The talks of Prof Parsons on "Litera-
ture," "U. S. History" and ''Geogra-
ply" were all of an interesting charac-
ter. In order 10 read intelligentiy he
said it was necessary to know something
in regard to the personality OF the au-

in order to properly enter into the au-
thor's thought and absorb his feeling
Prof Parsons read number of selec-

Directors Convention.

Sixty directors attended the Eighth
Annual Convention of Somerset County
School Directors, which convened in the
new school building on Wednesday
morning. Hon. w. II. Sanner delivered
the opening address. Among other sub
jects discussed were the following: ''The
Selection of Teachers ta) What Qualifi-
cations Should be Considered? (b) Is it
Wise 10 Select Home Teachers Only ?"
"The Duties and Responsibilities Of Di-
rectors, (" "The Proper Use and Care of
Free Text Books" "The Township High
School" DIR. Schaefer addressed the
Convention Wednesday afternoon, and in
the course of his remarks urged the di
rectors 10 exercise proper care in pur-
chasing school supplies and school appa-
ratus, As extravagance in these partica
lars will likely have tendency to de-
crease the school appropriation. He also
explained the method of distributing the
school appropriation under the new law
aud favored establishing township high
schools. One Of the interesting debates
in the Convention was in regard 10 COM
pens4ting directors for attending meet
ings OF school boards. A namber of
those present spoke strongly in favor of
such a system.

CHURCH NEWS.

Evening services at the churches
now begin OF 7:3O.
The Catholic church Of Rocky Ford
is now in charge Of Rev. Father Brinker
Rev. J. H. Gill, the now pastor Of the
NJ. E. Church, preached last Sunday
morning and evening and made a very
favorable impression the members and
congregation.
Lust week the Enterprise announced
that Rev. j. H. Gill would not come to
the Rocky Ford M. Z. church but was
arranging transfer with Nebraska
minister. This announcement WIS made
on what we deemed the best OF authority
but was nevertheless great error. As
soon as he received notice OF the appoint
ment Mr.. Gill at once prepared to come
to Rocky Ford and he had no thought OF
making an exchange with Nebraska
conference. The Misunderstanding was
due to letter which failed to reach ite
destination and to nm indistinct and mis-
leading telegram. Rev. Gill is here to
stay, has received hearty welcome from
the membership and the year promises
to be prosperous one for the church.

FRUIT GROWERS ATTENTION.
Important Letter From Orchard In
spectOr Berry.


spectOr Berry.
have received the appointment OF
fruit inspector Of Otero county for this
year and desire to state a few facts to
You. As it is too late to spray for some
Of the insects, the season being far ad-
yanced, the growth so rapid, I deem it
best to wait until the growth has ceased
for the season before making thorough
inspection Of the orchards.
One Of the most important things I
wish to bring before You is, II you cut on
the blight, burn it. Hon. j. h. Crowley
says he cut of some blight and piled It
up, and the consequence was it biighted
three rows in his young orchard by the
wind blowing over it and through the
orchard, Mr.. Clark, I learn, had a sim.
liar experience. BY all means, BURN
YOUR BLIGHT. have one tree in
nv orchard which had one small limb
blighted. I cut it ont and going back
in ten days found two limbs blighted;
cut them out below all marks OF dis
ease, and in ten days more found four
limbs blighted on tho same tree. Now
shall dig II up and burn it.
desire to call your attention to sec
ton seven OF the law as passed by the
general assembly OF 1893, which sets
forth that it is the duty OF the inspector
to make inspections OF orchards, nurser-
les or trees, fruit packing houses. store
houses, sulesrooms or other places with
in his jurisdiction. and il found infected
with insects or disease injurious to fruit,
trees, vines or bushes, he shall notify the
owner, or person in charge or possession
of the infested premises, and said persons
must eradicate or destroy the insects,
pests or disease, under the direction OF
the inspector. AL such infected or
chards or places are declared nuisances,
and any person refusing or failing to
abate any infected orchard, etc. within
the time specified by the inspector, 1t be-
comes the duty Of the inspector to pro-
coed to abate the nuisance ss he may see
fit, The expense shall be first paid by
the county, upon the filing OF proper
vouchers, and shall become lien on the
property or premises from which SAID IN
lection has been removed. Such lien
may be forclosed by action against the
property or premises, the action peing
brought by the district attorney, % IN the
name and benefit of the county, When
the property is sold, the proceeds shall
be paid into the county treasury to salts
fy the lien and costs, the overplus, II any.
to be paid to the owner, on the order OF
the court.
Orchardists will note TINT this law is
very strict and far-reaching in cases
where fruit growers and others decline
to clear their orchards and premises OF
injurious insects or disease.
1 desire to have it understood that the
fruit growers are my friends, and do
not wish to work any hardship on any
one, but iu this fair county Of ours, with
such good prospects, we need to work
together to make n success OF ridding
the county OF this terrible pest.

Rocky Ford Did Her Best.

There were thousands Of visitors at
Rocky Ford yesterday. It was the
largest crowd that was ever fed on that
delicious fruit-the watermelon-that
has made this town famous. For the
first time in the history of Watermelon
Day, the big pile Of melous entirely dis
appeared either eaten on the grounds
or carried away, for melons are free to
everybody on this day. Rocky Ford
certainly did her best to handle the
large throng OF visitors and everyone
was treated well.-Trinidad News.
