Dandruff and Itching Scalp Yield to
ZemO Treatment.

Why should you continue to expe-
riment with salves, greasy lotions
and fancy hair dressings trying to

ENOUGH IN POPOCATEPETL'S
CRATER TO SUPPLY WORLD.
Crater Has Been Mined for Four
Hundred Years in Primitive Way.
Railway to Its Summit.

Railway to Its Summit.
The Electrical World tells of a
project to build a railway from Mex
leo City up Mount Popocatepetl, the
terminus to be at the very rim of the
crater of the sleeping volcano.
Besides the construction OF the
road it is the purpose to mine on an
extensive scale the sulphur deposits
that are stored in the crater of the
volcano. This mining will be done
by means of electric appliances in
stalled at the outer rim of the crater
and within the crater itself.
The reconnaissance for the propos-
ed line up Popocatepetl was made
several months ago by a party Of en-
gineers.
To realize what it means TO con-
meet the City of Mexico with the sum-
NIT of the Popocatepetl volcano it
need only be stated that it will ena-
Bile people to change from climate
of temperature of so to 20 degrees
to that of 10 to 90 degrees below
zero in ride of two hours. Upon
the summit and upper slopes of old
Popocatepetl is a perpetual blanket
of snow. Across it's storm-scarred
face sweeps a tempest of wind at all
times. While it's summit has been
scaled by many persons it requires
no little hardihood and endurance to
accomplish the feat. The volcano
terminal of the proposed electric rail-
way will be almost exactly two miles
higher than the City of Mexico.
Popocatepetl reaches an altitude
1874 feet above sea level. Upon
the summit will be erected a large
hotel for the accommodation Of Wis
itOrs.
1t is claimed that Popocatepetl's
sulphur deposit is the largest in the
world and that it is being constantly
added to through the congealing and
precipitation of the sulphur fumes
that the smoking mountain is con-
stantly emitting. The sulphur of
PopOCatepetl's crater was first mined
by the Spaniards under Cortez 400
years ago. In his campaign against
the Aztecs he ran short of powder,
and several of his men were sent to
the summit of the mountain to pro-
cure sulphur for the manufacture of
the necessary ammunition. Baron
Won Humboldt declared Popocatepetl
to be the greatest sulphur deposit
in the world. During the last thirty
years that the volcano was owned by
General Ochoa there was mined from
the crater about 10000 tons OF
sulphur. 1t is estimated that since
the time of Cortez the crater has
yielded more than 100000 tons
of sulphur.
The most primitive methods of ex-
tracing the mineral substance are in
operation. Poems shovel the sulphur

zeal in politics had caused him to
! become estranged from a few of his
! fellow citizens and he went about a
/ reconciliation with that manliness
and courage that has ever been
marked attributes of his character.
/ 1t has always been said that it takes
a brave and courageous man indeed
to give his hand to an enemy and
| tell him that he will henceforth try
| to be his friend. That is what Dr.
VanDyke did in order to clear the
way for his admission into the
church. To each of those whom he
approached he held out his hand and
said
Let's wipe off the slate and be
friends
One of the men whom he sought
out and with whom he had not been
on good terms for long while was
Judge John R. Wilkinson, the Ordi-
nary of Fulton county, and when he
told the judge why he had called up
on him and how he wanted to let
old differences be no longer Temem-
bered Judge Wilkinson is said to
have held out his arms and exclaim-
ed:
Come here, Arthur, and take both
of my hands. This is the best Christ
mas present have received in many
long years"
DR.. VanDyke in telling one of his
friends how he had become reconcil-
ed to all those from whom he had
been estranged remarked:
Il have found out one thing, and
that is that it is easy for a man to
make peace with his fellow man and
it is a much better thing to have
friends than enemies. A man Injuries
himself the most when he seeks to
injure others. There is nothing in
trying to even up with people whom
you imagine have done you some
wrong"
That is the story of how politics
and religion, by coming in collision
at a psychological moment in man 8
career, wrought wonderful change
in his life, and DR.. VanDyke secured
the much-coveted vote for his friend
for governor, and Mr.. Cameron won
another convert to the message of
the Master of men.

