About Texas Farm Lands

That there is constant outflow OF
northern Michigan farmers, in greater
or lesser volume, to Texas farm lands
is fact that the Upper Peninsula De
velopment bureau will have to consider
seriously From time 10 time coloni-
zatIons agents from Texas induce far
mers from this region TO buy lands in
the big state. the inducements being
put forth in glowing colors.
A copper country businessman lately
returned from trip through Texas
aud the West says that these home
seekers are buying sorrow when they
buy Texas lands. The Northern farmer
thinks of Texas AS land that enjoys
perpetual summer, land flowing with
milk and honey, where the farmer has
little 10 do but watch his crops grow.
But establishment comes speedily to
the Northern man who actually under
takes TO make his dream come true
There is no doubt that in certain
portions OF the state Of Texas there are
fertile plains and valleys where nature
is so bountiful that she gives up her
treasures almost for the asking. But
these fertile spots have been taken up
long ago The lands that remain in
Texas Tor settlement are 10 "a great ex-
tent barren, arid plains that never
have known water. lands that will re-
quire the expenditure or fortune on
irrigation projects before they will be-
come fertile.
The Texas land agents offer lands for
the small prices OF from SO to s. an
ao,e. The Northern farmer oftener
than not commits himself to the par
chase and pays something on account
long before he ever sees the land.
When he does see ii and does attempt
20 cultivate IL be learns TO bis sorrow
that he has attempted the impossible.
The businessman referred 20 here
took the trouble TO investigate this
Texas land matter and he says that q
northern farmer who thinks of buyinp
land in Texas should commit himself
TO nothing till he has had an opportan.
