and discussed matters of much
interest to the welfare of the

Among the subjects discussed
was for more factories for Texas

ing that the 31st legislature sub-
mit to the people of the state an
dmendmeot to the constitution
allowing municipalities to remit
a torm of-per.r?, to
manufacturing concerns under
tax characters locating in their
limits. If this law can be sector-
ed, it is believed it will be a
winning inducement to outside
capital to come into the state and
invest.
ProbaWy the most important
matter dicussed by this body
was that of aiding the farmers
in securing full value for their
products. The plan was** adopt-
ed to furnish the farmers mark-
et quotations, end it developed
to the extent of adopting tho
following resolutions.—Resolved
.That every secretary in Texas
he requested to secure informa-
tion and post himself us to m*ydi-
et conditions-in all farm pro-
ducts and that this information
be furnished freely to the far-
mers in gbeir ^spcctive com-
munities to the "end that the
farmers may realize, the full
value, of . the . products of their
labor.
That th&nreas ,ia,geperah and

resolution and give it publicity
