Show PROSPERITY FOR TEXAS. W. Fenstermaker, a business man of San Antonio, Texas, who Is registered at one of the local hotels, says the South is beginning to attract a great immigration and states liko Texas, with vast acreage acre-age uncultivated, are experiencing a prosperity which promises to continue until every acre of arable land is made to help support a vast population. Texas is an empire in itself and of late the state has been rapidly rapid-ly developing in agriculture, manufacturing and all other lines of activity. Large land holdings are being cut up and offered to home-seekcrs home-seekcrs as low as $10 an acre. The rice lands are making their owners rich and onion culture is driving the Bermudas out of the American market. When Texas has all its land under cultivation, the state will be populous enough to be cut into four or more states. |
