Mustache Versus Music.


Anton Rubnstein had this to say in
reference to women artists:
II think ladies ought never to study
music as an art. AT least they ought
not to take up the time of teachers who
are able to teach and make true artists.
AMI will tell you why. There is no
question but there are twenty musical
ladies' to ore musical man, and my own
experience is that they learn more
quickly, have more poetry and, in fact,
are more Giiigent pupils than men. But
what is the invariable result? When
young lady has become a perfect art
list some handsome mustache comes
along, and she chooses the handsome
mustache in preference to art"

COTTON SEED OIL MILLS.

The Cotton Seed Oil Mill at Bryan,
Texas, was burned last spring and has
not been rebuilt. Here is what
newspapers in Caldwell and Gonzales
have to say about the seed situation
at Bryan:
The Bryan papers are raising CON
siderable howl because of the fact
that cotton seed is not bringing as
much as it should in Bryan. The
price is only nine dollars per ton,
which is less than any surrounding
point is paying, and this is said to be
due to an agreement between the buy
ers, and to the fact that the local
mill was destroyed by fire and has not
been rebuilt. Thus we see what an
oil mill is worth to the people Of the
county, for if the Caldwell nil were
out of business we would ioubtless
get from one to two dollars less per
ton for our seed, and that would be a
loss that would affect everybody, and
in the course of the season would
amount to a large sum. The moral
Of this is that the local mill is help
ing you to get the best price for

the local community. 1t is capital
brought from other sections to do bu-
ness at home.
Besides this a great deal of the
product of the mill is kept at home
to feed stock At z profs,.
1t is surely a business proposition
that ought to appeal to any thinking
man.
Gonzales has had an oil mill for sew
eral years, and for the past few years
has had doubtful life, and but for
the determination of the stockhoId-
ers and directors would have been
frozen out, as many mills have been.
Not since the first year have those
who have money invested in it re-
ceiyed one nickle from the investment,
Yet it could be made paying if it

side mills.

Bishop and Mrs, Galloway, of Jack
son, stopped and dined here with
Rev. X. A. Tucker, Saturday, enroute
to Black Hawk, where he dedicated
the new Methodist Church the next
day, Sunday. Black Hawk was his
second station after he received Il
cense to preach, and it was there he
began to attract attention as a theo-
logan and orator. Since that time,
nearly fifty years ago, he has not on
ly risen to the highest position in the
church but has become a national
character Of influence for good. But
for the rain Saturday night, Black
Hawk would have been too small for
his congregation, and yet how few in
Sundays assembly heard him when
stationed there in his young manhood.
AS he rose in that new house of wor-
ship packed with humanity and
scanned the people for old members
in the ffties in vain feeling of sad
ness must have mingled with the
knowledge Of his brilliant and success
fnl career since ministering there in
the long ago. The Bishop was met
here by Rev. I. W. Lewis, who ac-
companied him and Mrs. Galloway to
Black Hawk.

Perhaps the Bryan mill has not
been rebuilt and will not be rebuilt
on account Of experiences of it and
other local mills, Capital will not be
invested where it is not encouraged or
where is not profitable. The Inquirer
can unhesitatingly say that the Con
zales oil mill would not be rebuilt if
was burned out, and the same eondi-
ton would prevail here as at Bryan,
and it would be entirely due to the
fact that the mill does not receive
the seed and encouragement it is en-
titled. Gonzales Inquirer.

your seed, and every farmer in the
county should see to it that his seed
is crushed by the Caldwell oil mill.
An enterprise that helps you certain
ly deserves your patronage, and all
things being equal, you are under OBJ
legations to sell seed TO the Caldwell
mill. Doubtless some Of the farmers
in Brazos county and around Bryan
who are making the l0udest howl
about the combination against them
are the very men who never sold their
seed to the Bryan mill when there was
another buyer in the field. This is
only another case Of it being profit
able to patronize home industry, which
is a safe rule to follow in every line.
Caldwell News-Chronicle.
Yet people wonder why men do not
put their money in home enterprises.
The selling of seed to outside mills
is not the smallest loss to a commu-
nifty Il seed is selling at nine dol
lars per ton, the difference between
the raw state and the manufactured
product is lost to the community.
which is considerably more than the
first price Of the seed. 1t amounts
