GRANT CHARTERS
FOR NEW BANKS
January Sees Another Big In
dication of Prosperity in
Texas—Crop Prospects.
During the month of January 13 bank*
were chartered iu Texas with a paid up cap
ita! of In addition to this seven
other banks amended their chartris, increas
ing their capital stock from $130,000 to
9230,000, thus making a total paid up capi
tal for the banks of Texas 900,902,465 to
begin business with on the first day of Feb
ruary.
The new bank, receiving charters are the
Durkhurr.ett State bunk of Burkburnett,
Wichita count: First State Bank and Trust
company of Waco: Firat State bank of Hills-
Itoro; Farmers* Suto bank of Quanah; uips*
cvmb Bank and Tiust company of Luling.
Guaranty btr.k of Tyler; First State
bank of Adrain. Oldham count; the Novies
State bank of Novies, Coleman county: the
Garwood State bank of Garwood, Colorado
county: the First State Bank and Trust com
yany of Brady: Farmers’ Guaranty State
bank of Kemp; Guaranty State bank of Os
coola and First State bank of Pickton, Hop
kins county.
With the enormous loans which been
recently placed in the state by the northern
capitrlists for industrial and commercial pur
poses. »n addition to the large working capi
tal of the state bankers, the busiiwss situa
tion nt the beginning of the year is big with
promise.
Despite the fa t the cntlook for cotton is
not quite as favorablo as it seemeo some
few weeks ago on account of the dryer wea
ther, yet the larger acreage and the fact
that no material harm has as yet been suf
fered, the prospect even on this staple is
still flattering. Boh the larger acreage and
ground conditions arc favorable for other
crops besides the general good- condition of
stock for the early maikcts. With the splen
did financial showing for the find month of
ihe year the fact seems evident that each
suceeding month will shew a material in
crease in every portion of the state.
STOCKYARDS TALK.
It is not believed by kcal stockmen that
ihe cold weather tow experienced will ma
terially affect the market at this point. As
there is not remaining a large amount of
butchers’ stuff ready for market the cold
snap will have no atfect upon either the
quantity or quotations. Local shipments yes
terday. despite the cold, weie larger than
for any former day during the week.
With each succeeding day the livestock
quotations at some markets register some
new topnotchcs. Yesterday cn the Chicago
markets the highwater prico of hogs advasc
cd five cents, making a quotation of 69.40.
the highest price known since 1870 at that
point. Fort Worth for the fifth consecutive
day. advanced again yesterday when a bunch
of hogs sold for $9.Q5. This is the highest
price, and the first time in Texas Ivstory.
That swine sold for this figure- Missouri
also registered its highest quotations yester
day when a drove of hogs at St. Joseph sold
for 99.10.
The Evana-Snider-Buel company had a
shioment of Texas steers on the Fort Worth
market Thursday. Edds & Thompson of Heb
hronv’Ue also had a shipment of cattle at
this market during the week.
For the month of January ‘he receipts at
the local yards totaled 13.104 head, uf these
5447 were cattle other than calves, 2157
calvci. 3830 hogs. 990 u-nats and 734 horses
and mules. About half the grown rattle, or
2776 head, w re shinutd out. were 774
calves. 312 horses and mules. 1704 hogs and
986 goats.
For the sane month Chicago received 271,-
992 crown cattle end 21.201 calves. As com
pared with the same neriod last year this
ehnwa a decrease of 966 grows cattle and
6420 calves.

I One Lone Crate of Strawber
ries Finds Its Way to Mar
ket and Sells for $ll.
Under the influence of the colder weathei
■ a lull ib noticed iu the vriumc of businaa*
on the uoduce inurket. It is not believed
I that any material damage will l»e suffered
I by fruit or produce franc tin* cold spell un-
I less it iray be on noxthern shipments in
; transit. .
However, in the vegetable line a material
! ip notice !. Bonies and other grow-
I ing plants have failed to ripen and mature,
1 thus causing a shortage of these products,
I One crate of strawberries came iu and found
| clearance at $ll i»er crate.
Th<‘ market is well cleaned up on leltUC!
I of all kinds and with the better grades teF"
ing at $6 per barrel. Information from grow
-1 er* if. to the effect that shipments will bf
I forthcoming and that in due time a suffi
cient supply will be on hand.
Texas celery is u drag upon the market.
; from which the growers are not realising.
;Tho trouble, however, k not with the growth
of the product but in the fact that the grow
ers fail to bleach their stock before sending
.it to this market. In comparison with the
finely bleached California product it looks
green and immature and consequently will
not sell.
Car receipts for the day consisted of one
car each of cane sotd. oranges, seed potatoes
and two cars uf apples. In the lot one car
of apples were fancy Colorado stock.
The market on eggs materially advanced
under the colder weather and they are now
finding clearance at 21-22 cents. Poultry
is scare, and with a tendency toward higher
price*.

