FACTS FOR IMMIGRANTS.
No country on earth offers such in-
ducements to immigrants. There
are about 130 organized counties in
the State, and there is scarcely a
neighborhood in any of these coun-
ties in which unimproved land cannot

dollars according to location and the
value of improvements.
Most of those seeking homes in
Texas expect to make their living out
of the soil. They are looking in the
right diriction. Here good land can
he obtained upon reasonable terms in
tracts of any desirable size. Here
provisions are abundant and remark-
ably cheap.
HEALTH.
Those who settle in low, flat lands
and use creek water, are liable to
chills and fevers; in the coast cities
people are liable to vellow fever, but
on the whole. Texas is a remarkably
healthy State. The hilly regions of
the West cannot be excelled for health
on the continent. Those who use
cistern water and arc prudent and
careful, are healthy in any part of the
State.
THE IMMIGRANT
Coming to Texas has fixed in his
mind the branch of business he in-
tends to prosecute. If it is to raise
cotton or corn he may go anywhere.
This present vear cotton has been ex-
tensively cultivated in the extreme
northern portion of the State, and
also on the Rio Grande in the south-
west. With no disaster, the bottom
lands anywhere will produce nearly
or quite a hale to the acre, and upland
a half bale. Gins are being erected
in all parts of the State and if prices

Corn, too, will grow anywhere,
anil y eld from twenty to fifty bushels
to the acre, according to the quality
of the land, the season, and the man-
ner in which it is cultivated. Sorg-
hum produces most abundantly every-
where in the State. The fodder from
the corn and sorghum and the crab
grass, which comes up spontaneously
after the crop is matured, furnishes
splendid food upon which to feed
teams and cows through the Winter.
Connected with the crops may every-
where be produced broom corn. The
manufacture of brooms is beginning
to attract attention, and may become
a profitable industry. Some mills
have already been erected for press-
ing oil from the castor beans, which
grow spontaneously in all parts of the
State. Everywhere, too, peas, beans,
potatoes and melons may he raised in
greatest abundance.
STOCK RAISING.
Expecting some heavily timbered
portions East Texas, the whole State
is admirably adapted to stock raising.
True, as the country becomes more
densely settled anil covered with stock,
the old sedge grass is killed out, but
in a year or two, a thick mat of lux-
uriant grass of an improved quality
forms a sod and covers the ground.
These improvedgrassi - m., ilv belong
to the mesquite species with an oc-
casional patch of rye and rescue.
Cattle, horses and inwfe* '.pav he ad-
vantageously raised almost anywhere
between the coast and Red River, or
between the Sabine and Rio Grande.
I’he same mavhe said of hogs. Sheep
do well upon the sandy islands of the
coast or in die rolling regions in the
interior. On low and black land
they are not so thrifty.
THE COAST REGION.
If persons coming to Texas have
been accustomed to a coast region,
The Gulf of Mexico washes Texas
from the Sabine to the Rio Grande,
a distance of five or six hundred miles,
and on the bays, bayous and
rivers there are immense tracts of
land adapted to cultivation. The
waters abound in the finest (ish, oys-
ters, turtles, ,Xc.. and the fores) trees
are covered with vines producing
grapes from which millions of gallons
ol wine might be annually manufac-
tured.
In the tier of coast counties the
cotton is somewhat liable to destruc-
tion from worms. Hut in all these
counties the ribbon cane can he ad-
vantageously cultivated. In years
past a great deal of sugar was made
in the counties of Brazoria, Wharton,
Matagorda and Jackson. The sugar
Our State is better supplied with
timber than the prairie States of the
Northwest. In a large portion of the
State there is timber enough for all
purposes. Where it is scarce, farms
are enclosed with hedges. In the
northern portion Bois d’Arc is used.
In the coast counties, Aalhama and
Cherokee rose makes a magnificent
hedge. In most of those portions
where timber is scarce immense rocks
are found furnishing abundant mate-
rial both for building and fencing.
Timber can be raised in a few years
to answer all necessary purposes.
WATER.
Only Portions of the State are sul>-
jeet to drouths and a scarcity of
water. The drouths are most fre-
quent in the region west of the Colo-
rado river. A good farmer, however,
who cultivates hisgrounil well, break-
ing it up well in the winter anil plant-
ing early, almost makes a crop. If
shallow plowing is followed by a
drouth, very little will be made. This
refers to corn. It is hardly ever too
dry to make a fair crop of cotton and
this may he planted from February
until the middle of May and still have
time to mature. In Texas cotton is
more frequently injured by having too
much rain than too little.
Water may he readily obtained by
digging almost everywhere. The
very best and healthiest water is the
rain water saved in cisterns. This
of course can always be had in abun-
dance by preparing the receptacles.
I11 some sections during long con.
tinned dry weather water becomes
scarce for stock. An abundant sup-
ply, however, can be had anywhere
bv building dams across drains for
tanks. Those who have never tried [ torr ,,f Tex;ls colonization, the exact

