keeping are evidently of Il Q right
kind, Gays the Massachusetts Plow-
man. She has an instructive fines,
for caring for Young animals and o
gentleness and evenness of tempera-
ment equally valuable amongst help
less creatures. The Danbury mans
humorous description of the different
ways in which woman and a man at
tempt to get hen into a coop and
the superiority of the formers mt thod
is as funny as it is true. After the
hennery is built there is no depart,
ment of the work that woman can
not perform without exhsusting labor
or too heavy demands on her time.
That the business is profitable the ex-
perience of hundreds testify, and that
it is bealthful and maybe attractive is
susceptible of demonstr, ton.
Now that there are women garden
ers and florists, who by commendable
industry and business qualities have
risen to eminence in those callings,
and while one of the most successful
bee keepers in the country is q woman,
we hope to see others give poultry
more attention than it has hitherto
received.
Aside from profit the keeping of fine
poultry for fancy is an elegant pas
time, very popular with the English,
| and we zee no reason why the fac hion
thould not be adopted here.
We should be glad to see the lady
poultry raisers In America largely in
creased in number.
STICK TO THE OLD.
Writing on the subject OF new va
rieties of fruits Mr.. F. Grundy in Ru-
raj New Yorker advises people OF
limited means who are setting out
fruit trees either for their own use or
market to stick to well known old va
rieties. He says, fancy, high priced
sorts are well enough to experiment
with, but for real business the old
well-tested varieties are emphatically
the best. The person who pays ons
dollar for dozen plants of somebody's
scarlet sugar waxen marvel straw
berry when he can get q hundred
Crescents or Warfelds for the same
amount, is on the highway to bank
ruptcy and fervid wrath, unless he is
well supplied with reserve funds and
the mix of human kindness, or ia
growing plants for sale.
The beginner who is after plain
eatable fruit will get fifty times more
berries and. a hundred times more
satisfaction from one dollars worth OF Q
well known reliable variety than from
$40 worth of an astonishing name.
l know several persons who invested
their hard earned dollars sn Waxen
Jumbos and sugar plum beauties in
stead OF buying the old reliable when
they set out to grow their own straw
berries, and the result was failure, Bit
terness and gall. / know others who
started in with 90 cents worth of some
tough, hardy variety that would grow
and make berries, with the wickt dest
sort of culture and these would now
as soon think OF going without bread
as their annual feast Of strawberries.

Howard 7. Vaille, of Las Vegas, super
lntendent of the Colorado Telephone
company, which operates exchanges at
Las Vegas and Albuquerque, is in town
to-day comforting with local business men
regarding telephone system. lie thinks
that dozen or fifteen business institu-
tons can be induced to put in telephones
upon the very reasonable terms he offers.
The New MEXICAN, of course, was among
the first points visited and Mr.. Vaile was
assured that the New MEXICAN office
could be counted on as patron. 1t is
hoped the banks, public buildings, depots,
hotels and leading business houses will
consider we'll the proposition which Mr..
Vaille makes. 1t would add very mater
tally to the business convenience of Santa
Fe to have such system in operation.

NARROW GAUGE CHANGES.


