IN THE q BOWL.

Brownsville Herald: "The people Of
Donna and the neighborhood are to be
congratulated on the Opening'of the new
sugar mill at that place The good cane
crop in that ncighborhOod this year will
find Il convenient market. and that will
%ncourag an increased acreage next year.
All indications are that sugar growing
will be a source of great profit in that
part of the valley"
This Donna factory is the fourth SUI
gar mill for the lower Rio Grande coun-
try. 1t is a magnificent showing for the
best sugar producing area in the South,
and marks Il step in the progress of in
duStial development of the country along
the Frisco railway that is being promot-
ed by Mr.. Noakum so much to the advan-
tagc of the whole state of Texas. The He
raid notes that it is likely that sugar
growing is to he a source of great profit
to that section of the valley wherein
Donna is located. This is likely. And in
addition to sugar production there are
numhcrleSS other avenues for agriculture
nj and industrial progress. not only in
the Rio Grande Valley. but all through
the coast region of Texas. that are Ger
tain to develop with even greater rapid