Livestock have gone through the-winter so
far much better than any one expected. We
have had an exceedingly cold winter, but it
has not been at all disastrous to cattle, and
they have withstood the cold very remarka
bly.”
“Feeding cuttle of any quality are a
mighty narco und high article this winter
and •<» far 1 have been able to get but one
load together,’’ stated R. A. Dil they, of
White epunty, Indiana, while in Texas look
ing for several loads of steers for feeding.
I “There are very few thin steers to lie hud
iu iny section and what are around will be
put on feed in a short time and as a e»»usc
quence to buy them I would have to pay a
very big priep. They are selling too high on
the market at the present for me to touch
them If they do not icach a more reason
’ able figure I will feed just the one load this
. vinUr. I have plenty of corn to feed and
' would sooner convert my graiu into beef
’ than to sell it straight. I look to see cattle
sell pretty high the balance of the winter
*as I believe there is a marked scarcity. I
am going to half feed my cattle on com and
• will give jn addition about two pounds of
• cottonseed per dav and will use alfalfa meat.
’ I will continue the ration until grass when
I will turn them into the pasture* and then
finish them on com and meal the last 60
days.”
EXCHANGES SELI
ON SLOW DECLINE
• Belief That Spot Holders in the
Interior Weakening Regard
ing Holdings.
ui met inai me marxei as
sumed a much stronger bullish tone yester
day afternoon, legi&Htive agitation and tin
disturbed wage conditions at Fall River
Mass., seemed to further depress the marke
and a weaker poaition was noted lor th<
opening of the American exchanges. Thii
■ fact wa s again strengthened by the belie
that the hpot holders in the interior an
; weakening with respect t<? theii holdings un<
I seem willing to pert with tha staple at a
, lower figure.
• New ungui s, perhaps reflecting the trnei
I position of the markets, opened practical!)
level with yesterday on May and July, the*
months being quoted at 14.86 and 14.94. Nev

at 14.6$ an<l 14.56. With the exception o
New Orleans July, which advanced 1 pow
after the opening, thu Guotationa represented
the high point of the morning.

S O'CLOCK—Depressed presumably bi
the New York brokers in addition iu wag’
and legislative agitation the cotton exchange:
utterly tailed to show strength throughon
the day and dosed at the lowest point hotl

The Difference
5 Acres of Cur Artesia Acres at S4O to $6O Per
Acre Equals $2OO to $3OO. 5 Acres of Land Else
where at $2OO to $5OO Per Acre
Equals $lOOO -o 2500.
The difference in your favor at
the st ait is $BOO to S22OU;
meaning that amount saved to you
in the purchase of one of our tracts.
These five acres near Artesia Wells that we are selling at
$5O to $6O i>er acre are better than most and equal to any tracts
for which the higher prices are asked. Our property is iu a well
settled section of the country, where every convenience of country
life is possible, good roads, good schools, chinches, telephone, mail
and railway scmco right at your door.
The three essentials are there —soil, water and favorable cli
matic conditions. The district in which lands are located it
in the heart of the great Bermuda onion bolt of Southwest Teaaa.
While onion growing has so far been the principal trucking iudns
trv. cauliflower, cabbage, celery, Cantaloupes, watermelons, oranges,
grape fruit, figs, peaches, plums, jiears and berries will produce
equally well. A few cows and chickens ou one of these tracts would
insure au immediate income. By diversifying crops, planting part
of vour acreage in oranges nnd fruits within a short time you can
here own a never failing, profit-producing orchard.
To handle one of these five-acre tracts requires only $12.’0
down and $lO monthly or for a ten acre tract s*2’.ou down and
$20.00 monthly, with the privilege to pay any or all of the install
ments nt any time. Come to our office and let us talk the matter
over with you.
