PLANT WIZARD BURBANK
Is Studying Plant Life In
Mexico.

For the purpose of studying and
experimenting with the guayule shrub
species of cacti. and other Mexican
plants, Luther Burbank, the famous
wizard of the horticultural world, is
now on Coahuila hacienda, says the
Monterey News.
Mr.. Burbank has been in Mexico for
two weeks. He came quietly. I'M
heralded, and in secluded spot near
the station of Villareal, on the Goa
hula and Pacific railroad, is conduct
ing experiments hat may result in
great things.
1t is reported that Mr.. Burbank
now eontemplates coming to Mexico
for a period of study and inyestiga-
ton, and that he viii SO arrange mat
tiers at his home in California that
he can be in this country for from
four o five years.
At the Hacienda de la Pe1a the
wizard is delving into horticultural
problems the solving of which will
endeavor, especially the rubber in
dustry of this country. He is devot-
ing a great deal of attention just now
to the guayule shrub, the.rubber bear
ing weed that has caused hundreds
of thousands of American dollars to
be invested in Mexico. He wants to
find way to make the shrub plenti-
full, to make it grow in different kinds
of soil, to find out under which con-
ditions of soil and water it will best
thrive; how to treat it so that it viii
most plentifully reproduce.
Caeti are also deeply interesting
Mr.. Burbank He is credited with
having developed and by a process
of grating really produced the thorn
less cactus. He has done many won
derful things in his life, and is des-
tined to do other works when he
comes to Mexico for longer stay.

TUESDAY. MARCH .. 1909:

SHOULD OEI 6OSI.
Few subjects have been brought to
the attention of Brownsville that are
of more careful consideration than
that embodied in the recent com
munication sent The Herald by the
Secretary of the Lower Rio Grande
Valley Commercial Club. recommend
ing that early steps be taken to or
ganize for the purpose of making
the midwinter fair at Brownsville a
permanent thing. The great sue
cess Of the fair which was held here
in January, during the joint conven-
ton of the State Horticultural, Nut
Growers and Nurserymen's associa-
tions should encourage our citizens
TO make decided and aggressive
effort to establish the fair as per-
manent feature When it is consid-
cred hat scarcely three weeks was de-
voted to the work of preparing for
the exhibit made last January, the
success of the event was really most
remarkable If the valley could do
so well on such short notice, what
could it not accomplish, if the work
be undertaken in time, and pushed
theoretically during the months
that will intervene between now and
the date when the fair would be held
It is none too early to begin that work
now. To do full justice to the won
-derful resources of this great valley,
by an exposition such as is hoped
for by the friends of this move. it
will require persistent and intelli-
gent work. Nothing perhaps can af-
ford a better advertising medium for
country than an exposition of its
products artistically and effectively
displayed, as they would be at a fair
which would be conducted on such
scale as this would be. Seeing is be-
lieving." and all the talk in the world
will not convince people that we
have the best land and the finest eli
mate for agricultural products. one
half so well as showing the goods
themselves.
The suggestion that suitable
park be secured for a permanent fair
grounds which should accommodate
the various amusement features that
would naturally accompany such an
enterprise. should be acted upon at
once, and an organized move under
taken to make all arrangemnts for
the midwinter fair.

A gentleman by the name of Prem

ship at Brownsville which he will tesa
at Brownsville today Should it be
success, he people of Brownsville
will feel like flying to Corpus Christi
about every other day to take a
swim in our bay.-Corpus Christi
Caller.
No-not for that. but to bring
our Corpus Christi friends down to
Brownsville. so as to show them the
many attractions which this most de-
lightful of all southern winter re-
sorts possesses. AS for the swimming
in Corpus Christi bay, of course. that
is fine. especially for those who have
never known the pleasures of surf
bathing 1t must be said, however,
that the bay is a rather tame attrac-
ton for those who have so near at

of Tarpon Beach. which is Browns
