CROP BULLETIN
OF the New Mexico Weather Service
For the Week Ending August s.
U. s. DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE,


U. s. DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE,
Weather Bureau.
The weather during the past week has
been very favorable for all kinds of crops
and fruit. Partly cloudy weather with
requent showers has been the prevailing
condition.
The southern part of the territory has
been favored with seasonable amount
of rainfall, but was rather unevenly dis
tributed
In the favored localities many late
crops that were suffering severely for
water are now starting up and with a
fair amount of rain during the present
month will make partial crop. The
ranges in the south, that were nearly
burned out by the long drouth are begin
ming to show signs of life, but large
amount of rain will be necessary to in
sure good supply of feed for the winter.
In the northern part everything has
made splendid progress during the week.
The ranges are reported to be in excel
| lent condition. The principal hay pro
duct of the territory is alfalfa, and the
reports indicate that up to date the
amount produced is about the average in
the northern part but much below the
average in the south.
The following extracts from a few of
the reports of the crop correspondents,
received at this Office, will be of interest,":
Springer-Rainfall, 20 of an inch.
Grass fine, no better at this time of year
in ten years. Good prospect for corn,
oats and alfalfa.
Halls Peak-Everything making ex-
celent progress. A splendid growing
week. Rainfall during week, 1.6o inches.
Ciruela-Fruit in tlne condition. The
rains of the past few days of great bene-
fit, as they were slow and steady. On
August l the heaviest fall of rain for
years, over two inches. River swollen,
running over banks. Alfalfa much in
jured, except that in stack, very good
outlook for corn and growing crop of
alfalfa. Total rainfall during the past
week was 3.O1 inches.
Gallinas Springs.-The rains have been
scattering the past week, but most crops
are doing we'll. Rainfall, .32 of an inch.
| Las Vegas.-The week has been cool
and damp and grass and crops have
come forward we'll. Rainfall, .29 of an
inch.
La Luz.-Condition have been more
favorable for all crops, the frequent rains
in the mountains have increased the sup
ply of water for irrigation. More rain is
needed for the grass on the ranges. Sec
ond crop of alfalfa is being cut, and is
much lighter than first, owing to lack of
water for irrigation. Immense yields OF
fine potatoes are being dug for market in
the mountains.
Alma.-Condition of range and cattle
improving. All crops growing fast and
plenty of water for irrigation. Rainfall
.55 of an inch.
Roswell.-The outside country begins
to show the need Of rain to lay the dust
and freshen the grass; cattle doing well
and range is good and all crops growing
finely. Melons, corn and fruit plentiful
in market.
Rincon.-Rain and cloudy days have
been the rule during the week, adding
very materially to the prospects for late
crops and for range.

Won MAY strike it Rich.

Ifyou could pick up $4,000 in gold by
one weeks work, it would beworth going
a few hundred miles to get, wouldn't it?
That's just what the Aztec mine (Colfax
Co., New Mexico) produced in seven days
with total product to date of nearly a
million dollars.
This rich mine is one of many in the
newly discovered MoIero valley and Ute
Creek placer and quartz gold districts.

bill Is now pending before Congress
which provides that every inmate of the Ma
uonal Soldiers Home, near this city, who
draws a pension of more than So a month
shall be required to pay the surplus for
board up to S14 per month, and that any sum
In excess Of the latter amount shall be held
In trust for the inmate until he shall leave
the Home or die. From motives of fair
ness. justice and patriotism alone Congress
should knock such a measure decisively ON
the head, but it happen. that there is no
necessity for basing such applaudable ac-
ton upon merely sentimental grounds The
proposition contemplates nothing more nor
less than direct violation Of the existing
regulations Of the United States army as
well as the statute which prescribes the
regulations for the conduct of the Home.

