SPEECH OF THE GOVERNOR
WHAT SORT OF A SHOWING TEXAS

II the People of the State Can Grow
Cotton. They Can Manufacture
It and Should.

There was large crowd present to hear
the address of Governor Sayers. He S
in good voice and the subject was one
which appealed to him strongly.
The speaker said that he had not long
ago received a letter from Secretary Of
Agriculture Wilson asking for igmes show
ing the maximum amount Of cotton Texas
could raise attention being devoted At the
same time to the raising of corn, wheat
and other cereals II, the governor went
on TO state, THE FARMERS or TEXAS

THE GINS, THEY COULD AND W.
GROW MORE THAN 100000 BALES

The counties of wharton, Matagorda
Colorado aud Brazoria, the speaker sa d.,
contained more sugar lands than the n
tire State OF Louisiana.
One-seYenth ot the peach crop or the
United states wns raised in Texas Aud
there was available for the peach raising
Industry ten times as mucn land as Is now
under cultivation for that purpose.
In ten years from now Texas would nave
more rice under cultivation than Louisiana.
THE corn crop Of Texas was the nth
largest Of the States Of the Union,
Tobacco was being successfully raised 10
several sections.
There was, the Governor said, no coun-
Try on earth like Texas IN diversity OF
resources. 1t was the only geographical
division which had within its own Dor
ders everything that was needed for the
comfort and happiness OF its people, il
its resources were rightly used.
/ Going down to the subject OF the Clero
cotton mill, the speaker congratulated the
people Of Cuero and De Witt county on the
establishment OF the new enterprise II

dustrial movement which could result IN
nothing but good for the entire state. HC

Of 2.JO0,OO0 bales annually and the price
