number Of farms given in the report
on agriculture for the same year.
The total acreage of farm land
has iuctuated greatly from decade
to decade and is now about eighteen
times as great as in 1850. and more
than six times as great as in 1890.
The variation in the area of inn
proved land has been less marked,
the increase since 1890 being 63,737
acres, or 24.7 per cent. AS this
increase is much less than that in
the total farm area, the per cent. of
farm land improved shows a de-
cided decrease since 1890 It is this
circumstance, together with the in-
crease in the average size Of farms,
which bears out the statement that
the raising Of livestock is rapidly
increasing in importance, and that,
as a consequence, large additions
are being made to the area used for
grazing purposes. At the same
time, the great reduction in the per-
centage of improved land may be
in some degree due to a stricter in
depreciation of that term by the r2th
census.
In 1900 the value of farm prop
erty was nearly seventeen times as
great as in 1850, and over three
times as great as III 1890. With the
exception of the decade from 1860
to 1870, Arizona being created out
OF New Mexico in 1868, theincrease
in the values of the different forms
OF farm property have been contin-
uous. Remarkable increases in the
last decade are due, in part, to
more detailed enumeration in 1000
than in 1890.
The San Juan County index. (Aztec, N.M.) 1890-19??, 1902-05-30
statistical Showing

A census bulletin was issued last
week treating ont agriculture in
New Mexico. The statistics given
are very interesting as well as the
notes accompanying them, The
bulletin says;
"New Mexico forms part Of the
great table land which is the foun-
dation Of the Rocky and Sierra
Mountain ranges. The territory
slopes gently southwark, spreading
into a broad, level, treeless plain,
apparently barren.
THE land produces a variety of
native grasses, the most common
and valuable being the mesquite.
This grows during the rainy season
in July and August and ripens in
the fall, dries on its stalk and fur
hishes a luxuriant and nutritious
forage, This cheap food supply
and the tnildness of winter render
stock raising especially profitable,
"The number of farms June
1900, was more than three times as
great as that reported in 1880 It is
probable that the gain of 1883
farms or 176,2 per cent, between
1890 and 1900, exaggerates the
actual growth in that decade, owing
to the fact that in 1890 many small
farms and ranges operated by ma
tives were not enumerated. The
statement that the nth census was
defective in this respect is con-
6rmed by reference to the Farms
and Homes volume of that census,
which shows that in 1890 there
were o,5I8 farm families in New
Mexico, or 5000 more than the

also allays the pain.
Or the following may be used:
Boracic Acid, fifteen grains.
Morphine Sulfate, three grains.
Water, one ounce.
If the ulcer refuses to heal it may be
stimulated by touching it with a solution
of silver nitrate, five grains, to one ounce
of water.
The opacity of the eye will gradually
disappear, but it can be materially hast
ened by the use of three grains potassium
iodide to the ounce of water dropped into
the eye two or three times daily.
To put the medicine into the eye use a
small eye dropper Place the hand that
holds the dropper firmly against the head
of the animal so that the hand will fol-
low all OF its movements and so prevent
any accident of injuring the eye with the
dropper. The medicine should always be
put in at the outer angle of the eye as
the lids commence to close at this angle
and will therefore force the fluid over
the surface of the eye.
This is probably the first time that this
disease has been observed in our state.

Peculiar Disease in Cattle.

EeCuIIdI OlhedSe Ill OdJtle.
The following press bulletin pre-
pared by DR.. S. B. Nelson of the
college, deals with the disease, con-
tagious keratitis, which is affecting
cattle in various parts of the state
The Veterinary Department has re-
ceived during the past few weeks numer-
Gus reports from Douglas, Lincoln, Whit
man and Walla Walla counties, relative
to peculiar disease affecting the eyes of
cattle, in some cases the affection being
so serious that it resulted in the destruc-
ton of the eyesight.
Investigations made to determine the
nature of the disease show it to be iden-
tical with Contagious Keratitis--Contag-
ious Opthalmia-which has been observed
IN the middle eastern states for some
years past.
SYMPTOMS.
The first symptoms noticed is swelling
of the eyelids and flow of tears over the
face. The animal will also try to rub the
eye on some object, generally its front
leg, showing the presence of an irritation
or itching. These premontory symptoms
are followed by true Inflammation of
the cornea.
Upon close examination of the eve
1t is seen that the disease has its begin
fba 1F
the clear part of the eye. Near the center
OF the cornea there is found small Bills
ter projecting slightly from the rest of the
eye. A little later this blister breaks,
d1scharging its contents, and forms
ragged-edged ulcer Toward this ulcer
the bloodvessels radiate, giving a very
characteristic appearance to the eve. AS
the disease continues, the front of the
cornea becomes opaque-having scum
over it, due to the dying and passing off of
the outer layers of the cells forming the
cornea. If the disease assumes a light
form, the ulcer heals leaving scar that
is hardly noticeable after the eve has
cleared. However, if it should be a severe
attack, the ulcer may slough through the
cornea and cause the destruction of the
eye.
The period of incubation, the period
that the disease is i'll the animals system
without the symptoms being visible, is
probably from three to seven days. The
full course of Keratitis is from three to
SIX weeks, depending on the severity of
the attack. All cattle, both young and
old, are subject to it.
TREATMENT.
Isolation, the separation of the dis
eased animal from the well ones is of
great Importance, and should be prac-
ticed whenever it is practicable.
Treatment has proven quite satisfactory.
II possible, the affected animal should be
placed in the dark as the light is often
painful to the eyes. We would recon-
mend the following treatment out of the
many that have come under our observa
ton:
Drop into the eye two or three times
every day, morning, noon and night, a
few drops of the following eye-wash:
Zinc Sulfate, one grain.
Morphine Sulfate, three grains.
Water, one ounce.
This wash is slightly astringent, and
