Colorado has a municipal league COM
posed of the officials of the towns and
cities of the state and its purpose is to
discuss the best methods of municipal
government and to obtain laws at the
hands Of the general assembly which
shall the better conduce to the more
efficient and economical conduct of city
affairs. New Mexico too has its NUM-
cipal problems, the chief of which is how
to make a little city income go a long
ways and how to increase that income
without putting new tax burdens upon
the Taxpayers. municipal league with
an annual convention should be organ
lied in New Mexico. If it wouldn't teach
how to govern a city, it would at least
give hints of how not to manage city
affairs.

A spring lamb killed and dressed in
New Zealand has been sent to New York
to demonstrate that frozen mutton can
be shipped in good condition q distance
of 1900 miles. The mutton arrived in
New York good and solid despite its
journey of ITO days. This experiment
is of great interest to the mutton raisers
of New Mexico, for it suggests to them
that new markets will soon be open for
mutton from this country. As that will
certainly increase the demand for sheep,
prices will oar higher and indirectly it
will even affect the price of wool, for the
more sheep are sent to market as mutton,
the less will become the number of sheep
to be sheared and wool will be cores
less of a drug on the market
but will bring better prices.

Fourth class postmasters do not take
kindly to free rural delivery. 1t cuts
down their incomes and keeps the
crowds from coming to their store which
they generally run in connection with
their postofice. This is rather unfor-
tunate but the advance of civilization
demands sacrifices even from Office
holders. BY present indications New
Mexico postmasters need not fear the
competition of free rural delivery, for
the appropriation for that purpose is
being exhausted by establishing such
delivery in other states, besides New
Mexico has not many rural communities
so close together and so populous as to
make the establishment of free rural
practicable or advisable.

A Useful Institution.

There was a time when the American
farmer sneered at the work being done
for him by the department of agricul-
ture. He thought 1t was an institution
that made votes for congressman by
giving them seeds to distribute. He
had somewhat CT a hilarious contempt
for the scientific farmer of the expert
ment station. But he knows different
today. He knows that 5000 employees
of the department are working for his
benefit. He found that the scientists
were protecting him against fraud in
commercial fertilizers. He discovered
that they could save him time and
money in making experiments. Now he
is going to them for advice depending
upon their counsel. The department
of agriculture has discovered remedies
for diseases of. wheat, corn, cotton.
fruit trees and garden crops and told
the farmer how to apply them. 1t has
taught fruit growers how to care for
and improve the orange, pine apple
and other fruits; how to pack fruits for
shipment, and the secret of propogating
the fig. 1t is constantly hunting up
new crops, furnishes him with seeds
and directs him to a market. 1t has
shown him that jute can be raised with
profit in the south AMI flax equal to
Ireland's on Puget sound. 1t tells what
crop best suits his land and teaches him
how to Judge the fitness of soils for diff
ferent sorts of vegetation. 1t warns
him of the appearance of dangerous
weeds and noxious insects, and tells him
how to combat them. The departments
activities do not end there. 1t separ-
ates the farmers diseased from his
healthy cattle and puts upon the latter
a mark which assures the highest price
in both domestic and foreign markets.
1t tells him what kinds of butter and
cheese are desired in the several mar
kets and how to pack these products.
1t connsels him about sheep and goats,
poultry and bees, and tells him how to
raise calves on skinned milk. 1t has
decreased the number of forest fires,
stimulated interest in forest preserva-
ton, and told the farmer how to man.
age his woodlot. 1tinstructs the farmer
how to make good roads at the lowest
cost, and is gradually convincing him
of the value of such roads. 1t warns
him of the approach of storms and tells
him the best way to save weather dam
aged crops and live stock. 1t is at work
for the farmer all the time.
For New Mexico, too, the department
of agriculture, through its experiments
in irrigation and in crops especially
adapted to this territory, is doing great
work. The bulletins issued by the ex-
detrimental station and its sub-stations
in this territory are of incalculable value
to the agriculturist and horticu!tlrist in
the southwest.
All this important work is done by
the department of agriculture at an
outlay of only s. 5000, 900 a year. Out of
that amount, the weather bureau, whose
storm warnings have saved thousands
of lives and millions of dollars worth of
shipping and other property is also
maintained. 1t is indeed a profitable
investment the American people make
by devoting So, 200, 900 every year to the
support of the department of agricul-
tlIre.

