\ FIELD WORTH CULTIyATING.

AS consuls arc the commercial as we'll
as political representatives of their re-
spective countries aad. indeed, chiefly com
merelal. tbe idea OF the American consul
at Tampico, Mexico, suggesting kind OF
continuous show. or sample room, OF
American products at tho consulate, is n
practical and excellent one.
1t would DO an 'all the year round" ex-
position on u small scale at each OF our
consuiates and to which any American
manufacturer. jchhcr. or producer would
hnvo the privilege of contributing an ex-
hibt, That hundreds OF thousands OF doll
lars worth OF trade would result from tho
practical execution OF this plan can not be
doubted
But the establishment OF such exhibits al
our consular agencies In Mexico Is espe-
cially desirable and ought 10 be a matter
OF particular interest to Texas houses and
Shippers anxious TO extend their trade, 1t
Is u strange thing that about the last
country whose trade we think OF actively
cultlvating is Mexico. All other ''recip-
rocity" treaties are talked OF before ono
with Mexico is started on tho way 10 ratl-
ficatlon. True, We have considerable and
u growing commerce with our immediate
southern neighhor, but nothing TO he com

We should find In the $4,000 noa OF pooplo
aud the 100000 square miles OF territory
directly to the south OF MS one OF our rich.
est and most profitable fields OF FOREIGN
trade. The proper cultivation Of that na-
ton. socially. commercially and politically.
would give US great returns. The govern
ment at Washington ought to direct It's
first and best efforts TO securing reciprocity
With Mexico.
