Take the dry scarf from the string (zoom). Now you need to get rid of the ink stain, so ask Ali for milk and a lemon. Unfortunately there aren't in the hotel, so you need to go to the bazaar. This time go to the market square and ask the camel trader for milk. It seems you have to milk it yourself; you'll even get a pot for it. Approach the animal and try to milk it (use the pot on it). Sylvie will conclude that the animal will get peaceful after slaking his thirst.
Go to the square with a well and take a look at the well with a pump (zoom). You have to open the valves (an open valve has the handle set along the pipe, as a locked one - perpendicularly) and get the water from the lower left valve to the upper right. In order to do that you have to open the first lower horizontal [1] and second lower vertical [2]. Afterwards the first vertical [3] on the upper level and the second vertical on the next level [4]. Eventually open both horizontal [5] [6] on the higher level. This task has to be done with a trial and error method, opening the wrong valve will result in flooding the antique and camel trader, so you can systematically eliminate the valves which shouldn't be opened. It's important to begin from the lowest ones, then you will know if you're following a correct path. Below is a screen of correct solution:
Now, using the pot, you can peacefully milk the camel and get the milk. Afterwards go left and take a look at the lemon tree (zoom). Try to pick a lemon from it, but it's too high to reach. Talk to the trader - you'll receive a whip. Try to knock down a lemon using it - unfortunately it's still too high. Talk to the trader once more and he will suggest to try and do it from atop of a camel.
Approach the animal and lead it to the tree using the sweet leaves. Get on it (zoom) and pick a lemon using the whip.
