A few years njro Marconi came before the world with , the statement that he could

Likewise the Alveolar System f f replacing teeth in the human mouth without the use
of cumbersome and unsightly plates, which is the latest method to be adopted by scientific
dentistry.

Found to De Full of Alcohol,
Another wild dcHert plant thut grows
profusely uiwm many millions of acres
of land In tho mountainous region of
western Texas now is being used as a
profitable- source of revenue, says the
Kansas City Star. It Is the sotol.
which Is said to be found in no other
part of the United States. It Is of
(juifk, sturdy growth. It long has been
known that alcohol could be made from
this plant, but It is only within the last
few months that steps have been takes
to utilize this knowledge In a commer
cial way by the manufacture of dena
tured alcohol from the large bulb which
forms a part of the growth. This bulb
is situated just above the ground and
frequently is a foot in diameter. The
percentage of alcohol which it contains
Is said to be larger than in any other
known product.
It was not until in the last session of
Congress that authority was granted
for the manufacture of denatured alco
hol from the sotol plant. As a result
of this Federal permission, a sotol dis
tillery has been established at El Paso
and large, shipments of the sotol bulb
are being made from the Alpine section
to that place for conversion into the
denatured product.
When the early Spanish explorers
first penetrated the region along the
Uio Grande Itiver below Alpine, more
than two centuries ago, they found that
the Pueblo and other Indian tribes had
a knowledge of the alcoholic properties
of the sotol plant Primitive stills were
In operation from which a fiery white
liquor was obtained. The Indians were
wont to lnduige freely in this native
intoxicant. The sotol liquor still is n
favorite beverage among the Mexicans
of the border. The American cowboy
of this region has an intimate knowl
edge of the "lighting" qualities of thk
liquor. It Is one of the phases of inl
tlation which the tenderfoot is always
put through uiion the border ranches,
J he main objection to the stuff Is
that you've got. to run a mile to get
your breath after you have taken
arms or it," said a cowboy the other
