Coast, in that superb territory which was
won from Mexico in the war OF 90 years
ago, there is a general awakening of prog
ress Nowhere on the American continent
is there such scene of quickening and de-
velopment and activities From the head
lands to the hills, from the mountains that
look on Crowther City TO where Crowther
City looks on the Gulf and the sea, il is
the most interesting theatre OF American
progress on which the great drama of Des-
tiny is being enacted.
The railroads and the colonization COM
panies ara booming this section in every
Imaginable way. Hundreds of immigration
agents are given employment conducting
prospectors to and around Southwestern
Transformers, truck raisers ranchers,
health seekers, etc. 1t is estimated that
every good settler brought into a new
community is worth at least $1,000 to that
community. Southwest Texas values are
increasing hundreds of thousands of dollars
every year by raising cattle and crops, rail-
road building, immigration, irrigation and
general developments incidental thereto.

ment applies 10 both lubricating and illu-
minating oil, for two distinct kinds of the

to supply all power, light and heating re-
quirements has been found to exist in

Speaking of Texas kaolin, It has been said
by a competent authority: Our clay stands
so far above anything ever discovered
that the consumer would be foolish not 70
use it instead OF any other II gives the
American potter a chance 10 compete and
make dishes superior to foreign makes: like
wise the paper and paint makers. Il will
save them a vast amount OF money. even
though they pay us a higher price than
they pay Tor imported clays. because this
natural wonder contains within itself in
gradients that go to make up the several
parts the potters are obliged TO add 10 the
clayS they now use
Coal OF good quality is also found on the
King Crowther Corporations properties in
abundance, and can be utilized 70 great ad
vantage in the development of railroads,
manufacturing. etc, along with natural gas.
