The News direct attention to
an offer of premiums for infor-
mation upon the results of
diversified crop farming in
Texas. The purpose of making
this announcement so early is
to put the producers and farm-
ers of Texas upon notice, so
that they may take note of the
results of their different oper-
ations. The News believes
that in the diversification of,
crops, the raising and breeding
of fine stock and an increase in
attention to the poultry yards
and the dairy farm will become
a greater prosperity to Texas
than in any other direction that
could be followed. The work
of education in these lines has
now been going on for some
time, and with increased attent-
ion in the direction indicated
the state of Texas will go for-
ward until it takes its place as
the foremost state in the entire
union. No better educational
course can be presented to the
producers-and farmers of Texas
than to urge them on in special
lines of crop diversification and
stock raising. With this pur
pose in view The News some
twelve months ago offered
premiums for articles upon crop
diversification, and results thus
far reached have been remark-
ably satisfactory. With the
farther purpose in view of still
inciting interest in this direct-
ion The News offers premium
amounting to $250 for articles
on results inuring from new
conditions, specifying total
number of acres in cultivation,
statiog how many acres for
each product, the total amount
realized, and the average of
gross and net rsults per acre.
The announcement now made
thus far in advance is to give
the farmers and producers of
Texas an opportunity to watch
closely the outcome of their
labors, to note down accurately
and systematically the producti
obtained, and to present thej
same in written form for-publi-
cation in The News some time
next year. By this means of
publicity the attention of the
entire agricultural and stock
raising community of the state
will be directed to profitable
fields of enterprise, and the
state will be directed to pro-
fitable fields of enterprise, and
the state as a whole will be the
beneficiary thereof. This is a
work of education mor profit-
able than the discussion of
politics, and The News trusts
that its efforts in this line will
be appreciated by the produc-
ers and farmers of Texas, and
that the record obtained be-
tween this time and the gather-
ing of crops a year hence will
be to prove conclusively that
this special work of education
has not been undertaken in
vain. Within the next decade
the state of Texas will be the
first state in the union in all
that pertains to the comfort of
its people and to the blessings
that follow economy and a wise
use of what nature has so lav-
ishly placed at the disposal of
the inhabitants of our grand
state,—Dallas News.

We notice that the curfew is
being advocated in many towns
in Texas. This is a good move
and any village will be bene-
fited by a law that will keep
Doys off the streets at night,
and in some instances, the
early evening might be ment-
ioned as a good time to send
them home.
