valley were much interested in the New
MExICAN's endeavor to have merchants
purchase and place on sale seed of the
white pearl dent corn, variety which
promises such bountiful results as COM

charming and accomplished young lady
in range and pathos of voice. This is

querque musicians who will take part
will contribute sweet songs and instru-
mental music.
