Texas in general may be well known to most people. But here in this Gulf Coast is a section which is a revelation lo the people of the United States. This new country has just been opened by the St. Louis, Brownsville & Mexico Railwoy. He'e is a land of perpetual summer without excessive neat, without the moisture which makes the Southern climate undesirable. It is 500 miles farther south than Loj Angeles, Cel. Tho thermom eter has never gone above 98 degrees in the seventeen years in which the record has been kept, and nly four times has the thermometer reached 96. There is practically no winter. The climate is semi-tropical; it is cooled by the Gulf breezes, and it is so dry that irrigation is necessary, although the rainfall is ahout 28 inches annually. In this particular cection the irrigation problem has been solved by artesian wells, and the entire district is underlaid by water which is never failing and is secured at a depth of 600 to 1,000 feet Crops can be raised the year around and th soil is practically inexhaustible. For the first time the large ranches ot this section have been cut up into small tracts which can be secured at a low price. One acre will yield a good living; ten acres will make you well-to-do, and twenty to forty acres will make you weallhy. America's Winter Vegetable Garden Vegetables of every kind yield immense crops, and as they can be placed upon the market when other sections do not produce them, these vegetables are a source of great profit. A crop of alfalfa can be raised every forty or sixty days the year around; two crops of corn can be raised in one year. It is to the interest of every person who wishes to improve his condition to investigate N0W In three months the price of land will have materially advanced. For full particulars about this wonderful country write the undersigned.
