HAVE DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG
Don't stay gray! Nobody can tell

hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur

Grandmother kept her hair beau
tlfully darkened, glossy and attrac-
tive with brew of Sage Tea and
Sulphur. Whenever her hair took
on that dull, faded or streaked APP
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect. BY
asking at any drug store for
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get large bottle
of this old-time recipe, improved
by the addition of other ingredi-
ents. all ready to use. at very little
cost. This simple mixture can be
depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown drug
gist says everybody uses Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound now
because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied-it's so easy TO use.

a counter combination Of the
producers against the packers was
suggested by Governor NJ, c. Me-
chem as the only means of getting
their fair share of the proceeds Of
the cattle industry in an address
delivered yesterday morning to the
delegates OF the New Mexico Cattle
and Horse Growers association at
their seventh annual convention.
A great deal of blame for the
cattle growers present situation is
placed upon the packer" Governor
Mechcm stated. But / have never
been in favor of laws hedging in
that end of the industry. The
packers are natural evolution Of
the business and the only way
stockmen can secure their own is
through counter organization,
which will, to my notion, prove the
solution to the problem and get
the grower what is justly coming to
him out of the retail price of his
product
Governor Mechem expressed the
belief that in spite of any legisla-
ton curtailing the packers, they
will continue in existence along
present lines. Legislation only
curtails and impedes their prog
ress," he declared. And seems to
ultimately point to- government
operation which 10 one should
favor for very few believe in the
success of government ownership
Concluding, Governor Mechem
said: THE only WaV to SuccesSfullv
combat the packers is by a counter
combination through the close CO.

ANACONDA mime
To CLOSE DOWN
RYAN ANNOUNCES
One of the Largest Producers
of Copper Ore Will SuS-
pend Operations, Due to-
Lack of Demand
tBy The Associated Prcsso

New York, March 29.-Suspen~
sion of mining operations by the
Anaconda Copper Mining company,
one of the largest producers of
copper ore IN the United States,
was announced here today by John
d. Ryan, chairman of the COM
pany's board Of directors, after
four other concerns earlier in the
day had made known their intcn-
lions Of shutting down.
Lack of domestic and export
demand was given as the reason
for stoppage of activities by Ana
conda and the other concerns,
which were the Utah Copper, Ray
Consolidated, Chino Copper and
Nevada Copper companies.
Officials and others interested
in the five companies expressed
the opinion that the shut downs
would be only temporary. Normal
production, they said, would be
resumed as general industrial con-
ditions became better.
Directors Statement.
Mr.. Ryan made public state
mont by the directors to stock
holders of the Anaconda company
which said the suspension was or
dered with regret and only after
deliberate consideration compelled
conclusion that under existing con-
ditions no other course was ad-
visable.'
THE mines and plants of your
company" the statement contin-
ucd, are in good condition and
can and will be so kept that a
normal production at reasonable
cost can he speedily made when
ever there is sufficient improve
mcnt in the business situation to
warrant an output on an economic
basis"

COMM ERCIAL LIFE IN
MEXICO IS REVIVING

Laredo, Tex, March 29.-Fig-
ures showing that the business and
commercial life in Mexico is be
ing reiuvenated rapidly through
Texas gateways have been COM
piled by the United States customs
department and the immigration
service, according to Fred w. NAL
ley, secretary of the Laredo cham
Der of commerce.
The travelling public, both Amer
lean and aliens, recognizes Laredo
as the natural gateway between
the United States and Mexico, ac-
cording to table of figures given
out by Mr.. Malley. Immigration
service records show that for the
six months from August I, 1920,
to February /, 1921, a total of
6S,9S7 persons passed through La
redo. OF these 56,2S0 were aliens
and 7725 were Americans, all go
ing to the southern republic.
During the seven months from
July !, 1920, to February 1, 1921,
the exports of domestic merchant
disc to Mexico from the Texas Gus
toms district No. 20, including La
redo, Eagle Pass, Brownsville, Del
Rio, Hidalgo and Rio Grande City
to $43,8G4,920. OF this
each city contributed as
follows Laredo, 1913. 902,S75: Eagle
Pass, $7,832,S31; Brownsville, ST.
261,163; Del Rio, S146,405; Hidal-
go, $253.SG6; Rio Grande City,
$2S77S0. This shows that the port
of Laredo passes 1854 per cent of
the entire movement of domestic
merchandise from the United
States into Mexico through the
twenty-third district, Mr.. Malley
said.

I'VE should advocate the inau-

rather a stupendous problem and
can only be met by a revision of
the federal banking system that
has proved itself one of the sound

President Mitchell suggested that
the progressive interest and the
rediscount rates should be clmi-
mated and that long time loans
should be some way put into force.
we should be able to borrow
money with which to buy hogs,
sheep and cattle and be permitted
to keep the money at a reasonable
rate of interest until that stock is

Concluding, President Mitchell
said I'm this system of revolving
credits that | have most crudcly
outlined, as a first essential must
be the elimination of every I'M
necessary hazard by the reserve
banks. In every phase of the OPP

practical lines, it requires no great
stretch of imagination to realize

SANTA MONICA AND
OCEAN PARK BEACHES
CALL TO NEW MEXICO

Santa Monica, Calf, March 20
Again a far-flung invitation has
been extended to visitors TO south
ern California to enjoy the count
less diversions and attractions of
Santa Monica and Ocean Park.
Preparations have been made by
the Chamber of Commerce with a
view OF entertaining a greater num-
Der of visitors than any past sum
mer, while the big promoters of
amusement enterprises and man.
ayers of hotels and apartment
houses have been busily engaged
in preparing for the expected in
fluX of travel from all parts of the
interior.
Southern California - Straight
Ahead and Southern California
the Logical Summer Destination
for Health, Rest and Recreation"
is being exploited by commerce
chambers and hotel men of south
ern California and an extensive
advertising campaign has been in
augurated by the local Chamber OF
Commerce in newspaper space in
all important points of the interior
and the distribution of illustrated
folders in telling the world" of
the charms and attractions that
await the summer visitor at the
favorite resorts of Santa Monica
and ocean Park.
The fact that Santa Monica and
ocean Park are the closest seaside
resorts to Los Angeles-being sit
uated only fourteen miles from the
metropolls-gives them a decided
advantage over other California
amusement centers. They are easily
accessible to all the sights and at
fractions of the southland and the
trip can be made to and from Los
Angeles by trolley or motor in
thirty minutes or less. /
Gone are the times when the
visitor has nothing to occupy his
attention but to recline on the
beach or merely enjoy splash in
the surf. Now the visitor can find
any number of things to do and to
see and enjoy in addition to bath
ing There are scores of novel
concessions in the two "joy zones'
at Santa Monica and Ocean Park.
There are mammoth salt water
plungeS, many dance pdVlliOnS,
miles of cement promenade bril-
liantly lighted at night and trav-
ersey by electric tram cars for the
convenience of those who do not
care to walk; deep sea and surf
fishing, golfing on sporty 1S-hole
links, motoring over the finest
boulevards in the state and noun
tain hiking near by. Bands give
free concerts throughout the sum
mer.
Ocean Park is the home of the
Merritt Jones hotel, which ranks
with the finest seaside hotels of
southern California. No resorts
along the Pacific coast afford bet

spending the summer by the sea
