HOUSTON, Texas, March 27. ()-
Some of the familiar weeds that
grow wild on thousands of acres in
southwest Texas, produce valuable
commercial fibres, according to M.
P. Attwater, former railroad Indus-
trial agent. He asserts' that the
natural resources rot a great por-
tion of the state are practically un-
known.
In the area west of San Antonio,
south to the mouth of the Rio
Grande and north to El Paso, is a
- vast stretch of country thatabounds
in valuable natural resources, he
declares.
“The plant and vegetable prod-
ucts of this region are known to
have properties of value to com-
merce and industry," Mr. Attwater
continues. Besides the trees which
are used for construction and for
fuel, there is a wealth of smaller
growth of hard, richly colored,
close-grained wood suitable for
cabinet making and furniture. Some
of these trees furnish edible fruit
and nuts; many of them produce
. valuable sums and dyes and others
" yield costly oils and perfumes.}.,
“There are, flax, hemp, tannin,
. paper, soap, pepper and spice plants,
tea and coffee plants and an endless
variety of medicinal shrubs, many
of which contain antidotes against
poison. *
“There are numerous ornamental
and hedge shrubs, pasture and hay
grasses and forage plants. This
country is a natural home for the
. honey beeand they store their
honey in the canyon caves and hol-
* low trees. Every month and every
rain produces a fresh crop of bloom.
“Some of the plants nurtured in
northern hot houses and in Euro-
readings, sones.

EXTRAORDINARY VALUES
SATURDAY
pean conservatories grow wild in
profusion and during some months
of the year paint the landscape red,
white and blue before being tram-
pled by cattle and horses. The na-
tive silk worm thrives and the clfr
mate is exactly suited to the silk
industry.,
“Besides the vegetable products,
the undeveloped mineral resources
ofthe area include raw material
,.destined to be productive of wealth.
In the upper Rio Grande region, sil-
ver mines are being worked and
gold has been discovered in paying
quantities.
“Other valuable minerals are to
t be found to which little attention
has as yet been given. In some lo-
calities coal occurs. Inexhaustible
stores of the finest white flint sand
are found for the manufacture of
glass and great deposits of kaolin
exist for making china and crock-
eryware. N.
“There are also beds of clay miles
long suitable for making brick,
sewer pipe and eathernware and
sandstone, limestone and rock which
furnishes the best cement and plas-
ter of parts in unlimited quanti-
ties.
"Then there is a rock salt and
asphaltum and along the coast
miles of marl and phosphate beds
await development. — In the interior
gypsum and ochre are found in
many places,rand valuable mineral
paints have been discovered at
many points where wells have been
— dug. Sulphur and other flowing
wells of mineral water are con-
- - stantly being, obtained. In one of
the Rio Grande counties the ar-
tesian water comes .so near the sur-
face that flowing wells have been
1 started simply by driving a gas pipe
into the ground-
“Much other useful and valuable
, raw material could be mentioned
and intelligent investigation would
. doubtless result in new discoveries.”

Daysof privitation and torture
while living on raw rabbit meat,
suffered in the hope of finding a
home in free America, only to lose
the chance when exposure became
unbearable, is the experience of Paul
Bierat, a citizen of Poland, now in
custody of immigration officials here |
awaiting deportation to his native
land. —-—-
Bierat was discovered in Uvalde
county by Immigration Inspectors
Stiles and Bynum, and though the
fugitive realized that his chances of
finding a place in this country faded
with-arrest. he was glad to see the
officers. He was weak and ema-
elated. - 1
Blerat began his journey from Po-T
land to America July 12, 1921. His
first stop was Paris, where" he
stayed three years. He then sailed
for Vera Cruz, Mexico, and lived for
a time in Mexico City. He then
worked his way near the American
border, stopping at Monterrey.
He then made the last dash to
America. Selecting a desolate spot
near Plednas-Norpas, he slipped. Inter
the United States about the middle
of February.
He was unfamiliar with Texas
geography, and after days of wan-
dering, Bierat realized he was lost.
At last he came upon a ranch
‘ house and was given food. Again
he became lost, and in desperation
for food, he conceived the idea of |
3 snaring the long-eared rabbits that 1
abound in the underbrush.
The rabbits kept him alive, but
as he continued the journey his
strength waned. Rabbits were not
S’ so easily caught then, and as he told
the inspectors they were soon able
0 to "out run" him. "
Bierat soon will be returned to
