One only has to pick up a news

slow are our people in the eastern part
OF the State in investing in this branch
Of industry and realizing the benefits

opportunity, for here is the material

much the lack of capital as we are
assured that upon an investment OF
this kind all the money necessary csn

indifference, lethargy, lazincss, want

think the truth of the matter is this
that the most of our people who have

know nothing about speculation and a
