THE SAME In NEW MEXICO.

During his eight years residence
in New Mexico, no single citizen has
done as much to bring capital into the
territory and to develop her industries
as has Hon. William 81. Andrews, who
will be the next delegate in congress
from New Mexico. LAS Vegas Optic.
This is exactly correct. Right here
it is we'll to remark that voters gener-
ally are invited to compare the record
of Senator W. H. Andrews, republican
candidate fo- delegate to congress with
that of George P. Money, democratic
candidate for delegate to congress,
since both came to the territory. Mr..
Andrews has brought millions of dol
lars of capital here for investment and
the people know it. The democratic
candidate has brought nothing. Al
buquerque Journal.
ldentically the situation in Arizona
on the same proposition, delegate to
congress. 1t seems strange that the
people are beginning to realize the
business end of politics, instead of the
political end. Nowadays a man must
be capable of doing something to war
rant his Office getting. 1t is about
time, and we trust that New Mexico
will send bona fide resident to the
white house, to keep company with
Mr.. Fowler of Arizona.

MAYER DOINGS
IN REAL ESTATE
Steady Purchases of Lots by Those
Who Are Impressed With Its De-
sirabIe Conditions for the Future.

Real estate transactions in the town
of Mayer have assumed somewhat of
an important regard of late. On
Thursday five lots we're sold and the
aggregate sum paid was over 81, 600.
The sales we're made to five different
individuals, and they make the state
ment that they will build homes on
each lot secured. The beginning of
operations on the Treadwell smelter
and the Rigby plant being guarantee
for the future is the stimulating influ-
ence behind the building up of this
new town. The town has also the best
water supply in the southwest, and To-
Gated as it is in very desirable eli
mate, it is being recognized also on
that line as an attractive place.
Mining activity adjacent to Mayer
is again assuming its old conditions,
and with the start it has and the per-
manency of its future, it should in a
few years hence have rating that will
give it material regard in Arizona
towns.
The movement inaugurated but a
few months ago to throw this place
open to settlement, has terminated
very satisfactorily to Mr.. Mayer, and
over forty lots have found purchasers
to date. The new brick plant is in
steady operation and in few months
some of the most substantial homes in
the county will be here found.

Suicide in Japan.

The ancient custom Of disposing or
ones troubles by suicide does not pre-
vail in Japan as much as formerly,
but compared with other countries the
number of those who annually take
their OWE lives seems very large.
Fifty years ago, when 4 man was IN
suited he killed himself Instead OF the
offende:, and the supreme vengeance
against an enemy WIS to commit sui
eide uron his doorstep. because thas
plAced ! curse upon him and his fam
iIy and his home forever that could
not be removed. Suicide was conSid-
cred all honorable death, much more
honorable than fighting duel. II was
also a sublime method Of showing
gratitude and affection. Many SER
want voluntarily followed his master,
as MANY a knight followed his daimlo
to the Japanese heaven. When nls-
sraced or convicted Or accused OF dis
honorable conduct. particularly among
the military element, suicide WAS Il
means of atonement and u penance
that sufficet for any crime. Officers IN
the army were given a choice between
suicide and court martial. Many OF
these IDEAS still cling to the oit-fash-
iored part of the population. particu-
larly in the interior Of the country.
The number Of suicides is actually
very large, and increasing.

in filth, so that the prevention Of the
trouble is plain to be seen. Investiga-,
ton will prove that the majority Of
the horses afflicted with thrush are
heavily fed and given little exercise,
and, as stated, stand in filth. While
there are many honest differences Of
opinion as to what material constitutes
the best floor for horse, it Is certain
that the floor must be kept reasonably
clean or the animal will contract dis
ease Of some kind. The best treat
ment for thrush is to cleanse the foot
thoroughly, soaking it we'll in water as
hot as the horse will stand, if neces-
sary. and then place calomel in all the
crevices of the frog, covering it with
oalum to hold it in place; this dressing
must be changed daily.
Place the horse in a large box stall
and provide a heavy bed of straw so
that there will be sort of cushion for
the feet at all times. While the horse
is in the stall and not fit to exercise a
great deal, cut the rations down, being
careful that the animal has sufficient
variety to keep the bowels in good
condition. AS soon as the animal can
be given exercise it should be taken
out of doors several times day. The
dressing should be faithfully applied
until the discharge Of matter ceases

