Culverts should be constructed across
the street where necessary, with open

The cross section of culverts should be
calculated with some degree of accu-

up to twenty-four inches in diameter.
Care should be taken to give not less

where travel is very heavy six inch

course of two inch stone at the bottom.

denced at these places. Mr.. Con-
dell expects TO take a trip up the
river in a day or so to inspect that
section. He takes very sensible
view of matters and says pros
pector can gain no idea of the ad-
vantages and possibilities of the
section in two days visit, but
must go to those places where de-
monstrations have been made as 10
the capabilities of the soil THE
HERALD has always contended this,
yet many prospectors come in the
afternoon, spend one night and
leave next morning with worse
than no idea of the country and
what may be accomplished here.
These flying visits are more apt to
do.harm than good, so far as OBJ
tanning correct idea of the gener-
al conditions is concerned, and
THE HERALD would be glad TO see
people here and stay long enough
to know what they were talking
about when they return home, and
were asked by their neighbors what
could be reasonably expected of the
Brownsville section.
Burton D. Hurd, president OF
the American Rice Cereal company
of Kansas City, was among those
coming in yesterday afternoon.
The company he represents has
been engaged some time in the
bringing of actual settlers into
various sections of Texas, and has
been very successful in this line OF
work. Mr.. Hurd has visited the
BROWNSVILLE country several times
before, and recognizes the absolute
importance of immigration to this
section. His previous visits have
been for the purpose of inspection
and to become more intimately &C
quainted with conditions. He IS
now convinced that his company
has fine field for work here and
Mr.. Hurd will spend several days
looking the proposition over. THE
HERALD hopes our people will
give Mr.. Hu1d all possible as
sistance, as no one can fail to
realize that the principal thing the
country needs in more people.
