Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Resources and Attractions of the Texas Panhandle for the Home Seeker, Capitalist and Tourist: Facts on Climate, Soil, Farming, Stock Raising, Dairying, Fruit Growing, Game and Fish
The people going into this portion of Texas are of the most intelligent and thrifty people in the United States. They are equal to the average in their aspirations and desire for a high state of civilization. Churches and school-houses are springing up everywhere, and are keeping pace with the rapid development of the country. Texas has the largest school fund of any State of the Union. Half of her lands have been set apart and devoted to educational and charitable purposes. In finance, Texas is pre-eminently in a prosperous condition. She has no public debt, and a large surplus of money in the treasury, a special session of the legislature having been called to disburse the money in an over?owing treasury.
