In running ribbon through embroid- cry beading it must be handled care fully or it will show the imprints of the fingers. Instead of beginning at one end start to run the ribbon through the center, measuring the ribbon in halves and fastening 1t at the center of the garment with pin. Draw through one-half and then begin with the other. This makes less handling of the entire length, as the ribbon is only drawn through that portion in which it is to stay. Try this in running silk through your underwear It will prevent it from becoming stringy.

Always a Boost for Brownsville.

Jesse Carmichael, a newspaper
correspondent Of Washington ID. O.,
who has been making a tour through
fourteen Southern states, was a Wis
itor in Brownsville this week. Mr..
remarked to a Herald re-
porter that he was greatly surprised
at the manifold prosperity of this
country, especially as this is a cam
paign year. Mr.. Carmichael has
made this Southern tour six times,
but never got down to Brownsville
before. He also remarked that he
thought this the most progressive
district that he has travelled through,
with its up to the latest improve
it's rapidly increasing popu-
and the large number of
moneyed people who are flocking
into the country to grab up some of
the rich land that lies in the Valley
and to invest in other business en-
.terprises. He said that he will al
ways have a boost for Brownsville.

IMPROVEMENTS FOR
6R0WNSVLLER0AD
PLANNED FOR NEAR FUTURE BY
MIR. YOAKUM
Brownsville Country Has 0utgrown
It's Railroad Facilities and Frisco
Officials Propose to Catch up With
out Loss of Time.

Frankly admitting that the
Brownsville Country has far out
grown its present railroad facilities,
the Frisco officials acknowledge the
necessity for extensive improvements
on the Brownsville Road and have
promised to make them. This is the
result of the visit last week of B. f.
Yoakum, chairman of the executive
board of the Frisco. and of w. G.
Nixon, senior vice president Of the
line, who spent about ten days in
the Valley just prior to Mr.. Yoa-
kum's arrival. Their observations
have convinced them of the pressing
necessity for additional shipping ia
cilities here and, they have an
nounced that next year the company
will be prepared to handle all the
shipments of produce offered by the
Valley.
According to the Houston Post the
improvements that will be put in
as a result Of their observations Of
conditions will be greatly enlarged
facilities for handling freight and
express. Warerooms, sidetracks, ice
plants and preceding plants are all
on the list and appropriations will

Immense Increase in Express
Shipments.

Inc post says Iuftner. DESPITE all
the hopes and dreams of the railroad
officials, the Brownsville Country
has improved more rapidly than they
imagined and the amount of produce
raised in that district this season
was far greater than anticipated.
Consequently they were not temper
arily prepared to handle the ship
ments that were piled upon them as
readily as they wished to.
The express business on the
Brownsville line, according to a
statement of the higher officials, has
so outgrown the facilities for ham
ding it that the passenger trains
have been running late, sometimes
for hours. The officials admitted
that a congestion did exist on the
Brownsville Road for a while this
spring, but stated they had been able
to get things into running order
again and that everything is now
normal. The bulk of the crop has
been moved.
Next year, in order to handle the
great vegetable shipments, and the
rapidly increasing express business.
the company will run special express
trains, in addition to the regular
passenger trains. They have found
this will be necessary in order to ac-
commodate the shippers.
Mr.. Yoakum has always been very
optimistic with regard to that sec
tion of the state, but he seemed yes
terday to be more enthusiastic than
usual over the prospects, probably
due to the fine condition the country
is in at the present time.
1--WE claim that this coast coun-
try is the greatest country in the
world" said Colonel Yoakum to a
Post representative at the Bender
hotel yesterday afternoon.
I'VE make these claims for three
reasons he continued. First is
the climate, second the fertility of
the soil, and, third, the accessibility
to the markets Of the country. Hous-
ton is the gateway through which
nearly all of the products must pass
in reaching the markets to the north
and Houston Is the business and COM
mercial center from which the peo-
pie in that section will buy much of
their supplies. The development Of
the coast country, therefore, means
more to Houston than to any other
city of the country. | predict that
within five years time there will be
more than a million of people in the
Texas coast country and Lower Rio.
