The Border Rubber Company resurges the Marathon plant in Brewster county Texas after years of decline. A guayule rubber operation now produces about a ton daily with a 70 worker force, powered by three wells and full processing facilities. Output aims to stay steady while plantation rubber prices stay favorable, supplying New York City.

Guayule Shrub and Tax Debate Featured in Rural Press
The article describes the guayule shrub as a small bushy tree with grayish leaves and a latex sap called latux, noting its mountain habitat and soil preferences. It also discusses tax burdens showing twelve and a half cents out of every dollar earned going to federal taxes, with proposals to reduce expenditures and taxes amid war costs. Hunters near Ensenal report three bucks bagged by a party including T. W. Oliphint and others, to be home soon.
