testimony was grossly misleading

raised by tie republican organization
in Texas during the last seven years,
was raised BY voluntary contribution

In the Edcouch neighborhood one

They go in for that sort Of thing

markets for them in the northeast,

change OF location. installation Of
new equipment, making OF butter
and ice cream and charging OF the
Brownsville branch are features of
the improvements Of this company.
Officers Of the organization are:
H. G. Lawton Of San Benito, vice
president and general manager; w.
II. Hughes Of Weslaco, secretary and
assistant manager.
The material is now being placed
on the ground for the construction
Of the new building which will have
a floor space Of 50x15O feet. Ex-
pectations are to have the plant with
complete new machinery completed
within six weeks, according to Mr..
Hughes.
The new building will be located
in Mercedes, one block off the new
highway that leads north out Of the
city. The reason given for keeping
the location in this community is
that the supply here exceeds that OF
any other portion Of the Valley.
The company has trucks which
gather produce from the entire
length and breath Of the Valley. Mr..
Hughes states that the demand for
the finished product far exceeds the
supply of the raw material. The
present plan will be kept in opera
ton until the completion Of the new
one. after which most Of the equip
ment will be moved to the Browns
vile location. In addition to pas
teurized milk the making of butter
and ice cream will be two of the
added features of the new plant.
