and Rio Grande border on and after
April / and it shall continue until

nation follows:
BE it known that |, o. B. Colquitt,
governor of the State of Texas, by
authority vested in me by the laws of
this State, do hereby declare that
quarantine shall be established on the
gulf coast and Rio Grande border on
and after April 1, 1914, and it shall
continue until closed by proclamation.
Il. Said quarantine shall apply to
all vessels, railway trains, persons or

MORE TEXAS COB TO WORK ROADS FIRST RATES GIVEN TEXAS FISH HATCERES
Paroles for Prisoners Now Being Pre-
pared-Many Counties Desire
Them for Road Work.

Austin, Tex.-One hundred and fiji
ty more cOnyicts will leave the prison
walls behind and go out into the
State as laborers on county roads If
Governor COlquitt is able to determine
on that many whom he believes may
be chosen for the work. The success
of the Lindale, Smith County, road
projection has been a boon. Thurs
day D. NJ Reedy requested the gov
ernor to parole so conyicts that they
might be used on road work in the
Tyler district, where a 100000 road
bond issue was recently passed. Lime
stone County has applied for 80 con-
victs to work on the roads in that sec
ton. The governor has already grant
ed the application of Gregg County for
30 men and these are to be sent in
the near future. The paroles are now
being made out. On the State rail
road 40 men will be put at work, work
ing on the roadbed. This list has
been prepared and the paroles are
likewise being made out.
The governor believes that the
method of handling a certain percent
age of convicts has at last been found.
They are allowed good sleeping quar-
ters, good food, receive $3.50 per
month as their share of the work and
the fresh air and hard work, together
with the privilege of discarding the
stripes, is working towards a refor-
nation in prison methods and hand
ling of men.
The one trouble at this time is the
release of many of the men from the
prisons. Those who want the work
on the roads are many of the unskill-
ed workmen and their withdrawal
from the shops in several of the in
situations will cripple the forces.

reau OF fish hatcheries has been given
its first rate for the distribution OF
young fish for stocking streams and
lakes of this State, effective April l.

plication for a low rate both for the

ed furnish special cars or when bag
gage cars are furnished by the rail

each movement The above charge
will be considered as compensation
also for the passage in both directions
of not more than four attendants or
messengers, and also for the return
of cars in accordance with the custom
justifying the return of empty cars
after they have moved under load.
LESS than carload: When ship
ments, not exceeding fifteen cars or
carriers, are handled in the regular
baggage cars or on any passenger
train, charges will be assessed at the
established first-class tariff freight
rate, estimated weight 100 pounds per
can or carrier. Said charges will be
considered as compensation also for
the passage in both directions of one
messenger or attendant and for the
return of the empty cans or carriers.
Limit for the return of messengers
or attendants will be ten days
"All authorities heretofore granted
to the lines of railway above named
and covering the handling of young
fish for account of the United States
bureau Of fisheries are suspended and
hereby Cancelled"

BOOST THAT WAS A KNOCK
Critic Knew Well That His Praise of
Novel Would inevitably De-
crease Its Sales.

In a discussion OF the popular lit
erary taste Theodore Dresser said at
the Century club in New York:
Here is an Illuminating episode:
4 preacher was talking to a critic.
The preacher said:
81 thought you didn't like the work
of Potts, the novelist?'
Neither do l. the critic answered
"'Yet in your review the other day
you declared that Potts last novel was
remarkable for its purity, that its high
moral tone was a splendid change
from the tainted fiction Of the day, and
that you advised the public to turn to
the moral Potts, from the debasing
white slave fiction so much in vogue.
Why, now, my friend, if you dislike
Potts, did you talk like that about
him.
81 did it, the critic answered, to
spoil his sales.

LEYEES WILL RECLAIM LEAGUES Of LAND
Districts Along Trinity Have Been
Formed Which Are Intended to
Benefit $4,000 Acres.

Austin, Tex-O. W. Finley, civil
engineer from Ennis, conferred this
week with Arthur A. Stiles, state re-
clamation engineer, relative to the en-
cheering features for two levee dis
tricts on the Trinity in Kaufman and
Henderson counties, a short distance
below the mouth of the east fork.
These districts will adjoin and viii!
constitute one engineering undertake
ing.
They contemplate one levee slightly
over nineteen miles in length, with an
average height of about eight feet,
and will reclaim approximately $4,000
acres of rich valley lands which are
now subject to overflow. The dis,
tricts have been formed and will soon
vote to issue bonds aggregating $145,-
600 for the levee construction.
The districts are making good use
of the excellent surveys and maps
made under the supervision of the
United States engineers office at Dial,
las, in cooperation with the state re.
clamation department.
Mr.. Stiles is in receipt of a tele.
gram stating that Bots dare Creek, in
Fannin County, has gone on another
rise, the second this year, and higher
than that in February. This stream is
now being surveyed with the view of
levee construction to reclaim its fer.
tile valley.

ONION GROWERS TO SELL F. 0. B.
TEXAS GROWERS MEET AT LA
REDO AND DISCUSS MAR
KETING PROBLEM.
Resolve That Agencies Dispose Of
Product at Shipping Point--Rather
Crop Rot Than Small Profit.

Laredo, Tex-One of the largest at
tended, most enthusiastic and inter
esting meetings held in Laredo in
years was the convention Of the onion
growers of Southwest Texas held We'd
nesday under the auspices of the La
redo Chamber of Commerce. Repre-
sentativeS from the Laredo section
Dilley, Cotulla, Big Wells, Pearsall,
Asherton, Devine, Crystal City, Alice,
San Benito, Robstown, Brownsville
and other plaCeS-Were present at the
meeting. In addition to the onion
growers were representatives Of sell
ing agents representing buyers
throughout the country.
The object of the meeting was to
get the onion growers and selling
agencies together, on a plan for the
marketing of onions during the COM
ing season on a basis fair to both
sides, to establish a uniform market
price among growers and eliminate
competition and other detrimental &C
tons and to establish a minimum
basis upon which onions shall be sold.
Profit Must Be Satisfactory.
1t was the consensus of opinion
among the growers that unless they
could get reasonable price for their
products, or if the selling agencies in
their harmful competition lowered the
price to a figure where the crop would
be marketed at a nominal price and
possible loss, they would rather allow
the crop to rot in the fields. The
marketing problem was discussed in
all its phases.
Eloquent addresses were made by
Colonel Alba Haywood Of San Benito,
John H. Davis of Laredo and other
men qualified to discuss the marketing
question intelligently. Much attention
was given to the remarks of each
speaker.
Throughout the forenoon session
the time was devoted to a preliminary
discussion of the marketing question,
the discussions being engaged in by
onion growers, representatives of sell,
ing agencies, bankers and business
men generally
Would Allow Onions to Rot.
The keynote sounded by each speak,
er was that the onion grower should
get fair remuneration for his crops
Every grower of onions present at the
meeting assented that unless he re-
ceived certain minimum price for his
onions he would allow them to rot in
the field rather than sell them at
small margain of profit or possible
loss.
A resolution was offered that the
growers instruct the selling agencies
to sell all onions f. 0. b. cash shipping
point. This resolution brought on a
heated discussion and some pertinent
remarks on the subject were made,
quite a few growers and agents par
ticipating in the arguments, but the
resolution was finally adopted by
unanimous vote.
