VALLEYS FIRST
BALE ON JUNE 8
Matamoros Grower Bales His
First Cotton, and Thus
Gets Record for American
Continent.

While the credit for producing the
first bale of cotton in the United
States for the season Of 1919 goes to
Hidalgo county, the first bale actual
ly produced on the American contin-
ent was raised within three miles of
Brownsville, but on the Mexican side
of the Rio Grande.
The bale was gathered on the farm
of f. j. Puig, former American vice
consul in Matamoros, on June o, or
just twenty days ahead of the bale
ginned in Hidalgo county, near Edin-
burg. 1t is believed this is the ear
liest on record in the Valley.
Mr.. Puig was in Brownsville We'd
nesday for the first time since the
bale was taken off the field, and
announced his first bale. This
Mexican cotton is barred from ex-
port to the United States on account
of the pink boil worm law, and the
product of the Puig farm, which has
several hundred acres of the finest
cotton ever seen in this section, prob
ably will be sent to Mexico mills in
the interior, or else exported to Eu-
rope through the port of Vera Cruz
Mexican and American entomolo-
gists, cooperating in pink boil worm
Investigations, several days ago Wis
tied the Puig farm, and reported that
there was no indication of pink boil
worm though some holl weevil and
ordinary cotton worm were found.

Advices from Mexico indicate
Mexico's legislatures has under
consideration the claims of Amer
ican citizens sustained in the
various raids of Mexican bandits

and the United States. These
claims have been passed upon by
the indemnity commission of the
Carranza government. More
than 10000 claims aggregating
$3.50, 900, 900 have been filed with
the commission by both Mexicans
and foreigners covering the whole
period of the revolution. dating
from the uprising in Cananea,
Sonora, about ten years ago.
It is probable that congress of
Mexico will also be called upon
to take action on the demands of
the oil men for a less drastic law
covering the production and sale
of oil in the republic. At the
present time the laws of Mexico
covering the oil fields amounts to

WHEN THE BOYS COME HOME

There will be day of gladness

When the boys come home.
Never were there hearts more loyal
And their welcome will be royal
That's because they're REALLY ROYAL
When the boys come home.
Cheer on cheer will greet each soldier
When the boys come home.
Truly there are none that's bolder
When the boys come home;
For, amid the roar and rattle,
In the fercest din of battle,
We shall know they were not cattle
When the boys come home.
Proud? All, yes, when we behold them!
When the boys come home;
In our arms we will enfold them
When the boys come home.
Gratitude beyond all measure
We will give each gallant treasure
Give it with it with heartfelt pleasure
When the boys come home.
Gayly will the bells be ringing,
When the boys come home;
Girls and boys in chorus singing
When the boys come home;
Stars and stripes so proudly flying
With the peoples JOY are vying.
Is there one who thinks of signing
When the boys come home?
We will count each brave, brave hero
When the boys come home.
Not single one Nero
When the boys come home.
Can it be that one is missing
Chronicled among the missing
One fine fellow we're not kissing
When the boys come home?
They will leave across the ocean,
When the boys come home,
One who died for his devotion
When the boys come home.
On the battle field he's sleeping,
One lone flag its guard is keeping
And the sons of France are weeping
When the boys come home.
At the height of manhood's glory,
When the boys come home,
They will tell the sad. grand story
When the boys come home;
How the highest place he's taking
While mothers heart is aching
And the little wife's is breaking
When the boys come home.
