What Deep Water Will
Mean for Houston,
Harris County and
the Coast Country.
How 1t Will Benefit the
Entire West.

Recognizing the immeasurable benefit 10
the West by the utilization of deep water,
the government has planned the deepen
ing and widening OF Buffalo bayou and the
cutting of a channel through the bay oil
Galveston, connecting Houston directly
with the gulf.
With the completion OF this great work,
for which the first appropriation has been
made by congress, Houston will at once
step into the position of being one of the
great ports of the world
Connected by deep water with the open
seas, Houston will command. not only by
reason of geographical position, but by
reason of superior rail facilities, the com
merce of the West Just so sure as the
products of the West seek gulf outlet,
just SO sure will imports for the West
corne'via the gulf. Just so sure as Hous-
ton becomes deep water port, Just so
sure will the banks of the bayou which
connect it with the gulf. blossom with
great elevators. wharves, mills and ware
houses. Just SO sure as the making OF
a deep water channel will lessen trans
portation charges, just so sure will every
State and Territory from the Missouri
river to the Pacific and from Mexico to
the Canadas participate in the benefits.
The making of this deep water channel
to Houston is the concern of every citizen
of the West While primarily Houston
may reap the most benefit, the plowman of
the plains and valleys, the miner in the
hills. the merchant in the cities, the man
ufacturer and the laborer. the clerk and
the banker. are all directly interested. 1t
means that they will be placed fifty miles
nearer the markets of the East, the mar
kets of Europe and the markets Of the
South than they are today. 1t means
fifty miles of water transportation, which
the statisticians figure as being equal to
$50 miles of rail transportation, for it costs
five times as much to carry goods given
distance by land as 1t does by sea II the
Galveston jetties paid for themselves in
two years by tho chcapening Of freight
rates on one product OF the West. 1t fol-
lows that the extension of deep water to
Houston will have the same result.
To illustrate how wide is the territory
affected by the deep water improvement
a table OF distances is here given:

Something About
Houston and Its Re-
markable Progress.
Great Opportunities
for Investors.

The real estate men OF Houston have
always been among the foremost workers
for the development OF this city and sur
rounding country.
They were among the first citizens to
recognize that great city would be built
upon the banks OF Buffalo bayou at this
point, and for years they have been work.
ing constantly and untiringly to make
Houston what she is today-the biggest,
best and most enterprising city in the
whole State OF Texas.
These real estate men have located
many business enterprises here; they have
been instrumental in adding to the pop
ulaton of the city and county, they have
caused thousands of people to invest in
Houston property and they have helped to
settle the adjacent country with thrifty
farmers raising agricultural and horttul-
tural products to supply the wants Of
big city.
Today the real estate men OF Houston
realize ,ha, the city is on the verge OF
new and greater growth. They believe
mat the next aye years viii see such
progress and deyelopmem here as to

Real Estate sales viii Incr.u..

Colonel n. L. Mills had the following
to say OF Houston real estate and other
matters / am glad to say that am yerv
much pleased with the outlook for a good
movement in Houston real estate. The
recent sales OF fine resident nropertv
mat have been made to people from the
North aud from different parts of Texas
show very plainly that the advantages
OF Houston as place of residence are
fully appreciated.
Her principal streets are being payed
with asphalt With an abundance of pure
artesMn water with our government an
preparation secured and work alreudv
commenced on the deepening of the
bayou so that ocean steamers can load at
our wharyes to carry away the surplus
crops grown in Texas and the great
Northwest, with tho immense payrolls
from our railroa m and shops. our COM
presses, oil mills and various manufacture
ing interests that are now in operation
are giving II an impetus that will give us
double our population in the very near
Future.
Having recently attended the Trans
mississippi congress at Wichita and the
meeting OF the Texas Real Estate asso-
citation at Waco have given me an oppor-

our city by the citizens of other sections

Greater Houston a person must appreciate
the variety and the magnitude OF the EN-

more attractive than any now before the

yet Texas stands far in the front Of the

sections OF land now Of no agricultural
