NEW MEXICO AND WOOL.
An Entertaining Talk with Hon. Geo,
ii. Wallace on a Live Subject-Oar
TerritOry's Advantages--A
Call for Delegates.

Hon. Geo. II. Wallace, of Missouri,
formerly U. s. consul to Melbourne, Aus
tralia, under the Harrison administra-
ton, and who is now resident of Santa
Fe, to-day received from Judge VIM.
Lawrence, of Bellefontaine, Ohio, presi-
dent of the National Wool Growers as
ISOLATION, formal letter urging him to
be present at the next meeting of this
organization, which Judge Lawrence has
called to take place at the Ebbitt house,
Washington, d. c., on December Is.
Wool growers generally are invited to
attend this meeting and aid in the work
of guaranteeing to the producer of wool
fair play in any tariff schedule shat may
come up for consideration at the ap-
preaching short session or at the next
session of congress. Mr.. Wallace sug-
gests that the eastern manufacturer, who
now has and has always had, the best of
the bargain as regards tariff legislation,
will be we'll organized when tariff revision
begins, and, as the friend of the producer,
he thinks no time should be lost among
western wool growers to meet this organi
cation by organization among them
selves, to the end that justice shall
be done to all parties concerned. Mr..
Wallace expects to be present himself
and he hopes that New Mexico, through
its Wool Growers association, will see to
it that full delegation is 10 attendance
from this territory, "for," said he to

more than year and a careful study of
this terrltory's wool growing industry,
that the conditions, climatic and other

stitute it the wool growing country of the
world, not excepting Australia. Your

mining interests are all right and will.
when developed, yield handsome profits
and furnish remunerative employment
for many thousands, because here, owing
to the superior climatic conditions,
they can be worked to advantage the
year round, but my idea is that the big
money and your future prosperity hinges
largely upon sheep and wool growing en-
terprises. These mountain ranges, COW
cred with succulent grasses, can furnish
the sweetest mutton in the world. Two
clips of wool per year are alwaya to be
had, and with proper grading of hocks, a
reasonable tariff and ordinary good bust
ness methods, no country should yield a
greater revenue to the sheep husbandrY
than New Mexico"

U. s. LAND COURT.
Two Important OpiniOns Handed
Down This MOrning-Adj0urned
Until May 4.

The United States court of private land
claims met this morning with all the
judges present.
Chief Justice Reed handed down the
opinion of the court rejecting the Caoada
de Las Mestenas grant in Taos county,
on the ground that it was an alcalde grant
made in 1928.
In the Penasco Largo and Santiago
Ramirez grant cases, of Santa Fe county,
consolidated, Judge Stone handed down
the opinion of the court confirming both
grants "to the valleys of the streams''
instead of ''to the tops of the bordering
mountains"
The court then set forty -fve cases for
trial at five weeks term beginning on
May and took recess until that time.
Judges Fuller, Murray and Sluss left for
the east this morning. Judges Reed and
Stone will remain in Santa Fe for two or
three days before departing for their
respective homes in Council Bluffs ard
Denver.

MAKING BEET SUGAR.
Beet sugar Factory at Eddy Success
fully Started-ExceedingR Richness
Of the PecOs Beets.

There were about $50 people present
when the first beets we're run through the
elevators and into the diffusion cells at
the beet sugar factory Wednesday, says
the Eddy Current. The machinery was
set to work on the beets at 1920 a. m.
Mr.. Salich, the constructing engineer,
had started the wheels but still remained
to see that everything worked we'll when
the loads of beets commenced to flow
through the machines. Outside of usual
and expected slipping of belt every
thing proved that the constructing engi.
neer and his able assistant, Mr.. Thomas,
had performed their work in manner
highly gratifying, and proved that Mr..
Musy, the superintendent, made no mis-
take in selection of expert builders when
he engaged his engineer to erect the beet
sugar factory in Eddy. Mr.. Musy will
now, with the assistance of Mr.. Thomas,
operate the plant and educate hundred
green hands in the mysteries of sugar
making. The beets are proving richer
in sugar than was even anticipated by
the most sanguine observers, except
Messrs. Skeats and Foex, tie chemists,
who all along have insisted that Pecos
valley beets would excel in sugar all
others heretofore produced on the face
OF the earth. And results of tests made
recently prove the actual truth of every
assertion set forth by the learned chem
lists. Beets will probably average 16 per
cent sugar for the entire product of the
valley. On account of this extreme rich
ness the working up of the beets will be
less rapid than if they were poor in SUI
gar. The beet sugar machinery of all
countries has been made for beets of
from II to Is per cent, Pecos valley beets
not having been taken into considera-
ton. Eventually the machinery will be
made for Pecos valley beets. The work
OF manufacture has been fully described
heretofore.

