the land This cost us $40.
The soil in and around Mission is COM
posed of sandy loan and yields an
enormous quantity of mesquit trees.
When these are cut down, the roots are
very often left in the ground. AFTER plow-
ing, these roots are thrown to the surface,
where they have to be picked and chopped
up, laid in piles to dry and burned.
There were l2O piles of roots on our land,
each three feet at the bottom, tapering
upward to height of three feet. This
cost us $40 more for removal.
Next we both narrowed and irrigated
the land ourselves. At the same time we
began building our house. We built a
three-room L-shaped sloping roof affair

selves. We then bought horse for Sis.

ments for 500. ,...
All this time we were working like two
Trojans on our house, with the sun beating
down ll5o on our backs.
In fact, | believe that we worked
little too hard for beginners in a new
climate. We moved in six weeks after we
started to build the house. We were ter
ribly annoyed by the flies at meal-time,
as we could not get any screens then for
our doors or windows. To this, and to the
drinking water, lay the cause for my
sickness of typhoid. We did not have
water to drink on our land for ourselves
or horse, and we had to hitch up and ride
a mile to fill our barrels from neighbours

| had to go to Brownsville for medical aid
and nursing. In the meantime, my brother
was unable to keep up the. farm and look
after me at the same time; so he rented
our place out to farmer, who put in our
beans, which he bought from us. 1t was
just as we'll we did not put them in our
selves, because when they got foot high
they were attacked by larva parasite
and destroyed.
| want to say right here that the ma
jority of Northern people who come to
farm down South have not the least idea
what it actually costs to maintain good
crop 1t costs hundreds of dollars to buy
fertilizers to help keep up the chemical
energies in the soil, in order to produce the
most remunerative crops. And, after put
ting in crop of cabbages or beans. one
may lose every single plant by frost in
one night.
1t was these conditions, mainly, also
the insufficient supply of water, that
caused us to sell out in 1911, taking one
acre of land near Venice, California, and
part cash in exchange for our ten acres.
We have done so well that we now own
five acres, two i'll oranges, one in walnuts
and olives, and the remaining two we de-
vote to poultry and intensive vegetable
growing, the products of which always
find ready market at the big hotels and
restaurants of Los Angeles.
Although the start in Mission was
failure, it proved the incentive for con-
tinued activities I'M the same line, with
the result that | have finally made good
in the kind of work that love and feel
perfectly satisfied and contented in.

II HAD been working indoors for ten
years as a clothing cutter in Chicago,

In July. 1910, my brother and quit
our positions in Chicago and started
for Mission, to cultivate our ten acres.
Travelling south from Forth Worth in the
summer months is actually torture. We
found the temperature in the car l04',
and all the way hot sand and alkali dust
blew in our eyes and nostrils.
We finally arrived at Mission, and |
certainly was surprised at the growth of
the town. From vast tract of uncleared
land, with but 200 population, half of
which were Mexicans, it had sprung up
to a pretty little town of 1000. There
were now several stores, lumber yard,
cotton gin, bank, two drug stores, and
three hotels. We put up at one of the
hotels, and Immediately began to get our
land in readiness for crop of pink beans.
