It is reported on good authority
that trains will be running regular
ly between Bay City and Browns
ville, by the 15th of December.
This is good news for- this section
and The Herald hopes it is true.
J. A. Tillman intends to move his
grocery stock to' the Jagou build
ing, formerly occupic 1 by the
American restaurant, next week.
The building is being repaired,
shelving put in and will be a very
desirable location.
The many friends of J- E.
Agee, prescripttonist at Willman's
pharmacy, will be sorry to learn
that his young son is very sick at
Floresville, and hope to soon learn
of the child's recovery. Mr. Agee
has been in Floresville several
days, called there by the little
one's illness.
The Herald acknowledges a
pleasant call yesterday afternoon
from Miguel C. Salinas, late of
Monterey, but now located at Mata
moros. Mr. Salinas is the authoriz
ed representative of the Monterey
News in Brownsville and Matamo
ros, comes highly recommended
and is a most pleasant gentleman.
The Herald is pleased to welcome
Sr. Salinas to this section.
To those who prefer ordering
jewelry from catalog houses, we
will furnish you with any article
laid down in same, deliver it to
you at home for 10 per cent less
money than you will have to pay
the catalog house. Why order you
Christmas presents and send your
money away, when you can save
money by having your home jeweler
get the same goods for you and
save you money? Bring the cash
with you, the same as you must
do the catalog house and we will
save you ten per cent or forfeit to
you 100 cash. 11-24-12-2
; W. H. Young;, noW of Kxags
ville, but late of Iowa, was a visi
tor to Brownsville yesterday and
day before; The gentleman came
down especially to investigate con"
citions in this section. He1 met
fits old friend P. IE Vasey, and
civil engineer, E. B. Gore, and
spent the day Wednesday in visit
ing tne pumping station, Buena
Vista truck; farm, the proposed
drainage district and other places
where information as to the possi
bilities of the country might be
gained. Mr. Young was much
pleased with his investigations and
left yesterday for; points up the
river seeking, further information
He is an enthusiastic advocate of
drainage, and is not in the least
frightened by the possibility of salt
or other alkaline matter in the soil
kere, saying ..they were difficulties
easily overcome. Mr. Young is a
civil engineer and needs no special
instruction with regard to the
formation of the country and the
work necessary to be done to put
the land in shape for cultivation.
He has a fine farm at Kingsville,
and was among the first to settle
in that growing little city.
The trend of prospectors is still
this way. Among the latest to ar
rive is G. W. Hawkes, of Cocoanut
Grove, in the southernmost part
of Florida, who came in yesterday
afternoon. Mr- Hawkes was a cal
ler at The Herald office this
morning and tells us he will report
the result of his investigation to a
large number of truck growers on
his return to Florida, and upon his j
report will depend whether or not
this section will receive favorable
consideration. The gentleman says
the principal crops in the portion
of the state from whence he comes,
are winter tomatoes and eggplants,
the shipments beginning about
Christinas, when other sections are
without these vegetables. The land
is principally sand, very poor and
requires fertilizing for evei crop,
the cost of this being about $45 per
acre annually. Even at this price
considerable money may be realiz
ed, the yield being in the neigh
borhood of $500 per acre. With
the rich lands here, no ' fertilizers
are necessai . and tne same, metn
ods used here as are applied in the
section from which Mr. Hawkes
comes, would result in greatly in
creased returns. The gentleman in
forms us frost comes sometimes even
in the southern part of Florida,
and its damage is counteracted by
the use of houses where additional
plants are kept, and put out when
frost injures the field crops. Tins
is a method which the truck peo
ple of this section would do well to
follow, as by its use the dangers of
frost or cold would lose most of its
terrors. Mr. Hawkes will spend to
day looking over this vicinity, and
The Herald hopes his report will
be favorable, and result in increas
ed immigation to this section. The
gentleman visited Matamoros, also,
and found thnt city very interest
ing. PERSONALIS.
