ton Of the business being offered from
the Republic of Mexico. A car of eggs
represents an egg value OF from $500
to $4,000. One hundred and ninety cars
Of eggs therefore, represents approx
mately value of tbree-fourths Of mil
lion dollars which the farmers OF Kan
sas, Nebraska, Illinois and Missouri, are
DOW supplying Mexico. The poultry men
Of San Antonio district have been
aroused to the necessity for business Or
CARNATIONS, to pool their interests, and
capitalize upon this grand opportunity to
supply the needs of Mexico.
"Tbe third line Of investigation has
reference to the boys and girls of Bexar
county. Miss Ida r. Reynolds, in her
capacity rs Home Demonstration Agent
for Bexar county, is working out well
designed program for developing a home
garden upon every farm where there are
boys and girls. This campaign will be
co-Ordinated with joint program Of in
structton by myself, in the planting, cul-
tivation, and management OF home gar
dens. Miss Reynolds will supervise the
canning Of vegetables, and all garden
products, thereby not only supplying the
home, but creating a surplus for sale.
A further purpose Of this campaign is
TO begin Thinning the girls for a field
of usefulness in connection with the
commercial canning industry.

Dairy calf clubs, poultry, corn and cot

partment Of the Chamber Of Commerce.
The result of this survey has been for
INFLATED into a definite outline of an
agricultural policy for the Chamber of
Commerce Of San Antonio.
The general farmers were the first
to be called to confer upon the feasibili-
ty of the project Of alfalfa culture. As
result of our activities in relation TO
this important crop, more than 81 farm
ers have undertaken the culture Of alfal-
in in the vicinity OF San Antonio.
Through the cooperation of county
agents in adjoining counties, a few dem
onstrations have been organised in sew
eral counties surrounding Bear coun-
~. Approximately a ton of the beat
true type hairy Peruvian alfalfa seed
has been distributed in organizing and
starting this very important project. 1t
is our vision that alfalfa may be eco
nomically produced TO a greater or lesser
When it is remembered that not only
car lots but what would represent train
loads Of alfalfa and forage hay crops,
are shipped into San Antonio each year,
it becomes evident to what extent the
farmers Of Bexar county viii be assist
ed If the way is shown them Of produe-
ing alfalfa for supplying the San An
tonic market alone.
The second unit with which a con-
ference was held was that of the Lone
Star Poultry Association Of Bexar coun-
ty. The agricultural department Of the
Chamber of Commerce submitted re-
quests and orders for a thousand live
birds a month of one breed alone, to
supply the needs of the Republic of Mex
leo. Demands have been made by the
commercial hatcheries of the North,
which supply baby chicks to the South,
for thousands Of Matching eggs per
month. This demand could not be sup
piled. In addition, the statistics Of the
movements Of 100 carloads Of eggs
through San Antonio on their way
through the Laredo gateway, into Me1i-
co, for the eight months period, March
to October, inclusive, reveals a remark
sble opportunity in South Texas to sup
ply the demand of the Republic of Mex
leo, for eggs alone.
"A very substantial program Of eI-
pansion is now being organized among

farms, so as to supply at least poT-

at is hardly necessary to point out IN
detail TO this body of keen and alert bust
ness men the beneficial results to this
community which will follow the develop
ment Of the Medina enterprise along right
lines. The sale Of approximately 1000
fertile irrigated farms, capable Of predue-
ing wide variety Of profitable crops the
year around, viii not only create here a
vast amount of new wealth but also re-
suit in q greatly increased demand for
goods and services of all kinds, much of
which will no doubt be supplied by this
city. As the farms begin to be taken up
by the new owners the effect viii be i'm

Antonio, rs the new settlers will be in

mals, tractors, automobiles, farm imple-
ments, household goods, seed, trees and
plants and the innumersble other things
used and required by successful and pros
porous people.
so much for what the development Of
the Medina farms will mean to this com
munity. Now, trust you will permit
me 10 briefly suggest what San Antonio
can do for the enterprise. In the first
place, we bespeak for it your good will;
that alone will be Of inestimable value.
This organization and others here can
render helpful assistance in many prac-
teal ways, which / will not attempt to
enumerate but which viii readily occur
to you. They can, for example, welcome
the newcomers on these lands as neigh
bors and make them feel happy and at

with them in the various relations which
you will inevitably have with one an

pOrtunity but one in which the social
moral and intellectual atmosphere is con-
dnciye to success, happiness, eontentment
and weIl-being.
This is a most detachable country. 1t
would be interesting to discuss with you
its many possibilities in detail. Per-
hops ! may have other opportunities
later to develop with particularly some
phases of the undertaking which seem
to me to hold forth the promise Of great
value to you IN your efforts to keep San
Antonio first in Texas. At this time 1
can only say that We hope and expect
to build on the Medina farms a com
munity which vii demonstrate in the
fullest degree the iHnumerable possibili-
ties Of this delightful and fruitful re-
view. The combination of fertile soil,
irrigation, ample transportation by rail-
road and paved highway and markets
found here, needs only skill and labor
to make Of it as beautiful, bountiful,
pleasant and prosperous a land rs ex-
lists anywhere. Those now in charge Of
bringing to fruition the tremendous pos
sibilities Of this great enterprise are
keenly aware Of the responsibilities in
volved, but they are also confident that,
With your goodwill and cordial help, the
undertaking can and will be brought TO
a successful consummation."

house for q greater cattle and poultry
