Lessons Learned or Recent Trip 10
southern Texas and Mexico.

A recent visit TO Houston, San
Antonio Laredo and Montery,
Mexico. convinces Us that Ard
more has as great future as any
of these places. provided we exert
the proper energy at this time.
We find that in each Of these
places an abundant supply OF
water was first secured, then came
cotton factories, iron and brass
founderies, packing houses. soap
factories, match factories and
other smaller industries.
All Of these give employment to
hundreds of men, women and
children, some of their pay-rolis
running up into the thousands.
| Naturally these cities, under such
circumstances, are growing steadi-
ly.
At San Antonio pig iron is re
ceived from Eastern Texas, which
is a much longer haul than it
would be to Ardmore. They also
ship hogs from north Texas to
| San Antonio for consumption IN
the packing house there. This In
stitution cost $4,000 and plans
are already being made to double
| its capacity.
At Montery the cotton mill IS be
ing run day and night on cottoI
shipped from this country, whel
we ought to be using good por
ton of it for home consumption
We have the energy and capita
necessary to establish at least on
or two manufacturing enterprise
; right here in Ardmore, and whel
: one factory is started it naturall
calls for another.
With one railroad already her
and good prospects for at least tw
others we should at once solve tn
first problem of a water sur
ply. Give US plenty of water, the
develop our coal mines and facto
ries will be the natural conse
u quence.
. We have more natural advaI
Il tages than either of the cite
nam ed. Our climate is all tn;
l. can be desired. our lands are IL
! richest on earth, for we grow mol
corn, cotton, wheat and oats p'
acre than is grown in almost an
:. other country in the world.
st Get these great industries star
N ed and our vast mineral resourc,
l. will begin to develop. But aft
Sc all, water is the key to the sOlutiC
IF of our future greatness. Let u
as one man, get together and bo
a 2000-foot well and secure got
water, not only for factories, b
for the protection of health of o.
