entire county.

day and it is tolerably cool today.
I came in yesterday from Bailey
and La lib counties where I have
been taking an inventory of the
people' property on the large
ranches. It would li fight for
come of the people that were raid-
ed in your country to make that
trip with me and nee how the boys
handlo cattle in this country. I
stayed with the "Yellow House"
outfit la.-t Saturday night and Sun
day. In addition to the large ranch
there they have another in New
Mexico and one leased in Crosby
and Garza counties. They have
35000 cattle. The Mexico boys
were at the Yellow House about
twenty-five men in all. It would
interest anyone to tee them round
up their saddle horses and rope
them and then ride them. They
have a chuck wagon with them to
haul their provisions and lds

and that wagon ia their Jiome
the first of March until UU
fall as they are rounding up herd
and driving them to the railroad to
ship to the market. I must not
forget to mention a windmill tower
they have just put up at thii ranch.
Am confident it is the tallest tower
in Texas. It is 103 leet high and
built of wood from bottom to top.
They only bar three boyi on the
ranch that will grease tbia mill. A
Cre passed through tbis ranch in
March. It broke out in Mexico
west of the ranch and burned a
strip of land twenty milei wide
from one side of the pasture to the
other. In fact it went clear off
the plains east. Fire is one thing
to be dreaded in tbis country.
Land is still advancing in Cas-
tro county. Judge C. F. Kerr of
Dimmitt told bis borne of ICO acres
adjoining the town section" for the
handsome price of 125 per acre.
W. E. Halsell who own Spring
Lake ranch was offered $5.00 per
acre for bis entire ranch containing
200000 acres aiid part of that in
the sand bills. When I came here
I bought my land at a little more
than one dollar per acre and raid
if it ever got to $5 per acre I would
sell out but when it reached 15 I
bought 323 acres more and if I
had any show to pay for it I would
buy more.
I have ten acres of cotton plant-
ed this year. W have put out
over one thousand trees and plant
ed one-half pound locust seed;
plenty of watermelons pumpkins
kershaws pie melon canteloupe
and a number of diflerent kinds of
pes anTl bean. So if any of our
Drazos count' friends come out to
see us thin year we can give them
peas and melons to eat.