Factories, carding machines and
shops, for working in wood, iron and
leather, are springing up in all parts
of the State, and enriching those who
are carrying them on.
Beef packers are furnishing a mar-
ket for our cattle, and profitable em-
ployment to thousands of laborers.
Mills for grinding cotton seed and
castor beans are successful.
Fortunes may be made from the
bones bleaching on our prairies.
LABOR IS IN DEMAND
and prices now rule high. Ordinary
farm hands receive $15 to $20 per
month and their hoard. Skilled labor
is proportionably higher. In cities
journeymen mechanics receive from
$3 to $5 per day. In no State in the
Union is labor so well paid as in
Texas. While labor is high, living
from the A Id in r.
iiow eunoMos are made.
Probably very few, even of those
persons who are generally well in-
formed, have the slightest conception
of the various processes by which
those wonders of modern imitative
art, popularly known as Chromos,
arc gradually developed, step by
step, to a perfection which almost de-
fies discrimination in comparing with
the original. The lithographic, or
stone process, is that generally used
in this country; but having been
found too slow, and inherently defect-
ive for rendering some of the most
delicate tints, great effort has been
made to find a substitute, by which
a higher degree of perfection could

There is no place in our State where
a man who wishes employment can-
not readily find it. The erv from one
end of Texas to the other is for more
labor; labor for the farm and for all
kinds of profitable pursuits.
MINERAL WEALTH.
We can but touch at the undeveloped
eil mineral wealth of this great State.
Mountains of iron ore of great rich-
ness and superior quality have been
found in some twenty or thirty ilitier-
cut counties. There ai;e inexhaustible
beds of coal. There are quarries of
marble, gypsum and soap stone. As
there are old shafts with the evidences
of having been worked 011 the Llano
and other Western rivers, there is no
doubt but silver will be found in pay-
ing quantities. Formerly, the silver
mines of Los Almagrcs, some forty
or fifty leagues northwest of Sail An-
tonio, were more productive than the
famous San Luis I’otosi. But in the I known as the “Key.” A number of

also to stationary and locomotive use.
We presume most of those who
think of immigrating to Texas expect I
to become farmers. This is the place large, and wheat is destined to be-
for them. Our inexhaustible soil,de- come a staple product of this fine
portion of the State. Oats, rve and I
barley are also advantageously culti-
vated. Of course those who wish to
cultivate the cereals will seek that
belt of' country.
The portion of Texas in which
wheat is cultivated successfully is
considered rather the'best foi^ fruits,
especially apples and pears. This
section of the State is rapidly tilling
with immigrants.
YOU CAN BE SUITED.
Docs the immigrant wish to rent
land for a vear or two? or does lie
wish to buy in a neighborhood where
lie can raise his own lings and cattle
land horses? In a neighborhood
where he will have good health, good
society, and can raise his own pro-
visions aud find a market for his sur-
plus? There are different neighboj’-
lightful climate, the length of our
seasons and variety of our productions
point out Texas as one of the finest
agricultural countries on the globe.
We have said a good deal about cot-
ton, because cotton is King. Look
at the price of the staple to-day ! Per-
sistent efforts have been made to in-
duce farme-ts to diversify their crops.
As we have shown, a great many
other things can he profitably pro-
duced, but as the result of all these
dibits, cotton is displacing sugarcane
in the coast region and taking the
place of wheat in the northern por-

TEXAS IND KP K N DENT.
Tile comparative independence of
Texas was demonstrated during the

State, because we made our own
meat and bread, manufactured our
own sugar and cloth, and furnished
our own salt.
MANUFACTORIES.
There are in the State sonic twelve
or fifteen cotton and woolen factories,
and their number is constunth multi-
ply ing, while the older ones are in-
creasing their capacity for produc-
tion.
At Houston. Galveston, jefl’erson,
and perhaps other points, there are
extensive foundries and shops where
all kinds of engines and other machin-
ery are made.
The number of small manufactories
of various agricultural implimcnts,
wagons, carriages, cars. &c., arecon-
Mantly increasing.
