Pages 94-96 contain a brief but accurate and informative note on
the Germans in Texas. Pages 83-1o8 give a sober account of the eco-
nomic life of Texas with no special attention to the color, history,
and traditions of the state. There are some notes on the demographic
and climatic conditions. Houston, Fort Worth, San Antonia, and
El Paso are described briefly with fugitive notes on other communities.
Zimmermann is most annoyed by the nascent prohibition movement,
which seemed to be thriving even in Texas.
