Take Comanche County. to which the gentleman refers. which was organized three years ago. Prior to that time nearly threefourths of that county was fenced in one field and was under the control of the Comanche County pool. But when it became demonstrated that the rainfall was so equitably distributed that all that country was fit for agricultural purposes there came the tide of emigration rolling from the East. each successive wave going farther West. Thus the wire fences of this Comanche County pool were torn down until every quartersection of available land in that countywas taken up and the county organized. it having now a population of 7.000 or 8.000 people. All this has been done in three years. and this was the end of those cattlemen.
