The first Of the series Of three
Trades Days. Tuesday, July 3. will be
one of the biggest events in the his
tory Of the city. according to mer-
chants who have been distributing the
Trades Day tickets They state that
the demand for tickets has exceeded
oil expectations, and that the biggest
Icrowd on record will be present for the
drawing of the Ford car. Customers
from all parts Of the Valley are de-
manding tickets, they state, and il the
weather is favorable, there will not be
. community which will not be well
represented in Brownsville next Tues
day.
Brownsville merchants are making
preparations for the event by offering
q big line of seasonable goods Mt great
ly reduced prices, prices which cannot
fail to be an attraction to Valley buy
ers. Everything from clothing to tin
ware and farm implements will be Of
fered at special reductions on Trades
Day. making it bargain event that
Valley people cannot afford to over
look There will be plenty of music by
the Twelfth Cavalry band. free pic
ture shows mt the Queen ard Dream
land theatres. and various other a
musement features.
The first Trades Day comes as an
opportune. time for the Valley farm
ers. "A I0cal business man stated this
morning. Cotton picking season will
soon be here and the farmers will be
too busy to come 20 town to secure
supplies. Many Of them will take ad-
vantage Of the Trades Day opportunity
TO purchase their supplies for the cot
ton seasoS, securing them at prices
which will mean big saving.
"The farmers should take into con-
sideratien the fact that they are going
20 have q very busy season ahead Of
them. They will soon be harvesting the
biggest cotton crop the Valley has ever
produced. and their time will be de-
voted more to harvesting and market
ing with very little time for shopping.
II will be to their advantage to come
70 Brownsville on this FIRST Trades
Day and secure sufficient supplies to
last them through the busy season."
Many Of the Brownsville stores are
displaying special Trades Day bargains
in their windows. and there is hardly a
store in the city which will not offer
