Mexico Is Buying
Farm Implements
By The TrGinLOad

Reconstruction in Mexico is rapidly
getting into full swing, said w. r.
English, freight traffic agent Tor the
Nashville, Chattanooga & st. Louis
who has just returned from Laredo
Tex, and other Mexican border points.
where he was soliciting his share OF
the rapidly increasing freight traffic
that is beginning to move across, the
border.
American merchandise is already
moving into Old Mexico in trainloads
according to Mr.. English. Confidence
in the government seems to be>1uny
restored, judging from the manner OF
the Mexicans who come to the border
towns to trade. Not the slightest en-
nifty is shown by the people toward the
United States.
Farm implements and iron and steel
goods OF all kinds are in heavy de-
mand. Mr.. English saw 10 carloads
of farm machinery in one train deS-
tined for interior Mexico. The ran,
roads are reconstructing their lines and
repairing their equipment.
Money seems to be plentiful with the
Mexicans, Mr.. English said, for they
come into the border towns and re-
turn loRded down with packages
A new spirit of friendliness toward
the United States is being cultivated
by the leaders of the Mexican people
as was shown by the speeches of Mexi-
| can orators at a recent patriotic >cele-
| bration. Mr. English attended one OF
these celebrations. These orations, as
well as he was able to gather from
| the Spanish language, and as inter.
preted by friends, were replete witt
| friendly references to United States
and urged that the progress and pros
perity OF the southern republic wa:
linked with harmonious corporation
with the great republic to the north.
