SOURCE OF RUBBER SUPPLY
New One Recently Has Been Found
In Mexico In the PaIo
Amarillo Tree.

City of Mexico.-Another practical
and very extensive source of crude
rubber supply was recently discovered
in the vicinity Of Guanajuato. It Is
the palo amarillo tree. which grows
wild in broad scope OF territory bor-
bering the Pacific coast and extending
towards the interior as far as Guiana
juato. The commercial possibilities of
this tree as a producer Of rubber have
been thoroughly tested by the Mex
lean government and by representa-
tives of large American interests that
are investing considerable capital in
the new industry.
The palo amarillo tree bears no re.
semblance to the guayule shrub from
which large quantities Of rubber are
being manufactured in Northern Mex
leo and Southwestern Texas. This
tree is also of different species from
the rubber tree of the tropical regions
of Mexico and other countries. It at.
tains height of about 80 feet. It's
trunk gets to be of a thickness of one
to two feet. The tree Is Of rapid
growth, reaching commercial size in
five years
The news that the palo amarillo
tree is being utilized for the manuface
ture of crude rubber has caused a
number of independent rubber con

CALLS FOR COMMON SENSE
Some Simple Rules for Girl Who Finds
u Necessary to Diet-5ewsrs
of Excess.

Here are a few rules that the girl
who Is determined to diet does well to
observe There is too much trifing
with our digestion these days, and
not the least harm is done by the no
ton for undertaking.
Never diet on the advice OF a
friend. Her plan may have done won
ders for her and will put you to bed
or make you sorry-looking wreck.
Don't diet to excess at any time.
Girls. make sure your doctor knows
dietetics. Many physicians, good in
other things, have little knowledge Of
the effect of food upon the system.
II you must diet from cause. as
from diabetes or kidney trouble, do 1t
reiigiously; almost better not begin
than to do it systematically, letting up
whenever food tempts you.
If you only diet for the sake of fig
ure or complexion, count the cost be-
fore starting. Cutting out the foods
Of ordinary family meals is hard. Ask
yourself: Which means most to me,
the loss Of few pounds or being a
nuisance at mealtime?"
Don't keep on dieting IL you feel
that It disagrees with you. This holds
good even when your food list is care
fully censored by a physician. The
best of them will make mistakes.
Find out in time what is wrong.
Don't diet to excess at any time.
Women often go to the point of weak
ening the entire system by injudi-
ciously following doctors advice.
Common sense and moderation are
good things to hold to in the matter
Of food.