President jeffrey, of the D. & R. &.
road, has returned to Denver from an ex-
tended trip east as far as New York.
While in the metropolis he had several
conferences with the directors Of the COM
pany and a policy for the future govern
ment of the road was mapped out which,
it is said, contempates for the future far
different treatment of the roads patrons
in Colorado and New Mexico than they
have been accorded in the past. 1t is
understood that the project of extending
the line into central New Mexico was one
of the questions considered at the con
ferences, and while results are as yet not
ready for publicity, it is known that Presl-
dent Jeffrey and his chief engineer will
shortly again visit New Mexico and view
the proposed route from this city to Albu-
querque via Cerrillos and San Pedro.
Several important changes IN the heads
of departments on the ID. 4 r. q. will
take place the first OF the year. Among
those who step up are n. w. Sample and
j. J. Burns, both of whom were visitors
in Santa Fe with the jeffrey party few
weeks ago. Mr.. Burns, who is to be
superintendent Of telegraph and also
superintendent of the first division, is
now superintendent of transportation and
telegraph. His new position will require
him to establish his headquarters at
Pueblo, instead Of Denver, where his
office now is.
He is known to be very friendly to
southern Colorado and New Mexico in
forests, and believes that the southern
divisions of the narrow gauge, when prop
erly managed, can be made to earn the
cream of the roads profits.
N. w. Sample, the gentleman who has
been selected by Mr.. jeffrey to fill the i'm
portant position of general superintend'
ent, is now superintendent OF motive
power and machinery, and his associates
regard HIM as one of the most efficient
! level-headed, all-around railroad man in
the company's service. His connection
with the road dates back a little over
twenty years, and his knowledge of every
detail Is not equaled by any one else. lie
was born IN Lancaster county, Pa, Au
gust IA, 1913, and he enlisted in the ser
| vice OF MS county at lne beginning o
the war. He was rapidly promoted fo
gallant service, and when mustered out a
the close of the war, he bore the title o
major. In July, 1871, he entered thu
service of the Denver & Rio Grande rail
way as machinist. A year later he wa
promoted to foreman of the shops, ant
IN July, 1876, he was appointed maste
mechanic.
He was again promoted in 1882 to thu
position of superintendent of machiner!
and motive power, which position he nov
holds. HIS ability has always been recog
nized by the company, and although
there have been various changes in man
agement, none of them have affected him
except in the present instance to secure
his promotion.

ROUND ABOUT TOWN.

No train from the south.
Bank statements elsewhere in to-day's
paper.
Justice H. Vigil has removed his Office
to the corner Of Water and Shelby streets,
opposite the Sena residence.
John Morton, who is hustler in bust
ness, has six deer in his store; they were
killed in the Santa Fe mountains.
The city council should see that the
sidewalks are cleaned off and kept clean
from snow and all sorts of other obstruc-
tons.
1t begins to look somewhat as if Santa
Fe would have large wooden mill in
operation next spring. The project is in
good hands.
A telephone line connecting with the
depot, the hotels and the principal bust
ness offices of the city would prove Of
benefit and convenience.
The first train over the Santa Fe since
Monday last got in this morning at 8 80.
The train service seems to be somewhat
battered up, but is still in the ring.

The household goods and office furni-

up and will be shipped to Albuquerque
during the coming week.
Supt. Helm, of the Santa Fe Southern,
has advlces that the competing through
rates over the narrow gauge from all
eastern points will go into effect about
the 25th inst.
Half a dozen young men and an equal
number Of young ladies had merry time
of it sleigh riding in the moonlight last
night. Their bobsled was drawn by four
horses.
The old portals around the plaza and
along the principal streets can be very
easily dispensed with. Take them down
and let the people have more fresh air
and sunshine.
The property owners of the capital
should bestir themselves. Side walks
around the plaza. on Washington avenue
and on Palace avenue are very necessary
and would prove paying investments.
W. J. Slaughter. of the plaza barber
shop will, on and after the first of jan
uary, next reduce the priceof shaving to
Is cents per shave, and thusly westward
the star of empire takes its way.
Two special trains hauling something
over 100 Raymond & Whitcomb excur-
sionists from New England arrived last
night and spent the better part of the day
here. They were delayed en route about
ten hours by snow, first at La Junta and
again at Trinidad.
The Santa Fe railroad should have an
up town Office both for it's own sake and |
for convenience of the travelling public
and the shipping merchants. The in

The First Gun.

The Santa Fe Southern road has re.
ceived orders to ship several Car loads Of
Cerrilos anthracite coal to Del Norte and
other points in Colorado. 1t seems that
Colorados chief supply of hard coal now
comes from the Crested Butte mines, and
in consequence of the strike there the
supply is running very short. As Colo.
RADIO cities continue to build up they will
naturally have to look toward the great
coal fields of Santa Fe county for no small
part of their fuel supply, and this order
from Del Norte is the first gun that sounds
the opening of a new and great demand
for the superior Goals of this region.
1t is not going beyond reasonable as
sertion to say that, outside of the passen
ger and ordinary merchandise traffic, the
coal and mineral ores alone will supply
the narrow gauge with profitable bust
ness when the line is extended to the
coal and mineral fields of Santa Fe
county
