Al'HTlN, Tex,, March » -Aocordln* to
H. C. tlranbury, local reprosentatlve of
the Koutlieru States Cotton Corporation,
of Macon, (la., and the Cotton States
Investment Company of Dallas, thoso
corporations have plans under way
whereby the farmem of Travis Cftunty
arc to receive 16 cents u pound for all
cotton raised Instead of lfl cents und II
cents us heretofore, tt 1» also proposed
to miike Austin the greatest cotton .en-
ter lu Ihls section of the Btutc. The
plans cull for the erection lit tills city
.of large warehouses In which to store
the cotton until the farmer Is paid full
value for It.
If the weather Ih favorable Travis
County farmers will begin planting cot-
ton next week, Truvls County rained
tu,000 bales of cotton last year, hut only
• bout one-half of It wus brought to the
Austin market, This year it Is predict, il
that the production In the county will
nt Icust be equal to that of lust year, und
thut all of It will he brought to Auslln.
Mr. ilrunbury Is already contracting
with the Travis County cotton fanners
for all the cotton tliey ran Valau, agree-
ing to pay 16 cents a pound for It. The
Southern States Cotton Corporation has
Investigated the cost of falsing cotton
In various localities and averaged the
figures ao that It Is found that it costs
about 11 cents u pound to raise cotton.
Heretofore, It Is pointed out, there has
been little Inducement to the farmers
to ralne cotton, hut with the contract
with the corporation, which ajtees to
pay 16 cents a pound on middling basis
for all cotton raised, It is predicted that
Ihe farmers of Travis County will raise
more cotton than ever before.

WACO, Tex., March 9. — Congressman
Robert K Henry will arrive here from
Washington Wednesday. March 12. and
•will be given a reception which will
eclipse anything of the kind In the his-
tory of this city If th« plana of hla
friends and admirers are carried out.
He will be met at tlie train hy ion auto-
mobiles and a band nnd escorted to his
home, where he la expected to make a
speech. At night In the floral room of
the Cotton Palace a banquet will be
given In his honor, and he will deliver
an addreaa. A number of other ad-
dresses *111 be delivered at the hamiuet
board, and a grand Jollification is antici-
pated.
The baimuet will be given under the
auaplces of the Waco Ad Club us an ac-
knowledgement of tbe splendid service
of Congreasman Henry for the Improve-
ment of the Hraios River. The featlvl-
ties will also take the form ot a celebra-
tion of the great Democratic victory of
last November consummated bv the In-
auguration of Prealdent Wilson, for whom
Mr Henry did yeoman acrvlce.
Wacp has on two or three occasions
in the pan demonstrated her fealty to
and appreciation of H favorite eon by
such public manlfeatatlona. When Illch-
ard Coke defeated E. J. Davla for Gov-
ernor In IMS, Waco, then a mere village,
gave her victorious cltlien a reception
In which practically every cltlien took
pari, together with many visitors. Again,
when fiul Ross was elected Governor, the
old town poured out Ita patriotic ap-
proval In ahouta of love and loyalty to
the "Uttlr Cavalryman."
On ;ther less notable occaalons the city
has demonstrated Its appreciation of the
public service of It* cltlsfna. and In the
proponed Henry banquet It Is designed
to eclipse all of these. It promlsca to be
a most glorious event.
