Cameron County ia the extreme
southern county of Texas Ifc is
separated from Mexico by the Rio
Grande on the south and has about
100 miles of gulf coast a3 its east-
ern bouudary It was organized in
1848 aniPcontains 3308 square
miles Farming and stock raising
are the principal industries of the
people the location climate and soil
being admirably adapted for both
The greater portion of the soil is a
rich loam and produces an exceed-
ingly heavy yield o f both cotton
and corn the chief farm products
Two and sometimes three crops of
com averaging from fiftv to seven-
ty bushels per acre are raised year-
ly while cotton will easily ield
from one to two bales per acres
Grasses grow all the year and stock
find pasturae without being fed or
sheltered during the winter But
tlie soil and climate of the Lower
Rio Grande Val ey are by nature
best adapted for the production of
vegetables and fruits Vegetables
af all kinds grow all the year
oround and northern people are as-
tonished to find tomatoes lettuce
spinach English peas etc served
fresh from the gardens in midwin-
ter This is undoubtedly the par-
adise of track gardeners and so
soon a rail transportation is ob-
tained Cameron county vegetables
by the car load vtill be shipped to
northern market during winter and
early spring and will obtain the
highest prices as there will be no
competition This is due to our
exceedingly mild climate Fre-
quently the entire winter parses
without a single frost and there is
rarely evr any cold weather before
Christina Fruit culture has not
been attempted in this county on a
laige seal but there is one large
banana plantation on which tins
delicious fruit yields mo3t ribund
antly and in the greatest perfection
Grapes are also raised extensively
growing in almost every yard They
ripen from two to four weeks ear
lier than in any other section
Many planters here make all of
their own table wines Oranges
and lemons also grow in profusion
and this section could eaily lie
nmdo to rival Florida in the pro-
duction of oranges Sugar cane is
also one of the nlost iniportant pro
pucis of this valley The Rio
Grande plantation of Mr Geo Brii
liyand the Rahh Starclc plantation
produce grant quantities of cane
which is all manufactured on the
Rio Grande plantation This cane
makes sugar which is produced by
experts to be even superior to the
lpst Louisiana product Havana
tobacco has also proven a suecess
here Col 1 G Tucker having
made some nmst successful experi-
ments with it his samples weie
elasspd by New York buyers as
equal to the best lJavana
The county is watered by the Rio
Grande with its ample flow along
tin southern boundary and mini
nrmis small streams ca led kirroya
and Ycsacas
The population of Cameron coun-
ty according to the census of 1890
is 1342i Brownsville I he county

7000 Point Isabel the seaport of
the county has about 400 inhabi-