have been discharged for wounds received

Portable Home is maintained in the city Of
Washington Twelve and a half cents per
Month is deducted from each soldiers pay
to be supplied toward the support of the
Home" But outside of its illegality, the
proposed measure shocks the sensibllities
Of every fair-minded and impartial man
who possesses a grain of grateful loyalty.
There is nothing more pathetic than the
bent and grizzled old men in blue who
round out their lives in the beautiful park
in the suburbs The life Of every one of
them Is an epitome Of some chapter in the
history Of the country. They are living
reminders of the martyrdom of the millions
who gave their all that the luster Of loyalty
should forever shine from every forehead
In the Union Of the states. They are the
benedictions Of the battles where the Stars
and Stripes were plunged into the baptism
Of blood to come forth purified and endowed
with Life eternal and glory everlasting.
There Is something wrong with the indi-
vidual who would ask these poor old bat
tle-scarred and ever faithful veterans to
give up a part Of the meager pittances
they receive to pay their board. 1t is so
mean; so ininitesimally small that 1t is
almost beneath serious consideration. The
United States government is too great to
be niggardly and too grateful to renounce
the survivors Of those who saved 1t.

Slammed by the activity of the United
States. and compelled to action by British
ship-owners, the government of Great
Britain Is about to go into partnership
with our government to the end that ocean
derelicts be destroyed just as soon as posi-
bic after their existence becomes known.
For some time past vessels of the United
States Navy have been engaged in hunting
up and destroying the floating wrecks that
were on the Atlantic coast and in the line
OF traffic with Europe. The successful
efforts to rid that portion of the Atlantic of
the ter-ors which mariners fear most has
been highly appreciated by English and
American vessel-owners. but until recently
the British government showed no DISPOSE
ton to assist in the good work. Now, how
ever, the admiralty has promised to create
commission empowered to deal with the
subject, and 1t is expected that in the near
future vessels of both governments will
patrol certain portions Of the North At
lantic. and will remove every one of the
floating dangers which have been RESPONSE
BILE for the loss Of many a sound craft.

Cheaper and better Illuminating gas Is
one OF the things for which the District
OF Columbia has long pleaded. The House
Of Representatives has recognized the ne
cessity for reform and has provided for a
decrease in the price of the gas furnished by
the Washington Gaslight Company and for
a material betterment of the qualities it
should possess. The bill In which these
desirable things are provided is in the
hands Of the Senate, where 1t should claim
early and friendly attention. There is no
appearance OF injustice In the measure
nor Is 1t likely that the existence of any
can be shown. Testimony submitted by
the corporation itself shows conclusively
that frst-class illuminant can be made
and sold with a suficiency Of resultant
profit for 81 per thousand feet and with
this fact before 1t the Senate should move
as rapidly as it can to make effective the
admirable suggestions of the House. The
Senate has never been careless of the in
terests Of those 50 peculiarly dependent
for legislation as are residents of the Dis
trict Of Columbia and many times 1t has
endeavored to do what would have been
for the public welfare had the House been
Of like mind. In this matter conditions are
to some extent reversed. The House has
done its duty nobly and 1t now remains for
the Senate to concur in the action of the
popular body which sits at the other end
of the Capitol Good gas can be made and
distributed probably at the dollar rate
Experience has shown this to be 50 In sew
eral cities and Washington wants to share
In that SORT Of an experience.

The modern motto, III adopt

Wed bask in summers charm!
What hours Of sweet content we'd pass
II heat were not so warm!
What blissful comfort we could know
In months that now speed lily!
What weeks Of indolent repose,
If cold were not so chillyl
Think Of the rambles we might take,
With freedom from regret,
Consulting naught but our desires
If rain were not so wet!
And so by night and day I'll raise
My wall both loud and long,
To rake this foolish world believe
Whatever Is, is wrong"

From the New York Journal Of Commerce
One reason for placing the national CAPT.
tai in the forests on the bank of the Poto-
mac instead of in Philadelphia or New
York, or one of the southern cities, and the
sole reason for giving Congress exclusive
jurisdiction over the capital city and its
surroundings, was to protect it from just
such mob demonstrati ons as Coxey and Fry
are leading. Congress may see fit to en-
courage this sort of thing now. but the peo-
pie of Washington are certainly entitled to
some protection. All power of protecting
themselves has been taken from them by
the people of the United States. They have
no municipal or territorial government that
they have any voice in creating or influence
ing They have not even a delegate in Con-
gress, as Oklahoma has. Is 1t a decent
thing for the rest of the country to unload
its vagabopds on the people of Washington?
