The School Fund.
CONDUCTED by the ". .. t, U.


"Missouri has tho largest school fund
OF any state in the union" "Missouri
docs not have cent OF school fund. "
How often in the last2 2 years have we
heard these two contradictory state
mrnts. Our papers have been full Of
them. Political speakers lave given
them En important plnce in their
speeches. And after all this discussion
no one seems tn be tho wiser about the
school fund. As the newspapers and
other agencies have failed to enlighten
the people, itmay seem presumptuous
for Is & L U advocate to mention the
subject. Ans yet something very in
teresting may lie suggested from its
consideration. All agree tho school
fund few years ago was over million
dollars and it took over 40 years to ac-
emulate this Hne fund.
No wonder that you, my Democratic
friend and my Republican friend, bo-
come excited whom discussing it. Tho
| fund is worthy Of your earnest consid-
Grafton. -Four million dollars would
make fiue school fund. But did you
ever stop TO think, my Democratic and
Republican friends, that il you woIld
join hands 10 drive the liquor traffic
from our great State you would
save to our people a larger sum than
that in 6 weeks? II the people Of Miss
ouri would quit drinking intoxicants
for 40 days and plcsent tho sum saved to
tue school fund, we should have nearly
) millions dollars. Five million dollars
saved in 4 weeks. 1t took 40 years or
more to Gccumu aSe the school fund.
And an equal sum might be added to
thH school fund every 40 days In u
short time we would have several times
million dolars in our school fund.
Country schools could then run nine
months a year as most city schools are
doing. Townships could then have
their high schools without additional
cost to tho taxpayer. OF the school
fund how much you have TO say! or the
liquor tratic you say nothing. Is not
that straining at u gnai and swallowing
camel? Honorary Member

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

United States Department of Agricul-
ture, climate and crop bulletin of the
Weather Bureau, New Mexico sec
ton:
Santa Fe, n. M, June I0.-The past
week has been unusually warm and
dry, excepting scattered showers in
northern counties. The warm weather
following the good rains of last week
in northern sections has greatly i'm
proved both stock and crop conditions.
There is now plenty of irrigation water
in northern counties, and the rains
have put the soil into conjitich so that
a great deal of late planting of corn
and beans has recently been done OF
temporal lands. In southern sections,
on the other hand, there is some COM
plant of drought. especially in the
southwestern quarter, and in some To-
calities irrigation water is getting
scarce. The lower Rio Grande has
risen during the past week, and now
has plenty of water. There have been
rumors of cattle dying rapidly from the
drought in the vicinity of the ella for
est reserve, but the latest reports in
dictate that, as a rule, cattle are in fair
condition for the season of the year.
In northern sections, especially east of
Nllt 0dOltih mountain lhhStF 81 oDo 4
now well started, and cattle and sheep
are improving rapidly. Local hail
storms on the Atm did considerable
damage in places north of the Glorieta
Divide.
All irrigated crops are making very
satisfactory progress. First alfalfa
has been secured in southern counties.
and cutting is becoming general in
northern counties. The crop is very
poor in the northeast, where the spring
drought was severest. Corn, beans.
peas, etc, where not damaged by the
hail, are coming on rapidly, although
in most northern fields they are some
what backward. Cherries and apricots
are ripening in southern orchards, and
some early cherries are ripe in Sa1
Juan county. Strawberries of a fine
quality are in local northern markets
The following remarks are extracted
from the reports of correspondents:
Abiquiu, Rio Arriba County-Henry
Grant: The heavy rains on the first
days of June were a blessing to sheep
men and greaIIy benefited crops. The
Chama river was out of its banks.
Plenty of fruit in this vicinity, Alfalfa
is about ready to cut. Landing yielded
from so to So per cent.
Albert-H NJ. Hanson: The heavy
rains of last week are bringing out the
grass, and stock of all kinds are begin.
ming to improve. R%anching prospects
are now good. First crop of alfalfa
already in stack. Landing is finished
The best estimates place the seasons
yield at scarcely exceeding 40 per cent

Thirstina for Dog Blood.

There is much complaint by citizens
about reckless pistol shooting within
the city limits of Santa Fe. Sunday
a dog on the south side bit Miss T..
Hines in the arm. The owner of the
dog offered to take him outside of the
city limits and shoot him but DR.. ]. M.
DiaZ advised them to keep the dog ten
days longer to determine whether he
had the rabies. The dog was safely
chained to await developments. This
morning, however. parties who are
known commenced firing at the dog.
entering upon private premises to do
so. The first shot struck the dog in
the foot. the second struck a window
blind across the street. while a third
struck the dog, but did not kill him.
The parties then went home but re-
turned and fired three shots more at
the suffering and bowling dog. There
we're many children playing in the
neighborhood and ii is a wonder that
no one was injured. That kind of
criminal heedIessness should be stop
