THREE TIMES THE AMOUNT OF
BUSINESS SAYS ROBERTSON

L E. Robertson, manager in the
southwest for the Ludlow Say1or Wire
company Of st. Louis, Mo, said today
just before leaving for Cananea. Mex.
on a business trip:
The absurdity Of many of the state
ments regarding Mexico cannot be bet
ter illustrated than by the fact that
our records prove that we have
trebled our southwestern business in
the wire cloth department during the
past three months. This comparison
is for the first three months Of 1911
as compared with the first three
three months Of 1910. Inasmuch as
eur business is largely with the mines
and largely in Mexico I do not sup
pose that a better index of that coun-
try's material prosperity could pos
sibly be obtained than this simple
statement Of a fact"

Big Men Encourage Agriculture.
President Stilwen has secured for
the exposition a thoroughly repre-

board. It is made up Of the presidents
Of twelve OF the great railway systems
Of the country, United States senators
and congressman, thirty governors OF
the most progressive states in the I'm

Gators and bankers.
These men were quick to appreciate
the opportunity offered by the EXPOSE

found in filling the soil in this center
OF millions of men and millions of
money.