DEPTH OF MINERAL VEINS.
No Limit to the Depth at Which Gold Ore
NAV Be Found.
Denver Republican,

denver Republlcan.)
"The oldest scince is the newest so far
as human understanding goes" said H.
r. Corson, of Atlanta, who is regarded
as one of the most Industrious geological
students in that state. "Wha we do
not know about geology so far trans
cends our present knowledge, that we
NAV be said to be only on the threshold
of this s%tupendous department of scien-
tific knowledge, embracing the very
foundations of time.
81 have just returned from Virginia
City, New, where my p]reconceived
ideas received y serious shock from
the discovery of gold bearing ore in the
lower workings of the Consolidated Cali.
fornia and Virginia mine. l heard of
the discovery and went to see for my.
self. You know it has been held by
many biologists. as well as practical
miners, that gold veins pinch out a
few hundred feet below the surface.
This has been disproved in your
California mine of Gilpin county, where
good ore is found at the depth OF 1000
feet, and the recent discovery or the
Comstock lode, not only clinches the
idea, but presents a new phase of the
deposition of gold ores at great depths.
The Transvaal mines were the first to
furnish a practical demonstration that
there is no known limit to the depth to
which veins of gold-bearing ore extend.
The Comstock veins, different in char.
acter, have shown that there is a steady
increase in the proportion of gold values
as depth is gained. The discovery was
made in upraising from the 1,95O-foot
level.
"When the so-called bonanza, was
first struck below the 1, 300-foot level in
the Consolidated California and Vir-
ginia silver predominated in the ore to
the extent Of two-thirds of its value.
Where the second ore discovery was
made in that mine on the 1850 and L.
75O-foot levels in 1886 the silver value
vas less predominant, decreasing gra-
dually as depth was attained, until the
last development on the 1,S00-foot level
shows that the gold value of the ore
is nearly one-half of the total bullion
returns.
"This gradual increase of gold value
as depth is attained is, therefore, cor
roborative of the theory that the great
Comstock assure was filled when the
mineral of the lode was in a liquid or
matter state, and the greater specific
gravity of the gold would it to
settle at a greater depth than silver.

Russia expects to place an order for
5000, 900 tons of coal in the United
States. Other European nations are
boarding coal in anticipation of IA gen.
eral war. The British coal industry is
paralyzed by the coal railway strike in
Wales, and it looks as if Europe would
experience a general coal famine that
will meal a boom to the coal industry in
the United States. New Mexico should
share in the boom, for the territory can
provide the coal If American and Euro
pean capitalists supply the capital with
which to open and develop the coal
mines of the country.

A Denver psychologist who asserts
that all ghosts are optical illusions has
promised to show a Denver audience any
kind of ghost that it wants TO see.
There is certain to be q call for the free
silver ghost, the militarism bugaboo,

t~roglodyte. A psychologist who can
show spooks to order should be in the

recently found above tie Consolidate
California and Virginia 1850 foot level

recently found above tie Consolidated
California and Virginia 1850 foot level.
1t Is therefore, reasonable to assume
that had the vast quartz belt of which
the diamond drill demonstrated the
existence on the 3.3OO-foot level been
thoroughly explored a large body of ore
carrying free gold might have been dis
covered. But at the date when deep
mining on the lode was abandoned
quartz not showing black sulphuret ore
was considered worthless. When the
Observation-Disclosures joint shaft,
known as the Combination. had been
sunk to the 3,1O0 foot level it cut the
apex of a body Of white quartz lying
next to what was supposed to be the
footwall Of the lode. This quartz body
was evidently the southern continuation
of that found or the Consolidated Cali
fornia and Virginia.
"These discoveries are of the greatest
Importance both from a geological and
commercial standpoint. They introduce
a new element in gold mining, and may
result in reopening the Comstock mines
IN q grander scale than ever. 1t is
needless to say that the new develop.
ments in the famous lode will be OF
absorbing interest to mi%neralogists and
miners all over the world.
