The Best Time To Go Ask George Billingsly, hos pitable, goateed manager of Taxco’s Hotel de la Borda, when the best time is to vis it Mexico and he’ll' tell you “Anytime is good time, but I think I’d pick November if I had to make a choice.” In. the fall the rains have ceased and the vegetation is lush. All of Mexico becomes a tropical wonderland of gre en valleys presided over by snow-capped mountains. The hotel here is as inter esting, historically, as it is comfortable withimodem con veniences and excellent food. It is located on top of a hill from which more silver has been taken than from apy other mine in the world. It overlooks the city of Taxco, 100 miles southwest of Mexi co City Jose de la Borda was a Fr enchman who discovered the rich silver lode more than 200 years ago. It has been mined continually since then Nobody knows how many million pesos worth of sil ver_has been taken from the mine. State-Wide Livestock Market 'Posting' is Launched by Ag Dept. On July 1, members of the XL S. Department of Agri culture responsible for enforcing the Packers and Stock yards Act, began a state-wide “posting” program in the Stkte of Pennsylvania, Posting of a livestock mar ket by the USDA gives no tice to the owners and to the public that the market is sub ject to the jurisdiction of the Packers and Stockyards Act. The P&S Act is a fair busi ness practice law applicable to those engaged in handling or marketing livestock, mea ts. and live poultry moving m> interstate commerce. The state-wide posting pro gram announced today is the result of expanded jurisdic tion under the law prescri bed in an amendment passed by the last session of Cong ress. Prior to that time, livesto ck auction markets having less, than 20,000 square feet of space were not subject to the-'P&S Act. 0 Lane. Poultry (From page 3) Starr, 17. 17. M&B (James.

Silver City Taxco (pronounced Tasco) is in many ways a silver city. Silver built its lovely red tile roofed homes and the gold and silver decorated Santa Prisca church, one of the most magmficient in all of Mexico. Silver not only is mined here, but is refined and for med into beautiful jewelry by some of the finest silver smiths in the world. Their craftsmanship attracts tour 'ists ami other buyers from many nations. „„ „„„ T .

Saturday, July 18, Bible Material: Ruth Devotional Reading: Isaiah 58 6-11. All His Children Lesson for July 19, 1959 THE “POOK” of Ruth is a very short one. It could easily be printed in fairly large type on one page of a newspaper with room to spare. But it is-a mistake to judge writings by their length, otherwise the Congressional Record would be the world’s literar; and Lincoln’’* Gettysburg Ad dress 3 worthless trifle.
