SECRETARY WHITNEY COMING.
WILL ARRIVE IN HOUSTON At s,5D
THIS MORNING
To Gather Texas Cigar Tobacco for
Exhibit nj vnris worlds Fair
In the Year 1900.

Hon. Milton Whitney, assistant secretary
OF agriculture, will arrive In Houston to-
day. He is coming to Texas to purchase
Texas cigar tobacco for exhibit at the
Paris exhibition in 1900. Mr. a. r. Moore,
president of the Texas Tobacco Growers
association, is In receipt OF telegram
stating that Mr.. Whitney would arrive in
Houston this morning at 1865 o'clock from
Now Orleans over the Southern Pacific.
When asked by Post reporter regard
ing Mr.. Whitney's visit TO Houston and
Texas. Mr.. Moore said; "Mr. whitney
wrote me several days ago that he would
visit Texas soon for the purpose of pur-
chasing or securing a quantity of Texas
cigar tobacco for tho government with
which to make an exhibit al the Parts ex-
hibtion In 1900. Since It has been ascer-
tanned that as fine a quality OF tobacco
could be raised In Texas as in any other
State or country the department OF agri-
culture has manifested great deal Of
interest in furthering the industry and to
encourage its production by the farmers
OF tho State.
THE tobacco tbat-Mr. Whitney Is now
seeking VIII be shipped to Washington
and there put into attractive packages.
These packages will then be packed in
cases specially prepared and held until the
time for shipment to Paris to be displayed
with the United States exhibit
"The advertising and benefit that the
tobacco industry and State will receive
from this exhibit can not be estimated 1t
Will place us at once before the world as
cigar tobacco growing State and buyers
from all parts OF the world will begih TO
visit our tobacco markets and purchase
our products. The good that will be done
by this exhibit would take the combined
efforts Of individuals aud firms many years
to accomplish
NH. Whitney will go to Paris in 1900
and have personal charge of the agricul-
tural exhibits. and the Texas tobacco
growers may rest assured that their inter-
ests Will be we'll cared for and 1t is to be
hoped that they will do all they can to
help him gather to best advantage a
credtabe exhibit for this occasion.
Mr.. Whitney's stop in New Orleans
was to purchase Perique tobacco for this
exhibition.
Did you know that all the Perlque to-
bacco of the world was now raised In
Louisiana? This tobacco has a high value
and Is famed throughout the world for its
fine flavor and aroma. Fifty thousand
pounds Is probably the largest crop OF
this tobacco ever raised At present its
culture Is chiefly confined to the Acndans
| living along the banks OF the Mississippi
river. Perique is a very dark colored to-
baoco and is about four times as strong as
the ordinary tobacco"
Secretary Whitney Will be at Mr..
Moore's office from 10 to 12 O'Clock and
would be glad to have all who are inter-
ested in the culture of tobacco or the DIFF
fercnt agricultural pursuits TO call and
talk with him.
