TEXAS LEADS THE PRO-

Texas led the country in farm

products animal and Iowa was

completed by the department of
agriculture show. These are the
totals: Texas, $1,001,500,000; Ion
$956,000,000.
The south', crop production in
1922 reached a total value of sa,-
506,000 or •> per cent of the total
for the United States This value
was almost as great as the value
placed on the crops produced in
the northern half of the Mlasis-
atppi valley, embraced in two east
and west subdiytalons of the north
central states, which was $3,565,-
000,000.
Texas in crop production I. a
biion dollar state and the - sur-
face of Texas has not been
scratched. If put to the test Texas
could produce 11,000,000 bales of
cotton or more than half of the
entire annual yield of the world.
There are million of virgin acres
that have never felt the touch of
plow or hoe: there are millions
of acres, semi-aria, that could be
eazt§ reclaimed by the conserva-
tion of flood waters; there are
million of acres of swamp land,
khat could be reclaimed by drain-
age work and levee building.
Texas has a population of 6,000,-
000 souls. Texas could support a
population of 20,000,000 route and
not half try.
Texas is a billion dollar state
today. It should be a two billion
state in 1930.
