VALLEY LAUDED
In CHI STORY

The Chicago Fruit and vegetable
Reporter, a ably publication printed
in Chicago. carries a lengthy story
on the Lower Rio Grnde Valley In
the Sept. Is issue.
The article, entitled "A Quick
Short Story of the Valley OF the
Rio Grande" by William Clendenin,
has created unusual interest In Chi
cago. according to j. r. Coverley,
Chicago, who mailed q marked copy
OF this publication to The Herald.
Seems to be doing o TO stir
things I'D in Chicago than all the
land companies combined" MI
Coverley said.
The article starts off with a quo
tation from Robert Burns, and con-
tlnues that the Valley has "a magic
combination Of glories Of California
and Florida blended into one, In
many respects surprising both" In
describing the Valley, the author
says, This Wonder Valley Of the
Rio Grande runs about seventy-five
miles along the river Of that name,
north from Brownsville on the Am
erican side and about twenty wide
as far back as irrigation works ex-
tend. That's all there is to 1t. now
or ever, probably. A regional gem
Of the American sub-tropics."
Twenty years ago this same VAL
lev was a desert, a supposedly ir-
redeemable, irreclaimable waste.
Then somebody poured some river
water on a patch Of parched soil,
planted something. and produced
regular Jack and the Beanstalk re-
suits"
The article IS a glowing tribute to
the Valley throughout, and occu-
pies approximately two columns In
