and from prolific and regular bear
ing tree.
Horticulturists. merchants, CONNER
cial clubs. real estate men and all In
terested parties in each county are re
quested to offer nut growers induce
ments to join us in this work of i'm
proving and extending nut growing.
The most alarming crisis impend
ing before this country is the perilous
short food supply caused by an In
creasing population and by decreas'
ing fertility of the soil from which the
food supply is drawn. The only meth
cd we have by which we can avert this
critical emergency is that Of making
heavier drafts upon the soil. Our an
nual method of drawing upon the soil
has been confined to few inches on
the surface, through the agency OF an
nual plants. short-rooted and short
live plants. We now realize the fact
that this thin layer of soil is losing its
fertility which must be augmented In
some way.
The easiest and most efficacious
method OF increasing the yield OF the
soil is found in the planting of deep
rooted, deep-feeding plants such as
fruit and nut treasures that send
their roots down many feet below the
surface where they feed upon rich ele-
ments far below the reach Of annual
plants, such as grass and grain.
A conservative estimate fixes 10
acres OF grass land necessary to sup.
ply a family with beef one year. The
same conservative estimate fixes one
,cre of land planted to the best COM
nercial varieties of pecans to produce
he equivalent annual supply of food
or a family. The labor and expense
II production is greatly in favor of the
tut supply.
Nuts are the natural food of man.
more wholesome and more sanitary
han any animal food. All animality
invites impurities of disease. and
laughter insures us to shedding of
lood and to taking of life, all of which

Tree growth will also re-establish
urface fertility of soil, increase rain
all, check the rasping wind and mod

After we have exhibited the nuts

In a full column interviews insthp Gal

of Brownsville. who is in Galveston

project for Brownsville. tells the reid
ers of the News what the Valley has and
what.i it hopes fer in the way Of il har-
Dor of 1S-foot or Il greater depth. even so
great as Is feet.
Mr.. Coblini talked of the hugcncss #
the Lower Rio Grandc Valley, its com
mercial and agricultural future: he told
of the possibilities II the chcapcning OF
freight rates between this point and New
York City and eastern ports.
In part Mr. CObolini said:
AT Point Isabel we would like to have
f rty-tive feet of water on the bar. just
as YOU would like to have forty-fivc feet
here at Galveston; for we look ahead
and not foOlishly far ahead, either. Con

even larger vessels; for the tonnage rate
of water decreases proportionatcly with
the increase of the vessels carrying ca
pacity, and the cheaper the rate to the
shipper, the greater the bulk Of bust
ness for the transportation line.
But while we would like a forty-fivc
foot depth at Isabel, we have Il lively
sense of the immediate proprietics,' s.
we are going before congress with three
tentative projects: The first calls for
an cightecn-foOt channel with north and
south j%cttirS of Il combined length Of
$500 feet. the second for Il twcnty-four-
foot channel and 10000 feet # ~jetties,
the third for IA thirty-foot channel and
1890 feet of %jctties. The first project
would cost -. 100 900. the second <3.350.-
900. the ihird $l.200.000 We hope for
the thirty foot depth. We would like 70

BECAUSE a MAN HAS NOTHING

I The world needs the forward looking
Z man. There is little uSe for the man

i The man possessed OF little wealth

fails 10 look forward.
There is really no reason why Il man
should not look forward and hope for
bctter things. There is every reason
TO argue against never ! oking at all.
ContcntcG he with what he has
Will always be inst what he was.
The wholesome man is he, who forget
ting the disappointmcnts and profting
by the mistakes of the past, uses the
present to get the best out of it to store
up as joys for the future.
What a mistake it is TO think that
present joys will make up for a barren

This is the principal of the Hcrald's
