number Of these, bas, some Of the most
important are pursiy American enter
prises.
A Florida orange grower who had
been ruined by the great frost" OF
IL years ago, went 10 Mexico and
bought few acres in the foothills
near Tampico, on the gulf coast. When
he told his neighbors that he meant
to raise oranges there they laughed at
him. Today the Tampico district ex-
ports its oranges, lemons and grape
fruit TO England and America. The
Floridian who introduced citrus fruit
culture is now millionaire. He was
quick to see the possibilities of q
fruit nursery and has practically a
monopoly of the sale OF young trees
in the republic.
Progress Of Agriculture.
In all the agricultural awakenings"
of Mexico. Americans have played the
alarm clock. The investment in lands
and irrigation schemes is not SO heavy
as that in the mines, but 1t is growing
at remarkable rate. Only a few
months ago Texas ranchman leased
100000 acres of land in the state of
Chiapas, on which TO raise cattle and
horses-a farm three-fourths as large
as the state of Rhode Island The
Palomas ranch, which stretches along
the border for 1863 miles, contains e.
100000 acres-one and one-half times
the area OF Maryland. 1t is owned by
Los Angeles capitalists.
An American project, backed by a
New York syndicate. for adding to the
great irrigated lands in the valley Of
the Nazas river, is described as che
greatest agricultural undertaking in
the hemisphere" 1t is now building
a large dam of a new pattern. main
canal rs miles in length and 800 miles
OF smaller branches 1t will water
nearly $4,000 acres of the finest cotton
lands in Mexico. The output from the
irrigated land in successful season
is said to be one bale to an acre,
which would make the product of
$4,000 acres worth $375,00O in the
New York market
In recent years the purchases OF
sugar plantations and sugar lands by
Americans have been enormous. A
whole district in the sugar region Is
covered with American plantations,
varying in size from 10000 to 100, 900
acres. The smallest of them repre-
sents hundreds of thousands of dol
lars; the larger-and many run above
10000 acres-count for 100000 or
more. In a good season sugar land
has paid as high as SIS an acre of
clear profit.
In mere commerce, OF course, the
United States has a great deal at
stake in Mexico. The imports of the
republic last year were $9S,00O,OO
american money!, and of that traSe
$57,000.000 came from the United
States.

CHANGING SEED FOR GRAIN
No Necessity for Substitution, Ac
cording to Records Kept by Vari-
GUS Experiment Stations.

The records of Experiment Stations
do not show a necessity for changing
seed grains to produce good and salts
factory yields. On the contrary, these
records show that as new seed be-
comes adapted to locality and its
environments, the yield has increased,
with tendency to improvement in
quality. These results have been at
tanned by careful cleaning and grad

varieties of grains have been tested
at the Minnesota station and 1t has
become a matter Of common observa-
ton that new varieties from distant
sources seldom gain satisfactory re-
suits until they become we'll acclimat.

Observation and experiment further
show that the degeneration of varie-

Growing Mushrooms,

Comparatively few farmers or even
gardeners grow mushrooms for the
home table. Their culture Is simple.
and there Is no reason why they
should not be produced more freely
for home consumption. 1t is import

are now several firms which produce

of these firms issue pamphlets and

and $4,000. There are about

Between 1886 and 1908. according to
an official report, the total investment
in Mexico from all sources was $685.

The equivalent in American money Is

States 1856, 000, 900. and all other coun-
tries $3O4.000,OOO. Thus our invest

Mexico herself or of all other foreign
nations. OF course, Americans invest

1905 American property In the neigh

gold" or in American money. Figures
used in this article are reduced to the
American standard.
There are few lines of industry into
which this enormous investment has
not worked its way. The hardware
stores OF Mexico are managed almost
wholly by Germans; street railways
and meat packing are largely controll-
ed by English or Canadian corpora
lions, which. however. number many
Americans among their officers and
stockholders. The tobacco trade is
largely Mexican. In almost every
other field of development American
capital Is either the principal invest
ment or one Of the most important.
American Money In Railroads.
Tourists are surprised to learn that
they can ride from end to end of
Mexico without being Inconvenience
by their ignorance of Spanish. The

conductors. brakemen and engine driv-
ers. The new merger of the Mexican
National railways represents some
American capital as we'll as a strong

The American investment Is essen.
TALLY American railroads is a heavy
one. Yet our railroad investments are
only a small part of the American in
terests in Mexico. Probably the great
er part of the total of $500. 600. 900 has
gone into mining and the industries al
lied with mining. Mexico's produc-
ton of gold last year was $22,44O,0O0,

$35. 100000. Americas share of this
