugar year, IL is doubtful If
any politicians dare take a chance on
that many votes. ON the other hand. the
United States consumes 1000. 900 tons of
sugar year and by maintaining duty
The people arc compelled to pay a least
Fso'oOo,oO0 q year more for the sugar
they eat than they would pay if sugar
were free. Sugar can be purchased in
Europe ID cents pound cheaper than
here, Is IL politics to make all the peo-
pie make $4,000 900 year to give some
OF the people Sl4.600,000? Suppose II
does destroy the beet sugar industry, the
same ground would produce other food
products about as valuable and the lack
of the 100000 tons would not raise the
price Of sugar materially, Stockholders
of Beet Sugar should consider the tariff
situation carefully The sugar tariff
cannot be reduced until the income tax
is made a law. for the government needs
the revenue, but the income tax is com
ing nearer every day.
