Mr.. Parker went through most
of the other vegetable producing
states, and made a careful study
q conditions in Florida, in order
to check the possible effect on the
Lower Rio Grande Valley.
il went to Orlando, Jacksonville,
Tampa. Miami. and most other
points in Florida. and drove out
into the agricultural areas from
each city" MIR. Parker said.
We found the crops practically
wiped out py the last freeze. The
tomatoes had been replanted q
second time. and were UP about a
foot when the last freeze hit. II
cut them 70 the ground. and prac-
tically wiped out beans also. The
potato crop was cut down con-
siderably.
Fruit not DAMAGED
The citrus fruit in Florida was
not damaged by the cold"
Mr.. Parker said the citrus IN
dustry has reached its peak in
Florida, and that for the past two
years no new orchards have been
planted. The fruit fly has done
considerable damage to the market
ing Of the fruit and to financial
conditions in general. although ID
Is not hurting so much now. he
said.
Mr.. Parker went through the
agricultural sections OF other
Southern states. and said that the
Valley will have the market prac-
tically 70 itself for spring vege-
tables, particularly beans. tomatoes.
and potatoes.
Unless shipments out OF Mexico
interfere. these crops should bring
more money than they have ever
brought the Valley in the past, he
declared.

Valley more than SOS, 900 900.
Tourist Crop Different
That amount Of money would
put the Valley in the best financial
condition IL has ever known. and
will make possible a rapid develop
ment throughout the section"
In discussing the tourist traffic,
Mr.. Parker said Florida gets a
different group Of tourists than
the Valley, and will continue 70 do
SO.
The Valley IS drawing tourists
from the Middle West, Florida from
the Eastern seaboard.
We could not have taken care
