Wonder why Prof. S. A. Gil

We will welcome him any time.
FROM TEXAS.
Editor News: I lett Carters
ville on the first of April for a
visit throughout north central
Te>ftis. My first stop was made at
Sherman, in Grayson county.
Here I met quite a number of old
friends whom 1 formerly knew in
Gordon and Bartow counties. One
especially was Wm. Corbin, from
Bartow, with whom I spent several
days.
Grayson, together with a few
other surrounding counties, forms
the banner section of Texas. The
lands of this section are of exceed
ingly fine quality and partakes of
a black stiff nature.
I have just returned from a trip
southwest into Clay and Jack
counties —a section noted for its
extensive cattle business.
At Post Oak, about thirty miles
from the railroad, considerable
excitement prevails over the dis
covery of oil. There is scarcely
any doubt but that there lies vast
fortunes here only a few hundred
feet under the surface, which only
needs development. Still further
southwest, is a large section of
country that has been opened by
the state for settlement. The land
is sold for one dollar an acre with
forty years for payment at 3 per
cent, interest. This is quite an op
portunity for men of limited means
to secure homes for themselves,
though the country is rather dry
and a long distance from the rail
road. There is also a portion of the
Indian Territory to be opened for
settlement during next summer.
This land will not be sold, but
will either be drawn for or run
for, and deeds will be given after
settler has occupied the premisei
for five years. Each settler is lim
ited to 160 acres.