CONVICTED OF MURDER.
For second Time Jose Chayes v Cha.
YES Has Been Found Guilty of MUIR
der in the First Degree.

The Optic of yesterday says: Tht
jury in the Jose Chaves y Chaves murder
case returned the following verdict last
evening:
In the district court, of the 4th judicis
district, of the territory of New Mex
loo, sitting in and for the county Of
San Miguel.
Territory of New Mexico,
Jose Chavez y Chavez.
We, the jury, find the defendant, Jose
Chavez Chavez, guilty of murder in the
first degree, as he stands charged in the
Indictment. JUAN ORTEaA, Foreman.
The verdict is certainly in accord with
the evidence, and meets the approval OF
the people. Chief Justice Smith in
structed the Jury to bring In verdict Of
murder in the first degree, if they rem.
dered verdict of guilty at all. This lie
criticised by some, though if Chavez il
guilty, it is certainly in the first degree
and there seems to be no reason why g
jury should be allowed to return YER
dict not in accord with the evidence. A
new trial will of course be asked for, and
if not granted, the case will no doubt bs
appealed. 1t is to be hoped that thit
man Chavez, reeking with the guilt OIL
premeditated murder, as everyon.
knows he is, will have Justice melted on
to him, without the expense of another
trial, adds the Optic.
1t will be remembered by readers o
the New MEXICAN that Jose Chavez
Chavez was convicted of murder in tn,
first degree at former term of the dis
trict court in Las Vegas; that he wal
formally sentenced to be hanged b,
Chief Justice Smith; that he appealed t.
the territorial supreme court, and ths
the case was remanded for new trial OF
technical grounds. 1t is probable that
this second conviction will stick.

As Northern farmers become better
acquainted with the COW pea and its
advantages, they are likely to largely
use it in conjunction with and partial
substitution for corn as a fodder crop
1t is much richer than corn in nitro
genous nutrition, and that IS always the
kind that is most costly and hard to
procure. Besides. the COW pea gets It's
nitrogen as clover does. from air in the
soil. 1t is one Of the leguminous order
of plants. all of which have this power.
The chief objection to growing COW
peas in the North is the difficulty In
ripening their seed. One or two kinds
will rlpen in New England in favora-
bic season and IL put In early. But we
can procure the seed cheaply from the
South. and If farmers found they could
never ripen its seed, they could still
afford to grow some every year to feed
in alienation with fodder corn or to
put In the silo. II IS not, however, so
good for the sllo as corn, as the nitro
genous material Of which II IS composed
heats too rapidly. making 1t as hard to
save sweet as clover ensilage Is.

The water pipe enters near the top OF
the tank, which places the valve out Of
water. thus relieving it Of all danger
from rust or the collection Of sediment.
However, where necessary, the pipe
may enter nearer the bottom OF the
tank. and II the valve is kept clear the
device will still serve its purpose. An
other point in its favor Is that. If de-
sired, the valve can be closed just as
effectually when the tank is one-fourth
full as when filed to the brim. The
lower half Of the long, jointed lever
connecting the valve and float has a
shorter one attached to It, the upper
end of the latter having a number Of
holes in It. BY having a hole in the
upper half Of the jointed lever and
using a pin, the angle at the Joint can
be changed at Will Making it as large
as possible will necessitate the float be-
ing lifted near the top Of the tank be-
fore the valve is entirely closed, but by
decreasing the angle the valve will be
closed while the float is still near the
bottom. A sealed can or bottle makes
a good float. A board or block Of wood
soon becomes soaked, and in conse-
quence its lifting power is greatly
diminished.
