The Texas Almanac speaks on the mesquite

http://www.texasalmanac.com/topics/science/ubiquitous-mesquite

Words, words, words, here are some of my thoughts said by another person.
When I say 65 million acres, they say only 57 million in Texas and that is 76% meaning the total is 75 no?
When I say the mesquites - IF PRUNED - can give shadow and water to a Texas prairie or any prairie they say in their ACTUAL state mesquites will steal water and give hardly no shade.
That PRUNED material is the one I use for cattle feed and tanning production, and stoves the world over, and cooking rich rich steaks.
Leave to you the many more agreeable and disagreeable statements on both presentations.
