A TO. lotol, Oaee Thona;ht Worthlawa, , Found to Be Full of Alcohol. Another wild desert plant that grows profusely upon many millions of acres of land In the' 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 quick, 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 taken 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 dls tlllesy hau 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 Rio Grando Itlver 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 sotoj plant Primitive stills were In operation from which a fiery white liquor was obtained. The Inips were wont to indulge freely In this native intoxicant The sotol liquor still Is a favorite beverage among the Mexicans of the border. The American cowboy of this region has an Intimate knowl edge of the "fighting," qualities of thit liquor. It s one of the phases of Ini tiation which the tenderfoot Is always put through upon the border ranches. "The main objection to the stuff Is that you've got to run a mile to get your breath after, you have taken a drink of it," said a cowboy the other day. .-; ;. ;' Mother) will find Mrs. WInslow's Soothln Syrup the b. et remedy to use for their chiiOxej iuriug the teetluuf period.
