Denison. Texas. March I've are

10 Europe said Manager S. J. Vance OF
the Denison Milling company. "a few
years ago it was argued that 1t was abso-
lutely impossible to raise wheat and
manufacture -four In Texas, Nearly every
pound of -four used IN the State was i'm
ported. Now all over the state wheat
is raised In paying quantities, and tho
-four mills in Texas are not only supplying
the great bulk of the Texas trade, but are
receiving orders from Europe. They are
running night and day, and then are IN
able to supply the demands for Hour from
abroad. This Is an argument in favor of
Texas factories and Industries. Every
town in Texas that has a Touring mill
has a paying institution. II is profitable
to the farmer. the merchant, the CONNER
cal and Industrial Importance of the town
IN which it is located This Is an argu-
ment in favor OF Touring mills. II 1t Is a
good argument, then the argument In
favor of cotton factories is ten times as
strong. for the cotton crop is the main
crop OF Texas; Northern States can not
raise it--in fact. no State can compete
with Texas in raising cotton. II -four can
be manufactured probably in Texas, then
Texas ought TO manufacture every ounce
of cotton that Is raised In the State. This
is good logic. 1t is good business sense. .
