--Work has begun on the new depot at this plane. The graced county road from the Galveston bridge Is completed, as also the graded road from this place to Galveston bay. The main ditch cast of here, cut last spring, with lateral ditches i Into It, Is an object lesson. No water remained on the ground after the heavy rains of last September. The sound of the hammer and saw is the prevailing- music hereabouts.

Plowing, fencing, building houses and planting fruit trees, strawberries and gardens is the main worii of the community. The school is Nourishing. There Is a J1200 school house, and an attendance of over ilfty pupils. There Is regular preaching: by the different and Sunday school every Sunday. There is a flnp artesian well and the water is--well, just a little better and softer than any other.

The people i here nrn mostly from north western states and are Industrious, Intelligent citizens. Mr. Fort Smith of Galveston has a fine place on Clear Lake, and Mr. J. C.

Jennet t. also 'of Gelvpston, has bought adjoining him. Mr. Martin and the Betten- eourt brothers Galveston have each In prrane culture a i plant vineyards. W.

P. Handle, a drummer, said: "1 listened to the discussions at Bruceville and Eddy, and 1 am convinced that It IH Intended hi those neighborhoods to reduce cotton acreage 75 per cent, compared i the previous year. Whatever may be the coat with farmers In the river bottom lands, I i the prnirle farmers realize that 4 cent cotton doesn't pity." The agricultural Implement dealers say the orders for Implements show Increased tiispusitiun Lw plu.iiI in the lands. LUMBERMAN SATISFIED. Orange, Jan.

It In thought wheat will be the staple crop, though quite an acreage will be planted in cotton.

Mr. McKlnnon thinks the mill men have reason to expect a heavy demand for lumber from that section after they begin to market oats und wheat--say in and July. The mill iiuui la nut given tu guessing. He watches the signs and makes careful estimates, with allowances for failure, that THE POISONING AT GRANGER. Taylor, Williamson Jan.
