When a pretty woman tells it man
she is unhappily married, she Im-
mediately has that man's sympathy
and he wonders what it is he can do
for her.
A New York man named Moffat
has been adjudged Insane because he
had a mania or kissing pretty girls.
The difference between Moffatt and
his follow men is that he had the
nerve to do his work in the open.
Home funny things happen up in
New Jersey. In one of the towns of

from executing a threat to commit
suicide on the doorsteps of the home

If he violates the injunction the court
will no doubt hold him In contempt
and give him a Jail sentence.

THE BANK GUARANTEE LAW
"Understand bank deposit guaranty
bslng proposed in your legislature,
telegraphed R B. Clark, president of
the Bank of Tupelo. Miee., to Paul R
Brown. Secretary of the North Caro
llna Rankers Association. “Such a
law In any form is a snare and a delu

to Irresponsible banks and banking
and penalties capital solvency and

• »f this amount $4,221,500.00 is
deposited in 116 “State Depository"
banks located in as many small towns
scattered over Texas, and upon which
the State receives Interest at rate of
per cent per annum.
$7,578,139.29 is deposited In 20
Reserve Depository” .bunks located
In the 10 reserve cities of Texas.
This money is subject to call and
draws interest at rate of 2 per cent
per annum. The Interest rate Is fix-
ed by the Rate Making Hoard, and
;he difference paid by the “State I>e-
posltorles," and the "Reserve Deposi-
tories” is due to the fact that the
State Treasurer, before withdrawing
from a "State Depository” must give
certain notice, and can only draw a
■small per centsge at a time, while
money deposited in "Reserve Deposi-
tories’ is subject to call, and is with-
drawn without notice, and in any
amount.
The Reserve Depositories" are now
located in the following cities: Aus-
tin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Sun
Antonio. Galveston, cv no. Beaumont.
Wichita Falls and FI Paso.
Prior to Mr. Hatcher's assuming
tin- office >1' State Treasurer, the
Reserve Funds of the State were al-
ways deposited in the city of Austin
Article- 2428 Texas Revised Civil
Statutes, passed hv the Legislature,
several years ago. provides that the
Reserve hanks of the State shall be
located in the "centrally located cit-
ies,” and acting under this Statute,
Mr. Hatcher, after assuming the du-
ties of oflce proceeded to distribute
the* funds over the State. It is point-
ed out that by placing the State's
Reserve money in the banks of the
big Cities of Texas, the smaller banks
ere enabled to borrow money at a
lower rate of interest, and this tends
to materially reduo tbe interest rate,
enabling tbe small country banks to
lend to the farmers and others need-
ing money in smalt amounts.
Discussing the probability of the
State again going on deficiency, Mr.
IlHtcher predicts that there will be
from four to five million dollars more
In the Treasury at the beginning of
tbe next fiscal year. September l,
than was on hand September 1, 1924,
ami It Is his optnh ■* that the State
will not go on deficiency during the
present administration.
During the month of March, the
State Treasurer paid to the County
and Independent School District*
ever $8,000,000.00, and the school ap-
portionment was paid about 30 duvs
earlier than In previous years Mr.
Matcher also announced that there
hud been an Increase of $1.00 In the
Pension to be paid to each Confer
crate Veteran, since he had assumed
the duties of nfiee, and that he hoped
that the State finance* would so soon
permit of an additional increase In
the amount to be received by each
Confederate Veteran.

The red lands of Jim Hogg County, of which Hebbronville is the
county seat, are rapidly coming into their own as the best bet in South
Texas for diversified farming. Why depend upon cotton alone when
you can produce such a variety as citrus fruits, melons, sweet and
Irish potatoes, maize, stockpea*. peanuts, vegetables and cotton, as
well as be in, one of the best poultry-raising and breeding sections of
Texas ?
We have at this time a few tracts of these excellent lands for sale
at low prices, on extraordinary reasonable trems and at very low inter,
cst rates. Some tracts very close to Hebbronville.
