COTTON BELT'S NEW BRIDGE COM- 

 PLETES STEEL HIGHWAY TO 

 THE SOUTHWEST. 



OPEN TO TRAFFIC APRIL 18th. 



All Cotton Belt Route trains between 

 St. Louis end the southwest now use the 

 new steel bridge across the Mississippi 

 river at Thebes, 111., doing away with the 

 ferry transfer and shortening schedules 

 an hour. 



The Cotton Belt has the line of lowest 

 grades, fewest curves and one of the 

 smoothest tracks between St. Louis and 

 the southwest. 



The new bridge adds to the facilities in 

 reaching the country of mild climate and 

 cheap homes — Arkansas, Louisiana and 

 Texas. Write for literature descriptive 

 of this wonderfully fertile country. Cheap 

 homeseeker's rates first and third Tues- 

 days of each month. 



June 20th, we will run a special train 

 excursion of fruit and truck growers, and 

 others interested to the famous East Texas 

 fruit country. This will afford an oppor- 

 tunity of seeing the gathering and mar- 

 keting of the big fruit crop. Write for 

 itinerary and cost of trip. 



Cotton Belt trains leave St. Louis daily, 

 9:20 a. m. and 9:32 p. m.
