which bears the reputation throughout
the U. S. requires fertilization. It is
an undisputed fact, that he who does
not sow cannot reap. The soil here is
as good as any and better than many
other places, with proper handling and
care. l was impressed with that fact
by many Covingtonians, but l have
a tract of land that was never cul-
tivated before, and with fertilization
of ordinary use, succeeded very nicely
in having as fine truck farm as in
the belt; but there was no market here
for vegetables, and therefore offers
anything but inducement to begin
operation. Some will say why did he
not ship to New Orleans? My answer
to them is that there was too much
for Covington and not enough to ship
to a center like New Orleans, and
would not be profitable, owing to ex-
penditure following same.
My good friends, it is within your
means to show these prejudiced people
that Covington has more attached to
her than the triple form of oxygen
commonly known as ozone. Open the
manufacturing industry here and be-
come among those who strive to use
and dispose of it's products, be it
either in raw state or finished ma
terial. You will then draw the atten-
tion of capital your way, and COM
mand place among thriving indus
tries that have made other countries
famous. See the capital that has gone
to Caddo; mark the leaf Of prosperity
that has been turned her way, i'm
agine there must be a smile on every
face, and hand of welcome extended
to all who visit her. Ask yourselves
why? They have awakened to that
which was dormant in the very heart
of it's mother earth. You must not
infer from my remarks that we are
blessed with the like substance, gas,
but there are other things in this
world besides gas that have made
countries awaken to their value. A
bit of slang at this time would not be
out of place when say ''put this in
your thinker" and see for yourselves
if there are not some greater possi-
bilities for Covington than ozone?
with further developments which
would not affect its standing as a
health resort.
