Year. / have landed here in Hunt
county safely and found everything
better than / had expected. am on
the black sand, but have some black
land to work. / think this is very
nice country, as far as / have seen.
There is plenty of water and plenty
of wood, but the wood is so brushy
it is hard to cut. 1t consists of ash,
boxelder and pecan, with some oak and
elm. There is plenty of pasture. Ber-
muda grass has ruined some farms.
This land will grow corn from rs to
100 bushels to the acre, if it gets rain
in due time, but find out that there
has not been a good corn crop made in
three or four years. 1t will make
from one-fourth to bale of cotton per
acre, if seasons are suitable. Oats is
a sure crop; they will make from so
to rs bushels to the acre. There are
binders all over the country. 1t will
grow about 20 bushels of wheat, but
Cner6 are DuC lew LIldC ooW IL.
There is much fine stock here of all
kinds Mules are very cheap, but
cows are high. They are from $50 to
500 and hard to find for sale at that.
Everybody raises their own meat.
have helped several kill hogs and they
would dress from $50 to 500 pounds.
Pork is selling for 10 cents, and you
can find plenty at that price.
I believe that there is as good peo-
pie here as l ever met. They all just
make me feel like was at home, and
hope l am.
We have more rats and rabbits
here than | ever saw. You can see
from four to six and sometimes more
at time. I believe l can kill 100

the fields. I will close, wishing you all
much happiness in the future and
with kindest personal regards to you
