PLEADED GUILTY.
Jacobo Flores Sentenced to 81 Years in the
Penitentiary for Murder.

Monday afternoon Jacobo Flores ac-
cused of the murder of A. J. DeMueles,
the Turquoise King" pleaded guilty to
murder in the second degree before
Judge Parker at district court at Las
Cruces. He was sentenced to 81 years
in the penitentiary, The crime for
which Flores was sentenced was com
mitted about a year ago at the De-
Mueles turquoise mines in the Jarllas
| DeMueleS was a native of Genesee coun-
ty of New York and was only go years
old when murdered He came west as
soldier In the regular army. Eight
years ago he located at Las Cruces and
devoted himself to mining and prospect
ing.
| He located his turquoise mine in the
Jarillas when that section was one of
the most isolated spots in the southwest,
and when with the exception of Oliver
Lees well, there was no water to be had
there. Several other parties had locat-
ed the mine before but had abandoned it
in despair of ever being able to work it
under such circumstances.
| DeMueles, however, held on to it BY
doing his assessment work every year,
and making living as best he could
the rest of the time until the building of
the Ell Paso e. Northeastern gave him
the opportunity of developing and ship
ping his product, and he found himself
on the point of becoming millionaire
when he was stricken down by the as
sassln.
The murderer, Jacob Flores. was
one of his employees, and had worked
for him for long time. At one time
| DeMueles had some difficulties
with parties who it is alleged laid claim
to his mine, and he armed himself and
his friends and employees to guard the
place against an anticipated attack.
Flores took an active part in the pro-
| ceedings. Flores claimed that DeMueles
owed him wages which he refused to
pay at the time.
De Mueles was eating his breakfast
when the dispute began and was un-
armed and defenceless. One word fol-
lowed another until both became on
ragged and the turquoise king started to
arise when Flores drew a pistol and
fired. The bullet struck De Mueles in
the head killing him instantly.
Flores was Immediately seized by 9th.
er employees at the mine and turned over
to the officers and taken to Las Cruces
to jail. Flores claimed he thought De
MueleS was about to attack him with
the table knife when he shot. Flores
pleaded guilty of murder in the second
degree upon advice of his attorney.

Wool and Clothes.

In letter to The American Sheen
Breeder S. S. Cole of New York says:
Having occasion to buy a suit of
clothes for boy, l viii give you few
straws on wool. The merchant threw
down a number of suits ranging from
50 TO S14. He then brought forward
one at IS which was superior In looks.

thing about it, here might be an object

highest and lowest priced suits. Well,
l found that one could pull a thread
three or four inches in length of long,
staple, strong wool from the best one.
From the other the yarn came out
about One-quarter inch long and would
break into one-eighth to one-sixteenth.
etc. Please don't ask me which suit /

and wool grower will buy for his boy
(who has been a shepherd, sheep dog
and saddle pony combined) such a shod-
dy outfit for his best suit, some sensible

but from all points of the compass until

Over burdened
Women.

Many man sees his wife bend and
tug at burdens that strain the back and
the heart alike, without any idea of the
outrage. Children follow In too quick
succession to allow the mother time to
recuperate. The womanly organs become
displaced, there are facilitating, disagree
able drains, with the added pain of in
famed or liberated parts. In this condi-
ton the woman bravely tries to carry her
household load, afraid to take the rest she
needs lest a meal will be late. No wonder
she Is pale, weak, wretched, surly of tenn
per and snappish of tongue. She would
Be false to nature if she were anything else

of whom this woman is the type. And for
such women no help Is so sure, so wonder

WIRED HOG TROUGH.

OF protein is nearly the same, but when
1t comes to the ash or bone forming
material the per cent in the bran is
very much the greater. There is So
per cent of ash in bran, in middlings
80 per cent. In ton of bran we find
116 pounds Of bone material, In ton
of niiddlings rs pounds. The tables at
hand give the manurial value of bran
at fraction over S13 per ton, but we
are unable to find the manurial value
of middlings. 1t is probably two-thirds
that of bran. This is strong point in
favor of the bran for feed as compared
with middlings.
The pig does not take kindly to bran
alone, fed dry or as slop Middlings
alone used to make slop do not mix
well and are unpleasant to handle on
this account. By the use of bran and
middlings mixed the Objectionable fea-
lures to the feeder and the pig are OBJ
Waited
Considering these points in favor of
the bran, we think 1t would be advis-
able for the farmer to cast aside his
prejudice against it and when he buys
middlings purchase an equal weight of
bran to mix with it. Then, if the pigs
are fed where they have range over
the clover and pasture fields, at least
three-fOurths Of the feed consumed viii

nure- These times it does not pay to
overlook this feature in feeding.

Mixers and Milking.

There seems to be a great deal of dis
cussiOn among the farmers in regard to
the subject of good mixers, says The
Rural New Yorker. The remark that
1t is now almost impossible to find good
mixers is quite frequently heard among
dairymen. This is a great mistake.

as good mixers in this and other locali-
ties as there ever were, if not better
The farmer who depends ON day hands
for his help. as a general rule, is the
one who complains most bitterly in re-
gard to this matter The average man
who is hired by the day win not milk

stays ON the farm continually listening
for the sound of the o'clock whistle.
one who does not go to town every
night, | find a good mixer A COW
should be MIXED as quickly as possible.
A good mixer can milk 12 cows an
hour The muscles of the forearm,
wrists and hands of good mixer must
be well developed. Therefore. as rule,
women are poor mixers. They require
too much time to milk COW. The evil
resulting from this practice is that the
cows do not readily give down their
milk Some farmers expect man to
do too much of this work. The number
of cows that man milks should de-
pend ON the amount and nature Of other
labor that he performs. As rule, do
not believe that a man should be 81
