HELL IN TEXAS
BY the Author Of Texas a Paradise

The devil in hsl we're told was chained,
And "A thousand years he there remained,
He neither complained, nor did he groAn,
But determined to start a hell ofhis own.
Where he could torment the souls Of men
Without being chained in a prison pen
So he asked the Lord II he had on hand
Anything left when he made this land
The Lord said, Eyes, l had plenty on hand,
But / left it down on the Rio Grande;
The fact is, old boy, the stun Is so poor
| don't think you can use 1t in hell any more
But the Devil went down to look a. the truck,
And said n he took il as q gift he was stuck,
For after examining IL carefully and we'll,
He concluded the place was TOO dry for a hell
So in order to get II of His hand
The Lord promised the Devil to water the land
For he had some water or rather some drcgS,
A regular carthartic and smeled like bad eggs.
Hence the trade ives closed, the deed was given,
And the Lord went back to His home in Heaven;
The Devil said to himself 81 have all that is needed
TO make "a good hell, 90 and hence he succeeded.
He began by putting thorns an over the trees,
And mixed up the sand with millions OF ieas.
He scattered tarantuias along the roads
Put thorns on cactus and horns on tnads.
He heightened the horns Oh the Texas steers,
And nut an addition To the rabbits ears;
He put q little devil In the broncho steed'
And poisoned the feet Oi the c~entipede.
The rsulesnake bites YOU. the scorpion stings,
The mosquito delights you with his buzzing wings:
The sand-burs prevail, and So do the ants,
And those who sit down need half soleS in their pants.
The devil then said that throughout the land
He'd arrange To keep up the devils own brand,
And all should I've Mavericks unless they bore
Marks or scratches Of bitrs and thorns by the score.
The heat in the summrr is one hundred and ten:
Too hot for the devil and too hot for men;
The wild boar roams through the black chaparraI;
Ills a hell Of a place that he has for a hell.

MANATEE's CITRUS
FRUIT CROP GOOD.

While the citrus crop is reported
short in many counties of the state,
yet Manatee seems to be an eXcep-
ton. according to the following from
the Manatee River journal.
Prom an interview with II. c..
Gumprecht, manager Of the Manatee
County Citrus Sub-EXchange, we
learn that the prospects for a prof.
table crop Of both citrus fruits and
vegetables has never been so bright
as at this particular time.
"The Exchange, which is by far the
largest factor in the distribution OF
the citrus crop, has made substantial
gains in Mauatee county this year,
both in acreage and membership. In
spite Of the short crop the Exchange
will show large increase in number
Of boxes handled.
I'm speaking Of the grapefruit crop
Throughout the state, Manager Gum
precht places the total number OF
boxes at less than one million. Not
outstanding the shortage in the cit
rus crop he states that Manatee
county as a whole will show de-
cided increase over last years produc-
lion, in both oranges and grapefruit.
