trail committee meeting but is also
much interested in the coming fair,
and readily asserts San Juan county
will this year, at Albuquerque, outdo
any thing of the kind ever attempted
before. Fifty freighters, driving from
four to six horses, with trace wagons,
have already volunteered to make the
trip overland, laden with fruits, grains
and vegetables. All of the leading
growers of the Animas and San Juan
valleys are preserving samples of their
best products for the exhibition, the
Hyde Exploring Expedition promising
free transportation.
At least twenty-five Of the most
prominent growers with their families
have signified their intentions OF ac-
companying the exhibit, so that by the
time of departure fully one hundred
wagons will be in line.
This caravan will leave Pennington
October 8, on the same day Winslow
Wetherell with probably 200 hundred
picked Navajo Indians, will leave Two
Gray Hills, trading post sixty-fye
southwest of Pennington; and two
days later, October 10, join the fruit
exhibit at Pueblo Bonito, where Rich
ard Wetherell, named by the Indians
"Anasasa," will assume command of
probably the most spectacular gather
ing OF frontiersmen of modern days.
Last year the Indians were in some
doubt OF how they would be treated
in the Hub city, and what would be ex-
pected of them. .his year, however,
it is different. Those who attended the
festivities returned TO the reservation
and Immediately began planning for
return visit this fan, with the result
that the whole reservation is now de-
sirous of coming.
Besides the fire dances and great
five mile relay race a series of chicken
pulling contests will be given, which
is one of the most exciting and inter
esting events, strictly an Indian sport,
ever seen beyond their own confines.
From one to two hundred young
bucks on horse engage in the game.

pI oper advertising is done, many peo-
pie will cross the continent to attend
the fair, and predict that within three
years more the New Mexico fair will
surpass the attractions Of the New Or

as the most typical sporting event, oc-

WHAT FIGURES SHOW.
Vsose Countries where Most spirits
Are Used Are the Greatest
beer Consumers.

A very interesting and highly sug
gestive study of the drink problem
is presented in a late number of tho
Fortnightly Review. London, by J. Holt
Schooling. a professional statisticiar
of 20 years experience in tabulating
the reports made by governments. So
large a proportion of the revenue of
states is now raised by tax upon
wines and liquors that IL is not easy
20 misrepresent the facts. We have
not estimates" or impressions" but
official data prepared by appointees of
the governments whose duty IL is TO
see that each product is duly taxed.
And from these reports. Mr.. SCHOOL,
ing clearly shows that the more the
use of malt or fermented liquors is
encouraged the more rapid becomes
the consumption Of rum, whisky. gin
and brandy. This destroys the theory
upon which the German beer-bouts
have been recently introduced into the
schools OF Boston and Cambridge. In
the year 1900 the beer consumption Of
Germany was 27.5 gallons per capita;
i'm America. 1913. OF course we ought
20 find that the beer "drove out" dis
titled liquors. On the contrary, VIZ
discover that the German demanded
10 gallons of spirits per capita TO the
IL consumed in America. In France,
some OF those wine-producing coun-
tries where" travellers assure us,
there is no drunkenness" there were
consumed 1854 gallons of wine per cap
ita, and more spirits than In Germany,
nearly twice as much as in the United
States. These facts are just as patent
as those of population. or import and
export; but nevertheless the profess
sors and tutors who have n weakness
for mugs and bottles will go on as
surfing the innocent public that the
only way to keep boy from whisky
is to fill him up with beer. Mr.. School

the present commercial supremacy Of
America to the relative sobriety of
