Put it into San Antonio or Southwest Texas Real Estate and watch it grow. It has been said that "one good in­ vestment is worth a life of labor." If this be true, here is the best chance of your life lime. THE TERRELL HOT W/ELL Located about 2 miles south of the city, in a tract of land containing 2,196 acres of the very finest black hog wollow soil, with a clay subsoil; a fine growth of mesquite cov­ ers the tract which would easily pay for the clearing. This tract, divided into small tracts, could be sold at good profit and would find ready buyers. Such small tracts are very much in demand. The HOT WELL on this tract is 1900 feet deep with a yield of 800,000 gallons per day, which is 60% more than the Hot Springs of Arkansas. The temperature fluctuates from 105i to 109 degrees Fahrenheit. After a careful analysis of the best waters, San Antonio can truthfully claim the best medicinal hot waters known to the world. The baths, with free drinking of the water are especially recom­ mended for all skin diseases, rheumatism, paralysis, asthma and blood poisoning. By the erection of a large up-to-date hotel and bath houses for the accommodation of the many who now seek treatment and by the large additional numbers who would be in­ duced by these accommodations, this could be made the most famous watering resort in the world. This proposition holds a fortune in store for the developers, offered for $150,000. Further information gladly furnished on application.
