son County in 1913 and in 1922
sold this farm and purchased
another farm near Bertram in
Burnet County on which I now
reside. Prior to my farm life in
these counties I spent some time
in other works among which
was that of R. H. contractor in
Oklahoma but the greater part
of-my life has been devoted to
farming and stock raising.
I stand for such legislation as
will be beneficial to the agricul-
tural interests of our counties

are directly connected with agri-
culture such legislation would
apply to them as well therefore
due to my study and experience
in such matters I feel that I am