When They Mixed Religion and Politics.

! in the Indian evangelist. After the
services he was met by several mem
| bers of the church, many of whom
were his friends, and they gave him
| a very cordial and warm reception.
Monday evening found DR.. Van
| Dyke again at the church, and again
he let his new-made Joe Brown
voter know of his presence. At this
meeting he was impressed with the
remarks of the evangelist. Cordial
greetings came from all whom he
met and, as he expresses it, he went
home that night with something else
other than the capture of a vote for
Joe Brown making him feel better
for having gone to church.
He was at the church Tuesday
night, and, meeting Mr.. Cameron, re-
minded him that that was the third
and the last time he had agreed to
attend. On that evening the stirring
words of the evangelist, the beautiful
sacred music and the sanctity of the
scene so deeply moved him that when
he left the church he had determined
to go again on Wednesday night of
his own vOlition, just because he
wanted to go, and with no further
of his compact with Mr.
Cameron.
And l continued to attend the

Little Miss Lucille Burks, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. E. L. Burks of West
Brownsville, suffered a compound
fracture of the wrist while swinging

of the swings on the Fairgrounds
adjoining the school, the little girl
was suddenly pitched forward from
the swing while high in the air fall
ing with some force on one arm,

LOCAL EXPERIMENT
IN LONG STAPLE
Same Processes Employed in Produc-
ton as In Short Staple-Price
Per Bale. $103.27.

It may be of great interest to the
farmers of the Valley to know the
actual results secured from the
planting of long staple cotton in the
section adjacent to Brownsville.
The cotton was planted on the
black land soil about one mile from
the river, just west Of Nopolita, four
miles north of Brownsville.
No special pains were taken with
it. Land prepared, cotton planted,
chopped. plowed, watered, worked
and in every way given the same and
no better attention than the short
staple that was grown by the same
farmers on adjoining land.
1t was picked by the anne hands,
at the same price per hundred, and
last, was ginned on the ordinary
short staple gins, only that the gins
were run at a slower speed and with
a loose roll" pressed and baled the
same way.
The cotton, eight bales, was ship
ped to New Orleans, and sold as soon
as it arrived, when cotton was about
its lowest price, Sept. IL. Here are
the results:
Four bales, weight 1910 lbs, at
19c, $393.3O.
Four bales, weight 2,220, at 10 IL
cents, ~$432.90.
Being a total or $4,000, or an
average per bale Of s1O3.27.
Freight, COMPRISING. sampling
and commissions reduced the net re-
turns about S. per bale. This made
the cotton average $9S per bale. No
allowance is made here for the value
of the seed. The short staple cot
ton growing in same field by same
farmer did not produce any better
yield; nor was the cost of any part
of the crop any less, and it sold for
an average of SIS per bale (same
date.)
Here is an actual difference OF
$40 per bale, between the two
staples; and ii 10 a fact that due to
the excessive rains in June, the
staple did not mature normally; and
that with a favorable season, the
long staple would have brought from
8 to s cents more per pound than 1t
did this year.
Does long staple pay? Can it be
successfully grown in the Browns
vile district? These figures answer.
And one other thing: The argu-
ment and boasts of other sections oil
the Valley that they had much bet
ter soil and could produce a much
better staple than could be grown in
the Brownsville section has been eff
fectually exploded. KNOCKERS not
referred to either.) The staple
above brought the highest price and
the report from the graders stated
that this was the BEST STAPLE that
was shipped to them out of the Val
ley.
The cotton was shipped through
the Rio Grande and Coast Associa-
ton of Harrington.
| give the farmers the benefit OF
the above results so that they can
come to their own conclusions.
Part of the cotton was raised BY
r. B. Mayfield and the rest by Biggs
Bros, On my farm north of Browns
vile. | am firmly of the opinion
that the long staple cotton is the cot
ton for the Valley.
