own crew, proceeding to its destina-

INDIANA HARBOR
Congressman Crumpacker
Replies Favorably to Let
ter Of P. A. Parks.
(special to Lake county Timcs.)

Indiana Harbor, Ind, Aug. 23-In
answer to a letter from R A Parks
LOT the city relative to the establish
ing of a free delivery in Indiana
Flarbor, Congressman Crumpacker has
said he thought the people of the Har-
Dor were entitled to the innovation
and that he would do all in his power
to help them get it.
There are certain requirements for
the installation of free delivery such
as the size of the population. the walks,
the condition of the streets and the
numbering of the houses.
1t is said that all or most of these
requirements have been satisfied in
Indiana Harbor and that is Is very
likely that the service will be put in.
Mr.. Crumpaeker viii take the mat
ter up with the postal officials and it
expected that an inspector will be out
shortly to make an investigation and
report.
The people of the Harbor Will well
come a change along this line, and this
together with the fact that the location
of the office is to be changed to quar-
ters which will be much more desir-
able will mean a welcome improvement

Quick Results With String Beans

One instance. of what can be
done with truck in very short time
in this section is that of Mr.. Wake
man, a planter near HidaIgo. Com
ing to this section early in March,
Mr.. Wakeman rented eight acres
of land from the HidaIgo company
and went to work at once, planting
the land in string beans. On Sat
urday, May Is, he shipped eighty
bushels of string beans from this
field, which was about the last of
his crop, and made in all 1880
bushels which he has shipped from
the same field. The prices realized
by Mr.. Wakeman have been from
81 to $3.50 per bushel, making
over $3.50 on his eight-acre trac.
in about two aud half months
time.

THE long expected through ser.
vice from Brownsville to Houston
over the St. Louis, Brownsville
and Mexico road is at last about to
be inaugurated, and, beginning
Sunday next, passengers can go
from Brownsville to Houston, or
come from Houston to Brownsville,
without changing cars, in one day.
The new schedule will necessitate
persons leaving Brownsville quit
ting their touches over an hour
earlier than at presnt, but when
one thinks of the great con-
veuience of reaching Houston
the same day of leaving
Brownsville, that does not apper
such hardship, and then, too,
there is consolation in the thought
that early rising is said to be con-
ducive to health.

CoIored Bottles for Milk.


French mothers are greatly in

have the milk which they give
their children after they are wean-
ed kept in colored glass bottles.
Milk, they advise, was never in

Experiments have shown that milk
which is kept in colored glass is
far superior to that which is serv-
ed in the ordinary white glass bot

DEVELOPMENT IN NEAR
FUTURE.

There are far greater things IN
store for the Brownsville country
than ever dreamt of perhaps by any
of the older residents of this sec
tion. The developments that have
taken place here within the past
few months have been great, but
the near future has in store far
greater developments. The Browns
vile country is still only at the be-
ginning of the realization of the
wonderful transformation which
The HERALD has for fifteen years
been foretelling for it. Enterprises
with millions back of them are al
ready under way in this rich Nile
valley of America, but they are
few in number as yet, and are only
preparing for future operation
These are but the forerunners of |
dozens of other projects of even
vaster proportions which will be
lnaugurated here before the current
year shall have run its course
The future is indeed big with
promise for this favored section.
And Brownsville may be the me
tropolis of this country, the actual
queen Of this sun-kissed lower Rio
Grande valley, if her citizens will {
but realize their opportunity and
grasp it ere it passes. t

THE ownership of the Browns

THE ownership of the Browns
vile railroad probably will soon be
determined, according to the press
dispatches relative to conferences
held by heads of the Rock Island
aud Frisco systems at Houston the
past few days. 1t is quite possible
'that the settlement of this question
may also settle the question of the
construction of another railroad to
Brownsville.

Texas And Insurance Companies

I The withdrawal of the big in
surauce companies from Texas be-
cause of the passage of the new
laws requiring foreign insurance
concerns to invest or deposit within
the State Is per cent of the reserve
upon Texas policies, has not caus-
ed the CONSERVATION in the Lone
Star State that the withdrawing
companies expected. On the con
trary, Texas, being a rich and
prosperous State, is fully able to
provide her people with insurance,
and from ali accounts is getting
ready to do it. There is not the
least doubt that Texas will profit
much by conducting her own in
surance companies and keeping at
home for investment in developing
the money her people
have been paying out for premiums
to foreign companies. The truth is
the whole country realizes that the
Texans who buy life insurance can
lot be blamed for wishing to know
low their reserve money is spent,
considering, as the New York
World says, the investment Part
Ter Perkins made for the New :
York Life in Republican National
Committee preferred, a kind of
ecuTity in which comparatively
ew Texans have any faith. .
1t would mean much for all the
'outhern States if they were to
uild up their own insurance COM Z
anies and become absolutely in
ependent of the morally rotten
which have their
eadquarters in New York.-New \
orleans States.

FIX TAX RATES IN AUGUST
Governor Says 1t is Duty Of County As
SCISSOR to Furnish Estimate by
August |.

The following from the San An
tonic Express shows that the tax
levy under the new law should be
made in August, and that the coun-
ty assessor is expected to report
the assessed valuation of county
property by Aug. l:
County Judge Phil H. Shook re-
ceived a message from the County
Commissioners Court of Medina
County that the court had read in
the Express that the tax rate for
this county will not be levied until
August. The court in Medina
County expressed the opinion that
it must be levied before that time
in compliance with the statutes.
To make sure of the matter
Judge Shook telephoned Governor
Campbell. The Governor said that
the State rate will be fixed August
II and the county rate may be fix
ed at the same time. He said that
it is the duty of the County asses
sor to furnish to the County Com
missiouers' Court on August l the
assessed valuation or the best esti-
mate of it he can make, and the
rate will be levied on this.
County assessment can be made
until June 1, and after that date
the County Board of Equalization
will be in session.
