WHY NOT CALI IT CABRITO?
float meat it is said will not sell
in the interior of Texas because it is
called goat meat.
Goat meat as such it has been
found is unpalatable.
So the distinguished gentlemen of
the Agricultural and Mechanical Col-
lege have sent out a call for sugges-
tions for a name that will signjfy the
meat of the goat without being
known as such.
They point out that there is a pre-
judice against goat meat for no other
reason than the fact that it is called
goat meat and nothing else.
The meat of the cow is known as
“beef” the meat of the calf is
“veal” that of the hog is “pork.”
sheep meat is known as “mutton.”
and deer as “venison" but the lowly
yoat when some oru* passed out a
title for the meats of the various ani-
mals was overlooked.
All over the border country on
the American side as well as the
Mexican side the goat is a damiliar
animal He is herded in large num-
bers by the owners of ranches. His
meat provides food Tor many hun-
dreds of thousands of Mexican and
Americans themselves particularly
the old-timers of the bonier .are not
averse to a little goat meat now and
then. *
The meat of the goat is to be found
in the markets of the cities on the
American side of the border and
throughout all Mexico. His meat is
comparatively cheap. And regard- |
less of the age of the goat killed for
food purposes it is known as “ca-
brito.” as soon as it is skinned and
butchered.
Millions of people in Mexico call
it “cabrito"—this meat of the goat. I
Hundreds of thousands along the
border from Brownsville to Califor-
nia know it as “cabrito.”
The name “cabrito.” as applied to
goat meat then already ha- a splen-
did start. Millions are familiar with
»it. Only a little more publicity for
“cabrito" in Texas will soon have
the meat of the goat firmly estahlish-
de throughout Texas as “cabrito.” |
As cabrito it would be found palat- j
able. It would find a ready sale in
the markets of the larger cities as
cabrito.
Why search further for a name for
goat meat when here is one that is
entirely euphonious that is as far
in sound or similarity of form
from “goat meat" as beef is from
the cow pork from the hog venison
from the deer mutton from the
sheep.
“Cabrito is the Spanish for kid
or a young goat. Goat is “cabra."
The name “cabrito" is therefore
respectfully referred to Director B.
Youngblood of the experiment sta-
tion of the Agricultural and Mechan-
ical College of Texas as the appro-
priate euphemism for goat meat.
Congressman John N. Garner calls
to the attention of The Herald its
error recently in confusing the Bu-
reau of Engraving and Printing with
the Government Printing office. The
reorganization of the first named
had no connection whatever with the
fight of Blanton on the numerous em-
ployes ir. the Government Printing
Office. _ _
The Galveston News the oldest
newspaper in Texas and among the
oldest in the country recently ob-
served its eightieth anniversary. It
has been four score years filled with
sendee to the people of Texas. The
News has seen made and helped to
make the history of the I.one Star
state almost from the date of the
birth of the state._
- The Valley always ha< a. crop to
look *orwurd to. With early vege
tables going into the markets of the \
country and while the northern
cities still have occasional flurries of
snow and freezing temperatures the
Valley is estimating the extent of
the cotton crop and wondering whe-
ther the boll worms will make their
appearance in greater or lesser
numbers.
The May Watermelon Growers’
Association has been organized some- J
where in Texas. The Valley should
not permit such a step without going j
it one better. Let’s organize the
April Watermelon Growers’ Associ- I
ation. They come earlier here than
in May.

FOR ABLE LEGISLATORS
(Paris Morning Newst
It lias become the fashion in Texa# to
deride members of the legislature; to
belittle the importance of the office; to
ignore the great responsibility which
rests upon the members.
Man y counties give small hcc«l to th«*
men win* offer for the place and then
have remarks to make when they arc
beset with the effo.-ts of giving no heed
to the candidates.
It is true that the compel sat ion is
small; and that the people have definite
l.r refused to increase it. I bit that Is
largely by reason of the reputation
which is borne by tin* legislative bodies
in tin* public mind.
Some of the greatest men in Texas
have served as members of the legists
lure- men who rank as statesmen: and
they considered it an honor to |»c sent
representative tf their countv or dis-
trict.
I He preset.t legislature lias anmnr its
members some nieii who stand high as i
roust met ive ami fur sighted citizens. I
intent upou serving Texas as she should I
lip served hut there is evidence that tr
majority of the members are not of that
type.
For one tiling the rieglcct to provide
for the public schools of the Slate lie-
fond the elnl of the present term. Tint!
is sufficient to ts tjileitin at v inemher of
the bodies win* shared in that neglect.
Another is the yielding to the execu-
tive pressure to reduce the appropriation
for the rural schools.
Still another i~ tin* fight which was
made ftpou the university; and more es-
peciailv gratuitous offense given Pres-
ident Vinson.
The playing *f polities i;. the matter
of refusal to make appropriation for the
prison system is an instance of just
how ftir many of tin* members will go
in neglecting their duty that they may
score a fancied little victory over the i
executive.
If the legislature fails then <>tir sys.

CALOMEL MAY TURN
ON YOU NEXT TIME
Next Dose You Take May Salivate
and Start World of Trouble
% —
Ca’omel is mercury; quicksilver. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite
cramping and sickening you. Calome]
attacks the bones and should m-vei
be put into your system.
If you feel bilious headachy con-
stipated and all knocked out just gn
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson’s Liver Tone for a few cents
which is a harmless vegetable substi-
tue for dangerous calomel. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn’t start yout
liver and straighten you up better and
quicker than nasty calomel and with-
out making you sick you just go back
ami get your money.
Don’t take calomel! It makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a day’s
work. Dodson’s Liver Tone straight
ens you right up and you feel great
No salts necessary. Give it to th<
children because it is perfectly harm
less and cannot salivate.—Adv. (<j7)
