The association starts with a mem-
1912—Mr.Chas. B. Kaliev. DearSir:
Receiving some «opi"a of your valu-
able paper, The Sun, a few days ago,
am vtry much surprised at the stride
Alvin has taken In the last twelve
years, and The Sun has kept pace
with '.he city. My seven years resi-
dence near Alvin found The Suu in
.our house, and jre never regretted
the Investment.
We found the climate fine and we
enjoyed good health. Hoping i/>
meet our friends and f.pend more of
our d»ys in Alvin, is our wish.
Wishing success to The Alvin Sun,
and the Alvin country, I am
Your truly,
S. Lockbaum
Mr. Lockbaum was a citizen of tl o
Alvin country for & number of years
and his many friend*, among the old-
er se: tiers will be glad to hear from
him md to know that he is still in
the land of the living and contem-
plates to again vi*nt this • ■etion.
Special to the Sun.
Houston, Texas, F<b., 15—The one
big feature or the Houston produce
market was the incoming straw-
berries. If the warrr. weather con-
tinues the supply will be greatly in-
creased and will lower the prevail-
ing price of $18 per crate. One de-
partment of the market which needs
redeeming is the chicken market.
Receipts are nothing to brag about,
hence $5 is paid far hens. Eggs
however, declined from 29 to 27c.
.Turceyeare not m;ch in demand
now with prices unchanged at 12}*
to Be.
Florida and California fruits are
much iu evidence, while oranges
and grapefruit from the former zone
are higher.