Getting Rid of Pests.

cure One teaspoonful, of tartar
Semetic mixed with one teaspoonful OF
sugar, and put where ants are trouble
some, will drive them away in a day.
Fleas-Ttese may be driven away
by scattering either lime or cayenne
pepper in the places which they fire.
Quent. Oil of pennyroyal is also good.
Moths-These may be prevented by
the use Of mothballs, or bags made of
crushed lavender and lemon-verbena
with clover and other puEgent spice.
Powdered boraX, camphor and cedar
dust are all effective.
Flies and Mosquitoes-The best pre-
ventive is tight screens and constant
vigilance. Mosquitoes dislike lavender
and green walnut. Fly paper is made
as follows: Take equal parts Of n:elted
resin and castor oil, and spread while
warm on strong, thick paper. Or use
four ounces of quassia chips boiled in
one pint of water. When cold strain,
then add water to make one pint, and
two ounces of alcohol. Sweeten with
sugar, and pour in saucer.-Woman's

A Good EGG Preseryative.

IN giving the readers Of this depart
ment the benefit Of the method most
used for the preservation Of eggs, it is
done with the hope that the eggs thus
preserved will be used at home, or, II
sold, sold strictly on their merits. 1t is
the selling of preserved eggs as "strict-
ly fresh that has ruined the poultry
business of more than one man. IT one
has strictly fresh eggs that he can
guarantee in midwinter, sell them as
such and demand the highest price.
If the eggs offered are preserved, say
so. The best egg preservatiye now
known is water glass, or, in other
words, a solution Of silicate Of sodium
procurable at any drug store. Put the
solution in an earthen vessel, add
nine times its bulk of water, and put
in it as many eggs as the solution will
cover. Then place a cover over the
vessel and place it in a cool cellar.
Eggs preserved now in the manner
described will keep in good condition
for seven or eight months. 1t is nee
essary that the eggs be perfectly fresh
when they are put in the preserving
fluid, or they will not keep as long
as stated.

Farm Hfnts.

A cross-bred animal should never be
chosen as a breeder. .
There is no single breed that pos
sesses only good qualities.
Nothing so surely impoverishes the
farm as the selling Of hay.
With improved stock, to insure sue
cess, must come improved treatment.
Any kind of live stock will depre-
ciate in value when cut short in their
rationS.
Always sift coal ashes before putting
them in the dust, box for the use Of
poultry.
In bot weather especially, horses sub
ject to collie should be handled with
great care.
All things considered the best place
to put manure is on a freshly plowed
soil. Haul out as fast as made.
A little care in the matter Of water
ing and feeding horses will prevent
much sickness and consequent loss.
In breeding. other things being
equal, the more vigorous animal tends
to impress itself upon the progeny.

should be done than it is to demon

Oat Hay.
Farmers who intend making oat hay
should keep careful watch on the crop
that it does not become too mature.
For hay, oats should be harvested
when the grain is in the dough stage,
not when ripe enough to thresh. When
cut at this time there will be no dam
ger of losing any Of the grain, as it
will not shell, and the quail y Of straw
will also be worth much more as q
feed. The stems and leaves Of the
plant can all be saved and they will
cure into very good feed for almost any:
class of stock. OF course If the crop
is intended for seed or grain, it should
not be harvested until thoroughly ma
tured. It should be remembered, how
ever, that day or two Of nice grow
ing weather will make a great differ
ence in the condition of any crop, es-
pecially when near maturity. For
this reason we say, keep close tab upon
them, and no matter what. they are
to be harvested for, endeavor to do
the cutting at just the right period.
Weather conditions may sometimes in
terfere with ones harvest, and that, Of
course, cannot very we'll be helped,
but as far as possible every farmer
should make it point to have all con-
ditions under his control and then
see that everything is done exactly on
time. Every year there are many dol
lars worth Of crops lost by neglect in
harvesting them at just the right time.
Overripe crops, especially grains, are
always handled with great loss, even
at the best Be on time, and by so do
ing save pounds Of roughage feed when
in prime condition and every bushel Of
grain when mature, and when it will
cost the least to harvest.-Farmer's
Guide.
