will be included in the company.

basis.

SOUTH PLAINS HOMESeeKeRS
Car Of Homeseekers Came in Last
Week From the North-Cros-
byton entertains Them

The third fortnightly excur'
sion of the Crosbyton South
Plains Railroad came in last
week with a crowd of enthu.
siastic and earnest homeseekers.
The country is in fine shape,
crops looking as good as any
where in the United States.
Considerable land was sold on
the two former excursions. A
big deal has been made with
the Orthodox Catholic church of
France for $4,000 acres on what
is called the East Plains" in
Crosby county, where in the
near future hundreds of fami-
lies will be located from that
country as fast as they can be
brought in.
The Railroad Company is
bending every effort to let the
people in the North and East
know the real facts about the
South Plains and the minds of
the people are gradually being
disabused of the old fashioned
idea of associating Texas with
the longhorned steers and the
bleak plains covered with sage
grass.
A novel banquet was given
Tuesday night in Julian M.
Bassett's brand new dairy house
at which the visitors we're en-
tertained with stories of what
Texas and the South Plains
really are.
These fortnightly excursions
will be continued during the
winter.

NORTH SIDE CROPS
Alternately Community Prosperous
Good Crops and Fine Water
meIons-Good Rains.

Abcrnathy Two County News;
Alternately territory is among
the best farming sections on the
South Plains, crops are more
prosperous than they have been
for years.
Some of the largest melons
that has ever grown in Hale
county, are being shipped from
this place.
/ We feel certain that the
heavy SHOWS and prolonged cold
of last winter have been bene-
fetal to the soil.
Better farming is the thing.
while the farmer has no control
over the elements for il will
rain when il pleases and blow
regardless of him, or refuse re-
freshing showers in spite of his
need yet successful crop grow
ing is largely up to the farmer
after all. When rains are scarce
he must make use of the supply
stored in the soil. When the
winds go dead and the water
trough is empty he must resort
to the modern pumping engines.
When rains are to profuse he
must let them escape by means
of proper drainage.
Last Monday evening a heavy
rain fell which lasted for some
time, and was accompanied dy a
strong wind but no damage was
done.
Many of the farmers are max
ing improvements on their farms
in the way of building silos.
Quite bit of lumber has gone
out from this place for building
purposes.

The many friends of Miss
Jewell Watkins will learn with
genuine regret that she will moi
teach in the Lubbock Public
School this year. She was regu-
larly employed and had accepted
the position. but just on the eve
of school opening she was taken
sick with typhoid fever at her
home, and hence unable to take
the place at the opening of the
term. She later wrote the sup
erintendent that it would be some
time before she would be able to
teach, so it was thought best by
the board to select another teach
er in her place. and the choice
fell upon Mrs. Knox. who is an
experienced teacher in the pri-
mary grades. and has been teach
ing in Miss Watkins room since
school opened.
