The industry is one we cannot af-
ford to abuse, neglect or impede. It is our mainstay and deserves
the absolute support and encouragement of ever)' loyal citizen.
Industries like the rice mills are not commonly "picked up;”
enterprises like our canal systems are not found every day, and
45,000 acres of money-giving, profit-sharing rice fields do not
"just happen.” They all represent careful planning, business-
like administrations, careful fostering and the ceaseless vigil of
men, means and money. They are necessary to the success, prog-
ress and prosperity of every business in Bay City.
The rice farmer produces that our business can prosper; the
canal system makes it possible for him to produce; the mills util-
ize the raw product produced by the farmer and the canal system
and sends it abroad, a finished, manufactured product.
The whole of it is entitled to all the encouragement a success-
ful and prosperous people can give it.
Think it over!

on the new cotton mill located at New Braunfels. That enter-

tion of the State-
every man who jou;
For many years, in Bay City, we have had in operation two
splendid and succt-.-sful manufacturing industries just as im-
portant to the welfare, prosperity and progress of this city and
surrounding territory as the New Braunfels cotton mill is to New
Braunfels and that section.
These industrit- are our rice mills. Their product is the raw
rice raised in the fields of Matagorda County, irrigated by our
own canal systems, farmed by our own people, warehoused and
handled by local business men and labor and shipped to distant
markets a finish'd product.
These mills an- in all purposes and intent factories. They
take our own raw matt ria) and process it into a manufactured
article. They represent what all progressive towns are working |
constantly for -factories. Their existence here and operation
makes it possible to successfully and profitably grow rice, and!
rice, in turn. mak(s it possible for the business life of this city to,
succeed and grow la tter.
Shouldn't we. therefore, take pride in our manufacturing in-,
dustries and jealously and zealously guard their interests? Look-;
ing back, let us count the millions they have brought here, thej
hundreds of thousands they have paid out for labor, the business,
houses and homes they have built in Bay City and the people they
have made prosperous and contented.
People, all over Texas, are seeking factories and buying stock
in them with their millions. Here we have two factories in oper-
ation, important factors in the industrial life of our town, taking
front the fields at their door a raw product. Rice to our fac-.
tories occupies exactly the same position as cotton does to cotton [
factories. Their relativity is identical and it is our business to
see that they continue to thrive and prosper.
Matagorda County will prodtn < more rice this year, perhaps,
than any county in the United States. At this writing the price
is very satisfactory and the future is very bright. In round
numbers, the crop might safely be placed at $2,000,000, and it
comes at a most - pportune time. The major portion of this sig- Z
