Of a godo market. OF course, the
heavy demand for Valley products Is
IN the Valley markets and throughout
South Texas, but the time will come
when we will be shipping large guam
titles into the Northern and Eastern
markets.
"The growth Of this plant may be
attributed 70 the fact that we have
always turned out products Of the
highest quality. We select our vege-
tables carefully. Growers are in
structed when to plant and when to
harvest, and we use only the best
grades. The result Is a superior
cunlitv Of product. and from The time
the first plsnt was established in
1915 we have found II difficult to fill
the demand"
This vear tha plant will be in oper
alton about eirht months, handline
the late spring tomatoes until the
middle Of June. But the owners elan
70 increase the operating period 70
rbout ten months. IL arrangements
c,n be mrdc TO secure a supply Of
later vegetables.

Turnip and mustard green's are also
new products for which a heavy de-
mand has been created. and which are
expected 10 eventually ccme into high
favor on the Northern markets.
The plant, IL addition TO being the
largest in Texas, is thoroughly mod
ern IN every detail. The handling Of
vegetables Is almost automatic, and
sney are not touched from ne time
they are placed in the washing de-
vices. From hat point on they are
handled entirely BY machinery. After
thorough washing, the vegetables are
carried 70 the processing department
BY mechanical carriers. and from the
processing to the filling mach mes
and cappers. The plant is perfectly
ventilated, and all products are
handled under the most favorable
sanitary conditions.
A rigid system Of inspection IS
maintained from the lime the vege
tables enter the plant until the label
Is affixed and the can Backed In the
case. Only extra standard vegetables
are used, and as a result Of this sys-
TEN the products Of the plant are OF
a class which has created a steady
and ever-increasing demand.
The plant now occupies three lots,
but Mr.. Schmidt has provided for fu-
ture expansion by the purchase Of six
lots adjoining. He Is confident that
the demnnd for canned Valley vege-
tables ~ill eventually necessitate in
crossing the capacity Of the plant
and Is prepared to do so when that
demand IL created.
vegetable canning has already be-
come one Of the most important IN
dusties IN the Lower Rio Grande Val
lev Mr. Schmidt said. "and I'm
confident the demand will increase In
the future. We now have orders for
a large part Of our production this
season. and are practically assured

An Old Establishment
The Schmid. was estab-
lished at FL Rein. four miles east Of
San Benito in 1915. IL was started
originally as a small community
plant, but the fame and demand for
the products spread 50 rapidly that
n larger plant soon became neces
sary. A building was erected in San
Benito several years ago and larger
plant installed. Last year the pro-
duction was l,I00, 900 cans, but this
pfn f adequate 10 supply the de-
mand. Early last summer work was
started on the addition to the old
structure. and the plant is now the
largest Of Is kind in Texas.
Approximately a carload Of canned
vegetables will be turned out BY the
plant every day. Hundreds Of acres
Of vegetables have been contracted
assuring a steady supply from the
opening Of the season in November
until June. Approximately 40e acres
of spinach is under contract. and the
acreage Of beets, tomatoes and other
vegetables which will be handled
bv the plant Is almost double that
Of the 1925-26 season.
Heavy Demand for Products
A heavy demand for the IS. & s."
brand vegetables has been created in
the Southwest and the major part Of
the output Is handled by the dealers
throughout this section. The brand
has become very popular throughout
the Valley. and large quantities are
marketed locally.
The plant originally canned only
beans and tomatoes. but additional
lines have been added each year.
Last year a few hundred cases Of
beets were canned. and provd 20 pop

this is new character in the com
munity and as he seems to have an
old-fashioned, quaint way of express
ing himself, we may quote from
him quite frequently. His right
name is "Piffleton", but we call
him "Pif" for short. This is the
time of year that man can take
a pocket full of parched corn and
go down and sit behind the barn all
day perfectly contented, until
house cleaning time is over. The
music is going to be full of "air'
soon the orchestra is getting down
to hard work with weekly practice
meetings. Much credit is due Miss
Norma Tilden for her untiring eff
forts along this line. It's good
bye woods now; the last vestige of
timber on the west side of our lit
tie hamlet is being sawed up into
lumber. This old woods and picnic
ground, the scene of so many joy
Gus occasions, is now no more And,
by the way, when the timber is all
taken out, this part of the country
is going to look mighty rough and
rugged. With no system, or incli-
nation on the part of land owners to
re-forest, it is beginning to look that
way now. The writer himself has
been somewhat lax along this line,
as he has only planted little more
than 1900 trees, mostly locust, ca
talpa and maple, besides some fruit
trees. Its just little theory Of
our own, but in the creation of the
animal kingdom, particularly the
lower animals, we are thinking that
there may have been some odds and
ends left over and from these they
concluded to make another animal
that didn't look like anything or
know ANYTHING. 1t would help all
the other animals to be perfectly sat-
isfied with their lot here on earth.
So they made duck.-Silas Thorla.

mother Mrs. Cora INLAY of near
here last Saturday evening. Rev.
Ira Cooper officiated. Mrs. Inlay
served a very elaborate supper for
the bride and groom, and invited
guests. Quite few from this place
gave the happy couple a big sere-
made, and all had very enjoyable
time. The Easter services at the
M. E. church here last Sunday,
which were given by the superin-
tendent, Dennis Betz, and Sunday
school scholars, were very well at
tended. The program was suitable
for the occasion, and Rev. Cooper
gave very inspiring talk on the
Resurrection of Christ. The SER
vices altogether were very enjoyable.
