A WISE OWL
The first calamity of the season
befell one of our nearby hubbys
last week. John Lewis, after see-
ing all the definite signs of spring
decided to step forth in his light
trousers. Well, he hunted them
high and low, but nary a sign of
them. So finally he inquired and

CARING FOR TREES
Unless tree injuries are treated
promptly, the entire tree will be
destroyed gradually, claim exten-

ia State College. Every broken
limb or other external injury
that penetrates to the inner bark
is a. source of future trouble.

The boys at the Fire House
were having a hot discussion on
government activities. Ray Myers
asked: “What do you think about
government ownership of railroads,
power resources and so on?”
Red Mateer answered “I think
it's a great thing. When the gov-
ernment owns and runs everything
it'll have to pay all the taxes it-
self.”

Lucky is the tourist on a South |

to pronounce the unfamiliar names |

cult for the stranger are some of
these Indian and Spanish words
that travel companies distribute a |
key to the pronunciation of towns,
lakes and falls which tourists usually

continent. Magallanes, for instance,
a town near the Magellan straits

Maguey Plant Source of
Powerful Alcohelic Sap
Siphoning out the sap of the ma-
i guey plant is one cf .the first steps
in the making of pulque—that potent
{ drink which puts pep into native
fiestas in South America. The ma-
guey plant is a form of cactus and
when full grown is an upside-down-
looking affair with ten-foot leaves
massed in artichoke formation near
the ground, giving rise to a flower
stalk which often grows to a height
of 25 feet and bears thousands of
flowers. Plants such as this are
among the strange sights in Mexico
City, writes a correspondent in the
New York World-Telegram.
When the plant is ready for har-
vesting—just before the flowers are
born—the tlachiqueros cut cif the
newly formed flower stalk and dig
out the heart. In the hollow pocket
thus formed the sap gathers, which
in the normal course of events would
rise in the flower stalk and feed
the flowers. As this honey water
collects in the hollow the tlachiquer-
os make the rounds, two or three
times a day, and siphon out the
fluid. The siphons, or acocotes, as
they are called, are in the form of
long gourds with a small pipe at
each end. One end is placed in
the sap pocket, the other in the
mouth of the tlachiquero, and the
sap drawn by suction into the gourd
and from there emptied into the
keg. These kegs are ihen taken to
the hacienda, and the honey water
is placed in large vats to ferment.
The resulting pulque has a 6 per
cent alcohol content and is very
