4 TINS day OF SlO-59 pOrherS on
L L the hoof. said William (''Bill")
Black, OF Dallas. who Is 1umberman
5y profession but a hog raiser by in
clination. 7 don't understand why in
the world FL Paso valley farmers do
not raise more hogs and less hot air
about their fine valley lands The only
answer I can make is that FL Paso
valley land owners are like those
down in the Brownsville country where
the lands are owned by people who
live in the city or come from the city
and know little or nothing about farm
ing or hog raising. We call them st
Louis farmers down in east Texas for
they come out of st. Louis and other
cities without knowing anything about
farming and they wonder why they
make a failure of II after the water
and land and climate are all furnished
There is a fortun in valley hogs if the
farmers will only realize it I sent
car of hogs to the Fort Worth market
recently which topped the market and
I have lot more down or my farm
which viii do the same thing
There is no fear that Japan mas
designs on the Philippines out IN the
Islands themselves said J. r. Barry
engineer with the bureau of public
works at Manila. P 7 Everything Is

of them were too intent upon WrltlnS
about the discomforts, real or a!iegeuI
TO which they had been coIapelIea -
submit and probably some OF the men
in The ranks wrote letters home cal
culated to excite sympathy But Juos
ing from the number OF calls upon
cur department, by correspondents. TOT
Material for stories of FL PasO's growth /
and development and for Photographs
with which TO illustrate those stories
I believe the newspapers are more m
clined 70 tell their readers of the good
things which NAV be told of FL Paso
than they are to waste any more spdSs
on the horned toad and heat STUFF;

I think that motorists and Vehicie
drivers of FL Paso should exercise d
dents as this city Is one OF the most
dangerous in that way that have ever
oeen@ said T. D NeWbrOugh, OF Dalias-
s.No less than seven accidents nave OS-
cured on one street since 1 have Defn
in Fl Paso. and this is entirely too
rluch. as ! arrived in the city but seven
davs ago The street ! have IN MIND
IS Montana One should be surprised
that more accidents 90 not occur, how
army trucks. and the disregard that IS
shown for the traffic ordinance by
some of the jitne men heavy 1lne
would stop il Immediately.
Already the new municipal mar keI
Is being fitted out and grand opening
should be held within a short length
of time of the space owners said X
D. Bousman- Everyone that Is Oh
rectIy connected with market affairs
is glad inasmuch as the occupancy OF
doris at Overland and Kansas streets
who block the street and prevent them
from holding up traffic They viii ne
forced 10 move into the market whica
is centrally located and is easily ac-
oessible-"
