the front. After some discussion a
report was sent to the synod OF
Missouri, South, in session at Mexl-
co, stating that it was the intention
to terminate the existing co-opera-
ton one year from date, and giving
the reasons therefor, which were
First, dissatisfaction among presby-
series and church with the presen,
system of raising the salary for the
support of a professor. Second,
that it was distinctly understood at
the time this cooperation was
undertaken that the chief purpose
in entering into it was that through
cooperation to make some advance
toward the organic union cf the
two synods, and that since the
hope of this had been removed by
the action of their assembly, the
main incentive to continued co.
operation in Westminster College
has been taken away.

DEEP FLOWING.
Some Testimony Touching Agricultural
Experiments In New Mexico.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
San MATEo, N. NJ. Feb. IL, 'S9.-Your
issue of the 5th ins, contains an article
of the highest importance to the farmers
of New Mexico. 1t relates to expert
ments made at Mansfield, Conn, by the
Storrs agricultural school. 1t is claimed
that these experiments prove conclusively
that deep plowing is of great benefit, es-
pecially to the prairie regions of the
west, where the rainfall is often deficient.
Now, my experience and the experiments
that l have made during the many years
that l have been practical farmer prove
just the contrary. Deep plowing is of no
benefit whatever in this section of the
country, where the rainfall is always de-
icient. When the ground is plowed
deeply in the spring and then planted to
wheat or corn the seed terminates quick
ly and starts to grow luxuriously, and if
water can be had to irrigate it twice dur
ing the summer splendid crop is as
sured. If there is no water to irrigate with,
nor rain, and plenty of it in the month
of June, the land becomes very
dry and the crop fails. Some patches in
each field will survive, and by digging up
those patches it will be ascertained that
the roots made mighty effort and sue
ceeded in growing to an extraordinary
length until reaching the firm and COM
pact moist earth. The balance perished
before reaching that point. If the land is
plowed deep in the fall, the snow will
penetrate and soak it and the growing
crops will last little longer, but will per-
ish in summer, if there is no rain or water
for irrigation, much quicker than if the
land had not been plowed deep. If the
land is plowed deep, and after planting
the seed heavy log is dragged over the
field, the moisture will last long while,
but if this is not done the soil will become
dry to the bottom in very short while.
This goes to prove that the results of ex-
periments in one section of the country
are Of no value to other sections. am
convinced that in this section of New
Mexico deep plowing is of no value what
ever except in an exceptionally wet year.
In humid country deep blowing may be
advisable. Cordially yours,
AMADo CHAvEs.

MIR. BLAINE 1T IS.
The Plumed Knight as President Harri-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Mr. Blaine will
be President Harrison s secretary of state,
unless he recalls the letter OF acceptance
which he mailed about three weeks ago.
Gen. Harrison revelved the matter long
time in his mind, and accordingly, on
January II, he wrote Mr.. Blaine letter
of considerable length containing good
many complimentary expressions, and
asking him to accept the first place in his
cabinet.
Mr.. Blaine waited for two or three days
and then wrote stating that he would ac-
cept. The acceptance was unconditional
and there can be little doubt that it will
be adhered to.
