'lletwecu UVO and 3lK) carload of early
vegetables are being shipped daily from
the lower Rio Grande Valley according to
Floyde Ikard manager of the Houston
branch of the Federal Heserve bank of
Dalla. who returned Wednesday from a
trip through the Valley.
Mr. Ikard believe that agricultural
condition in the Valley ere much belter
than in many other section of the coun-
try aril that due to the opportunity for
diversification of cmps farmers in the
Valley are In position to tide ovor the
market slump that has had uch a de-
pressing influence on certain section.
The fact that the Valley soil and climate
ia able t grow more than one crop per
season is another big asset for those
who arc attempting to develop the sgri-
m It ura I industry in South Texas.
""The Kio tiramle Valley is destined to
become one of the best eitru fruit grow-
ing sections of the country." said Mr.
Ikard. 'The industry is still in it in-
fancy but 1 have never tasted such de-
licious ' grapefruit ami oranges as one
can pick from the trees in South Texas
orchards.
"I visited one orchard covering only
one m-rc of land and the owner told me
be has marketed more than 400 crates of
oranges fronMhis small number of trees.
They are growing lime fruit in the Valley
that are almost as big as the ordmsy
siied lemon."
Mr. Ikard xiy the fruit growers are
beginning to (ji-e the advantage of mar-
keting only high class fruit. They are
attempting to perfect a standard for Val-
ley fruit and before shipments are made
to the outside markets the fruit is care-
fully graded and selected a system
adopted by the Califo rnia fruit growers
years ago.
