Iper nu n, is : “Do
lie impossible tusk of
\ RfWtkinc of wet weather, the
Plmlesays:
•^Kverything except Texus is
t through and overflowing. In
the Lone Mate dust is a foot thick
and the ground is so hard that
farmers have to shurpen plows on
a rszor hone to prepa.e for plant-
ing.’'
The Blade’s T* xas correspondent
must have underbid on 11 choice
piece of school land, or he would-
n’t say such hard things about the
soil. Tis true that the farmers of
Texas don’t have to live in house
boats—neither do the frogs hnve
to live in trees to keep from
drowning; at the same time it is a
wrong impression that six-shooters
are used for planting corn, or that
dynamite plays any part in the
Campliell system of farming. The
Lone Star State does not resemble
Venice; but it is as far from being
a barren waste as some Hooded-out
states we know of are from b.uiig
ideal homes for intelligent white
people.
Time to set out Tanglefoot fly
paper, and catch the pest of

A Booster’s Pledge.
On my word and honor, 1 here-
by now declare that as long as I
am a resident of this community,
it will be my constant aim to
boost at all times and every time.
I will do what I can for any
public work that has the good of
the good of the coin mum ty as its
object.
I will submit to and abide by
majority rule and will not knock
and howl tny head off if tilings
are not done mv way.
I will take no radical or ex-
treme position on any question
bufore the people, and t will have
due respect for the opinions of my
friends and neighbors when their
opinions are opposed to mine.
1 will try to always aay some-
thing good about my town and my
psople, or I'll keep my bazoo shut,
nud "cut it out" like a man.
I realise that if this commanity
te good enough to live ia aud make
my money in, it it the proper
plaoe to apend my money iu.—

Ankylostomiasis is epidemic in

you about it so you will recognize

Monday was the longest day of
the year. The sun rose at 4:&2 a.
m. and set at 7 :10 p m at El Paso,
making a day of seventeen hours
and eighteen minutes.
The editor of the Kurt Stockton
Pioneer had the misfortune to lose
u pocket book containing $76. We
sympathize with Bro Bolding.
No such experience will ever be
ours, from present indications.--

]f Bro. Moreu knows that the
pocket book contained $76, perhaps
he can put us next to where our
"lost ones” ere.
