About Palacios
Palacios Is right on the north shore of Trc-B Palacios bay, the only placid,
land-locked body of salt watt r on the gull; the briny deep rlgbtat your door,

in,; and bathing nre just us safe na in any inland brook. Horo yon get the
gulf breeze all summer long, malting cool nights and sleep real refreshing;
mi'.d and balmy winters; a land where you ran live out of doors nine months
in ihe year. Long but cool summers; no sunstrokes or beat prostrations ever
known ;tn short the finest climate in the world, especially conducive to the
comfort and lengthening the days of incurable invalids and elderly people.
A'Tcsian water unlike that anywhere else in the world; absolutely pure.
R-markable cures of Blight’s disease, pronounced incurable by physicians,
have been made by ttiie water alone. Palacios has no saloons, no negroes, no
undesirables of any kind; best schools In the state, and live active chnroht s
of the leading denominations. Entirely freo from destructive storms, and
thunder and lightning rare, yet is in the ruin belt with sufficient rainfall

Soil rich and productive, growing two to three crops on the same land
every year. A town Lot will produce more here during a year than a whole

Texas Hrcaks Monthly Record
for Cattle Dipning
Washington, D. C., Sept. 26.—The
people of Texas have broken all records
by carrying out both in July and Au-
gust more dippings to eradicate cattle
tick than have been performed by any
other Stats in a single month. The
U. S. Department of Agriculture's field
reports from Texas show for July 760,
846 dippings and for August 740,751
dippings under Federal or State super-
vision. The reports from the field in
dicate that cattle dipping ie being sys-
tematically carried out in this State in
a larger number of counties than
before.
Mississippi holds second place for the |
number of cattle dippings in a single
month. In August the people of
Mississippi had provided 1,056 dip,
ping vats and at these vats 705,424
dippings of cattle were performed un-
der federal or state supervision. This
is afi increase of 85 vat* and 15,000
dippings over the work accomplished in
that state during July. The legislature
of Mississippi recently passed a law re
quiring that tick eradication shall be
taken up by every county after January
1. The people of Missiiaippi, however,
•re not delaying their active campaign
•gsinit the tick until state law make*
this compulsory upon them.
