the Industrial Department of the
West Texas Utilities Company cover-
ed a 12 month's period of active op-
erations. During that year approxi-
mately *10 industries were located in
West Texas through the direct effort
of the department. During the
department more than doubled this
figure, aiding in the establishment of
nearly 90 industries. The 1929 repor
consisted of major industrial enter-
prises such as carbon black plants,
gins, airports, hotels, produce com-
panies, supply companies, compresses
and other productive concerns which,
though just beginning business acti-
vities during 1929, materially addee
to West Texas progress.
The Industrial Department of the
West Texas Utilities Company, fun-
ctioning in conjunction with Cham-
bers of Commerce toward accelera-
ting West Texas progress has, this
year to date, been instrumental in
the location of an additional 30 en-
terprises. The (|u'0ta set. this ye ir i.
much beyond that of 1929 and its
attainment is confidently expected.
During the late summer and early
fall, with business prospects contin-
uing as they are, a perceptible in-
crease will be noticed ainonn' tie
newly established concerns.
The greatest month of stock sales
to date, is the record that June has
brought. with it in the sale of more
than 1700 shares of ,$i'i Preferroii
Stock of J. he West Texas Utilities
Company., all of which has been sold
to West Texai's.
This record, surpassing that of any
month in the history of the organi-
zation, has brought the sale of stock
for the first >ix months of 19'iO t
the grand total of 5,930 shares, a fig-
ure which has also never been equal-

Black-Draught.
Burke, Texas.—Mrs. Orea Craw-
ford, of this place, tells of her iim
of Thedford's Black-Draught which
she says covers a period of "a good
many years."
"We use Black-Draught as a regu-
lar family medicine for constipation,
and I try always to keep it in the
house.
"I have found it a reliable medi-
cine to give the children when they
get upset from over-eating, or have
colds, for after taking Black-
Draught they get all right in a
little while.
"I use Black-Draught for bilious,
sick headache. I have found that
a dose or two, taken at night, will
give quick relief for constipation
and the complications which follow
when that condition runs on.
"A bad taste in the mouth in the
morning, dizziness and a dull heed-
ache, all leave quickly after a few
doses of Black-Draught, I find it
is not safe to let such things run
on. I try to head off the danger
by taking Black-Draught in time.
It is a dependable medicine."
At the first sign of constipation,
take Thedford's Black-Draught.
Tins purely vegetable medicine has
been in use nearly 100 years.
