Every man who grows a crop, wheth-
er it be grain, alfalfa, vegetables or
fruit, realizes that his profits depend
upon to the u We
propose showing the possibilities for
the growing of citrus and semi tropi-
cal fruits in the Lower Rio Grande
Valley of Texas.
Few persons realize how near this
favored valley is TO the northern mar
kets, to the big cities of the north and
east with their teeming millions who
must be fed and who must have fruit.
When the Rio Grande Valley is once
well developed as a fruit district there
will be vast quantities shipped out,
and the saving on freight over ship
mentS from far famed and favored Cal
ifornia will alone make a good profit on
the investment. From La Feria. Texas
TO Chicago or New York or Boston is
a saving of 1900 miles as compared
with fruits shipped from California.
Not everyone realizes the bigness of
Texas or knows that this sunny valley
is more than 300 miles further south
than San Diego, California. No more
fertile soil can be found than that along
the Rio Grande Valley. This is a fact
easily demonstrated. The water sup
ply taken from that river, is abundant,
and this combinations soil of I'M
fathomed richness, perfect climate and
abundance of water-mus yield the
richest eturns. In fact there is a
continuous growing season twelve
months in every year.
You have heard much and read more
of the famous orange belt of California,
of Riverside, Redlands, of San Bernar-
dino and Pomona and other favored
beauty spots where oranges, lemons,
olives grape fruit and lines are grown
TO perfection and where men have
made fortunes from their groves and
orchards. Perhaps you have envied
the men who got first into those fertile
valleys. You know that now there
are no more lands to be had in those
sections and not any more water for
future development. You know, too,
that a producing orange grove is
worth a great deal of money, 1880 to
$40, 1000 per acre. Had you been there
in am early day you would have laugh
ed at the idea of anything ever being
grown in southern California. We
offer you a better opportunity today
than was ever presented to the first
settlers of California. We are placing

three years old. Contrast that with
either Florida or California, where
seven to ten years are necessary to
bring a tree into fruitage, Then the
flavor, color and size of the Texas fruit
are points to be considered. You
would not believe us il we were to tell
you of the size of some of the lemons
and grape fruit in that valley. They
are hanging on the trees and we want
you to go with us and see for yourself.
What some one tells you is not SO sat
isfactory as personal investigation.
Those now living in the valley are
experimenting with all varieties of cit
rus fruits-lemons, oranges, grape
fruit and also with semi-tropical and
tropical fruits, such as bananas, qua
vas, ~breadfruit, roselles and with all
the varieties of grapes produced in any
other country-raisin, wine and table
fruit. So far all these fruits give pro-
mise of great success This in itself
is a guarantee for a remarkable future
in the valley. There is no cold wealth
err. no storms, no high winds, no in
sect pests. 1t is furthermost south of
any mainland in the United States and
most immune from frost.
Tests of the temperature have been
made and it is found hat the soil is al
ways warm, showing 10 degrees in
January at a depth of Is feet. Is it
any wonder trees will grow? They
never stop. On the other hand it is
not so excessively warm in summer;
the invigorating and cool gulf breezes
keep down the summer heat SO that a
temperature in excess of so degrees is
unusual. Contrast this with the range
of temperature in the corn belt, from
los degrees above to % degrees below.
There is not as great a range OF tenn
perature in the Rio Grande Valley OF
Texas as is in the orange belt of either
California or Florida. Here we have

Dangers Of Crowds.

When q man is standing still his
weight acts vertically downward, but
on moving he exerts side thrust
greater than his weight. Consequently
a crowd moving rapidly on structure
like q pier exerts a tremendous side
wise pressure which tends to throw
the pier over. If man stands on q
plank bridge 1t bends slightly. but II
he walks across 1t sways violently up
md down. A regiment of soldiers
marching In step across trestle or
other light bridge would cause such a
tremendous swaying motion that 1t
would give way, and so soldiers al
ways ''break step" in crossing such a
bridge.
On certain swing footbridge across
a glen In the north of Scotland is a
notice forbidding Newfoundland dogs
to be taken across These dogs trot
in such perfect rhythm as to cause
dangerous sway" in a small bridge.
A man rising to standing from a
sitting posture exerts on the ground a
force equal to twice his weight. Thus
when a crowd suddenly springs to tts
feet at q football match or theater the
strain on the supporting stands IS
enormous and has to be allowed for by
the Weekly.

should not be taught to wash the hair

boy gets old enough to Wasl, his ears
and to keep his face clean down to
