Immunity From Contagious Diseases.

During November there We're % cases
of smallpox reported in Denver. How
many were not reported is impossible
to- say. In the same month there W
II cases of chickenpox, so cases of scar
let fever, 10 cases of diphtheria, II cases
of typhoid fever, 8 cases of measles, 3
cases of whooping cough, and s cases
of e~rysipelas reported to the health Off
GERS of hat city. Far be it from the
New Mexican to gloat over Denver's
misfortune, but it cannot help to call
the attention of faultfinders to the fact
that Santa Fe and other New Mexico
cities are freer from contagious diseas-
es as we'll as from lung and throat dis
eases than Denver or any other Colo
RADIO or any eastern town or city. This
towns may not deserve for their w
sake, for it must be admitted that
some city authorities 10 not do as much
for sanitation and cleanliness as they
should or as other towns do, but this
immunity must be credited to the an
septic qualities of the climate and
soil of this territory. If three or four
mild cases of smallpox occur in Santa
Fe, for instance, in the psring months,
it is heralded abroad as an epidemic,
and healthseekers are warned to stay
away, yet in Denver and in the health
seekers own town, perhaps. % cases of
smallpox are reported in the course of
an ordinary month and nothing is
thought of it. With proper sanitation
and cleanliness, New Mexico towns
would not know what contagious dis
ease is, and smallpox would be driven
out never to reappear.

DOES WITHOUT DAM.
How One Farmer Avoids Irrigating
Crops.

OioPS
Dona Ana County Republican,
The recent years of drouth in the Me
silla valley should emphasize several
things. One is. the necessity of winter
irrigation, and the other important
things-using water to the best adVan-
tage, intensive farming, and better I'LL
age. During the time last summer
when orchards, gardens N fields IN
this vicinity We're suffering from
drouth, a ranchman further down the
river stated that as far as he was per-
sonally interested he did not need any
water and would not suffer from lack OF
it for some time. The reason was founo
in good tillage and heavy winter lrrlga-
tion. There is almost invariably some
DELAY in getting water out of the river
on account of repairing the miserable
sand dams in the river. This difficulty
will never be obviated until the ditch is
extended % Selden, where a rock dlke
across the river throws the under
ground flow to the surface. AL THIS
point the river is never dry, so we are
told. The cost of such extension WOULD
not exceed the extra fatigue work done
on the ditch in two years, it mas peeh
estimated. Ditch extension, heavy WIN
fer irrigation, earlier seeding, n good
tillag in the Mesilla valley will pro-
duce wonderful results for the present
area under cultivation. These with a
small pumping plant for accessory lfrl-
GA finn on small areas will, we believe
fully solve the irrigation problem fo1
this valley. If we are wrong IN TINS we
hone somebody will correct us.

The Presidents Message.

The presidents message is to be ad-
mired from a number Of view points.
Its modesty is striking. He takes no
credit for himself from the great Re-
publican victory of November; he does
not brag about what he has done as an
individual; he does not boast of the acts
of his administration; in speaking to
congress, in reviewing the events of the
past year, and stirring events they
were, in recommending future action
and legislation he forgets all about him.
self; he remembers that in a certain
sense he is only the agency for execut-
ing the laws, the will of the people, the
great trust imposed upon him. And yet
he was the leading force, the determin-
ing factor in the happenings of his adj
ministration. True, many events came
as an act Of Providence, but the man
ner In which he met them, shows him to
be the greatest president since Lincoln.
His modesty makes one love him as a
man and his utter absence of self con-
seriousness, marks the difference be-
tween d truly great ildii oiHu q Ho
foisted into prominence by circumstan-
ces of other peoples making.
The message, though long it may
seem, contains no unnecessary ver-
biage. 1t states clearly, s~uccinctly,
what has been done and what remains
to be done in governing this great ma
ton. The short and eloquent reference
to the prosperity of the nation, the glor-
ious deeds Of Its people and the crate
fulness that the spirit as well as. the
letter of the constitution is observed
more closely than at amy time since 1t
was adopted, are classic and great ut
Nothing Of imperialism, or
of the oppressor toward the new terri
tory of the United States, in the mes
sage. It breathes a spirit of Christian
kindness, Of American love for liberty
and IL It's spirit Is followed, 1t will give
the new possessions an ideal govern
ment such as no other part of the world
possesses. The message is as great as
the man who wrote 1t and must be con-
sidered, especially coming at this
time, as one of the greatest state papers
ever delivered to congress.

Building Storage Reservoirs,

Representative Schafroth of Colora-
do. has introduced a bill in congress for
the construction of reservoirs in the
arid lands of the west and for the dis
posal of the public lands reclaimed
thereby. In speaking of the bill, he
said: II have made a deep study C.
this subject and I am positive tiat
four-ffths of the water of the western
states not only goes to waste, but in its
wild, uncontrolled course down the riv-
er beds causes destruction, ruination,
want and restitution in the southland.
The vast empire of the west needs only
the flow of water upon 1t to convert 1t
into a veritable garden of Eden. h
plan for this work is not to place 1t in
the hands of a few, but to bring it I'M
der the ruling of the homestead law"
Mr.. Schafroth's bill is a step in the
right direction and congress will sooner
or later take action in accordance with
its provisions. But it will scarcely do
so at ibis short session. Mr.. Schafroth
also has the misfortune to be a Demo-
crat and to come from a Democratic
state. 1t lies in the nature of politics
that bills introduced by representatives
from the winning side, representing
constituencies which are in accord
with the administration and majority
of congress-, are apt to receive more ia
yorable consideration than those intro
duced by the opposing side. A Dill
framed on those lines should therefore
also be introduced by a Republican
leader. The friends of the arid sections
who are also the friends of the whole
nation. should leave no stone unturnec
to have 1t enacted into a law before an
other year has passed. The work pro
posed in such a bill will be the creates
and the most glorious ever undertaken
by this or any other nation.

NEW MEXICO ONYX MINES.
Are Among the Best Deposits In All the
World.
(El Paso Herald.)

IL "So
Among the varied resources OF TINS
section of the United States, especially
in mines, there is not n of more value
or more interest to the community and
he investor than the wonderful onyx
deposits of the region near Alamogordo.
Not much has been said about these
deposits in the newspapers, and the
work of development has been proceed
ing quietly. But the fact is that within
a few miles from Alamogordo there lies
one of the richest and largest deposits
of commercial onyx in the world.
The deposits are practically inexhaus-
tible. As to the quality. experts In the
United States and Europe have unani-
mously pronounced it to be of the finest
grade, and of a coloring so unusual as
to stand in a class by itself. The color
is a dark brown, shading into ivory
pearl, and wine tints. Its formation ad-
mits of am infinite number of arrange
ments of the grain, in dressing n mn
ishing for ornamental work, since no
two cuts or faces, even of the same spe-
cimens, are eve like.
So far as known, one company prac-
tically controls the onyx district, the
Caballero Onyx Mining Company. VI
the company the Denver Mining Repor-
ter says:
THE samples of ony sent by the
Cabellero Mining Company to Germany
have been pronounced very fine. Devel-
opment of these deposits on a large
scale will at once begin
