LEGE Of TEXAS.
It requires a complete baggage
ear to carry the exhibit that was
arranged by the State Depart-
ment of Agriculture, which is>a
part of the Central Agricultural
Educational Train, now touring
Texas.
This exhibit is in charge of
Hon. Ed R." Kone Commissioner
of agriculture, Sam H. Dixon,
chief clerk in the department and
State Orchard and Nursery in-
spector, and J. W. Neal, director
of Farmers Institutes for the de-
partment. The exhibit includes a
lot of prize winners. The history
of it is this. When the Omaha
exposition was to be held the Na-
tional Corn Growers association
and the Texas State Corn Grow-
ers association, appealed to Com
misioner Kone to get up an ex
hibit of corn from Texas. Judge
Kone did so, spending several
hundred dollars in the employ-
ment of an expert to get the ex-
hibit together. The exhibit was
sent to Omaha and there it took
a large number of prizes. All the
premium winning ears there were
in that Omaha exhibit, are car-
ried on this educational train.

couraged young doctor in one of
our large cities was visited once
by his old father, who came up
from a rural district to look af-
ten his, boy.
''Well, son," he said, "how are
you getting along?"
"I'm not getting along at all,"
was the disheartened answer.
"I'm not doing a thing."
The old mam's countenance fell
but lie spoke of courage and pa-
tience and perseverance. Later
in the d.va lie went with his son
to the "free dispensary," where
the young doctor had an unsala-
ried position, and where he spent
Miu hour or more every day.
The father sat by, a silent but
intensely interested spectator,
while twenty-five poor unfortu-
nates received help. The doc-
tor forgot his visitor while he
bent his skilled energies to this
task; but hardly had the door
closed on the last patient when
the old man burst forth :
"I thought you told me that
you were not doing anything!

QBAXTD JURY REPORT FOR
JUNK TERM 1010.
Groesbeckj Texas, July 28.
To the Hon. H. B. Davis, Judge
13th Judicial District:
The Grand Jury for the June
term of the District Court of
Limestone County, Texas make
the following report:—
We have been in session 13
days during which time we have
diligently investigated all viola-
tions of law that have come to
our knowledge. We have exam-
ined a host of witnesses and as
a result of that examination have
returned 30 true bills viz. 13 fel-
onies, 17 misdemeanors.
We have audited the reports
of various officials and find
same to balance. As to our pub-
lic buildings viz., our Court
House and jail we find in good
repair so far as Ave were able to
determine. Prisoners were well
cared for according to their re-
port.
We have examined with dili-
gence the report current as to
the practice of charging excessive
fees by our officials but the
course of our examination has
uot extended behind last grand
jury. We have had at our com-
mand the dockets of each justice
of the peace of Limestone Coun-
ty together with the County fee
book, the same have been care-
' ;
fully examined by us for the j
purpose of revealing such crimes.
As a result of this examination
we find there are some discrepan-
cies on the county fee book and
some of the Justice dockets which j
