Its area is too great, its climate and

limitless, that it would require vol-
umes to give even a faint idea of its
extent. We shall therefore con-
iine ourself to what is termed
Northern and Northwestern Texas;
wnich, by the way, is decidedlv the
most attractive portion of the State.
NORTHERN TEXAS
comprises four ranges of enmities
beauty, style and cultivation ; all
are social and agreeable.
THE CITY OF FORT WORTH.
The county seat of Tarrant comity
is beautifully situated on the South
bluff of the Trinity river, a short
distance below the junction of the
Clear with the West fork. The
streets run at ir;ht angles, are
broad and level, and we.il suited and
arranged for the employment of
from lied River. It is about equally street ears in a.1 parts off he city.
divided between prairie and forest.
For the productions of
COTTON AND WIIEaT
this region is justly celebrated.
A11 the cereals of the North and
West are produced in abundance.

The population of Fort Worth is
about 2000, and is increasing daily.
Scores of the best’men in the coun-

MARITAL RIGHTS.
All propeity, both %real ami per-

rate property of such owner, and
such property as is acquired after
marriage, by gift, devise, or descent,
becomes the separate property ci’
the party to whom given, devised,

The county is verjt well watered, I of people who are willing to pull off
being traversed by the West Fork their coats ami go to work, are in
of the Trinity river, Clear Fork of demand. All branches of trade aud

occasioual springs, and well water surpassed. IJusiness men, profes-

WOOD
is more plentiful than is usual iu a
prairie country. The Cross Tim-
bers extend throughout the entire
county, from northeast to south-
west ; while the borders of the
streams furnish an abundance of
all kinds of timber.
SOIL.
The soil is a black rich loam,
easily tilled and very productive.
It is from two to ten feet deep and
has iu most places a sub-stratum of
limestone. Iu the eastern portion
of the county the character of the
wax lands of Colliu aud Dallas
counties.
Further west there is more sand,
liutjiot in sufficient quantities to
lessen the productiveness of the
soil-
E ABOIL
Labor is not'as plentiful as could
be desired ; the sturdy farmers and
their haidy sous doing their owu
work aud earning their bread by
the- sweat of their brows. Good
industrious white men can obtaiu
from #20 to #25 and beard per
uoulh. Tin? wages for mecamcs
wry from #2 to #5 per day. AH
kinds of labor-saviug agricultural
implements can be used to an ad-
vantage, thus dispeusing with a
large labor force on every farm.
HEALTH^
The health of Tarrant county is
unsurpassed by that of any coanty
in the South or West. Malarial

■oat prevalent diseases being such
aa are incident to any climate or
naniitcy. The climate here is said
invalids, in fact, all classes and con
ditions of men who are desirous of
limling a good home in a fertile and'
healthy country, where they will.^ie
surrounded with the comforts and
conveniences of life, will do well to
come and examine the prospects
and surroundings of Fort Worth.

“Thar it is,” as he held up the new,
